Nonparametric kernel smoothing methods for mixed data types
Description
This package provides a variety of nonparametric (and
        semiparametric) kernel methods that seamlessly handle a mix of
        continuous, unordered, and ordered factor data types. We would
        like to gratefully acknowledge support from the Natural
        Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada
