A Note on the Wiener Filter for Vector Random Processes Authors: Adam Podhorski,Jesús Gutiérrez-Gutiérrez,Javier Del Ser,Inaki Iglesias In the present paper we compute the geometric minimum mean square error for the vector linear estimation problem. We do this by proving that the vector linear estimator that minimizes the mean square error (MSE) also minimizes the geometric MSE. Springer Berlin Heidelberg	2012-01-01
On Round-off Error for Adaptive Finite Element Methods Authors: Maciej Paszyński,Nathan Collier,David Pardo,David Pardo,Lisandro Dalcin,Julen Álvarez-Aramberri,Victor M. Calo AbstractRound-off error analysis has been historically studied by analyzing the condition number of the associated matrix. By controlling the size of the condition number, it is possible to guarantee a prescribed round-off error tolerance. However, the opposite is not true, since it is possible to… Elsevier BV	2012-01-01
