varpro 0.14.0

A straightforward nonlinear least-squares fitting library which uses the Variable Projection algorithm.

% varpro_example.m
% Sample problem illustrating the use of varpro.m
%
% Observations y(t) are given at 10 values of t.
%
% The model for this function y(t) is 
%
%   eta(t) = c1 exp(-alpha2 t)*cos(alpha3 t) 
%          + c2 exp(-alpha1 t)*cos(alpha2 t)
%
% The linear parameters are c1 and c2, and the 
%  nonlinear parameters are alpha1, alpha2, and alpha3.
%
% The two nonlinear functions in the model are
%
%   Phi1(alpha,t) = exp(-alpha2 t)*cos(alpha3 t),
%   Phi2(alpha,t) = exp(-alpha1 t)*cos(alpha2 t).

% The data y(t) were generated using the parameters

% Noise was added to the data, so these parameters do not provide
% the best fit.  The computed solution is:
