Construct a model for function fitting(repost)

Completed Posted Aug 27, 2006 Paid on delivery
Completed Paid on delivery

I have a C program that was being developed by a programmer who recently lef the field. This C module fitting a function using optimization (Levenberg-Marquardt non-linear least squares algorithms), basically returns a model's RMS error value compared to the experimental data. It is a part of a Python project and it is running, but it does not fit well.

I am looking for an experienced C algorithm developer with some mathematical understanding who can work the model out, and fix the errors, bugs, if there are any.

The bidding will include:

1) Extraction of the model function.

2) Modification of the model, if necessary.

3) Debugging, testing and recompilation. I will provide you with testing/debugging codes. The test script is written in Python and some changes might be necessary in the script.

4) Visualization of output functions. The testing/debugging codes are written in a format which is compatible with both Matlab and Python, so plots can be made using either Matlab or Python's matplotlib or other programs that you are comfortable with.

Basically I want to make sure that this C module works as it should. I'm under severe time constraint, please bid if you think you can start working right away.
