mc.calc.Student

Calculate bootstrap confidence intervals for intercept, slope or bias
given a vector of bootstrap point estimates.

Regression methods to quantify the relation between two measurement
methods are provided by this package. In particular it addresses regression
problems with errors in both variables and without repeated measurements. It
implements the CLSI recommendations (see J. A. Budd et al.
(2018, <https://clsi.org/standards/products/method-evaluation/documents/ep09/>)
for analytical method comparison and bias estimation using patient samples.
Furthermore, algorithms for Theil-Sen and equivariant Passing-Bablok estimators
are implemented, see F. Dufey (2020, <doi:10.1515/ijb-2019-0157>) and
J. Raymaekers and F. Dufey (2022, <arXiv:2202:08060>).
A comprehensive overview over the implemented methods and references can be found
in the manual pages "mcr-package" and "mcreg".
