Quickstart Tutorial

The following sections give you a quick introduction to the modeling end of the Model-Based Calibration Toolbox. They do so by showing you how to use the toolbox to create a statistical model of an automobile engine that predicts the torque generated by the engine as a function of spark angle and other variables.

• Two-Stage Models
• Starting the Toolbox
• Setting Up the Model
• Setting Up the Local Model
• Setting Up the Global Model
• Selecting Data
• Specifying the Response Model
• Verifying the Model
• Verifying the Local Model
• Verifying the Global Model
• Selecting the Two-Stage Model
• Exporting the Model

For an explanation of how two-stage models are constructed and how they differ from one-stage models, see the following section, Two-Stage Models, or see Two-Stage Models for Engines in the Technical Documents for more depth.

This tutorial is a step-by-step guide to constructing a single two-stage model for some engine data. In the normal modeling process you might create many different models for one project and compare them to find the best solution.
