Data Driven Fitting with MATLAB
In this webinar, you will learn how to do data driven fitting with MathWorks products.
Data driven fitting derives all of the information required to generate a model directly from the data set. Data driven fitting is also referred to as “black box” modeling and nonparametric fitting.
Applied examples from the webinar include:
- Comparing the accuracy of different fitting techniques
- Using back-testing to measure the accuracy of your model
- Generating confidence intervals with bootstrap
- Using cross validation to avoid overfitting
Key analytical techniques include:
- Neural Networks
- Boosted and bagged decision trees
- Localized regression
- Smoothing splines
