New package profdpm with initial version 1.0
Package: profdpm
Type: Package
Title: Profile Dirichlet Process Mixtures
Version: 1.0
Date: 2009-04-09
Author: Matt Shotwell
Maintainer: Matt Shotwell
Description: This package performs profile inference for models utilizing the Dirichlet process (DP) and Dirichlet motivated process (DMP) mixtures. This method is not based on Markov chain Monte Carlo methods, as are most other mechanisms of inference in DP and DMP mixtures. This method searches for the maximum posterior (MAP) estimate for the cluster indicators in the DP or DMP mixture model.

Package mefa updated to version 3.1-4 with previous version 3.1-3 dated 2009-10-15

Author: Peter Solymos
Title: Multivariate Data Handling in Ecology and Biogeography
Description: A framework package aimed to provide standardized computational environment for specialist work via object classes to represent the data coded by samples, taxa and segments (i.e. subpopulations, repeated measures). It supports easy processing of the data along with cross tabulation and relational data tables for samples and taxa. An object of class `mefa' is a project specific compendium of the data and can be easily used in further analyses. Methods are provided for extraction, aggregation, conversion, plotting, summary and reporting of `mefa' objects. Reports can be generated in plain text or LaTeX format. Vignette contains worked examples.

Package estout updated to version 0.8-1 with previous version 0.7-1 dated 2009-11-11

Author: Felix Kaminsky , inspired by the estout package for Stata.
Title: Estimates Output
Description: The function collection stores the estimates of several models and formats it to a table of the form estimate starred and std.err. below. The default output is LaTeX but output to CSV for later editing in a spreadsheet tool is possible as well. It works for linear models (lm) and panel models from the "plm"-package (plm). The added "descsto" and "desctab" enable you to export descriptive statistics of data-frames and single variables to LaTeX and CSV.

Package cmprskContin updated to version 1.5 with previous version 1.3 dated 2009-08-28

Author: Peter Gilbert, Ian McKeague, and Yanqing Sun
Title: Continuous mark-specific relative risks for two groups
Description: Estimation and testing of continuous mark-specific relative risks in two groups as described in Gilbert, P., McKeague, I. and Sun, Y. (2008) The 2-sample problem for failure rates depending on a continuous mark: an application to vaccine efficacy. Biostatistics 9, 2, 263-276. This package implements the methods presented in the paper for testing mark-specific hazards ratios and for estimation of mark-specific incidence ratios that are cumulative in time or cumulative in both time and the continuous mark.
