Excluding data on log scale
显示 更早的评论
Hi!
i have noisy data, and i want to fit a plot through it. i need to exclude some data points in the outliers, but i can recognize them only in the log scale plot.
is there a way to do it ?
I know that you can graphically exclude data in cftool, but it's not possible to show the data in log scale there.
Thank you

The "trick" w/ cftool is to "Print to figure" from the File Menu wherein you can use the figure editor to change axes properties. Why it's not internal to the tool is, I suppose, simply one of complexity/newer implementation doesn't yet have all the bells and whistles. I note it takes quite a long time to load already here in R2012b.
Alternatively, of course, you can use a custom fit and take log(x) on linear axes to achieve same effect albeit w/o the convenience of the scale being in original units.

Yes, best you can do is use the other figure to identify which points you want excluded. As noted, it's an imperfect tool at best.

I'd probably approach the problem by using a log or semilog fit whichever it is that works and then compute the residuals and look for outliers numerically. A useful background article on the subject...
