gimbal-regression is a Python package for Gimbal Regression (GR) — a deterministic local linear regression framework for stable and reproducible estimation under anisotropic neighborhood geometry.
The package is designed with a focus on:
- Deterministic estimation (no iterative optimization)
- Numerical stability under irregular spatial sampling
- Explicit diagnostics (conditioning, effective sample size, fallback)
- Reproducibility via a single-pass estimator
Unlike conventional local regression methods (e.g., GWR/MGWR),
gimbal-regression exposes both estimates and their numerical reliability as first-class outputs. The package is distributed on PyPI as
gimbal-regression and imported in Python as
grpy.
