Models
The Models tool is used to define model equations
to which measured data can be fitted.
•
Click on the
Models
tab to open the Models
definition panel (Fig. 57). Click the tab again to
close the panel.
You have three options to define a model:
−
Correlation
: assemble a correlation model
from predefined equations, which will be
fitted analytically
−
PCH
: assemble a photon counting histogram
model, which will be fitted numerically
−
Formula
: program a user defined model
equation, which can be fitted analytically
9.9.1
Correlation
In correlation you can assemble a model with
predefined terms.
•
Press the
Correlation
tab to activate the
options for assembling a correlation model
(Fig. 58). Press any other tab to leave the panel.
•
Normally the last defined model will be
displayed in the
Equation Select
window.
Selected terms will be displayed in blue and the
assembled equation will be displayed in the
G(
τ
)=1
display area. The name of the model will
be displayed in the
Model
display box.
•
You can load a pre-defined model from the
Model
drop down menu. Its name will than be
displayed in the
Model
display box (Fig. 58).
•
You can alter the model or leave it unaltered
and rename it by typing the new name into the
Model
display box.
•
You can save the model by pressing the
Save
button (floppy disc icon). If the name is pre-
existing you will be prompted to confirm
overwriting the old method. Press
Yes
to
acknowledge,
No
to keep the old method.
•
You can delete a method from the list by
highlighting the method and pressing the
Delete
button (cross icon).
