TY - JOUR T1 - A hybrid method for nonlinear least squares problems AU - Z. Liu & L.

With the special structure of the method, a new switch is proposed to form a hybrid method. Numerical experiments show that this method is feasible and effective for zero-residual, small-residual and large-residual problems.
