Abstract

We consider in this paper the following nonlinear regression model $$ (1.1) y_t = f(x_t, \theta_o) + \in_t, t = 1, \ldots, n, $$ where $y_t$ is the tth response, $x_t$ is m-vector imput variable, $\theta_o$ is a p-vector of unknown parameter belong to a parameter space $\Theta, f:R^m \times \Theta \ to R^1$ is a nonlinear known function, and $\in_t$ are independent unobservable random errors with finite second moment.
