Statistical methods for ROC surface analysis in three-class classification problems for clustered data and in presence of covariates. In particular, the package allows to obtain covariate-specific point and interval estimation for:
  (i) true class fractions (TCFs) at fixed pairs of thresholds;
  (ii) the ROC surface;
  (iii) the volume under ROC surface (VUS);
  (iv) the optimal pairs of thresholds.
  Methods considered in points (i), (ii) and (iv) are proposed and discussed in To et al. (2022) <doi:10.1177/09622802221089029>. Referring to point (iv), three  different selection criteria are implemented: Generalized Youden Index (GYI), Closest to Perfection (CtP) and Maximum Volume (MV). Methods considered in point (iii) are proposed and discussed in Xiong et al. (2018) <doi:10.1177/0962280217742539>. Visualization tools are also provided. We refer readers to the articles cited above for all details.

Implements a new method 'ClussCluster' descried in Ge Jiang and Jun Li, "Simultaneous Detection of Clusters and Cluster-Specific Genes in High-throughput Transcriptome Data" (Unpublished).
	Simultaneously perform clustering analysis and signature 	gene selection on high-dimensional transcriptome data sets. 	To do so, 'ClussCluster' incorporates a Lasso-type 	regularization penalty term to the objective function of K-	means so that cell-type-specific signature genes can be 	identified while clustering the cells.

Tests, utilities, and case studies for analyzing significance in
  clustered binary matched-pair data. The central function clust.bin.pair uses
  one of several tests to calculate a Chi-square statistic. Implemented are the
  tests Eliasziw (1991) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780101211>, Obuchowski (1998)
  <doi:10.1002/(SICI)1097-0258(19980715)17:13%3C1495::AID-SIM863%3E3.0.CO;2-I>,
  Durkalski (2003) <doi:10.1002/sim.1438>, and Yang (2010)
  <doi:10.1002/bimj.201000035> with McNemar (1947) <doi:10.1007/BF02295996>
  included for comparison. The utility functions nested.to.contingency and
  paired.to.contingency convert data between various useful formats. Thyroids
  and psychiatry are the canonical datasets from Obuchowski and Petryshen (1989)
  <doi:10.1016/0165-1781(89)90196-0> respectively.
