The data are for the model $T(t) = T_{s} - (T_{s}-T_{0})e^{-\alpha t}$, where $T_0$ is the temperature measured at time 0, and $T_{s}$ is the temperature at time $t=\infty$, or the environment temperature. $T_{s}$ and $\alpha$ are parameters to be determined.
How can I fit my data against this model? I'm trying to solve $T_{s}$ by $T_{s}=(T_{0}T_{2}-T_{1}^{2})/(T_{0}+T_{2}-2T_{1})$, where $T_{1}$ and $T_{2}$ are measurements in time $\Delta t$ and $2\Delta t$, respectively.
However, the results are varying a lot through the whole data set.
Shall I try gradient descent for the parameters?
