ERAF: A R Package for Regression and Forecasting

We present a package for R language containing a set of tools for regression using ensembles of learning machines and for time series forecasting. The package contains implementations of Bagging and Adaboost for regression, and algorithms for computing mutual information, autocorrelation and false nearest neighbors.
