Constructor Detail

PolynomialFitter

public PolynomialFitter(MultivariateVectorOptimizer optimizer)

Deprecated.

Simple constructor.

Parameters:

optimizer - Optimizer to use for the fitting.

Method Detail

fit

public double[] fit(int maxEval,
           double[] guess)

Deprecated.

Get the coefficients of the polynomial fitting the weighted data points. The degree of the fitting polynomial is guess.length - 1.

Parameters:

guess - First guess for the coefficients. They must be sorted in increasing order of the polynomial's degree.

maxEval - Maximum number of evaluations of the polynomial.

Returns:

the coefficients of the polynomial that best fits the observed points.

Throws:

TooManyEvaluationsException - if the number of evaluations exceeds maxEval.

ConvergenceException - if the algorithm failed to converge.
