[R] State Space models in R

[Stephan Kolassa]

Hi,

Rob Hyndman's forecast package does exponential smoothing forecasting 
based on state space models (and lots of other stuff, ARIMA et al.). 
It's not exactly the companion package to his book, but it comes close.

The book's ("Forecasting with Exponential Smoothing - The State Space 
Approach") webpage is here:

HTH,
Stephan
