estimate.offset

A list object with each element being measurement for a sample

A character string corresponding to the name of the signal used to estimate lethal time

The time after which signal will be used to compute offset

min.t

The time before which signal will be used to compute offset

max.t

Use spectrophotometry measurements performed on insects as a way to infer pathogens
virulence. Insect movements cause fluctuations in fluorescence signal, and functions are
provided to estimate when the insect has died as the moment when variance in autofluorescence
signal drops to zero. The package provides functions to obtain this estimate together with
functions to import spectrophotometry data from a Biotek microplate reader. Details of the method
are given in Parthuisot et al. (2018) <doi:10.1101/297929>.
