Package org.apache.commons.math.optimization.fitting

Class GaussianDerivativeFunction

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.math.optimization.fitting.GaussianDerivativeFunction

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, UnivariateRealFunction

public class GaussianDerivativeFunction
extends Object
implements UnivariateRealFunction, Serializable

The derivative of GaussianFunction. Specifically:

f'(x) = (-b / (d^2)) * (x - c) * exp(-((x - c)^2) / (2*(d^2)))

Notation key:

• x^n: x raised to the power of n
• exp(x): e^x

Since:

2.2
