Beyond curve fitting? Comment on Liu, Mayer-Kress, and Newell (2003).
Y.-T. Liu, G. Mayer-Kress, and K. M. Newell (2003) fit learning curves to movement time data and suggested 2 new methods for analyzing learning. They claimed that the methods go "beyond curve fitting." However, in neither their curve fitting nor their new methods is measurement noise accounted for, and therefore they produce inefficient and biased results. Using the data of Liu et al., in which...
متن کاملBeyond description: comment on "approaching human language with complex networks" by Cong and Liu.
In their historical overview, Cong & Liu highlight Sausurre as the father of modern linguistics [1]. They apparently miss G. K. Zipf as a pioneer of the view of language as a complex system. His idea of a balance between unification and diversification forces in the organization of natural systems, e.g., vocabularies [2], can be seen as a precursor of the view of complexity as a balance between...
متن کاملConstrained curve fitting on manifolds
When designing curves on surfaces the need arises to approximate a given noisy target shape by a smooth fitting shape. We discuss the problem of fitting a B-spline curve to a point cloud by squared distance minimization in the case that both, the point cloud and the fitting curve, are constrained to lie on a smooth manifold. The on-manifold constraint is included by using the first fundamental ...
متن کاملSignal detection Using Rational Function Curve Fitting
In this manuscript, we proposed a new scheme in communication signal detection which is respect to the curve shape of received signal and based on the extraction of curve fitting (CF) features. This feature extraction technique is proposed for signal data classification in receiver. The proposed scheme is based on curve fitting and approximation of rational fraction coefficients. For each symbo...
متن کاملCurve Fitting and Polymers
1 Curve Fitting and Polymers The availability of data from well-characterized samples such as those offered by Beamson and Briggs [1] owe much to the popularity of XPS as a tool for understanding the chemistry of polymers. A typical C 1s envelope [2] (Figure 1) includes structure that offers chemical information about a sample, but without some initial starting point it is difficult to construc...
