This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-acepack package of acepack, a
collection of two functions [ace() and avas()] for selecting
regression transformations that was written by Phil Spector, Jerome
Friedman, Robert Tibshirani, and Thomas Lumley.
This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.
The sources were downloaded from
http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/
The package was renamed from its upstream name 'acepack' to 'r-cran-acepack'
to fit the pattern of CRAN (and non-CRAN) packages for R.
The acepack function ace() is in the public domain; avas() is freely
available at www.statlib.org.
The file README states
This package is based on public domain S and FORTRAN code for AVAS by
Tibshirani, and on FORTRAN code for ACE from Statlib, written by Spector
and Friedman.
The file README.avas states
This archive contains new S code for avas (additivity and variance
stabilization). It is used to estimate transformations for regression.
It is officially a public domain product.
The file ace.doc contains the following header
C ESTIMATE MULTIPLE OPTIMAL TRANSFORMATIONS FOR REGRESSION AND
C CORRELATION BY ALTERNATING CONDITIONAL EXPECTATION ESTIMATES.
