Infinity Pharmaceuticals Standardizes on MATLAB® for Drug Discovery Data Analysis

"With MATLAB, we reduced our development time significantly. That has resulted in an annual savings of $100,000." - Dennis Underwood, Infinity Pharmaceuticals

Horizon Wind Energy Develops Revenue Forecasting and Risk Analysis Tools for Wind Farms

"The tools that we developed with MATLAB and MATLAB Compiler are much more reliable, scalable, and maintainable than our spreadsheet-based approach. We can sleep at night because we know the tools will work, we can add new capabilities and data inputs, and we can update the production system without getting IT involved." - Manuel Arancibia, Horizon Wind Energy

Curve Fitting Toolbox

Description

Postprocessing Analysis

Once you have selected the curve or surface that best describes your data series you can perform postprocessing analysis. Curve Fitting Toolbox enables you to:

  •     Create plots
  •     Use your model to estimate values (evaluation)
  •     Calculate confidence intervals
  •     Create prediction bounds
  •     Determine the area under your curve (integration)
  •     Calculate derivatives

 

Postprocessing Analysis51110 wm cft3 fig17 w

Postprocessing analysis with the Curve Fitting Tool, which automatically creates a scatter plot of the raw data along with the fitted curve. The first and second derivatives of the fitted curve are also displayed.


The following examples show how postprocessing at the command line applies intuitive commands to the objects created from a fitting operation:

  •     Evaluation: EnergyConsumption = fittedmodel(X, Y)
  •     Plotting: EnergySurface = plot(fittedmodel)
  •     Integration: Volume_Under_Surface = quad2d(fittedmodel, Min_X, Max_X, Min_Y, Max_Y)
  •     Differentiation: Gradient = differentiate(fittedmodel, X,Y)
  •     Computing confidence intervals: Confidence_Intervals = confint(fittedmodel)
