bayesbio (version 1.0.0)

Miscellaneous Functions for Bioinformatics and Bayesian Statistics

Description

A hodgepodge of hopefully helpful functions. Two of these perform shrinkage estimation: one using a simple weighted method where the user can specify the degree of shrinkage required, and one using James-Stein shrinkage estimation for the case of unequal variances.
