Hello everyone,

We present you the permuco package, which has 2 main purposes: PERmutation 
tests and MUltiple COmparisons.

First, the package has functions for permutation tests for parameters in linear 
models with nuisance variables. Several permutation methods exist in the 
literature to reduce the effect of nuisance variables and the permuco package 
allows to use them for t statistics in regression model, F tests in type 3 
ANOVA, and F tests in repeated measures ANOVA. The 2 functions aovperm() and 
lmperm() perform these tests and their usage is similar to the parametric 
counterpart aov() and lm().

Secondly, it uses multiple comparisons procedures with permutation tests to 
compare signals time by time. This problem is common when analysing 
electroencephalography (or fMRI) data where the response variables are EEG 
signals recorded for each experimental setting. In these experiments, the 
number of tests is equal to the number of time points of the signal which is 
typically in the thousands. The permuco package implements the state-of-the-art 
multiple comparisons procedures which uses permutations, like the cluster-mass 
test or the threshold-free cluster-enhancement. These procedures are powerful 
when the effects appear in clusters and they will control the family wise error 
rate (FWER) under the null hypothesis.

All these procedures are explained and exemplified in detail in a vignette.

We are waiting for your feedback in order to improve the next releases of 
permuco.
