More Robust Non-linear optimization
- New nonlinearly constrained optimization routine
- More robust optimization under a variety of applications and
situations
Curve Fitting
Functions for Modeling and Graphical Display
- Radial basis function which allows for curve fitting over
multiple dimensions
- B-Spline package that include options that allow fine control
and customization over the fit of the curve and settings in the
curve-fitting algorithm
Data Mining and
Statistics Algorithms
- Cluster-Analysis: K-means
- Factor Analysis and Principal Components Analysis
- Discriminant Analysis
Time Series
Analysis Enhancements
- Correlation package that includes new algorithms such as: auto
correlation, partial auto-correlation, cross correlation matrix
and multivariate cross-correlation matrix
Charting
Enhancements
- Contour plots included for use in a variety of fields as a
useful way to visualize data with two independent variables Example
1 >> Example
2 >>
- Box plots for use in statistics to visualize distributions of
data, revealing not only the center of the data distribution but
also the spread of distribution Example
>>
Education Program
- The IMSL Java Library provides a special program and
incentives for professors who wish to teach Java Numerical
Analysis as a part of their curriculum
