Subject: some more libraries please



Description:
-----------

  It is not exactly a problem.

  In fact I am looking for some extra libraries dealing with the folowing 
  subjects :
	- data smoothing (for 0 to 3-rd order Lagrange, or other)
	- signal derivative
	- minimization techniques for fitting signals with complex functions 
		(Marquardt-Levenberg, Gradient Descent, or other)

  Of course, it needs to be as fast as possible.

  I am working with an IBM rs6000-aix machine. (Unix)

  If I can't find those things, I might write them in GNU C++ because it's very  
  fast.
  Unfortunatly, my own Octave '.m' programs seem too slow. The
  only possibility to increase speed is I guess to compile it as Octave libraries.

  		Thanks.

				Emmanuel FARHI.
