Hello, I would like to integrate some data. The data has a somewhat similar form as the picture of the peak in [1]. I think a good function describing the data is: y = amp * exp( -exp (x - center/width ) - x - center/width + 1) Before I integrate I would like to fit it to get rid of the noise. I don't know much about linear algebra but I've read I can use a non linear least square fitting method to fit the data. Maybe I can also use others? My question is can I do this with Scipy and if so how? Greetings, Bas van Dijk [1] http://mathworld.wolfram.com/NonlinearLeastSquaresFitting.html
