I would like to fit a dataset using the sum of two fitting functions, an exponential decay and exponential grow. y=a*exp(-k1*x)+b*(1-exp(-k2*(x-x0)). But if x equal or smaller than x0 only first function must be active. if x bigger than x0 both functions must be active. Can this type of fit be made in Origin?


Thanks.

Hi,

Yes, you can perform this kind of fitting.

You can write your fitting equation as:
if(x<x0) y=a*exp(-k1*x);
else y=a*exp(-k1*x)+b*(1-exp(-k2*(x-x0)));

where your fitting parameters are a, k1, b, k2, and x0.

If you are using versions prior to 7, set the Form drop-down list on your function edit page to Y-script. If you have version 7 or higher, you can keep the equation the same, but leave the "Use Origin C" check box checked and it will work fine.
