This software package is based on the R package expQ
developed by
Chris Sherlock (https://github.com/ChrisGSherlock/expQ). It has been
altered for ease of use by reformatting so that it can be easily
installed directly from github or R-universe. The purpose of this
package is to calculate the quantity v′mexp(Q) where v is a
vector of probabilities such that sum(v) = 1 and Q is a rate
matrix for a continuous-time Markov chain.
This software package is developed and maintained by scientists at the NOAA Fisheries Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center and should be considered a fundamental research communication. The recommendations and conclusions presented here are those of the authors and this software should not be construed as official communication by NMFS, NOAA, or the U.S. Dept. of Commerce. In addition, reference to trade names does not imply endorsement by the National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA. While the best efforts have been made to insure the highest quality, tools such as this are under constant development and are subject to change.
