Revision as of 22:24, 26 October 2008

This document contains examples of polynomial fitting, general linear regression, and nonlinear regression. In each section, there will be example code that may come in useful for later courses. The example code is based on the existence of a file in the same directory called {\tt Cantilever.dat} that contains two columns of data - the first is an amount of mass (in kg) placed at the end of a beam and the second is a displacement, measured in inches, at the end of the beam. For EGR 53, this file is:

Polynomial Fitting

Example Code

%% Initialize the workspace
clear; format short e
figure(1); clf

%% Load and manipulate the data
load Cantilever.dat

Force = Cantilever(:,1) * 9.81;
Displ = Cantilever(:,2) * 2.54 / 100;

%% Rename and create model data
x = Force;
y = Displ;
xmodel = linspace(min(x), max(x), 100);

%% Determine the polynomial coefficients
N = 1;
P = polyfit(x, y, N)

%% Generate estimates and model
yhat   = polyval(P, x);
ymodel = polyval(P, xmodel);

%% Calculate statistics
% Compute sum of the squares of the data residuals
St = sum(( y - mean(y) ).^2)

% Compute sum of the squares of the estimate residuals
Sr = sum(( y - yhat ).^2)

% Compute the coefficient of determination
r2 = (St - Sr) / St

%% Generate plots
plot(x,      y,      'k*',...
     x,      yhat,   'ko',...
     xmodel, ymodel, 'k-');
 xlabel('Independent Value')
 ylabel('Dependent Value')

Nonlinear Regression

Example Code

In the code below, note that the use of the variable fSSR was taken from Section 14.5 of the Chapra book[1].

%% Initialize the workspace
clear; format short e
figure(1); clf

%% Load and manipulate the data
load Cantilever.dat

Force = Cantilever(:,1) * 9.81;
Displ = Cantilever(:,2) * 2.54 / 100;

%% Rename and create model data
x = Force;
y = Displ;
xmodel = linspace(min(x), max(x), 100);

%% Define model equation and initial guesses
model = 'linear'
switch model
    case 'linear'
        yeqn = @(coefs, x) coefs(1)*x.^1 + coefs(2)*x.^0;
        InitGuess = [0 0]
    case 'trig with offset'
        yeqn = @(coefs, x) coefs(1)*cos(x*coefs(3)) + coefs(2)*sin(x*coefs(3)) + coefs(4);
        InitGuess = [0 0 100 0]
    otherwise
        error('Don''t know the model...')
end

%% Determine the function coefficients
fSSR = @(coefs, x, y) sum(( y - yeqn(coefs, x) ).^2)
[MyCoefs, Sr] = fminsearch(@(MyCoefsDummy) fSSR(MyCoefsDummy, x, y), InitGuess)

%% Generate estimates and model
yhat   = yeqn(MyCoefs, x);
ymodel = yeqn(MyCoefs, xmodel);

%% Calculate statistics
% Compute sum of the squares of the data residuals
St = sum(( y - mean(y) ).^2)

% Compute sum of the squares of the estimate residuals
Sr = sum(( y - yhat ).^2)

% Compute the coefficient of determination
r2 = (St - Sr) / St

%% Generate plots

     x,      yhat,   'ko',...
     xmodel, ymodel, 'k-');
