I have two columns in ascii-sheet :
x-col y-col
1 34
2 45
3 44
... and so on /experiment in radioactive measurement /
and the following program in a do-file:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
capture program drop nlexample
program nlexample
version 8
if "`1'" == "?" {
global S_1 "a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 a6"
global a1 = ...
global a2 = ....
global a3 = ....
global a4 = ....
global a5 = ...
global a6 = .... " good start-values "
exit
}
replace `1' = $a1*exp(-((x-$a3)/$a2)^2) + $a4*exp(-((x-$a6)/$a5)^2) '
fitting twopeak-curve
end
*twoway line y x
nl example y x,level(95) leave eps(1e-o5) nolog trace iterate(15000)
delta(4e-12)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I reached convergence and good values for a1,a2,...with "right"start-values
above after long 'trying' ......
my questions::
1.) which parameter is the typical Marquardt-Parameter ?
2.) although in reference-book:what does query-call and what does
calculation-call mean ?
3.)after calling the program above with >do name< and after getting my
results I print: predict myvar
then I have with the command :twoway line myvar x a passable
graph-fit,is this the correct way ?
