Hi developers
I wonder if there are plans to implement a routine in scipy.stats similar to MATLAB's robustfit() function which handels outliers in a data set by iteratively adjusting a residual weight array.
I don't think anyone has any concrete plans to do so. Can you provide any documentation about the specific algorithm you'd like to see? I've encountered any number of such beasts (and don't trust any of them!).
Never mind. I ended up using Numerical Recipe's medfit() function which works pertty well. Cheers, steve -- There are three types of people in this world: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen and those who wonder what happened. - Mary Kay Ash
