Method Detail

create

public static SimpleCurveFitter create(ParametricUnivariateFunction f,
                                       double[] start)

Creates a curve fitter. The maximum number of iterations of the optimization algorithm is set to Integer.MAX_VALUE.

Parameters:

f - Function to fit.

start - Initial guess for the parameters. Cannot be null. Its length must be consistent with the number of parameters of the function to fit.

Returns:

a curve fitter.

Parameters:

newStart - new start point (initial guess)

Returns:

a new instance.

withMaxIterations

public SimpleCurveFitter withMaxIterations(int newMaxIter)

Specified by:

getProblem in class AbstractCurveFitter

Parameters:

observations - Sample points.

Returns:

the least squares problem to use for fitting the curve to the given points.
