Abstract
We develop a new algorithm for solving Toeplitz linear least squares problems. The Toeplitz matrix is first embedded into a circulant matrix. The linear least squares problem is then transformed into a discrete least squares approximation problem for polynomial vectors. Our implementation shows that the normwise backward stability is independent of the condition number of the Toeplitz matrix.
