Description: Performs fragment analysis using genetic data coming from capillary electrophoresis machines. These are files with FSA extension which stands for FASTA-type file, and .txt files from Beckman CEQ 8000 system, both contain DNA fragment intensities read by machinery. In addition to visualization, it performs automatic scoring of SSRs (Sample Sequence Repeats; a type of genetic marker very common across the genome) and other type of PCR markers (standing for Polymerase Chain Reaction) in biparental populations such as F1, F2, BC (backcross), and diversity panels (collection of genetic diversity).

Description: Point and interval estimation in dual frame surveys. In contrast
to classic sampling theory, where only one sampling frame is considered,
dual frame methodology assumes that there are two frames available for
sampling and that, overall, they cover the entire target population. Then,
two probability samples (one from each frame) are drawn and information
collected is suitably combined to get estimators of the parameter of

Description: Random forests are a statistical learning method widely used in many areas of scientific research essentially for its ability to learn complex relationships between input and output variables and also its capacity to handle high-dimensional data. However, current random forests approaches are not flexible enough to handle longitudinal heterogeneous data.  In this package, we introduce Fréchet trees and Fréchet random forests, which allow to manage data for which input and output variables are curves. To this end, a new way of splitting the nodes of trees is introduced and the prediction procedures of trees and forests are generalized.
