Fit various smoothing spline models. Includes an ssr() function for smoothing
spline regression, an nnr() function for nonparametric nonlinear regression, an snr()
function for semiparametric nonlinear regression, an slm() function for semiparametric
linear mixed-effects models, and an snm() function for semiparametric nonlinear
mixed-effects models. See Wang (2011) <doi:10.1201/b10954> for an overview.

Implements New and Existing Association Indices for Constructing
Animal Social Networks
Implements several new association indices that can control for various types of errors. Also includes existing association indices and functions for simulating the effects of different rates of error on estimates of association strength between individuals using each method.

Calculate the Assortativity Coefficient of Weighted and Binary
Networks
Functions to calculate the assortment of vertices in social networks.  This can be measured on both weighted and binary networks, with discrete or continuous vertex values.

Translates a R Function into an External Pointer to a C++
Function
Enable translation of a tiny subset of R to C++. The user has to define a R function which gets translated. For a full list of possible functions check the documentation. After translation an external pointer to the C++ function is returned to the user. The intention of the package is to generate fast functions which can be used as ode-system or during optimization.

Translates an R Function to a C++ Function
Enable translation of a tiny subset of R to C++. The user has to define a R function which gets translated. For a full list of possible functions check the documentation. After translation an R function is returned which is a shallow wrapper around the C++ code. Alternatively an external pointer to the C++ function is returned to the user. The intention of the package is to generate fast functions which can be used as ode-system or during optimization.
