Fitting a Custom Sigmoid
显示 更早的评论
Hello,
I have a set of data that decays in a sigmoidal fashion. I believe it should be a good fit to a function of the form shown in the first screenshot, but when I use the Custom Fit feature in the Curvefitting App matlab gives a -Rsq so something is clearly going wrong. I have attached a screenshot of the attempted fit and result as well. I would really appreciate any advice or input as to why this may not be working and alternatives I could try.
Thank you!

OK, but you forgot to attach your data. I'll check back later for it.
Why don't I get that plot:
% Create the X coordinates from 0 to 16 every 0.25 units.
X = 0 : 0.25 : 16;
% Define coefficients and function that the X values obey.
a1 = 0.9157 % Arbitrary sample values I picked.
a2 = 0.6557
Y = a1 * exp(-a2 .* exp(X)); % Get a vector. No noise in this Y yet.
plot(X, Y, 'b.-', 'LineWidth', 2, 'MarkerSize', 20);
grid on;

Hi Image Analyst,
Thanks for taking a look! If you use a very small a2, eg a2 = .001, then the plot looks as shown. I tried supplying small initial guesses for a2 in hopes to achieve this but no luck. I have attached my data as well. Would really appreciate any advice.

Hi Alex,
This is so helpful, thank you! I am still having issues achieving a similar fit on my own, though. I tried both curvefit app and fitting in my code, but neither is working out. Do you by chance see a glaring mistake in my approach? I've also attached a plot of the bad fit I get. Thanks again so much- I'm quite stuck.
Bad fit:
a1 = 0.6991
a2 = 0.8909
a3 = 6.233
a4 = 0.5472
The function:
function y = sigmoidfit(x,a1,a2,a3, a4)
y = a1 * exp(-a2*exp(a4.*x))+a3
end
_________________________________________________________________
%The fit:
fout = fittype( "sigmoidfit(x, a1, a2, a3, a4)", 'independent', {'x'}, 'coefficient', {'a1','a2','a3', 'a4'} )
%options = fitoptions(fout);
%options.StartPoint = [2.46665608498939, .0000000000004, 1.85195743324274, 5.25959927640292];
result = fit(xfitting(:),S_nonresistantdecline(:),fout)
figure;
plot(result, xfitting(:),S_nonresistantdecline(:))

Hi, Jane, the above results posted are obtained from another software of "1stOpt". For the fitting function of "y=a1*exp(-a2*exp(a4*x))+a3", it looks simple, but seems to be very difficulty for Matlab, either cftool or lsqcurvefit/nlinfit, to get proper outcomes.
