USEF-R

Welcome to the R package usefr

This is an utility package where some useful functions frequently needed to identify the best fitted probability distribution model for a given data set are provided.

Status

This application is under development. Watch this repo or check for updates.

Dependences

This package depends, so far, from: BiocParallel, minpack.lm, numDeriv, copula. There are also other dependencies which are included in R by default, e.g., start

Install R dependencies:

    if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager")) install.packages("BiocManager")
    BiocManager::install()

    BiocManager::install(c("BiocParallel","minpack.lm", "numDeriv", "copula", 
                        "mclust", "nls2", "cubature", "mixdist", "pbapply"), 
                        dependencies=TRUE)

You can install usefr package from GitHub

   BiocManager::install("genomaths/usefr")
