问题


I am trying to simply find best fit for malus's law.

I_measured=I_0*(cos(theta)) ^2

When I scatter the plot, it obviously works but with the def form() function I get the error given below.
I googled the problem and it seems that this is not the correct way to curvefit a cosine function.

given data is ..

x_data=x1 in the code below

[ 0.0, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 35.0, 40.0, 45.0, 50.0, 55.0, 
  60.0, 65.0, 70.0, 75.0, 80.0, 85.0, 90.0, 95.0, 100.0, 105.0, 110.0, 115.0,

the code

I_0=291,5*10**-6/(pi*0.35**2) # print(I_0) gives (291, 1.2992240252399621e-05)??
def form(theta, I_0):
    return (I_0*(np.abs(np.cos(theta)))**2) # theta is x_data

param=I_0
parame,covariance= optimize.curve_fit(form,x1,x2,I_0)
test=parame*I_0
#print(parame)
#plt.scatter(x1,x2,label='data')
plt.ylim(10**-5,3*10**-4)
plt.plot(x1,form(x1,*parame),'b--',label='fitcurve')

The error I get is:

TypeError: form() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given`

i started again with another code shown below.

    x1=np.radians(np.array(x1))
x2=np.array(x2)*10**-6
print(x1,x2)

def form(theta, I_0, theta0, offset):
    return I_0 * np.cos(np.radians(theta - theta0)) ** 2 + offset

param, covariance = optimize.curve_fit(form, x1, x2)

plt.scatter(x1, x2, label='data')
plt.ylim(0, 3e-4)
plt.xlim(0, 360)
plt.plot(x1, form(x1, *param), 'b-')
plt.ticklabel_format(style='sci', axis='y', scilimits=(0,0))
plt.axes().xaxis.set_major_locator(ticker.MultipleLocator(45))
plt.show()

in the new code. i multiplide the input array with a number.. basically it s still y_data in the first code. when i plot this, i see that function does not fit at all with an added code x1 = np.radians(np.array(x1))

Comma

I guess your I_0=291,5*10**-6/(pi*0.35**2) is supposed to be the initial guess for the fit. I don't know why this is expressed in such a complicated way. Using , as decimal separator is the wrong syntax in Python, use . instead. Also, instead of something like 123.4 * 10 ** -5 you can write 123.4e-5 (scientific notation).

Anyway, it turns out you don't even need to specify the initial guess if you do the fit correctly.

Model function

  1. In your model function, I_measured = I_0 * cos(theta)**2, theta is in radians (0 to 2π), but your x values are in degrees (0 to 360).

  2. Your model function doesn't account for any offset in the x or y values. You should include such parameters in the function.

An improved model function would look like this:

def form(theta, I_0, theta0, offset):
    return I_0 * np.cos(np.radians(theta - theta0)) ** 2 + offset

(Credits to Martin Evans for pointing out the np.radians function.)

Result

Now the curve_fit function is able to derive values for I_0, theta0, and offset that best fit the model function to your measured data:

>>> param, covariance = optimize.curve_fit(form, x, y)
>>> print 'I_0: {0:e} / theta_0: {1} degrees / offset: {2:e}'.format(*param)
I_0: -2.827996e-04 / theta_0: -9.17118424279 degrees / offset: 2.926534e-04

The plot looks decent, too:

import matplotlib.ticker as ticker

plt.scatter(x, y, label='data')
plt.ylim(0, 3e-4)
plt.xlim(0, 360)
plt.plot(x, form(x, *param), 'b-')
plt.ticklabel_format(style='sci', axis='y', scilimits=(0,0))
plt.axes().xaxis.set_major_locator(ticker.MultipleLocator(45))
plt.show()

(Your x values are from 0 to 360, I don't know why you've set the plot limits to 370. Also, I spaced the ticks in 45 degrees interval.)


Update: The fit results in a negative amplitude I_0 and an offset of about 3e-4, close to the maximum y values. You can guide the fit to a positive amplitude and offset close to zero ("flip it around") by providing a 90 degree initial phase offset:

>>> param, covariance = optimize.curve_fit(form, x, y, [3e-4, 90, 0])
>>> print 'I_0: {0:e} / theta_0: {1} degrees / offset: {2:e}'.format(*param)
I_0: 2.827996e-04 / theta_0: 80.8288157578 degrees / offset: 9.853833e-06

Here's the complete code.

The comma in your formula is creating a two object tuple, it does not specify "thousands", as such, you should remove this giving you:

I_O = 0.00757447606715

The aim here is to provide a function that can be adapted to fit your data. Your original function only provided one parameter, which was not enough to enable curve_fit() to get a good fit.

In order to get a better fit, you need to create more variables for your func() to enable the curve fitter more flexibility. In this case for the cos wave, it provides I_O for the amplitude, theta0 for the phase and yoffset.

So the code would be:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from math import pi
from scipy import optimize
import numpy as np

x1 = np.radians(np.array(x1))
x2 = np.array(x2)

def form(theta, I_0, theta0, offset):
    return I_0 * np.cos(theta - theta0) ** 2 + offset

param, covariance = optimize.curve_fit(form, x1, x2)
plt.scatter(x1, x2, label='data')
plt.ylim(x2.min(), x2.max())
plt.plot(x1, form(x1, *param), 'b-')
plt.show()

Giving you an output of:

The maths libraries work in radians, so your data would need to be converted to radians at some point (where 2pi == 360 degrees). You can either convert your data to radians, or carry out the conversion within your function.

Thanks also to mkrieger1 for the extra parameters.
