FitSegmentToPoints_TheilSen


Module: FoundationBasic

Approximates points with a segment using TheilSen algorithm, optionally with Siegel's improvement.

Applications

Finds a well matching segment, ignoring up to 29.3% (TheilSen) or 50.0% (Siegel) outliers. Outliers do have some influence on accuracy.
