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)
