OK. This is just my ignorance.
Anyway, gnuplot fit uses unconstrained least square method.

 The `fit` command fits a user-supplied real-valued expression to a set of
 data points, using the nonlinear least-squares Marquardt-Levenberg
 algorithm. There can be up to 12 independent variables, there is always 1
 dependent variable, and any number of parameters can be fitted.
 Optionally, error estimates can be input for weighting the data points.

 The basic use of `fit` is best explained by a simple example:

       f(x) = a + b*x + c*x**2
       fit f(x) 'measured.dat' using 1:2 via a,b,c
       plot 'measured.dat' u 1:2, f(x)

 Syntax:
       fit {<ranges>} <expression>
           '<datafile>' {datafile-modifiers}
           {{unitweights} | {y|xy|z}error | errors <var1>{,<var2>,...}}
           via '<parameter file>' | <var1>{,<var2>,...}
