Perl-speaks-NONMEM

Perl-speaks-NONMEM (PsN) is a collection of Perl modules and programs aiding in the development of non-linear mixed effect models using NONMEM. The functionality ranges from solutions to simpler tasks such as parameter estimate extraction from output files, data file sub setting and resampling, to advanced computer-intensive statistical methods. PsN includes stand-alone tools for the end-user as well as development libraries for method developers.

Tags for PsNR releases (2019-09-20)

For rplots and qa to work properly each PsN version needs a specific version of PsNR. This will be handled by tagging PsNR versions with a PsN version tag. For PsN 4.9.0 this means that it is not adviced to install PsNR from setup.pl. Please instead follow the Psn installation instructions

PsN 4.9.0 released (2019-06-05)

New features in this version include:

PsN 4.8.1 released (2018-06-08)

This version is a very minor upgrade from 4.8.0. To simplify installation of all R packages needed for qa and rplots an R-script was added. It has an option to install the needed R packages into a separate library. Then a setting in psn.conf can set this library to be the default for PsN. When having problems with getting R plots out from PsN it is recommended to use this script to get the right versions of all R packages.

Rscript PsN/R-scripts/install_R_packages.R myRlib

In psn-conf add:
R_LIB_PATH=myRlib

PsN 4.8.0 released (2018-05-25)
