Provides functions for estimating the attributable burden of disease due to risk factors. The posterior simulation is performed using arm::sim as described in Gelman, Hill (2012) <doi:10.1017/CBO9780511790942> and the attributable burden method is based on Nielsen, Krause, Molbak <doi:10.1111/irv.12564>.

Various functions to compute the area under the curve of selected measures: The area under the sensitivity curve (AUSEC), the area under the specificity curve (AUSPC), the area under the accuracy curve (AUACC), and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC). Support for visualization and partial areas is included.

Performs statistical testing to compare predictive 
	models based on multiple observations of the A' statistic (also known as 
	Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve, or AUC). 
	Specifically, it implements a testing method based on the equivalence 
	between the A' statistic and the Wilcoxon statistic. 
	For more information, see Hanley and McNeil (1982) <doi:10.1148/radiology.143.1.7063747>.

Estimates a first-price auction model with conditionally independent
  private values as described in MacKay (2020) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.3096534>. The
  model allows for unobserved heterogeneity that is common to all bidders in
  addition to observable heterogeneity.

Interfaces to audio devices (mainly sample-based) from R to allow recording and playback of audio. Built-in devices include Windows MM, Mac OS X AudioUnits and PortAudio (the last one is very experimental).

Facilitates plotting audiometric data (mostly) by preparing the coordinate system according to standards, given e. g. in American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (2005), <doi:10.1044/policy.GL2005-00014>.

Creates pre- and post- intervention scattergrams based on audiometric data. These scattergrams are formatted for publication in Otology & Neurotology and other otolaryngology journals. For more details, see Gurgel et al (2012) <doi:10.1177/0194599812458401>, Oghalai and Jackler (2016) <doi:10.1177/0194599816638314>.
