Hello everyone,
I hope you can help me.
I have a set of measured values (vector x) and estimated values from another parameter y (vector z) of 16 subjects (so 16 vectors of measured values and 16 of estimated values). The estimated data were obtained from a regression model derived from the data set (y vs x). This model has a polynomial form (y=-a x^2+bx-c ) with a, b and c being known. I would like to obtain a better model by minimising the sum of squared residuals (RSS) (sum(x-z)^2) of all subjects by automatically modifying the coefficients of the polynomial model. Is there an automatic method in matlab that returns the best combination of the coefficients of the polynomial that gives me the lowest RSS value?
N.B.
I am not starting from the data to develop the model, I already have a model (y=-a x^2+bx-c ), I would just like to modify the coefficients based on the estimates obtained by using it. I would like to keep the combination of coefficients that minimised the difference between the measured and estimated data.
I hope I have explained myself well.
Thank you in advance for your help!
