Local Principal Curve Methods
Overview
Fitting multivariate data patterns with local principal curves, including tools for data compression (projection) and measuring goodness-of-fit; with some additional functions for mean shift clustering. See Einbeck, Tutz and Evers (2005) doi:10.1007/s11222-005-4073-8 and Ameijeiras-Alonso and Einbeck (2023) doi:10.1007/s11634-023-00575-1.
Minor changes
- Function ms.rep.min now features an (experimental and optional) adjustment to deal with non-convergence. Some other minor CRAN-related fixes.
