  Description     : (not so) Small Toolbox for Kriging

The STK is a (not so) Small Toolbox for Kriging. Its primary focus
is on the interpolation/regression technique known as kriging,
which is very closely related to Splines and Radial Basis
Functions, and can be interpreted as a non-parametric Bayesian
method using a Gaussian Process (GP) prior. The STK also provides
tools for the sequential and non-sequential design of experiments.
Even though it is, currently, mostly geared towards the Design
and Analysis of Computer Experiments (DACE), the STK can be useful
for other applications areas (such as Geostatistics, Machine
Learning, Non-parametric Regression, etc.).

NOTE: The STK a package from the Octave Forge project [1], and will
be packaged and maintained for Debian within the Debian Octave Group [2].
