Methods Documentation

__call__(model, x, y, z=None, weights=None, **kwargs)

Fit data to this model.

Parameters

modelFittableModel

model to fit to x, y, z

xarray

input coordinates

yarray

input coordinates

zarray, optional

input coordinates

weightsarray, optional

Weights for fitting. For data with Gaussian uncertainties, the weights should be 1/sigma.

kwargspython:dict

optional keyword arguments to be passed to the optimizer or the statistic

maxiterpython:int

maximum number of iterations

accpython:float

Relative error in approximate solution

equivalenciespython:list or python:None, optional, keyword-only

List of additional equivalencies that are should be applied in case x, y and/or z have units. Default is None.

Returns

model_copyFittableModel

a copy of the input model with parameters set by the fitter
