Penalized Partial Least Squares Regression 1.03

This package contains functions to estimate linear and nonlinear regression methods with Penalized Partial Least Squares. Partial Leasts Squares (PLS) is a regression method that constructs latent components Xw from the data X with maximal covariance to a response y. The components are then used in a least-squares fit instead of X. For a quadratic penalty term on w, Penalized Partial Least Squares constructs latent components that maximize the penalized covariance. Applications include the estimation of generalized additive models and functional data.

Features of the package include

estimation of linear regression models with penalized PLS,
estimation of generalized additive models with penalized PLS based on splines transformations,
model selection for both methods based on cross validation.

The package also contains a data set from Near-Infrared Spectroscopy.
