Implementation of R package CAISEr, with routines for automatically determining the sample size needed for performing comparative experiments with multiple algorithms on multiple problem instances.

To install the most up-to-date version directly from Github, simply type:

library(devtools)
devtools::install_github("fcampelo/CAISEr")

The most recent CRAN release of the package is also available for installation directly from the R prompt, using:

install.packages("CAISEr")

For instructions and examples of use, please take a look at the vignette Adapting Algorithms for CAISEr, and at the package documentation, particularly functions run_experiment(), run_nreps() and calc_instances().
