The Patient Rule Induction Method (PRIM) is typically
  used for "bump hunting" data mining to identify regions with abnormally
  high concentrations of data with large or small values. This package
  extends this methodology so that it can be applied to binary classification
  problems and used for prediction.

Calculates the sup MZ value to detect the unknown structural break points under Heteroskedasticity as given in Ahmed et al. (2017) (<DOI: 10.1080/03610926.2016.1235200>).

Ten distributions supplementing those built into R.
  Inverse Gauss, Kruskal-Wallis, Kendall's Tau, Friedman's chi
  squared, Spearman's rho, maximum F ratio, the Pearson product
  moment correlation coefficient, Johnson distributions, normal
  scores and generalized hypergeometric distributions.

Provides basic functions that support an implementation of object case (Case 1) best-worst scaling: a function for converting a two-level orthogonal main-effect design/balanced incomplete block design into questions; two functions for creating a data set suitable for analysis; a function for calculating count-based scores; a function for calculating shares of preference; and a function for generating artificial responses to questions. See Louviere et al. (2015) <doi:10.1017/CBO9781107337855> for details on best-worst scaling, and Aizaki and Fogarty (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.jocm.2022.100394> for the package.

Provides three basic functions that support an implementation of Case 2 (profile case) best-worst scaling. The first is to convert an orthogonal main-effect design into questions, the second is to create a dataset suitable for analysis, and the third is to calculate count-based scores. For details, see Aizaki and Fogarty (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.jocm.2019.100171>.

Provides basic functions that support an implementation of multi-profile case (Case 3) best-worst scaling (BWS). Case 3 BWS is a question-based survey method to elicit people's preferences for attribute levels. Case 3 BWS constructs various combinations of attribute levels (profiles) and then asks respondents to select the best and worst profiles in each choice set. A main function creates a dataset for the analysis from the choice sets and the responses to the questions. For details on Case 3 BWS, refer to Louviere et al. (2015) <doi:10.1017/CBO9781107337855>.
