Single objective optimization using a CMA-ES.

Pure R implementation of the Covariance Matrix Adaptation -
    Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES) with optional restarts (IPOP-CMA-ES).

It provides a function that calculates the Mahalanobis distance between each pair of species in a list of data frames. Each data frame contains the observations of a species with some factors. Mahalanobis distance is a measure of dissimilarity between two vectors of multivariate random variables, based on the covariance matrix. This distance is useful for statistical matching or fusion of data, that is the integration of two data sources that refer to the same target population and that share some variables.

Contains the Commercial Modular Aero-Propulsion System Simulation (C-MAPSS) data set.

Automatically displays graphical visualization for exported data table (permutated results) from Connectivity Map (CMap) (2006) <doi:10.1126/science.1132939>. 
  It allows the representation of the statistics (p-value and enrichment) according to each cell lines in the form of a bubble plot.

An implementation of 'Conic Multivariate Adaptive Regression Splines (CMARS)' in R.
    See Weber et al. (2011) CMARS: a new contribution to nonparametric regression with 
    multivariate adaptive regression splines supported by continuous optimization, 
    <DOI:10.1080/17415977.2011.624770>. It constructs models by using the terms
    obtained from the forward step of MARS and then estimates parameters by using 
    'Tikhonov' regularization and conic quadratic optimization. It is possible to 
    construct models for prediction and binary classification. It provides performance 
    measures for the model developed. The package needs the optimisation software 'MOSEK' 
    <https://www.mosek.com/> to construct the models. Please follow the instructions in 
    'Rmosek' for the installation.
