def linregress(x, y=None):
"""
Calculate a linear least-squares regression for two sets of measurements.
Parameters
----------
x, y : array_like
Two sets of measurements. Both arrays should have the same length. If
only `x` is given (and ``y=None``), then it must be a two-dimensional
array where one dimension has length 2. The two sets of measurements
are then found by splitting the array along the length-2 dimension. In
the case where ``y=None`` and `x` is a 2x2 array, ``linregress(x)`` is
equivalent to ``linregress(x[0], x[1])``.
Returns
-------
slope : float
Slope of the regression line.
intercept : float
Intercept of the regression line.
rvalue : float
Correlation coefficient.
pvalue : float
Two-sided p-value for a hypothesis test whose null hypothesis is
that the slope is zero, using Wald Test with t-distribution of
the test statistic.
stderr : float
Standard error of the estimated gradient.

least squares to fit a function to data.
:func:`scipy.optimize.leastsq` : Minimize the sum of
squares of a set of equations.
Notes
-----
Missing values are considered pair-wise: if a value is missing in `x`,
the corresponding value in `y` is masked.
Examples
--------
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
>>> from scipy import stats
Generate some data:
>>> np.random.seed(12345678)
>>> x = np.random.random(10)
>>> y = 1.6*x + np.random.random(10)
Perform the linear regression:
>>> slope, intercept, r_value, p_value, std_err = stats.linregress(x, y)
>>> print("slope: %f intercept: %f" % (slope, intercept))
slope: 1.944864 intercept: 0.268578
To get coefficient of determination (R-squared):
>>> print("R-squared: %f" % r_value**2)
R-squared: 0.735498
Plot the data along with the fitted line:
>>> plt.plot(x, y, 'o', label='original data')
>>> plt.plot(x, intercept + slope*x, 'r', label='fitted line')
>>> plt.legend()
>>> plt.show()
Example for the case where only x is provided as a 2x2 array:
>>> x = np.array([[0, 1], [0, 2]])
>>> r = stats.linregress(x)
>>> r.slope, r.intercept

def theilslopes(y, x=None, alpha=0.95):
r"""
Computes the Theil-Sen estimator for a set of points (x, y).
`theilslopes` implements a method for robust linear regression. It
computes the slope as the median of all slopes between paired values.
Parameters
----------
y : array_like
Dependent variable.
x : array_like or None, optional
Independent variable. If None, use ``arange(len(y))`` instead.
alpha : float, optional
Confidence degree between 0 and 1. Default is 95% confidence.
Note that `alpha` is symmetric around 0.5, i.e. both 0.1 and 0.9 are
interpreted as "find the 90% confidence interval".
Returns
-------
medslope : float
Theil slope.
medintercept : float
Intercept of the Theil line, as ``median(y) - medslope*median(x)``.
lo_slope : float
Lower bound of the confidence interval on `medslope`.
up_slope : float
Upper bound of the confidence interval on `medslope`.
See also
--------
siegelslopes : a similar technique using repeated medians
Notes
-----
The implementation of `theilslopes` follows [1]_. The intercept is
not defined in [1]_, and here it is defined as ``median(y) -
medslope*median(x)``, which is given in [3]_. Other definitions of
the intercept exist in the literature. A confidence interval for
the intercept is not given as this question is not addressed in
[1]_.

Compute the slope, intercept and 90% confidence interval. For comparison,
also compute the least-squares fit with `linregress`:
>>> res = stats.theilslopes(y, x, 0.90)
>>> lsq_res = stats.linregress(x, y)
Plot the results. The Theil-Sen regression line is shown in red, with the
dashed red lines illustrating the confidence interval of the slope (note
that the dashed red lines are not the confidence interval of the regression
as the confidence interval of the intercept is not included). The green
line shows the least-squares fit for comparison.

def siegelslopes(y, x=None, method="hierarchical"):
r"""
Computes the Siegel estimator for a set of points (x, y).
`siegelslopes` implements a method for robust linear regression
using repeated medians (see [1]_) to fit a line to the points (x, y).
The method is robust to outliers with an asymptotic breakdown point
of 50%.
Parameters
----------
y : array_like
Dependent variable.
x : array_like or None, optional
Independent variable. If None, use ``arange(len(y))`` instead.
method : {'hierarchical', 'separate'}
If 'hierarchical', estimate the intercept using the estimated
slope ``medslope`` (default option).
If 'separate', estimate the intercept independent of the estimated
slope. See Notes for details.
Returns
-------
medslope : float
Estimate of the slope of the regression line.
medintercept : float
Estimate of the intercept of the regression line.
See also
--------
theilslopes : a similar technique without repeated medians
Notes
-----
With ``n = len(y)``, compute ``m_j`` as the median of
the slopes from the point ``(x[j], y[j])`` to all other `n-1` points.
``medslope`` is then the median of all slopes ``m_j``.
Two ways are given to estimate the intercept in [1]_ which can be chosen
via the parameter ``method``.
The hierarchical approach uses the estimated slope ``medslope``
and computes ``medintercept`` as the median of ``y - medslope*x``.
The other approach estimates the intercept separately as follows: for
each point ``(x[j], y[j])``, compute the intercepts of all the `n-1`
lines through the remaining points and take the median ``i_j``.
``medintercept`` is the median of the ``i_j``.
The implementation computes `n` times the median of a vector of size `n`
which can be slow for large vectors. There are more efficient algorithms
(see [2]_) which are not implemented here.
