            Abstract : 
The concept of locally monotonic regression is extended by considering metrics on rn that are different from the Euclidean metric. The existence of regressions for a large class of metrics is shown. Algorithms that show the computability of locally monotonic regressions are given. A general algorithm that computes regressions for the lp metrics is given; considered in detail are the cases corresponding to the metrics l1  and l∞, where the sample median and the sample midrange play important roles
