Demo: general model with finite differences

The purpose of this example is to show how to use an arbitrary MATLAB code as a model for the Optimal Experimental Design Toolbox.

Contents

Create the model object and calculate the needed derivatives by finite differences

classdef my_model < model_fd
% This is an example model.
% The needed derivatives are calulated using finite differences.

      b
      c
   end

    methods (Access = public)

        % ******************* CONSTRUCTOR ******************* %

        function this = my_model(b, c)
        % The setup of the model is done here.
        %
        % Example:
        %     OBJ = MY_MODEL(b, c)
        %
        % Input:
        %     b: an input value for the model setup
        %     c: another input value for the model setup
        %
        % Output:
        %     OBJ: a MY_MODEL object with the passed configurations
        %

            this.b = b;
            this.c = c^2;
        end


        % ******************* MODEL Output ******************* %

        function M = get_M(this, p, t)
        % GET_M returns the model output.
        %
        % Example:
        %     M = MY_MODEL.GET_M(P, T)
        %
        % Input:
        %     P: the model parameters
        %     T: the measurement point
        %
        % Output:
        %     M: the model output for the passed parameters P at the measurement point T
        %

            M = this.b * p(1)^2 * t(1) + this.c * p(2) * t(2);
        end

    end
