Sequential ridge regression

A sequential algorithm which closely approximates ridge regression is introduced, and it is pointed out that the desired sequential ridge estimator can be obtained by properly choosing the free parameters of a startup technique for ordinary sequential least squares estimation. The derivation of this result is trivial; however, since no matrix inversions are needed for its implementation, this algorithm is of practical importance     

Starting to partner with NASA in space and Earth science

NASA research programs offer many opportunities for productive partnerships with investigators in other countries. While spacecraft projects are complex and very expensive, there are other, lower-cost partnerships that can yield important scientific results and offer excellent opportunities for building up new space and Earth science programs and for training new researchers.
