[R-pkgs] new package ppls

[Nicole Krämer]

A new package ppls is now available on CRAN.

The ppls package implements penalized Partial Leasts Squares (PLS). In a 
nutshell, supervised dimensionality reduction via PLS is combined with 
penalization techniques. 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.


For more information on penalized PLS, see

Please send an email to nkraemer at cs dot tu-berlin dot de for any 
comments, suggestions, or reports on bugs.

Regards,

Nicole & Anne-Laure
