Discover Probable Duplicates in Plant Genetic Resources Collections

Provides functions to aid the identification of probable/possible duplicates in Plant Genetic Resources (PGR) collections using 'passport databases' comprising of information records of each constituent sample. These include methods for cleaning the data, creation of a searchable Key Word in Context (KWIC) index of keywords associated with sample records and the identification of nearly identical records with similar information by fuzzy, phonetic and semantic matching of keywords.

Facilities for Simulating from ODE-Based Models

Facilities for running simulations from ordinary differential equation ('ODE') models, such as pharmacometrics and other compartmental models. A compilation manager translates the ODE model into C, compiles it, and dynamically loads the object code into R for improved computational efficiency. An event table object facilitates the specification of complex dosing regimens (optional) and sampling schedules. NB: The use of this package requires both C and Fortran compilers, for details on their use with R please see Section 6.3, Appendix A, and Appendix D in the "R Administration and Installation" manual. Also the code is mostly released under GPL. The 'VODE' and 'LSODA' are in the public domain. The information is available in the inst/COPYRIGHTS.
