Hi all Does anyone know how to invoke curve_fit with a variable number of parameters, e.g. a1 to a10 without writing it out,
e.g. def func2( x, a1,a2,a3,a4 ): # Bessel function tmp = scipy.special.j0( x[:,:] ) return np.dot( tmp[:,:] , np.array( [a1,a2,a3,a4] ) ### yi = M measurements (.e.g M=20) ### x = M (=20) rows of N (=4) columns popt = scipy.optimize.curve_fit( func2, x, yi ) I'd like to get *1 single vector* (in this case of size 4) of optimised A(i) values. The function I am trying to minimise (.e.g F(r) is a vector of 20 model measurements): F(r) = SUM_i_to_N [ A(i) * bessel_function_J0(i * r) ] Thanks, Siegfried Gonzi -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org https://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
