I have a Least Square Estimation problem which took me a long time but
still couldn't figure out the the method to solve it. I'm sure that
there is no expilict solution, what I want to know is the computer
searching algorithm. Could somebody help me?
The problem is to minimize the next function:
\sum_{s} ||b_{s} - A_{s} *B *c_{s} ||^{2}
where b_{s}: vector of T by 1,(T is very large, could be thousands), known
A_{s}: Matrix of T by m, known
B: Matrix of m by n,(m > n, m:n could be 100:5), unkown.
c_{s}: vector of n by 1, unknown.
\sum_{s} means sum over s, s is the foot note.
Any helpful suggestion is appreciated.
