Enhanced documentation for the class remfpca by providing more detailed descriptions of parameters.
Renamed the argument alpha to smooth_tuning in the remfpca R6 class to better reflect its role in controlling smoothness.
The new following functions are replaced to GitHub load data:
Introduced a joint_power() function as an alternative method to address smoothness issues in MFPCA, and a sequential_power() to tackle both sparsity and smoothness issues.
Added electrical_power_data and motion_sense_data as example datasets for multivariate functional data, with variables observed over a one-dimensional domain.
Added a detailed example for the class remfpca, demonstrating the regularized MFPCA approaches.
Added plotScores() function for visualizing functional principal component scores.
Introduced reconstructCurve() function to reconstruct original curves using estimated FPCs.
Enhanced plotMFPCA() with options for better customization and additional plotting styles.
Added examples to all exported functions for improved usability.
Extended estimateMFPCA() with new argument scale = TRUE/FALSE to control scaling before FPCA.
Improved internal documentation and inline comments for better maintainability.
Added more extensive unit tests for core functions.
In these updated functions, upon downloading the data files from GitHub into a temporary directory (not the global environment), the target objects are now returned within the function. This modification allows users to save the data into an arbitrary variable of their choice.
