  <dc:title>Working with Rotation Data</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package rotations version 1.6.7</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Tools for working with rotational data, including
    simulation from the most commonly used distributions on SO(3),
    methods for different Bayes, mean and median type estimators for
    the central orientation of a sample, confidence/credible
    regions for the central orientation based on those estimators and
    a novel visualization technique for rotation data.  Most recently,
    functions to identify potentially discordant (outlying) values
    have been added.  References: Bingham, Melissa A. and Nordman, Dan J. and Vardeman, Steve B. (2009),
