Estimates corrected Procrustean correlation between matrices for removing overfitting effect. Coissac Eric and Gonindard-Melodelima Christelle (2019) <doi:10.1101/842070>.

Contains functions to simulate the most commonly used 
    'SAS®' procedures.  Specifically, the package aims to 
    simulate the functionality of 'proc freq', 'proc means', 'proc ttest',
    'proc reg', 'proc transpose', 'proc sort', and 'proc print'. 
    The simulation will include recreating 
    all statistics with the highest fidelity possible.

A direct and flexible method for estimating an ICA model. This approach estimates the densities for each component directly via a tilted Gaussian. The tilt functions are estimated via a GAM Poisson model. Details can be found in "Elements of Statistical Learning (2nd Edition)" in Section 14.7.4.

Implements the methods proposed by Olley, G.S. and Pakes, A. (1996) <doi:10.2307/2171831>, Levinsohn, J. and Petrin, A. (2003) <doi:10.1111/1467-937X.00246>, Ackerberg, D.A. and Caves, K. and Frazer, G. (2015) <doi:10.3982/ECTA13408> and Wooldridge, J.M. (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.econlet.2009.04.026> for structural productivity estimation .

Create a project directory structure, along with typical files
    for that project.  This allows projects to be quickly and easily created,
    as well as for them to be standardized. Designed specifically with scientists
    in mind (mainly bio-medical researchers, but likely applies to other fields).

Fast and user friendly implementation of nonparametric estimators
    for censored event history (survival) analysis. Kaplan-Meier and
    Aalen-Johansen method.

Levels and changes of productivity and profitability are measured with various indices.
  The package contains the multiplicatively complete Färe-Primont, Fisher, Hicks-Moorsteen, 
  Laspeyres, Lowe, and Paasche indices, as well as the classic Malmquist productivity index.
  Färe-Primont and Lowe indices verify the transitivity property and can therefore be used for 
  multilateral or multitemporal comparison.
  Fisher, Hicks-Moorsteen, Laspeyres, Malmquist, and Paasche indices are not transitive and are 
  only to be used for binary comparison.
  All indices can also be decomposed into different components, providing insightful information 
  on the sources of productivity and profitability changes.
  In the use of Malmquist productivity index, the technological change index can be further 
  decomposed into bias technological change components.
  The package also allows to prohibit technological regression (negative technological change). In 
  the case of the Fisher, Hicks-Moorsteen, Laspeyres, Paasche and the transitive Färe-Primont 
  and Lowe indices, it is furthermore possible to rule out technological change. 
  Deflated shadow prices can also be obtained. Besides, the package allows parallel computing as 
  an option, depending on the user's computer configuration. 
  All computations are carried out with the nonparametric Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), and 
  several assumptions regarding returns to scale are available.
  All DEA linear programs are implemented using 'lp_solve'.
