Canonical directions

We can see the canonical directions of a particular adjustment by using the cd+  option of the SHOW:  command:

BD>show: cd+ tex2html_wrap_inline6116

Figure 14:  Belief grid

giving the output shown in figure 14.gif This shows two canonical directions, roughly tex2html_wrap_inline9554 and tex2html_wrap_inline9776 , defined as linear combinations of the quantities of interest. These directions (which were discussed further in section 4.4) have prior covariance zero and prior variance unity, and are output together with their canonical resolutions, tex2html_wrap_inline9778 and tex2html_wrap_inline9780 .
