Curve Fitting Toolbox
Fit curves and surfaces to data using regression, interpolation, and smoothing
Have questions? Contact Sales.
Curve Fitting Toolbox provides an app and functions for fitting curves and surfaces to data. The toolbox lets you perform exploratory data analysis, preprocess and post-process data, compare candidate models, and remove outliers. You can conduct regression analysis using the library of linear and nonlinear models provided or specify your own custom equations. The library provides optimized solver parameters and starting conditions to improve the quality of your fits. The toolbox also supports nonparametric modeling techniques, such as splines, interpolation, and smoothing.
After creating a fit, you can apply a variety of post-processing methods for plotting, interpolation, and extrapolation; estimating confidence intervals; and calculating integrals and derivatives.
Curve Fitter App
Interactively fit data to curves and surfaces, visualize plots, and understand fitting statistics using the Curve Fitter app. Explore various fitting methods and options through the app and generate MATLAB code for reusability and automation.
Regression
Model a continuous response variable as a function of predictors using linear and nonlinear regression techniques, including custom equations with adequate options to optimize solver parameters and starting conditions to improve fit quality.
Interpolation
Estimate values between known data points using Interpolation techniques. Extrapolate values outside the fitting data domain for interpolant curves and surfaces.
Smoothing
Reduce noise and remove seasonal trends in the data set by applying smoothing techniques and other methods such as moving average, Savitzky-Golay filter, and Lowess models or by fitting a smoothing spline.
Splines
Fit various splines to data, including cubic and smoothing splines with various end conditions, for curves, surfaces, and higher dimensional objects. Control advanced spline operations, including break/knot manipulation, optimal knot placement, and data-point weighting.
Fit Analysis and Export to Simulink
Analyze the fitted model by exploring and customizing plots, estimating confidence intervals, and calculating integrals and derivatives. Export fitted models as Simulink lookup table blocks or fitted objects.
Product Resources:
“MATLAB enabled us, as geologists, to use our expertise in predictive frameworks, analytics, and analog matching to implement algorithms that are unique in our industry. With the help of MathWorks consultants, we then deployed those algorithms as an easy-to-use application to our colleagues worldwide.”
