Ringkasan	Nonlinear Weighted Least Squares combines the flexibility of nonlinear regression with the variance-stabilizing power of observation-level weights. It minimises a weighted sum of squared residuals around a user-specified nonlinear mean function, making it the method of choice when the relationship is inherently nonlinear and error variance differs across observations.	Generalized Least Squares (GLS) is a linear regression estimator that extends ordinary least squares to handle situations where the error terms are correlated or have non-constant variance (heteroscedasticity). Introduced by Alexander Craig Aitken in 1935, GLS achieves the Best Linear Unbiased Estimator (BLUE) under a general error covariance structure by weighting observations according to their precision, providing a theoretical bridge between OLS and modern linear mixed models.	Ordinary Least Squares is the classical linear regression method that explains a continuous outcome as a linear combination of predictors. It estimates the coefficients by minimising the sum of squared residuals, and under the Gauss-Markov assumptions these estimates are the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE).
