Package termstrc updated to version 1.1.1 with previous version 1.1 dated 2008-02-21

Author: Robert Ferstl, Josef Hayden
Title: Zero-coupon Yield Curve Estimation
Description: Zero-coupon yield curves and spread curves are important inputs for various financial models, e.g. pricing of securities, risk management, monetary policy issues. Since zero-coupon rates are rarely directly observable, they have to be estimated from market data. The literature broadly distinguishes between parametric and spline-based estimation methods for the zero-coupon yield curve. Our package consists of several widely-used approaches, i.e. the parametric Nelson and Siegel (1987) method with the Svensson (1994) extension, and the McCulloch (1975) cubic splines approach. Extensive summary statistics and plots are provided to compare the results of the different estimation methods.

Package fda updated to version 2.1.3 with previous version 2.1.2 dated 2009-06-02

Author: J. O. Ramsay , Hadley Wickham , Spencer Graves , Giles Hooker
Title: Functional Data Analysis
Description: These functions were developed to support functional data analysis as described in Ramsay, J. O. and Silverman, B. W. (2005) Functional Data Analysis. New York: Springer. They were ported from earlier versions in Matlab and S-PLUS. An introduction appears in Ramsay, J. O., Hooker, Giles, and Graves, Spencer (2009) Functional Data Analysis with R and Matlab (Springer). The package includes data sets and script files working many examples including all but one of the 76 figures in this latter book.

Package R.huge updated to version 0.2.0 with previous version 0.1.9 dated 2009-09-23

Author: Henrik Bengtsson
Title: Methods for accessing huge amounts of data [DEPRECATED]
Description: THIS PACKAGE HAS BEEN DEPRECATED. Do not start building new projects based on it. Cross-platform alternatives are the following packages: bigmemory (CRAN), ff (CRAN), BufferedMatrix (BioConductor). The main usage of it was inside the aroma.affymetrix package. (The package currently provides a class representing a matrix where the actual data is stored in a binary format on the local file system. This way the size limit of the data is set by the file system and not the memory.)

Package OrdMonReg updated to version 1.0.2 with previous version 1.0.1 dated 2009-07-21

Author: Fadoua Balabdaoui, Kaspar Rufibach, Filippo Santambrogio
Title: Compute least squares estimates of one bounded or two ordered isotonic regression curves
Description: We consider the problem of estimating two isotonic regression curves g1* and g2* under the constraint that they are ordered, i.e. g1* <= g2*. Given two sets of n data points y_1, ..., y_n and z_1, ..., z_n that are observed at (the same) deterministic design points x_1, ..., x_n, the estimates are obtained by minimizing the Least Squares criterion L(a, b) = sum_{i=1}^n (y_i - a_i)^2 w1(x_i) + sum_{i=1}^n (z_i - b_i)^2 w2(x_i) over the class of pairs of vectors (a, b) such that a and b are isotonic and a_i <= b_i for all i = 1, ..., n. We offer two different approaches to compute the estimates: a projected subgradient algorithm where the projection is calculated using a PAVA as well as Dykstra's cyclical projection algorithm.

New package GLMMarp with initial version 0.1-1
Package: GLMMarp
Version: 0.1-1
Date: 2009-09-28
Title: Generalized Linear Multilevel Model with AR(p) Errors Package
Author: Xun Pang
Maintainer: Xun Pang
Depends: R (>= 2.8.0), coda (>= 0.11-3), MCMCpack, mvtnorm, lattice, msm, MASS, Matrix, accuracy, kinship, panel, bayesSurv
Description: This package contains functions to estimate the GLMM-AR(p) model for analyzing discrete time-series cross-sectional data via Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation. The simulation is done only with the R language. The model returns draws of the parameter posteriors selected by the user in a list format. Each parameter chain is returned as a matrix. The user is responsible to summarize the mcmc output by using the coda package. GLMMarp also contains several useful utility functions, including an independent function for computing the Bayes factor with GLMM-AR(p) output, a function to recover the random coefficients at the individual level, and a function to do prediction by using the posterior distributions. The package also contains a library of supporting functions for the MCMC simulation and Bayes factor estimation. In this version, no tools for visualization are provided. To use the functions in this package, the user needs to load the following two packages by him/herself: \code{panel} and \code{bayesSurv}, because the two packages have no namespace.
