Dear R useRs, A new package `lspls' is now available on CRAN. It implements the LS-PLS (least squares--partial least squares) regression method, described in for instance J??rgensen, K., Segtnan, V. H., Thyholt, K., N??s, T. (2004) A Comparison of Methods for Analysing Regression Models with Both Spectral and Designed Variables; Journal of Chemometrics 18(10), 451--464. The current version of the package (0.1-0) should probably be considered `alpha software'. Nothing is cast in iron yet, and especially the formula interface and internal structure are apt to change in future versions. The software should, however, be fully usable in its present form. `lspls' currently includes fit and cross-validation functions with formula interfaces, a predict method, and plots of scores, loadings and (R)MSEP values. Suggestions, bug reports and other comments are very welcome. -- Sincerely, Bj??rn-Helge Mevik _______________________________________________ R-packages mailing list R-packages at stat.math.ethz.ch https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-packages
