Further information about this work, including additional data and experimental methodology, is available at http://jefferislab.org/si/frulhns. This includes cached copies of the vignettes included in this package:
There is presently no version on CRAN,but you can use the remotes package to install the development versions of this package and its dependencies:
if (!requireNamespace("remotes")) install.packages("remotes")
# dependencies = TRUE will install suggested packages from CRAN that are required for the vignettes.
remotes::install_github("jefferis/frulhns", dependencies=TRUE)Note: Windows users may need Rtools in addition to devtools to install this way.
See DESCRIPTION.
In order to build the vignettes, which are one of the main reasons
for creating this package, several additional packages are required including
knitr, my gphys
package and nat packages and the CRAN
package coin. Following standard practice,
these packages are listed under the Suggested field of the DESCRIPTION file.
They can be installed when dependencies=TRUE is supplied on installation.
The neuroanatomical analysis in the neurons vignette depend only on my
nat package. This is now a well-documented and
mature codebase with a number of interesting extension packages. Published work from 2013 and earlier depended on my
AnalysisSuite
codebase, which is not available directly as a formal R package.
This includes an earlier version of the
neuron search/similarity code now available as package
nat.nblast.
If you wish to use the AnalysisSuite code to replicate analysis from Kohl, Ostrovsky et al 2013 exactly as it was performed at the time, you must install and load the nat.as wrapper R package, which is used to install and then load the AnalysisSuite codebase. Full details of the installation procedure are provided on the nat.as package homepage.
