Overview

About

Maintained by Klaus NordhausenFirst published 2026-06-101 releasesCRAN page ↗

Independent component analysis based on distance correlation, including a robust variant using the bowl transformation. The package provides user-facing implementations of distance covariance and distance correlation, including memory-efficient blockwise computations for large data sets. It includes a sequential ICA estimator based on minimizing distance correlation, as well as tools for analyzing serial dependence via distance autocorrelation, dependograms, and permutation-based tests. In addition, it provides functions for testing serial dependence based on distance correlation and the Hilbert–Schmidt independence criterion. The methodology is related to Matteson and Tsay (2017) doi:10.1080/01621459.2016.1150851 and to the robust framework of Leyder et al. (2026) doi:10.1007/s11634-026-00674-9.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("dcorBSS", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-dcorbss

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-dcorBSS

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
