  <dc:title>Arc-Length Statistics: Goodness of Fit, Distributions and a
Bayesian Test</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package arcstat version 0.3.0</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Inference from the arc length of statistical functions. Three tools share one pure-C
    back-end: a goodness-of-fit test based on the arc length of the probability plot, with an analytic
    saddlepoint null and sensitivity to local density structure that the empirical-distribution tests
    miss; two constructions that build a distribution from the arc length of its defining curve, the
    arc-length generator and the quantile arc-length family estimated by L-moments; and a Bayesian
    nonparametric arc-length goodness-of-fit test on the Dirichlet-process posterior. The same C sources
    back the 'Python' package 'arcstat'.</dc:description>
