Non-linear curvefitting in MATLAB

3 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hey guys! I'm some given some huge set of data. I am trying to fit a set of data into a model of functional form as described below:
z(x, y) = c0. * x^0 * y^2 + c1. * x^1 * y^1 + c2. * x^2 *y^1
where c0, c1, c2 are the coefficients to be found.
My attempt is to use the nlinfit function to solve it.
So far I have tried:
% i have just added a small portion of my data
a= [ 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001, 0.001,0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011, 0.011];
x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
y = x.* a;
z = [ -.304860225, .170315374, .343019354, .370114906, .373180536, .36719579, .363397853, .363417755, .366962504, .379710865, -.304860225, .170315374, .343019354, .370114906, .373180536, .36719579, .363397853, .363417755, .366962504, .379710865];
model= c0.* (x(:).^0).* (y(:).^2) + c1.* (x(:).^1).* (y(:).^1) + c2.* (x(:).^2).* (y(:).^0)
[c0 c1 c2] = [0.001 0.007 0.788]
C= nlinfit( [x,y], z, 'model', [0.001 0.007 0.788])
% Here x,y are independent variables and z is dependent variable.
How can one set these initial values for the coefficients? I'm not getting how to pass the arguments. I'm getting this error "??? Undefined function or variable 'c0' ". Please help!!!
Thanks in advance, Syeda

The solution is trivial because you have a linear system of equations for the 3 coefficients
A*c = b;
c = A\b
Hope this helps
Thank you for formally accepting my answer

It's really not ideal to fit polynomials bluntly using backslash. That's why MATLAB offers the more robust POLYFIT and why the File Exchange offers a variety of polynomial fitters.

yes!! My results are not accurate by using this method.

Using a nonlinear solver for a linear fitting problem seems like the wrong way to go. A better option might be

Dunno. Instead of 'x^2*y' maybe you should try either 'x*x*y' or 'y*x^2'.

No, it still gives error.
??? Undefined function or method 'polyfitn' for input arguments of type 'cell'
