A General Framework for Multivariate Analysis with Optimal
Scaling
Contains various functions for optimal scaling. One function performs optimal scaling by maximizing an aspect (i.e. a target function such as the sum of eigenvalues, sum of squared correlations, squared multiple correlations, etc.) of the corresponding correlation matrix. Another function performs implements the LINEALS approach for optimal scaling by minimization of an aspect based on pairwise correlations and correlation ratios. The resulting correlation matrix and category scores can be used for further multivariate methods such as structural equation models.

Perform one-dimensional spline regression with automatic knot selection.
This package uses a penalized approach to select the most relevant knots.
B-splines of any degree can be fitted. More details in Goepp et al. (2018),
