Hello All, I cant seem to do a trig regression in R. The equation is as follows : y = a+b*(sin((2*pi*x/360) - c))^2 a, b, c are coefs that I want. y, x are input vectors. The equation I put into R: lm(y ~ sin(2*pi*x/360)^2) This equation is missing the c and I dont get the right answer.
Take a look at section 2.3 of: http://www.statoek.wiso.uni-goettingen.de/veranstaltungen/zeitreihen/sommer03/ts_r_intro.pdf Or consider using time series or nonlinear modeling.
Also, I dont know how to plot the lm over the x values instead of the indices.
Without an example of your data and what you tried it is difficult to intuit what problems you may be facing.
