Dear Community,

I guess I have a very simple question, but I am completely new to Origin.

I want to do a simple regression fitting with a bunch of Data points. As exponential fitting function I want to use: A *exp(-B*x)

But after plotting my dataset I cannot find a fitting curve like that. Do I have to create a new fitting curve or did I just overlook the right curve?

Thank you for your support!

Cheers
Chillkroete

Hi Chillkroete,

You can fit with a build-in function Exp2PMod1, under Exponential category. Here is a video tutorial that can help you quickly get started with Origin Nonlinear curve fitting dialog:

Hi Amanda,

thank you for your reply!

I tried EXP2PMOD1 and I found the correct formula (of course you were right! ;) )

But unfortunately the fitting looks absolutely weired, as you can see here:


On the sceenshoot you only see the fit very light. Its just a line at the X-Axis.

If I use Asymptotic1 for example It looks quite well, but of course It does not have the desired parameter like: A *exp(-B*x)

Do you have an Idea what I did wrong?

Thank you for your help!

Hi#65292; Micha

I think you can try ExpDecay1 function (y0 + A1 * exp(-(x-x0)/t1)).
Still not a good fit, but I think it's acceptable.
It is the same as Exp2pMOD1 but with a y offset.

Cool, that works quite well for most of my Data, thank you!

But I have one Dataset, which does not look nice:




Do you have an idea what might be the preoblem, why the fit looks weired? Looks like the points in te middle are not considered.

Thank you for your reply!

Hi, Chillkroete

It looks you did not hit the Fit until converged button when using the ExpDecay1 function. Please look at the fitted curve after I hit the Fit until converge button. However, there is also warning message to remind "you may have overparameterized the fitting function. Fixing one of them may eliminate this problem"

So I also tried fix x0 to 2010 and the fit looks good.
