Constrained least squares and exponential fitting
I am looking to fit Y ~ 1-exp{-[C1*(x/Xmax)^1+.......CN*(x/Xmax)^N]}. The order could be anywhere between 6 to 12 (max value of N). But before generating the fit, I need to estimate the coefficient using modified LSQ. I looked at the exponential fit (analyze fit Y-->X) and tried to enter a formulae but I do not want to directly fit the exponential curve, rather I want to estimate the best fit coef...
