Remark 10 ( See [ 74 ] . ) The ridge regression is a way of regularizing the
solution of an ill-conditioned LS problem [ 114, pp. 190ff. ] ; for example, the
minimization of b Ax

2 ,where µ is a positive scalar, is solved by
+ µ x
x LS (µ) = A T A + µ I 1 A T b, and x LS (µ) 2 becomes small as µ becomes large.
But x TLS = x LS ( σ

n + 1
) , which implies that the TLS solution is a deregularizing
procedure, a reverse ridge regression. It implies that the condition of the TLS
problem is always worse than that of the corresponding LS problem.

This is a version of the TLS secular equation [ 74,98 ] .
Remark 12
If
v n + 1, n + 1 = 0 , the TLS problem is solvable and is then called
generic.
Remark 13 If σ p > σ p + 1 =···= σ n + 1 , any vector in the space created by the
right singular vectors associated with the smallest singular vector is a solution
of the TLS problem ( 1.9 ) ; the same happens in the case m < n ( underdetermined
system ) , since then the conditions σ m + 1 =···= σ n + 1 = 0 hold.
Remark 14 The TLS correction [ A ; b ] [ A ;
b ] F is always smaller in norm
than the LS correction b
b 2 .
1.5.1 OLS and TLS Geometric Considerations (Row Space)
The differences between TLS and OLS are considered from a geometric point of
view in the row space R r ( [ A ; b ] ) (see Figure 1.1 for the case n = 2).
If no errors are present in the data (EIV model), the set Ax b is compatible,
rank[ A ; b ] = n , and the space R r ( [ A ; b ] ) is n -dimensional (hyperplane). If errors
occur, the set is no longer compatible and the rows r 1 , r 2 , ... , r m are scattered
around the hyperplane. The normal of the hyperplane, corresponding to the minor
component of [ A ; b ], gives the corresponding solution as its intersection with the
hyperplane x n + 1 =− 1.
