m Least-squares error: Oops, «nowrap» isn't supposed to go inside LaTeX math
Line 61: Line 61:
We can replace the 1 with x, vary x and ask, "By at least how much do the deltas have to be off for any x?"

Rewriting a bit, if 1:''r''<sub>1</sub>:''r''<sub>2</sub>:...:''r''<sub>''n''</sub> has delta signature {{nowrap|+ε<sub>1</sub> +ε<sub>2</sub> ... +ε<sub>''n''</sub>}} (where the chord is written to start on 1, i.e. 1:1+ε<sub>1</sub>:...), let <math>D_i = \sum_{k=1}^i \delta_i</math> (the ''target'' delta signature) and <math>E_i = \sum_{k=1}^i \epsilon_i</math> (the ''approximating'' delta signature). Then the resulting linear least-squares optimization problem is
