Functions to import and handle infrared spectra (import from '.csv' and
  Thermo Galactic's '.spc', baseline correction, binning, clipping,
  interpolating, smoothing, averaging, adding, subtracting, dividing, 
  multiplying, atmospheric correction, 'tidyverse' methods, plotting).

Iterated race is an extension of the Iterated F-race method for
             the automatic configuration of optimization algorithms, that is,
             (offline) tuning their parameters by finding the most appropriate
             settings given a set of instances of an optimization problem.

Graphical visualization tools for analyzing the data produced by 'irace'. The 'iraceplot' package enables users to analyze the performance and the parameter space data sampled by the configuration during the search process. It provides a set of functions that generate different plots to visualize the configurations sampled during the execution of 'irace' and their performance. The functions just require the log file generated by 'irace' and, in some cases, they can be used with user-provided data.

Fit a predictive model using iteratively reweighted boosting (IRBoost) to minimize robust loss functions within the CC-family (concave-convex). This constitutes an application of iteratively reweighted convex optimization (IRCO), where convex optimization is performed using the functional descent boosting algorithm. IRBoost assigns weights to facilitate outlier identification. Applications include robust generalized linear models and robust accelerated failure time models. Wang (2025) <doi:10.6339/24-JDS1138>.

Provides implementation of various correlation coefficients of common use in
  Information Retrieval. In particular, it includes Kendall (1970, isbn:0852641990) tau coefficient
  as well as tau_a and tau_b for the treatment of ties. It also includes Yilmaz et al. (2008)
  <doi:10.1145/1390334.1390435> tauAP correlation coefficient, and versions tauAP_a and tauAP_b
  developed by Urbano and Marrero (2017) <doi:10.1145/3121050.3121106> to cope with ties.
