Fitting of a noisy curve by an asymmetrical peak model, with an iterative process (Gauss–Newton algorithm with variable damping factor α).Curve fitting [1] [2] is the process of constructing a curve, or mathematical function, that has the best fit to a series of data points, [3] possibly subject to constraints.
A drawback of polynomial bases is that the basis functions are "non-local", meaning that the fitted value of y at a given value x = x 0 depends strongly on data values with x far from x 0. [9] In modern statistics, polynomial basis-functions are used along with new basis functions, such as splines, radial basis functions, and wavelets. These ...
Linear least squares (LLS) is the least squares approximation of linear functions to data. It is a set of formulations for solving statistical problems involved in linear regression, including variants for ordinary (unweighted), weighted, and generalized (correlated) residuals.
The Weierstrass approximation theorem states that for every continuous function f(x) defined on an interval [a,b], there exists a set of polynomial functions P n (x) for n=0, 1, 2, ..., each of degree at most n, that approximates f(x) with uniform convergence over [a,b] as n tends to infinity, that is,
In applied mathematics, the non-uniform discrete Fourier transform (NUDFT or NDFT) of a signal is a type of Fourier transform, related to a discrete Fourier transform or discrete-time Fourier transform, but in which the input signal is not sampled at equally spaced points or frequencies (or both).
The determinant of a square Vandermonde matrix is called a Vandermonde polynomial or Vandermonde determinant.Its value is the polynomial = < ()which is non-zero if and only if all are distinct.
In mathematics, the polylogarithm (also known as Jonquière's function, for Alfred Jonquière) is a special function Li s (z) of order s and argument z. Only for special values of s does the polylogarithm reduce to an elementary function such as the natural logarithm or a rational function .
The Steinhart–Hart equation is a model relating the varying electrical resistance of a semiconductor to its varying temperatures.The equation is = + + (), where is the temperature (in kelvins),
