I’m involved in the following R packages which are all available on CRAN and which can be directly installed in R after choosing a mirror using the command:
install.packages(“pkg_name”,dependencies=”Depends”)
Tandem Clustering with Invariant Coordinate Selection
Implementation of tandem clustering with invariant coordinate selection with different scatter matrices and several choices for the selection of components.
Blind source separation for multivariate spatio-temporal data
Simultaneous/joint diagonalization of local autocovariance matrices to estimate spatio-temporally uncorrelated random fields.
Stationary subspace analysis
Stationary subspace analysis (SSA) is a blind source separation (BSS) variant where stationary components are separated from non-stationary components. Several SSA methods for multivariate time series are provided here along with functions to simulate time series with time-varying variance and autocovariance.
M-Estimation of Shape for Data with Missing Values
M-estimators of location and shape following the power family are provided in the case of complete data and also when observations have missing values together with functions aiding their visualization.
Whitening Data as Preparation for Blind Source Separation
Whitening is the first step of almost all blind source separation (BSS) methods. A fast implementation of whitening for BSS is implemented to serve as a lightweight dependency for packages providing BSS methods.
Kernel Independent Component Analysis
The kernel independent component analysis (kernel ICA) method as introduced by Bach and Jordan (2003). The incomplete Cholesky decomposition used in kernel ICA is provided as separate function.

Blind Source Separation Methods Based on Joint Diagonalization and Some BSS Performance Criteria
Cardoso’s JADE algorithm as well as his functions for joint diagonalization are ported to R. Also several other blind source separation (BSS) methods, like AMUSE and SOBI, and some criteria for performance evaluation of BSS algorithms, are given.
Fast Computation of Multivariate M-estimators
The package implements the new algorithm for fast computation of M-scatter matrices using a partial Newton-Raphson procedure for several estimators.

Tools for Linear Dimension Reduction
Linear dimension reduction subspaces can be uniquely defined using orthogonal projection matrices. This package provides tools to compute distances between such subspaces and to compute the average subspace.
R Interface to ‘EPP-Lab’, a Java Program for Exploratory Projection Pursuit
An R Interface to ‘EPP-lab’ v1.0. ‘EPP-lab’ is a Java program for projection pursuit using genetic algorithms written by Alain Berro and S. Larabi Marie-Sainte and is included in the package. The ‘EPP-lab’ sources are available under https://github.com/fischuu/EPP-lab.git.
Multivariate Methods Based on the Oja Median and Related Concepts
Functions to calculate the Oja median, Oja signs and ranks and methods based upon them.
Multivariate Nonparametric Methods. An Approach Based on Spatial Signs and Ranks
Multivariate tests, estimates and methods based on the identity score, spatial sign score and spatial rank score are provided. The methods include one and c-sample problems, shape estimation and testing, linear regression and principal components.
