Rmetrics - Modelling Extreme Events in Finance

The fRegression package is a collection of functions for linear and non-linear regression modelling. It implements a wrapper for several regression models available in the base and contributed packages of R.

An example

The following code simulates some regression data and fits various models to these data.

library(fRegression)
# Simulate data: the response is linearly related to 3 explanatory variables 
x <- regSim(model = "LM3", n = 100)
