Non-Linear Modeling with nls in R
I want to use non-linear regression lines to show the Height over Diameter relation of trees. I'm using the following formula:
h = A + B ∙ d + C ∙ d²
For this I used the nls package in R. I inserted the Formula in the follwing…

nls: how to set unreachable bounds on parameters
I am trying to estimate a complex model with nlsLM() in R package minpack.lm. It goes like this:
nlc <- nls.lm.control(maxiter = 10000, maxfev = 10000)
nlsLM(formula = log(demand+0.001) ~ Diff.model.log(m,pin,q,lambda1,lambda2,goal,length,time),

Matlab: non-linear-regression, 2 criteria
I am trying to fit a non-linear model using 3 independent variables (light, temperature and vapor pressure deficit (VPD)) to predict net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE).
I know how to use the nlinfit function, but my problem is that I want to use 2…

Matlab - Adding assumptions to non linear model fitting
I'm using the fitnlm function within Matlab to calculate three coefficients. To improve the results, I know that two of the coefficients need to be positive and the third to be from 0 - 360 degrees. How can I add these assumptions into the model?…

R - How to fit a model to a nonlinear regression with darch() and predict()?
I am trying to fit a model to a non linear regression by using darch().
Here is the code I already have done :
library(darch)
x = seq(-10, 10, 0.2)
e = function(x) {
return(rnorm(n = length(x), 0, sqrt(0.1)))
}
y = function(x) {

Fit with the parameter
I am quite new to Matlab and I am trying to use this code I found online.
I am trying to fit a graph described by the HydrodynamicSpectrum. But instead of having it fit after inputting fvA and fmA, I am trying to obtain the fitted parameters for…

Can I do regression with deep learning?
I am new to ML, and I have a dataset:
Where:
X = {X_1, X_2, X_3, X_4, X_5, X_6, X_7};
Y = Y;
I'm trying to find the possible relationship between X and Y like Y = M(X) using Deep Learning. To my knowledge, this is a regression task since the data…

How to estimate confidence of nonlinear regression?
I use Levenberg -- Marquardt algorithm to fit my nonlinear function f(x,b) (x:Nx1, b:Mx1) to data X:NxK.
Now I want to estimate goodness (confidence) of solution b.
This post says that I should not try to find R-squared in nonlinear case. What…
