ppwdeming: Precision Profile Weighted Deming Regression

Weighted Deming regression, also known as 'errors-in-variable' regression, is applied with suitable weights. Weights are modeled via a precision profile; thus the methods implemented here are referred to as precision profile weighted Deming (PWD) regression. The package covers two settings – one where the precision profiles are known either from external studies or from adequate replication of the X and Y readings, and one in which there is a plausible functional form for the precision profiles but the exact (unknown) function must be estimated from the (generally singlicate) readings. The function set includes tools for: estimated standard errors (via jackknifing); standardized-residual analysis function with regression diagnostic tools for normality, linearity and constant variance; and an outlier analysis identifying significant outliers for closer investigation.
