[R] [R-pkgs] new package MLCM: Maximum Likelihood Conjoint Measurement
This is to announce a new package MLCM on CRAN. The package provides functions for estimating perceptual scales by maximum likelihood from data collected in a conjoint measurement experiment. Data for conjoint measurement are typically collected using a psychophysical procedure. The stimuli vary along 2 or more dimensions. The observer views pairs of stimuli and judges which stimulus of each pair is higher on a specified dimension. For example, stimuli may be goods baskets containing amounts of milk and honey (dimensions) and the subject may order each pair of baskets by subjective desirability. This package contains tools to estimate the additive contribution of the n scales to the judgment by a maximum likelihood method under several hypotheses of how the perceptual dimensions interact. -- Ken Knoblauch Inserm U846 Stem-cell and Brain Research Institute Department of Integrative Neurosciences 18 avenue du Doyen L?pine 69500 Bron France tel: +33 (0)4 72 91 34 77 fax: +33 (0)4 72 91 34 61 portable: +33 (0)6 84 10 64 10 http://www.sbri.fr/members/kenneth-knoblauch.html _______________________________________________ R-packages mailing list R-packages at r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-packages
