Fit composite Gaussian process (CGP) models as described in Ba and Joseph (2012) "Composite Gaussian Process Models for Emulating Expensive Functions", Annals of Applied Statistics. The CGP model is capable of approximating complex surfaces that are not second-order stationary.  Important functions in this package are CGP, print.CGP, summary.CGP, predict.CGP and plotCGP.

The compound growth rate indicates the percentage change of a specific variable over a defined period. It is calculated using non-linear models, particularly the exponential model. To estimate the compound growth rates, the growth model is first converted to semilog form and then analyzed using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression. This package has been developed using concept of Shankar et al. (2022)<doi:10.3389/fsufs.2023.1208898>.

Functions for performing quick observations or evaluations of data, including a variety of ways to list objects by size, class, etc.  The functions 'seqle' and 'reverse.seqle' mimic the base 'rle' but can search for linear sequences. The function 'splatnd' allows the user to generate zero-argument commands without the need for 'makeActiveBinding' .  Functions provided to convert from any base to any other base, and to find the n-th greatest max or n-th least min.  In addition, functions which mimic Unix shell commands, including 'head', 'tail' ,'pushd' ,and 'popd'. Various other goodies included as well.
