Chapter 5: R Add-On Packages 41<br />

femmeR Output analysis of FEMME model results.<br />

ffmanova Fifty-fifty MANOVA.<br />

fgac Families of Generalized Archimedean Copulas.<br />

fields A collection of programs <strong>for</strong> curve and function fitting with an emphasis on spatial<br />

data. The major methods implemented include cubic and thin plate splines,<br />

universal Kriging and Kriging <strong>for</strong> large data sets. The main feature is that any<br />

covariance function implemented in R can be used <strong>for</strong> spatial prediction.<br />

filehash Simple file-based hash table.<br />

filehashSQLite<br />

Simple key-value database using SQLite as the backend.<br />

financial Solving financial problems in R.<br />

fingerprint<br />

Functions to operate on binary fingerprint data.<br />

flexclust Flexible cluster algorithms.<br />

flexmix Flexible Mixture Modeling: a general framework <strong>for</strong> finite mixtures of regression<br />

models using the EM algorithm.<br />

fmri Functions <strong>for</strong> the analysis of fMRI experiments.<br />

<strong>for</strong>ecasting<br />

A bundle with functions and datasets <strong>for</strong> <strong>for</strong>ecasting. Contains <strong>for</strong>ecast (time<br />

series <strong>for</strong>ecasting), fma (data sets from the book “Forecasting: Methods and<br />

Applications” by Makridakis, Wheelwright & Hyndman, 1998), and Mcomp<br />

(data from the M-competitions).<br />

<strong>for</strong>eign Functions <strong>for</strong> reading and writing data stored by statistical software like<br />

Minitab, S, SAS, SPSS, Stata, Systat, etc. Recommended.<br />

<strong>for</strong>k Functions <strong>for</strong> handling multiple processes: simple wrappers around the Unix<br />

process management API calls.<br />

<strong>for</strong>tunes R <strong>for</strong>tunes.<br />

<strong>for</strong>ward Forward search approach to robust analysis in linear and generalized linear<br />

regression models.<br />

fpc Fixed point clusters, clusterwise regression and discriminant plots.<br />

fracdiff Maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters of a fractionally differenced<br />

ARIMA(p, d, q) model (Haslett and Raftery, Applied Statistics, 1989).<br />

frailtypack<br />

Fit a shared gamma frailty model and Cox proportional hazards model using a<br />

Penalized Likelihood on the hazard function.<br />

ftnonpar Features and strings <strong>for</strong> nonparametric regression.<br />

fuzzyRankTests<br />

Fuzzy rank tests and confidence intervals.
