Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Commons Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by PhilSteitz: http://wiki.apache.org/commons/MathWishList The comment on the change is: Replace dead link with one that is at least alive today -- * Examples, please? This item goes to the heart of what I consider an ongoing lack of consensus about what Commons-Math is supposed to be for. Should it include discipline-specific algorithms that do not overlap core numerical mathematical areas?

Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Commons Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by PhilSteitz: http://wiki.apache.org/commons/MathWishList The comment on the change is: Dropped request for number ranges - duplicates org.apache.commons.lang.math -- * Implementing algorithms for practicality, and look into optimizing the algorithms (in terms of implementing it). * AbstractStorelessUnivariateStatistic.evaluate(...) and all the workhorse implementations in subclasses should be static methods. -- NickGuenther * StandardDeviation has versions of .evaluate which take a precalculated mean. It would be nice if the same sort of thing could be had for all the other measures (e.g. skewness & kurtosis should be able to take both precalculated means and standard deviations) -- NickGuenther - * A 'between' function for checking number ranges. I've searched and could not find one, but if this functionality already exists, please contact me -- AlexMarshall * Generalized Matrix Inversion, as I describe on http://mjollnir.com/matrix/ -- Rand Huso * Estimation of Omega in GLSMultipleLinearRegression using, for example Feasible Generalized Least Squares [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feasible_generalized_least_squares] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org

Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Commons Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by PhilSteitz: http://wiki.apache.org/commons/MathWishList The comment on the change is: Dropped things that have been implemented or no longer make sense. -- * Add ability to compute the density of normal distribution and other well behaved distributions * Add ability to sample from some of the common distributions such as normal, gamma, beta and so on. * Add Dirichlet, Multinomial distributions - * Add alternative pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) + * Add additional alternative pseudo-random number generators (PRNGs) -* "implement good random number generators, e.g., like those described in ''Numerical Recipes'' or Knuth". -- AlChou -* I highly recommend working with Paul Houle [http://www.honeylocust.com/RngPack/] to get these random number generators integrated into the math library. He has stated to me in the past that he is willing to relicense them under the Apache license. As well I beleive that with the BSD being compatable with Apache licensing, there would be little stopping us from integrating them ourselves as a derivative work. - Mark Diggory - Pluggable as of 1.1 release. -* Investigate alternative methods for generating values from discrete distributions [http://www.jstatsoft.org/v11/i03/] + * Investigate alternative methods for generating values from discrete distributions [http://www.jstatsoft.org/v11/i03/] - * Add sparse matrix implementation.
