  <dc:title>Classification of Sparseness in 2-by-2 Categorical Data</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package nose version 1.0.5</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides functions for classifying sparseness in 2 x 2 categorical data where one or more cells have zero counts. The classification uses three widely applied summary measures: Risk Difference (RD), Relative Risk (RR), and Odds Ratio (OR). Helps in selecting suitable continuity corrections for zero cells in multi-centre or meta-analysis studies. Also supports sensitivity analysis and can detect phenomena such as Simpson's paradox. The methodology is based on Subbiah and Srinivasan (2008) &lt;doi:10.1016/j.spl.2008.06.023&gt;.</dc:description>
