hstats vs rjd3highfreq
A side-by-side editorial comparison of hstats and rjd3highfreq — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
hstats vs rjd3highfreq: at a glance
What is hstats?
hstats settled into maintenance after its 1.0 restructuring, with model coverage the only thing still growing.
hstats computes Friedman's H-statistics, partial dependence, ICE curves and permutation importance for any model exposing a prediction function. The releases in view are consolidation: performance work on plain data.frames, ICE facetting for multioutput models, ranger survival support, and a ggplot 4.0 compatibility pass in 2025. The package moved to the ModelOriented organisation in 1.2.0.
What is rjd3highfreq?
rjd3highfreq ships whatever the Java side ships, and only occasionally says what that was.
An R wrapper around JDemetra+ routines for seasonal adjustment of high-frequency time series, built on fractional airline decomposition. Only three releases are on record, roughly one every six months, and two of them describe nothing beyond updated .jar files. The package is a thin binding whose substance lives in the Java libraries it packages, and the release notes reflect that literally.

hstats
0.0ANALYTICS
hstats settled into maintenance after its 1.0 restructuring, with model coverage the only thing still growing.
◆ Current state
hstats computes Friedman's H-statistics, partial dependence, ICE curves and permutation importance for any model exposing a prediction function. The releases in view are consolidation: performance work on plain data.frames, ICE facetting for multioutput models, ranger survival support, and a ggplot 4.0 compatibility pass in 2025. The package moved to the ModelOriented organisation in 1.2.0.
◆ Where it's heading
The structural work — the hstats_matrix object, quantile approximation, revised plotting — landed in 1.0.0 just outside this window, and nothing since has changed the package's shape. What continues is model-coverage plumbing: mlr3 classification modes, ranger survival behind a survival argument, and factor predictions added in 1.1.0 then removed again in 1.2.0. The most recent releases are compatibility-driven, tracking ggplot2 rather than the interaction statistics.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next release to be another dependency-compatibility pass or a new model backend working out of the box, rather than new interaction statistics.
rjd3highfreq
0.0ANALYTICS
rjd3highfreq ships whatever the Java side ships, and only occasionally says what that was.
◆ Current state
An R wrapper around JDemetra+ routines for seasonal adjustment of high-frequency time series, built on fractional airline decomposition. Only three releases are on record, roughly one every six months, and two of them describe nothing beyond updated .jar files. The package is a thin binding whose substance lives in the Java libraries it packages, and the release notes reflect that literally.
◆ Where it's heading
The one release with detail points at where the work actually is: 2.4.1 exposes eps and deps parameters on fractionalAirlineDecomposition(), controlling the optimisation routine's convergence precision and the step size for its numerical derivatives. That is tuning access for users whose series were not converging well under the defaults, and it is the only user-facing surface change visible here. The earlier entry even appears under a different package name, rjd3xhighfreq, which suggests some instability in how this line is published.
◆ Prediction
Expect further releases tracking JDemetra+ .jar versions, with R-level parameters exposed only as specific estimation problems surface; the entries do not support a firmer read than that.
