Package huge updated to version 1.2 with previous version 1.1.2 dated 2011-08-22

Title: High-dimensional Undirected Graph Estimation
Description: The package "huge" provides a general framework for high-dimensional undirected graph estimation. It integrates data preprocessing, neighborhood screening, graph estimation, and model selection techniques into a pipeline. In preprocessing stage, the nonparanormal(npn) transformation is applied to help relax the normality assumption. In the graph estimation stage, the graph structure is estimated by Meinshausen-Buhlmann graph estimation or the graphical lasso, and both methods can be further accelerated by the lossy screening rule preselecting the neighborhood of each variable by correlation thresholding. We target on high-dimensional data analysis usually d >> n, and the computation is memory-optimized using the sparse matrix output. We also provide a computationally efficient approach, correlation thresholding graph estimation. Three regularization/thresholding parameter selection methods are included in this package: (1)stability approach for regularization selection (2) rotation information criterion (3) extended Bayesian information criterion which is only available for the graphical lasso.

Package sda updated to version 1.2.1 with previous version 1.2.0 dated 2011-06-28

Title: Shrinkage Discriminant Analysis and CAT Score Variable Selection
Description: This package provides an efficient framework for high-dimensional linear and diagonal discriminant analysis with variable selection. The classifier is trained using James-Stein-type shrinkage estimators and predictor variables are ranked using CAT scores (correlation-adjusted t-scores). Variable selection error is controlled using false non-discovery rates or higher criticism scores.

Package scam updated to version 1.1 with previous version 1.0 dated 2012-01-20

Title: Shape constrained additive models
Description: Routines for generalized additive modelling under shape constraints on the component functions of the linear predictor. Models can contain multiple shape constrained (univariate and/or bivariate) and unconstrained terms. The routines of mgcv(gam) package are used for setting up the model matrix, printing and plotting the results. Penalized likelihood maximization based on Newton-Raphson method is used to fit a model with multiple smoothing parameter selection by GCV or UBRE/AIC.

Package corpcor updated to version 1.6.2 with previous version 1.6.1 dated 2012-01-20

Title: Efficient Estimation of Covariance and (Partial) Correlation
Description: This package implements a James-Stein-type shrinkage estimator for the covariance matrix, with separate shrinkage for variances and correlations. The details of the method are explained in Sch\"afer and Strimmer (2005) and Opgen-Rhein and Strimmer (2007). The approach is both computationally as well as statistically very efficient, it is applicable to "small n, large p" data, and always returns a positive definite and well-conditioned covariance matrix. In addition to inferring the covariance matrix the package also provides shrinkage estimators for partial correlations and partial variances. The inverse of the covariance and correlation matrix can be efficiently computed, as well as any arbitrary power of the shrinkage correlation matrix. Furthermore, functions are available for fast singular value decomposition, for computing the pseudoinverse, and for checking the rank and positive definiteness of a matrix.

Package care updated to version 1.1.2 with previous version 1.1.1 dated 2011-07-25

Title: High-Dimensional Regression and CAR Score Variable Selection
Description: The "care" package implements the regression approach of Zuber and Strimmer (2011) "High-dimensional regression and variable selection using CAR scores" SAGMB 10: 34. CAR scores measure the correlation between the response and the Mahalanobis-decorrelated predictors. The squared CAR score is a natural measure of variable importance and provides a canonical ordering of variables. This package provides functions for estimating CAR scores, for variable selection using CAR scores, and for estimating corresponding regression coefficients. Both shrinkage as well as empirical estimators are available.
