;+ ; NAME: ; LEGPOLY_FIT ; ; PURPOSE: ; Perform a least-square fit with optional error estimates to ; legendre coefficients ; ; This routine uses matrix inversion. A newer version of this routine, ; SVDFIT, uses Singular Value Decomposition. The SVD technique is more ; flexible, but slower. ; ; CATEGORY: ; Curve fitting. ; ; CALLING SEQUENCE: ; Result = LEGPOLY_FIT(X, Y, Degree) ; ; INPUTS: ; X: The independent variable vector. ; ; Y: The dependent variable vector, should be same length as x. ; ; Degree: The degree of the polynomial to fit. ; ; OUTPUTS: ; LEGPOLY_FIT returns a vector of coefficients with a length of NDegree+1. ; ; KEYWORDS: ; CHISQ: Sum of squared errors divided by MEASURE_ERRORS if specified. ; ; COVAR: Covariance matrix of the coefficients. ; ; DOUBLE: if set, force computations to be in double precision. ; ; MEASURE_ERRORS: Set this keyword to a vector containing standard ; measurement errors for each point Y[i]. This vector must be the same ; length as X and Y. ; ; Note - For Gaussian errors (e.g. instrumental uncertainties), ; MEASURE_ERRORS should be set to the standard ; deviations of each point in Y. For Poisson or statistical weighting ; MEASURE_ERRORS should be set to sqrt(Y). ; ; SIGMA: The 1-sigma error estimates of the returned parameters. ; ; Note: if MEASURE_ERRORS is omitted, then you are assuming that ; your model is correct. In this case, SIGMA is multiplied ; by SQRT(CHISQ/(N-M)), where N is the number of points ; in X and M is the number of terms in the fitting function. ; See section 15.2 of Numerical Recipes in C (2nd ed) for details. ; ; STATUS = Set this keyword to a named variable to receive the status ; of the operation. Possible status values are: ; 0 for successful completion, 1 for a singular array (which ; indicates that the inversion is invalid), and 2 which is a ; warning that a small pivot element was used and that significant ; accuracy was probably lost. ; ; Note: if STATUS is not specified then any error messages will be output ; to the screen. ; ; YBAND: 1 standard deviation error estimate for each point. ; ; YERROR: The standard error between YFIT and Y. ; ; YFIT: Vector of calculated Y's. These values have an error ; of + or - YBAND. ; ; COMMON BLOCKS: ; None. ; ; SIDE EFFECTS: ; None. ; ; MODIFICATION HISTORY: ; 2010 Dec Leslie Young. Modify from polyfit. ; ; $Id: //depot/idl/IDL_70/idldir/lib/poly_fit.pro#1 $ ; ; Distributed by ITT Visual Information Solutions. ; ; Written by: George Lawrence, LASP, University of Colorado, ; December, 1981. ; ; Adapted to VAX IDL by: David Stern, Jan, 1982. ; Modified: GGS, RSI, March 1996 ; Corrected a condition which explicitly converted all ; internal variables to single-precision float. ; Added support for double-precision inputs. ; Added a check for singular array inversion. ; SVP, RSI, June 1996 ; Changed A to Corrm to match IDL5.0 docs. ; S. Lett, RSI, December 1997 ; Changed inversion status check to check only for ; numerically singular matrix. ; S. Lett, RSI, March 1998 ; Initialize local copy of the independent variable ; to be of type DOUBLE when working in double precision. ; CT, RSI, March 2000: Changed to call POLYFITW. ; CT, RSI, July-Aug 2000: Removed call to POLYFITW, ; added MEASURE_ERRORS keyword, ; added all other keywords (except DOUBLE), ; made output arguments obsolete. ; CT, RSI, Jan 2003: Combine some vector math expressions, ; general code cleanup. About 50% faster. ;- FUNCTION LEGPOLY_FIT, x, y, ndegree, $ yfit_old, yband_old, yerror_old, corrm_old, $ ; obsolete arguments CHISQ=chisq, $ COVAR=covar, $ DOUBLE=double, $ MEASURE_ERRORS=measure_errors, $ SIGMA=sigma, $ STATUS=status, $ YBAND=yband, $ YERROR=yerror, $ YFIT=yfit COMPILE_OPT idl2 ON_ERROR,2 ;RETURN TO CALLER IF ERROR n = N_ELEMENTS(x) IF (n NE N_ELEMENTS(y)) THEN MESSAGE, $ 'X and Y must have same number of elements.' m = ndegree + 1 ; # of elements in coeff vec double = (N_ELEMENTS(double) GT 0) ?
