Package: turboEM
Title: A Suite of Convergence Acceleration Schemes for EM, MM and other
fixed-point algorithms
Description: Algorithms for accelerating the convergence of slow,
monotone sequences from smooth, contraction mapping such as the
EM and MM algorithms. It can be used to accelerate any smooth,
linearly convergent acceleration scheme. A tutorial style
introduction to this package is available in a vignette on the
CRAN download page or, when the package is loaded in an R
session, with vignette("turboEM").
Depends: R (>= 2.12.0), doParallel, foreach, numDeriv, quantreg
