Savitzky–Golay smoothing

This interactive simulator explores Savitzky–Golay Smoothing in Math Visualization. Noisy cosine vs SG(7,2) convolution — preserves peaks better than a wide boxcar. Use the controls to change the scenario; watch the visualization and any graphs or readouts to connect the model with lectures, labs, and homework.

Who it's for: Suited to beginners and first exposure to the topic. Typical context: Math Visualization.

How it works

Polynomial local regression used everywhere in experimental spectra and time series — smooth without shifting peaks as harshly as a wide boxcar.
