β¦ Synopsis
The derivation of the asymptotic normality LSE's under univariate non-linear regression models is presented based on the weak convergence of the natural random ΓΏeld generated by the sum of squared residuals. Some examples, showing that neglecting the condition of uniform convergence leads to serious errors are presented. This approach is analogous to that of Le Cam's for the case of a known smooth family of distributions.

A new approach founded on Radial Basis Functions (RBF) and Partial Least Squares (PLS) is proposed to model non-linear chemical systems. Its performance is demonstrated for two simulated examples and compared with those of Multilayer Feedforward Network (MLP), Radial Basis Function Network (RBFN), a
