Approximation Report

This document describes performing approximation methods using Matlab on two examples. The first example fits a linear regression line to temperature and resistance data to compute temperature coefficients. The second computes relative error from a data set using linear least squares approximation.

Numerical Methods Laboratory

Lab 5:
Approximation

Edgar Abasov

Objective of current report is to perform approximation methods using Matlab software and language on a
few examples.
1) First example of wire coil represents dependence temperature and resistance where we should
compute values: temperature co-efficient of Resistance.
• Firstly, here performed converting given input data into working form.

(Celsius-->Kelvins, Ohms to milliohms)

• Dependence of variables is shown in the graph Above.

• Following step is to compute equation roots using Matlab’s already predefined functions polyfit
and polyval. As it shown (Above and right graph) linearity of input data is obvious and
approximation regression line location is right.

• Also, we got roots: 0.2235 and 133.2177 which are temperature co-efficient of Resistance a and
b in equation at the task paper.

Source code for task1):


% Input data (temperature in celsius wire coil )

T = [-85.02,-33.36,-9.99,32.88,1000.00,218.00,356.58,444.50,630.50];

T = T+273.15; % converting to kelvins

%disp(T);

% Resistance in ohms

R = [0.1000, 0.1335, 0.1464, 0.1737, 0.2155, 0.2810, 0.3599, 0.4077, 0.5017];

R = R*1000; % converting to miliohms

p = polyfit(T,R,1);

disp(p)

plot(p)

T1 = T;

R1 = polyval(p,T1);

figure

plot(T,R,'o')

hold on

plot(T1,R1)

hold off

2) Second task is to count relative error from input data set. Also, implementation performed using
Matlab.
• Input data computed throught the equation (X'*X)*-1*X'*y;
• Relative error computed using classic approximation formula

Result are:
Source code for task2:
X = [1 0; 1 2.5;1 5.5; 1 8.5; 1 11];

disp(X);

n=5;

relative_error=zeros(n);

y = [0.03; 0.9; 2.8; 4.7; 6.3];

disp(y);

p = (X'*X)*-1*X'*y;

disp(p);

relative_error=[];

y1 = X*p;

sum = 0;

for i=1:n

relative_error(i)=(1-y1(i)/y(i))*100;

fprintf('% %',i,relative_error(i));

sum=sum+abs(relative_error(i));

end
