Providing ways to estimate the value of European stock options 
    given historical stock price data. It includes functions for calculating option values 
    based on autoregressive–moving-average (ARMA) models and generates information about these models. 
    This package is made to be easy to understand and for financial analysis capabilities.

Using sparse precision matricies and Choleski factorization simulates data that is auto-regressive.

An efficient 'Rcpp' implementation of the Adaptive Rejection Metropolis Sampling (ARMS) algorithm proposed by Gilks, W. R., Best, N. G. and Tan, K. K. C. (1995) <doi:10.2307/2986138>. This allows for sampling from a univariate target probability distribution specified by its (potentially unnormalised) log density.

A cross-platform R framework that facilitates processing of any number of Affymetrix microarray samples regardless of computer system.  The only parameter that limits the number of chips that can be processed is the amount of available disk space.  The Aroma Framework has successfully been used in studies to process tens of thousands of arrays.  This package has actively been used since 2006.

DEPRECATED. Do not start building new projects based on this package. (The (in-house) APD file format was initially developed to store Affymetrix probe-level data, e.g. normalized CEL intensities.  Chip types can be added to APD file and similar to methods in the affxparser package, this package provides methods to read APDs organized by units (probesets).  In addition, the probe elements can be arranged optimally such that the elements are guaranteed to be read in order when, for instance, data is read unit by unit.  This speeds up the read substantially.  This package is supporting the Aroma framework and should not be used elsewhere.)

Methods for analyzing DNA copy-number data.  Specifically,
  this package implements the multi-source copy-number normalization (MSCN)
  method for normalizing copy-number data obtained on various platforms and
  technologies.  It also implements the TumorBoost method for normalizing
  paired tumor-normal SNP data.
