This paper introduces the alternating conditional
expectation (ACE) algorithm of Breiman and
Friedman (J Am Stat Assoc 80:580?619, 1985) for estimating
the transformations of a response and a set of
predictor variables in multiple regression problems in
hydrogeology. The proposed nonparametric approach
can be applied easily for estimating the optimal transformations
of different hydrogeological data to obtain
maximum correlation between observed variables. The
approach does not require a priori assumptions of a
functional form, and the optimal transformations are
derived solely based on the data set. The advantages
and applicability of this new approach to solve different
multiple regression problems in hydrogeology or in
Earth Sciences are illustrated by means of theoretical
investigations and case studies. It is demonstrated that
the ACE method has certain advantages in some fitting
problems of hydrogeology over the traditional multiple
regression. Based on our knowledge, this is the first application
of the ACE algorithm to analyze and interpret
groundwater data.
