Details about removed functions in PowerTOST.
type1error.2TOST was designed to calculate the type I error (TIE) rate of two simultaneous TOST procedures with some specified correlation of the parameters. It suffered from poor precision to obtain the TIE via simulations.
Due to the intersection-union principle the TIE is always upper bounded to α by theory and hence, type1error.2TOST was removed in version 1.4-7.
power.scABEL2 and sampleN.scABEL2 were deprecated in version 1.4-1. In power.scABEL and sampleN.scABEL the regulator component "est_method" is used for switching between simulations based on the EMA’s ANOVA evaluation or ISC evaluation, respectively.
power.scABEL2 and sampleN.scABEL2 were removed in version 1.4-3.
power2.TOST was deprecated in version 1.2-6 since power.TOST was modified in order to handle unbalanced sequences. power2.TOST was removed in version in version 1.2-7.
The functions power.NTIDFDA, sampleN.NTIDFDA and pa.NTIDFDA were deprecated in
version 1.5-4 and were removed in version 1.5-6.
