Notice that the second-degree fit roughly follows the basic shape of the data, but does not capture the smooth curve on which the data seems to lie. There appears to be a pattern in the residuals, which indicates that a different model might be necessary. A fifth-degree polynomial shown next does a better job of following the fluctuations in the data.
Repeat the exercise, this time using a fifth-degree polynomial from polyfit. Evaluate the polynomial at t2 and plot the fit on top of the data in a new figure window. If you are trying to model a physical situation, it is always important to consider whether a model of a specific order is meaningful in your situation. This example shows how to fit data with a linear model containing nonpolynomial terms.
When a polynomial function does not produce a satisfactory model of your data, you can try using a linear model with nonpolynomial terms. For example, consider the following function that is linear in the parameters a 0 , a 1 , and a 2 , but nonlinear in the t data:. You can compute the unknown coefficients a 0 , a 1 , and a 2 by constructing and solving a set of simultaneous equations and solving for the parameters.
The following syntax accomplishes this by forming a design matrix , where each column represents a variable used to predict the response a term in the model and each row corresponds to one observation of those variables.
This example shows how to use multiple regression to model data that is a function of more than one predictor variable. When y is a function of more than one predictor variable, the matrix equations that express the relationships among the variables must be expanded to accommodate the additional data. The reason the degree is equal to one is that the "x" in the equation is raised to the power of one it has an exponent of one.
This equation is a second degree equation because the highest exponent on the "x" is equal to 2. Polyfit is a Matlab function that computes a least squares polynomial for a given set of data. Polyfit generates the coefficients of the polynomial, which can be used to model a curve to fit the data. Polyval evaluates a polynomial for a given set of x values.
Plot the results against the original years. Create a few vectors of sample data points x,y. Fit a first degree polynomial to the data. Evaluate the fitted polynomial p at the points in x. Plot the resulting linear regression model with the data.
Use polyfit to fit a first degree polynomial to the data. Specify two outputs to return the coefficients for the linear fit as well as the error estimation structure. Evaluate the first-degree polynomial fit in p at the points in x. Specify the error estimation structure as the third input so that polyval calculates an estimate of the standard error.
The standard error estimate is returned in delta. Query points, specified as a vector. The points in x correspond to the fitted function values contained in y. If x is not a vector, then polyfit converts it into a column vector x :.
Warning messages result when x has repeated or nearly repeated points or if x might need centering and scaling. Fitted values at query points, specified as a vector. The values in y correspond to the query points contained in x. If y is not a vector, then polyfit converts it into a column vector y :. Degree of polynomial fit, specified as a positive integer scalar. Least-squares fit polynomial coefficients, returned as a vector.
