Description:
Implements discrete curvature estimation for ordered planar point sequences using circumcenter geometry on consecutive triplets, exposed through compiled C plus plus (C++) code via 'Rcpp' for speed and numerical robustness. The package is useful for objective elbow detection in multivariate workflows, especially principal component analysis (PCA), where selecting the number of retained components can be subjective. It provides a 'shiny' interface that supports upload of raw datasets or explained-variance tables, computes Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) sampling-adequacy diagnostics, evaluates individual and cumulative variance curves, and reports curvature- based decision rules (m* and m**) with visual summaries for reproducible component-selection decisions.
