In this package we provide some basic utilities for
performing meta-analysis. We included methods for dealing with
missing values, or measurements with a variance of zero. For
developing or testing meta-analysis methods a mock up data
model is integrated. Additionally did we implement a method for
performing significance based methods proposed by Fisher and
Rhodes. For visualizing the results three methods were added.
Some functions were taken from the GeneMeta and RankProd
packages in order to implement parallel versions of the
existing methods. Please refer to the original authors if you
make use of these implementations.
