This is the Debian GNU/Linux r-cran-rms package of rms, a collection of GNU R functions for regression modeling strategies, written by Frank Harrell and supporting the book (Springer, 2001) of the same title. This package was created by Dirk Eddelbuettel . The sources were downloaded from http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/rms/index.html and are also available at all CRAN mirrors. The package was renamed from its upstream name 'rms' to 'r-cran-rms' to fit the pattern of CRAN and non-CRAN packages for R.

It also contains functions for binary and ordinal logistic regression models and the Buckley-James multiple regression model for right-censored responses, and implements penalized maximum likelihood estimation for logistic and ordinary linear models. rms works with almost any regression model, but it was especially written to work with binary or ordinal logistic regression, Cox regression, accelerated failure time models, ordinary linear models, the Buckley-James model, generalized least squares for serially or spatially correlated observations, generalized linear models, and quantile regression.
