We consider the construction of rational approximations to given power series whose coefficients are vectors. The approximants are in the form of vector-valued continued fractions which may be used to obtain vector Pade
approximants using recurrence... Read More about Vector continued fraction algorithms..

On the algebraic foundations of the vector epsilon-algorithm. (1995)
Book Chapter
Roberts, D. E. (1995). On the algebraic foundations of the vector epsilon-algorithm. In R. Ablamowicz, & P. Lounesto (Eds.), Clifford algebras and spinor structures: A special volume dedicated to the memory of Albert Crumeyrolle (1919-1992) (343-361). Kluwer Academic

We review the Clifford algebraic foundations of versions of the vector epsilon-algorithm. This involves the formation of rational approximants to vector-valued functions defined by a power series. We summarise their properties and demonstrate how a s... Read More about On the algebraic foundations of the vector epsilon-algorithm..

Modelling and Forecasting Human Populations using Sigmoid Models (1987)
Thesis
Raeside, R. Modelling and Forecasting Human Populations using Sigmoid Models. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/1053286

Early this century "S-shaped" curves, sigmoids, gained
populari ty among demographers. However, by 1940, the approach
had "fallen out of favour", being criticised for giving po,or
results and having no theoretical validity. It was also
considered... Read More about Modelling and Forecasting Human Populations using Sigmoid Models.
