If a given set of data has normal probability distribution then the number of defects that will occur in the process over a period of time can be known depending upon the sigma level of the process. It is a measure which uses the characteristic of past data to make judgements about how the process will perform in the future. Method ‘lm’ only provides this information.Sigma or standard deviation is a statistical measure of dispersion in data. Method ‘lm’ only provides this information. ipvtĪn integer array of length N which definesįjac*p = q*r, where r is upper triangular Together with ipvt, the covariance of the The residual values evaluated at the solution, for a 1-D sigma Methods ‘trf’ and ‘dogbox’ do notĬount function calls for numerical Jacobian approximation,

If True, sigma is used in an absolute sense and the estimated parameterĬovariance pcov reflects these absolute values. None (default) is equivalent of 1-D sigma filled with ones.
