Paravastu Aananta Venkata Bhattandha Swamy (born c. 1934) is an Indian-born statistician. His research focused on econometric issues such as the simultaneous presence of measurement error, misspecified functional forms, and omitted variables.[1]

After earning a B.A. in economics from Andhra University, India, in 1956, both an M.A. in economics and a M.S. in statistics from the same university in 1958, Swamy attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He finished his Ph.D. dissertation under the supervision of Arthur Goldberger in 1968.
