Abstract
In this paper, we supply a mathematical model describing the longitudinal data based on linear recursive sequences. Together with the matrix aspect of the longitudinal data we approach the multidimensional data. Moreover, we submit these data to an analysis, taking care of their specic aspects. Comparison with other model and examples of real data are discussed.
Keywords: Longitudinal data, Fibonacci sequences model, minimum square criterium
