Title: Meta-Analyses for Simultaneously Estimating Individual Means
Description: Implement meta-analyses for simultaneously estimating individual means with shrinkage,
isotonic regression and pretests. Include our original implementation of the isotonic regression via the pool-adjacent-violators algorithm (PAVA) algorithm.
This methodology is published in Taketomi et al.(2021) <doi:10.3390/axioms10040267>.
