inversion of partitioned matrices; Rohde formula; twoepoch regression model; useful and nuisance parameters; best linear estimators of the mean value parameter
Summary:
The estimation procedures in the multiepoch (and specially twoepoch) linear regression models with the nuisance parameters that were described in [2], Chapter 9, frequently need finding the inverse of a $3 \times 3$ partitioned matrix. We use different kinds of such inversion in dependence on simplicity of the result, similarly as in well known Rohde formula for $2\times 2$ partitioned matrix. We will show some of these formulas, also methods how to get the other formulas, and then we applicate the formulas in estimation of the mean value parameters in the twoepoch linear regression model with the nuisance parameters.
