A program for fitting of hypnograms and other biological data by orthogonal polynomials
Comput Programs Biomed.
1976 Oct.
Abstract
Many biological phenomenon are nonlinear and poorly approximated by linear regression. The program POLFIT calculates curvilinear regressions by fitting of orthogonal polynomials. This program, as well as two supporting programs (CORREC: disk storage, and CALCML: calculation of cumulated values of series of observations), was primarily designed for the study of the temporal organization of sleep components. They can be used as well for any other kind of biological data.
