What is the purpose of curve fitting when the data exhibits a significant degree of error or noise?
What is the purpose of curve fitting when the data exhibits a significant degree of error or noise?
- To fit multiple curves to the data
- To calculate the exact error associated with the data
- To derive a single curve that represents the general trend of the data (correct)
- To ignore the data and focus on theoretical models
