CRAN (and crantastic) updates this week New packages ------------
* EQL (1.0-0) Thorn Thaler http://crantastic.org/packages/EQL Computation of the EQL for a given family of variance functions, Saddlepoint-approximations and related auxiliary functions (e.g. Hermite polynomials) * flsa (1.03) Holger Hoefling http://crantastic.org/packages/flsa This package implements a path algorithm for the Fused Lasso Signal Approximator. For more details see the help files * glmperm (1.0-1) Wiebke Werft http://crantastic.org/packages/glmperm A permutation test is used for inference in generalized linear models (glm). The procedure is useful when parameter estimates in ordinary glm fail to converge or are unreliable due to small sample size. * HMR (0.1.0) Asger R. Pedersen http://crantastic.org/packages/HMR Statistical analysis of static chamber concentration data for trace gas flux estimation * inlinedocs (1.0) Toby Dylan Hocking http://crantastic.org/packages/inlinedocs Generates Rd files from R source code with comments, providing for quick, sustainable package development. The syntax keeps code and documentation close together, and is inspired by the Don't Repeat Yourself principle. * intamap (1.2-18) Edzer J. Pebesma http://crantastic.org/packages/intamap A package that provides classes and methods for automated spatial interpolation. * intamapInteractive (1.0-6) Edzer J. Pebesma http://crantastic.org/packages/intamapInteractive A package that provides classes and methods for automated spatial interpolation. * lda (1.1) Jonathan Chang http://crantastic.org/packages/lda This package implements latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA) and related models. This includes (but is not limited to) sLDA, corrLDA, and the mixed-membership stochastic blockmodel. Inference for all of these models is implemented via a fast collapsed Gibbs sampler writtten in C. Utility functions for reading/writing data typically used in topic models, as well as tools for examining posterior distributions are also included. * phull (0.2-1) Marek Gagolewski http://crantastic.org/packages/phull The package computes the p-hull of a finite planar set, which is a generalization of the convex hull, X-Y hull and bounding rectangle. A fast, O(n log n) Graham-scan based routine is used. * psgp (0.2-7) Jon Skoien http://crantastic.org/packages/psgp implements projected sparse Gaussian process kriging for the intamap package * QCA3 (0.0-1) HUANG Ronggui http://crantastic.org/packages/QCA3 A set of functions is for Qulitative Comparative Analysis (QCA). It can be used for all three types of QCA. * RC (1.0.1.27) Send complaints to http://crantastic.org/packages/RC The RC package allows the user to create and use reproducible computations for the purpose of research and education. The meta data about the computations are stored in a remote repository which is hosted at www.freestatistics.org * RelativeRisk (1.0-1) Bob Wheeler http://crantastic.org/packages/RelativeRisk Relative risk estimation for prospective and retrospective data. * ttutils (1.0-0) Thorn Thaler http://crantastic.org/packages/ttutils Contains some auxiliary functions.
