Statistics package

The statistics package is part of the Octave Forge project.

Core package

We need to decide what to do with the functions in the existing Forge package when they are not implemented or have been removed from the corresponding Matlab Toolbox:

To be decided

function	decision/notes
anderson_darling_cdf
cl_multinom
dcov
gevfit_lmom
iwishpdf
jsucdf
jsupdf
monotone_smooth
normalise_distribution
princomp	matlab says that the function has been removed but likely is a lie. We should keep it too.
qrandn
runstest
sigma_pts	not yet released
violin
vmpdf
vmrnd
wishpdf

Matlab incompatible

These functions have the same name as Matlab functions but have a different interface

• boxplot
• gpcdf
• gpinv
• gppdf
• gprnd

Can be reused in other functions

Development

Follows an incomplete list of stuff missing in the statistics package to be matlab compatible. Bugs are not listed here, search and report them on the bug tracker instead.

this entire section is about the current development version. If a Matlab function is missing from the list and does not appear on the current release of the package, confirm that is also missing in the development sources before adding it.
