Interactive Curve Fitting Analysis.
Abstract
The primary functions of the ICF (Interactive Curve Fitting) system are: (1) to permit the convenient display of sampled data files along with functional fits to that data in a manner designed to allow easy comparison between the two; (2) to permit sampled data files to be fit with functions variously constrained in form and boundary behavior; (3) to permit the piecewise construction of function files from sampled data files so that any desired portion of a data file may be given a functional representation; (4) to process and combine functional files using a variety of arithmetic and analytic operations; and, (5) to convert function files, normally produced by fitting sampled data files, back into sampled data file format for output or further processing. The first section of this report outlines the main details of how the above functions have been implemented, omitting operational procedures which may be found in the ICF User's Manual. The second section discusses why the present mode of implementation was chosen among the possible alternatives that were studied; and the last section offers suggestions for advancing the capabilities of the present system.
