Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.4.2, Package name: R-acepack-1.4.2, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

Two nonparametric methods for multiple regression transform selection
are provided. The first, Alternative Conditional Expectations (ACE),
is an algorithm to find the fixed point of maximal correlation, i.e.
it finds a set of transformed response variables that maximizes R^2
using smoothing functions [see Breiman, L., and J.H. Friedman. 1985.
"Estimating Optimal Transformations for Multiple Regression and
Correlation". Journal of the American Statistical Association.
80:580-598. <doi:10.1080/01621459.1985.10478157>]. Also included is
the Additivity Variance Stabilization (AVAS) method which works better
than ACE when correlation is low [see Tibshirani, R.. 1986.
"Estimating Transformations for Regression via Additivity and Variance
Stabilization". Journal of the American Statistical Association.
83:394-405. <doi:10.1080/01621459.1988.10478610>]. A good introduction
to these two methods is in chapter 16 of Frank Harrel's "Regression
Modeling Strategies" in the Springer Series in Statistics.

Log message:
Update all R packages to canonical form.

The canonical form [1] of an R package Makefile includes the
following:

- The first stanza includes R_PKGNAME, R_PKGVER, PKGREVISION (as
  needed), and CATEGORIES.

- HOMEPAGE is not present but defined in math/R/Makefile.extension to
  refer to the CRAN web page describing the package.  Other relevant
  web pages are often linked from there via the URL field.

This updates all current R packages to this form, which will make
regular updates _much_ easier, especially using pkgtools/R2pkg.
