Functions

Details

Collection of fitting functions

fits.demo_ransac()[source]

Find the best-fit circle in an image, using the RANSAC algorithm

fits.fit_circle(x, y)[source]

Determine the best-fit circle to given datapoints.

Parameters:

x : array (N,)

x-values.

y : array (N,)

corresponding y-values.
Returns:

center : array (2,)

x/y coordinates of center of the circle

radius : float

Circle radius.

Examples

>>> r = 2
>>> center = np.r_[5,5]
>>> theta = np.r_[0:2*np.pi:10j]
>>> x = r*np.cos(theta)+center[0]
>>> y = r*np.sin(theta)+center[1]
>>> cFit,rFit = thLib.fits.fit_circle(x,y)
fits.fit_ellipse(x, y)[source]

Ellipse fit by Taubin’s Method

Parameters:

x : array

x-coordinates of the ellipse points

y : array

y-coordinates of the ellipse points
Returns:

A : array

Ellipse parameters A = [a b c d e f] is the vector of algebraic parameters of thefitting ellipse: ax^2 + bxy + cy^2 +dx + ey + f = 0 The vector A is normed, so that ||A||=1.

Notes

Among fast non-iterative ellipse fitting methods, this is perhaps the most accurate and robust.

This method fits a quadratic curve (conic) to a set of points; if points are better approximated by a hyperbola, this fit will return a hyperbola. To fit ellipses only, use “Direct Ellipse Fit”.

fits.fit_exp(tFit, yFit, plotFlag=False)[source]

Calculates best-fit parameters for the exponential decay to an offset. This can serve as an example for a general non-linear fit.

Parameters:

tFit : array (N,)

Time values.

yFit : array (N,)

Function values
Returns:

offset : float

Function offset/bias.

amp : float

Amplitude of exponential function

tau : float

Decay time.

Examples

>>> t = np.arange(10)
>>> tau = 2.
>>> amp = 1.
>>> offset = 2.
>>> x = offset + amp*np.exp(-t/tau)    
>>> fitted =  thLib.fits.fit_exp(t,x)
fits.fit_line(x, y, alpha=0.05, newx=[], plotFlag=False)[source]

Linear regression fit.

Parameters:

x : ndarray

Input / Predictor.

y : ndarray

Input / Estimator.

alpha : float

Confidence limit [default=0.05]

newx : float or ndarray

Values for which the fit and the prediction limits are calculated (optional)

plotFlag: int, optional

1 = plot, 0 = no_plot [default]
Returns:

a : float

Intercept

b : float

Slope

ci : ndarray

Lower and upper confidence interval for the slope

info : dictionary

contains return information on - residuals - var_res - sd_res - alpha - tval - df

newy : list(ndarray)

Predictions for (newx, newx-ciPrediction, newx+ciPrediction)

Notes

Example data and formulas are taken from D. Altman, “Practical Statistics for Medicine”

Examples

>>> x = np.r_[0:10:11j]
>>> y = x**2
>>> (a,b,(ci_a, ci_b),_) = thLib.fits.fit_line(x,y)    
Summary: a=-15.0000+/-12.4590, b=10.0000+/-2.1060
Confidence intervals: ci_a=(-27.4590 - -2.5410), ci_b=(7.8940 - 12.1060)
Residuals: variance = 95.3333, standard deviation = 9.7639
alpha = 0.050, tval = 2.2622, df=9
fits.fit_sin(tList, yList, freq)[source]

Fit a sine wave with a known frequency to a given set of data.

y = amplitude * sin(2*pi*freq * tList + phase*pi/180) + bias

Parameters:

yList : array

datapoints

tList : float

time base, in sec

freq : float

in Hz
Returns:

phase : float

in degrees

amplitude : float

bias : float

Examples

>>> np.random.seed(1234)
>>> t = np.arange(0,10,0.1)
>>> x = 3 + 4*np.sin(2*np.pi*t + 5*np.pi/180) + np.random.randn(len(t))
>>> (phase, amp, offset) = thLib.fits.fit_sin(t, x, 1)
fits.regress(y, X, alpha=0.05, intercept=True)[source]

Multilinear regression and confidence intervals. Note that by default, an intercept is added to the design matrix!

Parameters:

X : ndarray (N,) or (N,p)

predictors at each of N observations

y : ndarray(N,)

observed responses

alpha : float, optional

Defines the 100*(1-alpha)% confidence level in ci. Default alpha=0.05

intercept : boolean

If ‘True’, an intercept is automatically added to the design matrix. If ‘False’, the behavior is like the Matlab “regress” function, and no intercept is added.
Returns:

fit : float

best fit intercept and regression parameters

ci : ndarray (2,)

confidence intervals for the coefficient estimates at the given alpha level (default: 95%-level)

>>> y = np.array([1, 3, 11, 13])
>>> (fit,ci) = thLib.fits.regress(y,x)    

>>> X = np.random.randn(10,2)
>>> mat = np.hstack( (np.ones( (len(X),1) ), X) )
>>> pars = np.c_[[2, 4, 5]]
>>> y = mat.dot(pars)
