.. |figure| image:: https://raw.github.com/razor-x/scipy-data_fitting/master/plot.png

Complete pipeline for easy data fitting with Python 3.

Check out the `example fits on Fitalyzer`_.
See the `Fitalyzer README`_ for details on how to use Fitalyzer for
visualizing your fits.

.. _example fits on Fitalyzer: http://io.evansosenko.com/fitalyzer/?firebase=scipy-data-fitting
.. _Fitalyzer README: https://github.com/razor-x/fitalyzer

Installation
------------

This package is registered on the `Python Package Index (PyPI)`_
as scipy_data_fitting_.

Add this line to your application's requirements.txt

::

scipy_data_fitting

and install it with

::

$ pip install -r requirements.txt

If you are writing a Python package which will depend on this,
add this to your requirements in ``setup.py``.

Alternatively, install it directly using pip with

::

$ pip install scipy_data_fitting

.. _scipy_data_fitting: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/scipy-data_fitting
.. _Python Package Index (PyPI): https://pypi.python.org/

Documentation
-------------

Documentation is generated from source with `pdoc`_.
The latest version is hosted at `pythonhosted.org/scipy-data\_fitting/`_.

To get started quickly, check out the `examples`_.

Then, refer to the source documentation for details on how to use each class.

.. _pdoc: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pdoc/
.. _pythonhosted.org/scipy-data\_fitting/: https://pythonhosted.org/scipy-data_fitting/
.. _examples: https://github.com/razor-x/scipy-data_fitting/tree/master/examples

Basic Usage
-----------

.. code:: python

from scipy_data_fitting import Data, Model, Fit, Plot

# Load data from a CSV file.
data = Data('linear')
data.path = 'linear.csv'
data.error = (0.5, None)

# Create a linear model.
model = Model('linear')
model.add_symbols('t', 'v', 'x_0')
t, v, x_0 = model.get_symbols('t', 'v', 'x_0')
model.expressions['line'] = v * t + x_0

# Create the fit using the data and model.
fit = Fit('linear', data=data, model=model)
fit.expression = 'line'
fit.independent = {'symbol': 't', 'name': 'Time', 'units': 's'}
fit.dependent = {'name': 'Distance', 'units': 'm'}
fit.parameters = [
{'symbol': 'v', 'guess': 1, 'units': 'm/s'},
{'symbol': 'x_0', 'value': 1, 'units': 'm'},
]

# Save the fit result to a json file.
fit.to_json(fit.name + '.json', meta=fit.metadata)

# Save a plot of the fit to an image file.
plot = Plot(fit)
plot.save(fit.name + '.svg')
plot.close()

Controlling the fitting process
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The above example will fit the line using the default algorithm
``scipy.optimize.curve_fit``.

For a linear fit, it may be more desirable to use a more efficient
algorithm.

For example, to use ``numpy.polyfit``, one could set a
``fit_function`` and allow both parameters to vary,

.. code:: python

fit.parameters = [
{'symbol': 'v', 'guess': 1, 'units': 'm/s'},
{'symbol': 'x_0', 'guess': 1, 'units': 'm'},
]
fit.options['fit_function'] = \
lambda f, x, y, p0, **op: (numpy.polyfit(x, y, 1), )

Controlling the fitting process this way allows, for example,
incorporating error values and computing and returning goodness of fit
information.

See ``scipy_data_fitting.Fit.options`` for further details on how to
control the fit and also how to use `lmfit`_.
