An efficient algorithm inspired by majorization-minimization principle for solving the entire solution path of a flexible nonparametric expectile regression estimator constructed in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space.

Gaussian process regression with an emphasis on kernels.
    Quantitative and qualitative inputs are accepted. Some pre-defined
    kernels are available, such as radial or tensor-sum for
    quantitative inputs, and compound symmetry, low rank, group kernel
    for qualitative inputs. The user can define new kernels and
    composite kernels through a formula mechanism. Useful methods
    include parameter estimation by maximum likelihood, simulation,
    prediction and leave-one-out validation.

A novel implementation that solves the linear distance weighted discrimination and the kernel distance weighted discrimination. Reference: Wang and Zou (2018) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12244>.

Smoothed bootstrap and functions for random generation from
             univariate and multivariate kernel densities. It does not
             estimate kernel densities.

Binary classification based on an ensemble of kernel machines ("Ballings, M. and Van den Poel, D. (2013), Kernel Factory: An Ensemble of Kernel Machines. Expert Systems With Applications, 40(8), 2904-2913"). Kernel factory is an ensemble method where each base classifier (random forest) is fit on the kernel matrix of a subset of the training data.

In self-reported or anonymised data the user often encounters
    heaped data, i.e. data which are rounded (to a possibly different degree
    of coarseness). While this is mostly a minor problem in parametric density
    estimation the bias can be very large for non-parametric methods such as kernel
    density estimation. This package implements a partly Bayesian algorithm treating
    the true unknown values as additional parameters and estimates the rounding
    parameters to give a corrected kernel density estimate. It supports various
    standard bandwidth selection methods. Varying rounding probabilities (depending
    on the true value) and asymmetric rounding is estimable as well: Gross, M. and Rendtel, U. (2016) (<doi:10.1093/jssam/smw011>).
    Additionally, bivariate non-parametric density estimation for rounded data, Gross, M. et al. (2016) (<doi:10.1111/rssa.12179>),
    as well as data aggregated on areas is supported.
