37 Origin uses the evenberg Marquardt algorithm for nonlinear fitting From experiment you have the array (x i,y i ) of independent and dependent variables: x i (e.g. f- frequency) and y i (e.g. magnitude of the signal) and you have optimize the vector of fitting parameters b of your model function f(x,b) in order to minimize the sum of squares of deviations: m i1 b 2 S( b) y f ( x, ) i Important point is the choice of fitting parameters. In some cases the algorithm will work with b=(1,1 1), but in many situations the choice of more realistic parameters will lead to solution For details go to: K. evenberg.
