care 1.1.10 – High-Dimensional Regression and CAR Score Variable Selection

care 1.1.10

:: DESCRIPTION

The “care” package a novel multivariate algorithm for large scale SNP selection using CAR score regression, a promising new approach for prioritizing biomarkers.  CAR scores measure the correlation between the response and the Mahalanobis-decorrelated predictors. The squared CAR score is a natural measure of variable importance and provides a canonical ordering of variables. This package provides functions for estimating CAR scores, for variable selection using CAR scores, and for estimating corresponding regression coefficients. Both shrinkage as well as empirical estimators are available.

SLR 1.4.3 – Sitewise Likehood Ratio Estimation of Selection

SLR 1.4.3

:: DESCRIPTION

SLR (Sitewise Likehood Ratio) is a program to detect sites in coding DNA that are unusually conserved and/or unusually variable (that is, evolving under purify or positive selection) by analysing the pattern of changes for an alignment of sequences on an evolutionary tree. The strength of selection at each site is determined by comparing the rate of nonsynonymous (amino acid changing) substitutions to that of synonymous (silent) substituions, the latter assumed to be invisible to selection and so evolving in a strictly neutral fashion.
