numpy.polynomial.polynomial.Polynomial.fit — NumPy v1.11 Manual (original) (raw)

x : array_like, shape (M,)

x-coordinates of the M sample points (x[i], y[i]).

y : array_like, shape (M,) or (M, K)

y-coordinates of the sample points. Several data sets of sample points sharing the same x-coordinates can be fitted at once by passing in a 2D-array that contains one dataset per column.

deg : int or 1-D array_like

Degree(s) of the fitting polynomials. If deg is a single integer all terms up to and including the _deg_‘th term are included in the fit. For Numpy versions >= 1.11 a list of integers specifying the degrees of the terms to include may be used instead.

domain : {None, [beg, end], []}, optional

Domain to use for the returned series. If None, then a minimal domain that covers the points x is chosen. If[] the class domain is used. The default value was the class domain in NumPy 1.4 and None in later versions. The [] option was added in numpy 1.5.0.

rcond : float, optional

Relative condition number of the fit. Singular values smaller than this relative to the largest singular value will be ignored. The default value is len(x)*eps, where eps is the relative precision of the float type, about 2e-16 in most cases.

full : bool, optional

Switch determining nature of return value. When it is False (the default) just the coefficients are returned, when True diagnostic information from the singular value decomposition is also returned.

w : array_like, shape (M,), optional

Weights. If not None the contribution of each point(x[i],y[i]) to the fit is weighted by w[i]. Ideally the weights are chosen so that the errors of the productsw[i]*y[i] all have the same variance. The default value is None.

New in version 1.5.0.

window : {[beg, end]}, optional

Window to use for the returned series. The default value is the default class domain

New in version 1.6.0.
