Abstract

We employ a quadratic expansion to investigate the behaviour of the ordinary residuals in nonlinear regression. These residuals can produce misleading results when used in diagnostic methods analogous to those for linear regression. We suggest a new type of residual that overcomes many of the potential shortcomings of the ordinary residuals.
