— THE EXPONENTIAL MODEL AND 
OBSERVED DATA 
ESTIMATION OF THE PARAMETERS OF THE EXPONENTIAL 
MODEL 
320. The exponential model contains only two parameters, 
k and O,. 
The estimate of the value of % is derived in the same way 
as in the general model. 
Estimation of ©, 
321. We have found the relation 
321-1) 
ef 
I—7 Ÿ 
with y=C/R (}). 
Thus ©, depends only in y and 7 and this relation holds 
whatever the value of p. 
Methods of estimating y and ¢ are given in my Tokyo 
monograph and in mv New York lecture (2) (3). 
Relation (251-13).
