Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : r-noncran-design Version : 1.1.6 Upstream Author : Frank Harrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://hesweb1.med.virginia.edu/biostat/rms * License : GPL Description : Regression modeling strategies
Design is one of two packages by Frank Harrell and requires the other, Hmisc. Design provides the code supporting Harrell's 2002 book on 'Regression Modeling Strategies'. I intend to stick with the convention of calling the (Debian) source package the same as the (source) R package -- design -- but then normalizing on r-noncran-design as done by prior packages maintained by Chris Lawrence and myself. An early version is at http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/debian/misc/ and its dpkg -f output is below [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> dpkg -f debian/r-noncran-design_1.1.6-1_i386.deb Package: r-noncran-design Version: 1.1.6-1 Section: math Priority: optional Architecture: i386 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.1-1), libg2c0 (>= 1:3.3-0pre9), libgcc1 (>= 1:3.3-0pre9), r-base-core (>= 1.7.1), r-noncran-hmisc Installed-Size: 3244 Maintainer: Dirk Eddelbuettel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Source: design Description: GNU R regression modeling strategies tools by Frank Harrell Regression modeling, testing, estimation, validation, graphics, prediction, and typesetting by storing enhanced model design attributes in the fit. Design is a collection of about 180 functions that assist and streamline modeling, especially for biostatistical and epidemiologic applications. It also contains new functions for binary and ordinal logistic regression models and the Buckley-James multiple regression model for right-censored responses, and implements penalized maximum likelihood estimation for logistic and ordinary linear models. Design works with almost any regression model, but it was especially written to work with logistic regression, Cox regression, accelerated failure time models, ordinary linear models, and the Buckley-James model. .
