Descriptive statistics for large data tend to be low resolution on the tails. 
    Whisker Odds generate a table of descriptive statistics for large data. This is the same as
    letter-values, but with an alternative naming of depths which allow for depths beyond 26. For 
    a reference to letter-values see 'Heike Hofmann' and 'Hadley Wickham' and 'Karen Kafadar' (2017) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2017.1305277>.

Shows the relationship between an independent and dependent variable through Weight of Evidence and Information Value.

Implements an automated binning of numeric variables and factors with
 respect to a dichotomous target variable.
 Two approaches are provided: An implementation of fine and coarse classing that
 merges granular classes and levels step by step. And a tree-like approach that
 iteratively segments the initial bins via binary splits. Both procedures merge,
 respectively split, bins based on similar weight of evidence (WOE) values and
 stop via an information value (IV) based criteria.
 The package can be used with single variables or an entire data frame. It provides
 flexible tools for exploring different binning solutions and for deploying them to
 (new) data.

Implements a spatiotemporal boundary detection model with a dissimilarity
    metric for areal data with inference in a Bayesian setting using Markov chain
    Monte Carlo (MCMC). The response variable can be modeled as Gaussian (no nugget),
    probit or Tobit link and spatial correlation is introduced at each time point
    through a conditional autoregressive (CAR) prior. Temporal correlation is introduced
    through a hierarchical structure and can be specified as exponential or first-order
    autoregressive. Full details of the package can be found in the accompanying vignette.
    Furthermore, the details of the package can be found in "Diagnosing Glaucoma 
    Progression with Visual Field Data Using a Spatiotemporal Boundary Detection Method", 
    by Berchuck et al (2018), <arXiv:1805.11636>. The paper is in press at the Journal of 
    the American Statistical Association.
