Any hint appreciated.
There is no kriging implementation in matplotlib. Kriging is a special case of Gaussian processes, though, so the RandomRealizations package or my own gp package might be of use to you. You will have to do some reading to translate the entities you are familiar with (variograms, etc.) to the entities used in Gaussian processes (covariance functions, etc.). http://code.google.com/p/random-realizations/ http://www.enthought.com/~rkern/cgi-bin/hgwebdir.cgi/gp/ Anand has been doing more work on RandomRealizations than I have on gp, so try it first. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
