- Definition a general technique to fit a curve through your data. It fits data to any equation that defines Y as a function of X and one or more parameters. It finds the values of those parameters that generate the curve that comes closest to the data (minimizes the sum of the squares of the vertical distances between data points and curve) Reference "GraphPad Software.
