#' @title Analyze fitted curve parameters to detect significant shifts in 
#'   melting points.
#' @description Compute p-values for the pairwise comparisons of melting curve 
#'   shifts between different conditions.
#' @details The \code{pValParams} argument is a list that can contain optional parameters 
#'   for the chosen p-value computation \code{pValMethod}. The following options are
#'   available: \enumerate{ \item \code{pValMethod = "robustZ"}:
#'   
#'   \code{pValParams=list(binWidth=[your_binWidth])}.}
#' @return A data frame in which the fit results are stored row-wise for each 
#'   protein.

#'  resultTable <- tpptrAnalyzeMeltingCurves(fittedData)
#'  subset(resultTable, fulfills_all_4_requirements)$Protein_ID
#' }
#' 
#' @param data list of ExpressionSets containing fold changes and metadata. Their
#'   featureData fields contain the fitted melting curve parameters.
#' @param pValMethod Method for p-value computation. Currently restricted to
#'   'robustZ' (see Cox & Mann (2008)).
#' @param pValParams optional list of parameters for p-value computation.
#' @param pValFilter optional list of filtering criteria to be applied before 
#'   p-value computation.
