Tikhonov Regularization - History

History

Tikhonov regularization has been invented independently in many different contexts. It became widely known from its application to integral equations from the work of Tikhonov and David L. Phillips. Some authors use the term Tikhonov–Phillips regularization. The finite dimensional case was expounded by Arthur E. Hoerl, who took a statistical approach, and by Manus Foster, who interpreted this method as a Wiener–Kolmogorov filter. Following Hoerl, it is known in the statistical literature as ridge regression.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Boys forget what their country means by just reading “the land of the free” in history books. Then they get to be men, they forget even more. Liberty’s too precious a thing to be buried in books.
    Sidney Buchman (1902–1975)

    I believe my ardour for invention springs from his loins. I can’t say that the brassiere will ever take as great a place in history as the steamboat, but I did invent it.
    Caresse Crosby (1892–1970)

    All history is a record of the power of minorities, and of minorities of one.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
