numOSL-package: Package for tackling basic numeric problems in optically stimulated luminescence dating
Description
Available functions in package "numOSL" include:
1)Function calED() fits a dose-response curve and calculates some equivalent dose values, the standard errors of which can be assessed using either a simple transformation protocol or a monte Carlo method (Duller, 2007).
2)Function dbED() summarizes the distribution of equivalent dose values and draws a histogram and a probability density plot.
3)Function decomp() and decompc() decompose an OSL decay curve (type "CW" or "LM") to a specified number of components, which perform the fitting using a combination of differential evolution and
Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm suggested by Bluszcz and Adamiec (2006).
4)Function fastED() estimates a fast-component equivalent dose with data abtained by the single aliquot regenerative (SAR) protocol (Murray and Wintle, 2000).
5)Function RadialPlotter() performs statistical age models (log-scale) analysis (Galbraith and Roberts, 2012) using classic numeric methods and draws a radial plot (Galbraith, 1988).
6)Function mcFMM() and mcMAM() estimate parameters of statistical age models with a Markov chain Monte Carlo method (i.e. Slice Sampling, Neal, 2003).Details
