Hi Lahiru,

Would it be possible to use linear regression already available as
Siddhi extensions in [1] or maybe improve on that existing extensions
to extend it to fit polynomial curves? The code is available here [2].

I think forecasting is also available which can be useful in this
usecase. WDYT? Just sharing my 2 cents.. :-)

Thanks,
Lasantha
