Using PL/R for predictive analysis of data.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Everyone,

I am wanting to ask some opinions on implementing PL/R into V8.3 on
Win32. I have a need to be able to perform some relatively demanding
statistical functions as the basis of producing data for reports.

In short R appears to have more than enough capability to do the job
(from a statistical perspective), however there doesnt seem to be that
much discussion on using the PL/R implementation, or for that matter
tutorials on using PL/R.

What I would like to know is:
1/ Is is possible to create a view that has its columns based on the
output of a PL/R function?

2/ Are there special considerations for the source data?

3/ Has anyone any experience with NonLinear Regression Analysis using
PL/R to predict future outcomes as a resultset? (ie/ the equivalent of
output from an SQL SELECT statement)

Any advice or counsel would be greatly appreciated.

I am not super famailar with Postgres, but I am famailar with other
large scale databases as well as some desktop ones so dont be afraid
to throw technical answers if you need to :-)

Greatly appreciated

The Frog
