VirtualMatrix.PolynomialFit(Variable, Variable) Method

Top 

Description

Uses Singular Value Decomposition to compute the coefficients of a polynomial to best fit the data set defined by the nx2 calling matrix.

 

Timing Precision Mode

This page describes functionality in millisecond timing precision mode. Millisecond timing precision mode is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. We recommend that you migrate your Mission Plans to nanosecond timing precision mode.

Method Signature

VirtualMatrix.PolynomialFit(

Variable polynomialDegree,


Variable rSquared)

 

 

Arguments

polynomialDegree


Description:

The degree of the polynomial to fit to the data.

Valid Range:

polynomialDegree > 0

 

 

rSquared


Description:

The coefficient of determination, which measures the quality of the polynomial fit to the data. The value has a range from 0 to 1, with 1 indicating a perfect fit.

Valid Range:

rSquared ≥ 0

 

 

 

Return Value

Type:

Matrix of number

 

 

Returns a row matrix of the polynomial coefficients in order of highest to lowest degree. The number of columns of the matrix will be polynomialDegree + 1.

 

Syntax

myMatrix1 = [1,2; 3,4].PolynomialFit(myVariable1, myVariable2);
