[R] self-starter functions for y = a + b * c^x

2012-08-14 Thread Christof Kluß
Hi

there are some predefined self-start functions, like SSmicmen, SSbiexp,
SSasymp, SSasympOff, SSasympOrig, SSgompertz, SSflp, SSlogis, SSweibull,
Quadratic, Qubic, SSexp (nlrwr)

Btw, do you know graphic examples for this functions?

The SSexpDecay (exponential decay) for y = (y0 - plateau)*exp(-k*x) +
plateau from
http://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/17126/how-can-i-make-my-r-nls-model-more-stable
works fine, too.

But now I search a self-starter for y = a + b * c^x

Do you know a package that implement such self-starter or is there a
easy way to do it myself?

thx
Christof

You might be able to adapt the SS.calib function
 from the psyphy package for this.  
It was designed to fit gamma functions to the 
luminance vs frame buffer values measured on CRT
screens.  But the functional form is similar.

thank you for the hint. I will test that function too. But it seems to
be something like y = a + b * x^c and not y = a + b * c^x

Can't you just reparameterize with  c^x = exp(x * log(c)) ?
