Hi,
Needs["NonlinearRegression`"]
part1 = Table[{x,
With[{a2 = 2, b2 = -1, c2 = 1}, a2*(Exp[b2*x] - 1) + c2*x]}, {x,
0, 5, 0.05}];
startpoints = {a2, b2, c2};
msoln = BestFitParameters /.
NonlinearRegress[part1, a2*(Exp[b2*x] - 1) + c2*x, startpoints, x,
AccuracyGoal -> 5, PrecisionGoal -> 5, MaxIterations -> 5000,
Method -> "Gradient", RegressionReport -> BestFitParameters]
work fine.
Regards
Jens
