Jun 20, 2013 at 10:29 comment added dreichler I just understood your answer.You're totally right. You implemented a least square fit with almost no code. Really nice:) What do I excactly get with NMinValue of this expression? Really the sum of the squares?
Jun 20, 2013 at 10:15 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation That's essentially what I did in my answer to the other question...
Jun 20, 2013 at 10:11 comment added dreichler Thank you very much. It works. To obtain something like $\chi^2$ i must implement the sum of squares myself, don't I?
Jun 20, 2013 at 9:58 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation If you're fitting ellipses to data, you might be interested to know that there are special methods like this... but to start you off: NArgMin[{Norm[Function[{x, y}, a x^2 + 2 b x y + c y^2 - e] @@@ pts], b^2 - a c == -1}, {a, b, c, e}].
Jun 20, 2013 at 9:52 comment added dreichler I tried a graphical fit with a manipulate i get roughly a=-0.04, b=-0.97 and d=-0.17

included data
Jun 20, 2013 at 9:35 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation Okay, but you still need to include pts somewhere, as the rest of us don't have it... on another note, you wouldn't happen to have initial guesses for your parameters, no?
Jun 20, 2013 at 9:34 comment added dreichler I have modified the question, now it shouldn't be a duplicate anymore
