simpson


A vector of the values at which the function is to be plotted. 



A vector with the values of the function at the corresponding x-values.



A function that calculates the approximate value of the definite integral of a continuous function. In other words, it can help plot the area under the curve of the plotted 
function between two limits.


integration

area under the curve

The package is the R-version of the C-based software \bold{CASPAR} (Kaderali,2006: \url{http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/22/12/1495}). It is meant to help predict survival times in the presence of high-dimensional explanatory covariates. The model is a piecewise baseline hazard Cox regression model with an Lq-norm based prior that selects for the most important regression coefficients, and in turn
the most relevant covariates for survival analysis. It was primarily tried on gene expression and aCGH data, but can be used on any other type of high-dimensional data and in
disciplines other than biology and medicine.
