This package offers three important components: (1) to construct a use-defined linear mixed model, (2) to employ one of linear mixed model approaches: minimum norm quadratic unbiased estimation (MINQUE) (Rao, 1971) for variance component estimation and random effect prediction; and (3) to employ a jackknife resampling technique to conduct various statistical tests. In addition, this package provides the function for model or data evaluations.This R package offers fast computations for large data sets analyses for various irregular data structures.

Using this package, one can determine the minimum sample size required so that the absolute deviation of the sample mean and the population mean of a distribution becomes less than some pre-determined epsilon, i.e. it helps the user to determine the minimum sample size required to attain the pre-fixed precision level by minimizing the difference between the sample mean and population mean.

Using this package, one can determine the minimum sample size required so that the mean square error of the sample mean and the population mean of a distribution becomes less than some pre-determined epsilon, i.e. it helps the user to determine the minimum sample size required to attain the pre-fixed precision level by minimizing the difference between the sample mean and population mean.

This is a R implementation of "Minimum SNPs" software as described in "Price E.P., Inman-Bamber, J., Thiruvenkataswamy, V., Huygens, F and Giffard, P.M."

Compute effect sizes and their sampling variances from factorial experimental designs. The package supports calculation of simple effects, overall effects, and interaction effects for use in factorial meta-analyses. See Gurevitch et al. (2000) <doi:10.1086/303337>, Morris et al.
