Replace Fitted Curve with Optimized Lookup Table
This example shows how to approximate a fitted curve or surface and generate a lookup table.
In this example, you fit a surface to two-dimensional data then use the Lookup Table Optimizer command line interface to approximate the fitted curve with a lookup table.
Fit Surface to Data
Load the data set sample_dataset, which contains data that shows the relationship between engine speed, fuel rate, and torque.
load sample_datasetTwo variables are created in the workspace. The inputs variable is two-dimensional data. The targets variable is a column vector.
Use the fit function to fit a polynomial surface to these two variables. Specify the second-degree polynomial function to fit as 'poly21'.
f = fit(inputs,targets,'poly21')f =
Linear model Poly21:
f(x,y) = p00 + p10*x + p01*y + p20*x^2 + p11*x*y
Coefficients (with 95% confidence bounds):
p00 = 1539 (599.4, 2479)
p10 = -89.93 (-126.3, -53.61)
p01 = -2.532 (-3.983, -1.08)
p20 = -0.02819 (-0.04941, -0.006961)
p11 = 0.1511 (0.09482, 0.2074)
Plot the fit and the data.
plot(f,inputs,targets)
Approximate Surface
Approximate the surface with an optimized lookup table. Create a FunctionApproximation.Problem object and specify the fitted surface curve f as the function to approximate. Set the lower and upper limits to be the range of the input values.
problem = FunctionApproximation.Problem ('f','InputLowerBounds',min(inputs),'InputUpperBounds',max(inputs))
problem =
1x1 FunctionApproximation.Problem with properties:
FunctionToApproximate: [1x1 sfit]
NumberOfInputs: 2
InputTypes: ["numerictype('double')" "numerictype('double')"]
InputLowerBounds: [14.4000 576.2000]
InputUpperBounds: [77.5000 661.5000]
OutputType: "numerictype('double')"
Options: [1x1 FunctionApproximation.Options]
You can edit the FunctionApproximation.Options object to specify additional constraints to use in the lookup table optimization process. Specify the word lengths and the maximum time to find a solution.
problem.Options.WordLengths = [8,32]; problem.Options.MaxTime = 240;
Use the solve method to create an optimized lookup table approximation. The solve method returns a FunctionApproximation.LUTSolution object.
solution = solve(problem)
