Provides a suite of functions that fit models that use PPM type priors for partitions.
                Models include hierarchical Gaussian and probit ordinal models with  a (covariate 
                dependent) PPM.  If a covariate dependent product partition model is selected, 
                then all the options detailed in Page, G.L.; Quintana, F.A. (2018) 
                <doi:10.1007/s11222-017-9777-z> are available.  If covariate values are missing, 
                then the approach detailed in Page, G.L.; Quintana, F.A.; Mueller, P (2020) 
                <doi:10.1080/10618600.2021.1999824> is employed.   Also included in the package is 
                a function that fits a Gaussian likelihood spatial product  partition model that is 
                detailed in Page, G.L.; Quintana, F.A. (2016)  <doi:10.1214/15-BA971>, and 
                multivariate PPM change point models that are detailed in Quinlan, J.J.; Page, G.L.; 
                Castro, L.M. (2023) <doi:10.1214/22-BA1344>. In addition, a function that fits a 
                univariate or bivariate functional data model that employs a PPM or a PPMx to 
                cluster curves based on B-spline coefficients is provided.

Assessment for statistically-based PPQ sampling plan, including calculating the passing probability, optimizing the baseline and high performance cutoff points, visualizing the PPQ plan and power dynamically. The analytical idea is based on the simulation methods from the textbook Burdick, R. K., LeBlond, D. J., Pfahler, L. B., Quiroz, J., Sidor, L., Vukovinsky, K., & Zhang, L. (2017). Statistical Methods for CMC Applications. In Statistical Applications for Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) in the Pharmaceutical Industry (pp. 227-250). Springer, Cham.

Provides functionality for Bayesian analysis of replication studies using power prior approaches (Pawel et al., 2023) <doi:10.1007/s11749-023-00888-5>.

A toolbox for deterministic, probabilistic and privacy-preserving record linkage techniques. Combines the functionality of the 'Merge ToolBox' (<https://www.record-linkage.de>) with current privacy-preserving techniques.
