Using an ExpressionModel
========================

ExpressionModels allow a model to be built from a user-supplied expression.
See: https://lmfit.github.io/lmfit-py/builtin_models.html#user-defined-models

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 9-14

.. code-block:: default

    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    import numpy as np

    from lmfit.models import ExpressionModel








.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 15-16

Generate synthetic data for the user-supplied model:

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 16-22

.. code-block:: default

    x = np.linspace(-10, 10, 201)
    amp, cen, wid = 3.4, 1.8, 0.5

    y = amp * np.exp(-(x-cen)**2 / (2*wid**2)) / (np.sqrt(2*np.pi)*wid)
    y = y + np.random.normal(size=x.size, scale=0.01)








.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 23-24

Define the ExpressionModel and perform the fit:

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 24-27

.. code-block:: default

    gmod = ExpressionModel("amp * exp(-(x-cen)**2 /(2*wid**2))/(sqrt(2*pi)*wid)")
    result = gmod.fit(y, x=x, amp=5, cen=5, wid=1)








.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 28-29

this results in the following output:

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 29-36

.. code-block:: default

    print(result.fit_report())

    plt.plot(x, y, 'bo')
    plt.plot(x, result.init_fit, 'k--', label='initial fit')
    plt.plot(x, result.best_fit, 'r-', label='best fit')
    plt.legend(loc='best')
    plt.show()
