abstract: 'GPU versions of base R statistics for data with many variables, using the
  NVIDIA ''CUDA'' toolkit: correlation matrices (Pearson, Spearman and Kendall) and
  their tests, the strongest correlated pairs among tens of thousands of variables
  without forming the matrix, association scans with covariates as in expression quantitative
  trait loci studies (Shabalin 2012 <https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/bts163>),
  permutation tests with Westfall-Young maxT adjustment, distance matrices, hierarchical
  and k-means clustering, Granger causality tests, B-spline mutual information, principal
  components, and least-squares fits. Results agree with the base R functions they
  replace. Without ''CUDA'' the package installs, and its functions explain how to
  get a ''CUDA'' build. Described in Buckner et al. (2010) <https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btp608>.'
