greg sterijevski commented on MATH-607:
---------------------------------------
How do you propose to allow for the growth of global fit statistics? Keep
the getter pattern?
If we decide to keep the getter pattern, then for sure eliminate the array,
eliminate the static int indices.
What is the ML thread?

> Current Multiple Regression Object does calculations with all data incore.
> There are non incore techniques which would be useful with large datasets.

> The current multiple regression class does a QR decomposition on the complete
> data set. This necessitates the loading incore of the complete dataset. For
> large datasets, or large datasets and a requirement to do datamining or
> stepwise regression this is not practical. There are techniques which form
> the normal equations on the fly, as well as ones which form the QR
> decomposition on an update basis. I am proposing, first, the specification of
> an "UpdatingLinearRegression" interface which defines basic functionality all
> such techniques must fulfill.
> Related to this 'updating' regression, the results of running a regression on
> some subset of the data should be encapsulated in an immutable object. This
> is to ensure that subsequent additions of observations do not corrupt or
> render inconsistent parameter estimates. I am calling this interface
> "RegressionResults".
> Once the community has reached a consensus on the interface, work on the
> concrete implementation of these techniques will take place.
> Thanks,
