Attributes Documentation

intercept = Parameter('intercept', value=0.0)

linear = True

param_names = ('slope_x', 'slope_y', 'intercept')

Names of the parameters that describe models of this type.

The parameters in this tuple are in the same order they should be passed in when initializing a model of a specific type. Some types of models, such as polynomial models, have a different number of parameters depending on some other property of the model, such as the degree.

When defining a custom model class the value of this attribute is automatically set by the Parameter attributes defined in the class body.

slope_x = Parameter('slope_x', value=1.0)

slope_y = Parameter('slope_y', value=1.0)

Methods Documentation

static evaluate(x, y, slope_x, slope_y, intercept)
