Sudipta Mukherjee

Sudipta Mukherjee was born in Kolkata and migrated to Bangalore. He is an electronics engineer by education and a computer engineer/scientist by profession and passion. He graduated in 2004 with a degree in electronics and communication engineering. He has a keen interest in data structure, algorithms, text processing, natural language processing tools development, programming languages, and machine learning at large. His first book on Data Structure using C has been received quite well. Parts of the book can be read on Google Books. The book was also translated into simplified Chinese, available from Amazon.cn. This is Sudipta's second book with Packt Publishing. His first book, .NET 4.0 Generics , was also received very well. During the last few years, he has been hooked to the functional programming style. His book on functional programming, Thinking in LINQ, was released in 2014. He lives in Bangalore with his wife and son. Sudipta can be reached via e-mail at sudipto80@yahoo.com and via Twitter at @samthecoder.

Putting it together with Math.NET and FsPlot


In this example, you will see how Math.NET and FsPlot can be used together to generate the linear regression coefficients and plot the result. For this example, we will use a known relation between Relative Humidity (RH) and Dew point temperature. The relationship between relative humidity and dew point temperature is given by the following two formulas:

Here, t and td are the temperatures in degrees Celsius.

td is dew point, which is a measure of atmospheric moisture. It is the temperature to which the air must be cooled in order to reach saturation (assuming the air pressure and the moisture content are constant).

Let's say the dew point is 10 degrees Celsius, then we can see how linear regression can be used to find a relationship between the temperature and RH.

The following code snippet generates a list of 50 random temperatures and then uses the formula to find the RH. It then feeds this data into a linear regression system to find the best...
