The package provides some functionalities that can be
useful for the analysis of high-density tiling microarray data
(such as Affymetrix genechips) for measuring transcript
abundance and architecture. The main functionalities of the
package are: The class 'segmentation' for representing
partitionings of a linear series of data. The functions
'segment' for fitting piecewise constant models using a dynamic
programming algorithm that is both fast and exact, and
'confint' for calculating confidence intervals using the
strucchange package. The function 'plotAlongChrom' for
generating pretty plots. The function 'normalizeByReference'
for probe-sequence dependent response adjustment from a (set
of) reference hybridizations.
