The Constellation Graph model (Sugano et al., 1988) and Trigonometric Series transformation model (Sugano, 1994) are proposed by a transformation of the explanatory variable space. However, those models are not linear with respect to parameters. So, the approximate values of the parameters are determined by the use of the Monte Carlo method. In this paper, we determine the parameters by the use of the alternative least square method for the model omitting the restriction of the weights. The model to obtain a predicted value utilizing weighted higher moments is called the Generalized Constellation Graph Transformation Model or GCGTM for short. We describe the method in detail and show some examples of application to air pollution data.
