Overview

About

Maintained by Guangbao GuoFirst published 2025-12-011 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides a distributed framework for simulating and estimating skew factor models under various skewed and heavy-tailed distributions. The methods support distributed data generation, aggregation of local estimators, and evaluation of estimation performance via mean squared error, relative error, and sparsity measures. The distributed principal component (PC) estimators implemented in the package include 'IPC' (Independent Principal Component),'PPC' (Project Principal Component), 'SPC' (Sparse Principal Component), and other related distributed PC methods. The methodological background follows Guo G. (2023) doi:10.1007/s00180-022-01270-z.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("DSFM", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-dsfm

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-DSFM

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-DSFM

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
