[Haskell-cafe] Is there a module for multivariate linear regression?

[Lihn, Steve]

Don,
I checked most of them, but did not find anything close.
Hstats seems to be the right place, but no, it does not contain such
function.
It only contains predictive functions in statistics, but there is no
best-fit type of functions. I can calculate Sharpe ratio from it, but I
can not calculate the alpha and beta between two indexes/funds.

FYI -- Under 2.8, HaskellMath links to a 404 page.

This may be the only alternative if nothing obvious comes up...

Thanks,
Steve

Always check hackage.haskell.org first, but I'm not sure
we have exactly what you're looking for:

    http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/pkg-list.html#cat:Math

in which case the backup is :

 
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Applications_and_libraries/Mathematics

this does sound like fairly easy to package up as a new module, though,
if you're keen..
