R packages - Dec 2017 - New package: nipals

I would like to announce the availability of the 'nipals' package on
CRAN,
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/nipals/.

The nipals package tries to do just one thing really well...find principal
components of a matrix using Nonlinear Partial Least Squares. Missing
values are allowed, the principal components are orthogonal, and the code
has been heavily optimized.

Details of the package can be found in a pair of vignettes:

Comparing NIPALS functions in R
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/nipals/vignettes/nipals_comparisons.html

NIPALS optimization notes
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/nipals/vignettes/nipals_optimization.html


Please report any issues through the Github page:
