[R] Smooth monotone estimation on R

[Assaf P Oron]

Hi all,

I'm looking for smooth monotone estimation packages, preferably using splines.

I downloaded the 'cobs' package and intend to use it, but since it offers only quadratic splines based on L1 minimization, I'd like to compare its performance to that of a more 'mainstream' cubic-spline, L2-norm minimizing spline. Preferably a smoothing spline.

Does anyone know of such code existing anywhere? Or another smooth monotone alternative?

Thanks in advance,
