GRCdata-package {GRCdata} | R Documentation |
Parameter inference and optimal designs for grouped and/or right-censored count data
Description
This package consists of two main functions: The first function uses a given grouped and/or right-censored grouping scheme and empirical data to infer parameters, and implements chi-square goodness-of-fit tests; The second function searches for the global optimal grouping scheme of grouped and/or right-censored count responses in surveys.
This R package is designed to implement methods and algorithms developed in the following papers and please cite these articles at your convenience:

To install the package "GRCdata_1.0.tar.gz", one may place this file in the working directory/folder of R, and type
install.packages("GRCdata", repos = NULL, type = "source")
To check the current working directory of R, one may type
getwd()
To see the source code, one could extract the package “GRCdata_1.0.tar.gz”.
There would be two directories/folders: man
and R
. The source code
is under the R
directory/folder.
