The aim of the present study was to assess the construct validity of five nutrient profiling systems, using diet modeling with linear programming for designing healthy and unhealthy diets. 3.

In particular, if the linear regression relation contains p parameters, minimizing the sum of the absolute value of the "vertical" deviations from the regression line is shown to reduce to a p ...
