WiSER stands for within-subject variance estimation by robust regression. It is a regression aproach for estimating the effects of predictors on the within-subject variation in a longitudinal setting.

WiSER.jl requires Julia v1.0 or later. See documentation for usage. I This package is registered in the default Julia package registry, and can be installed through standard package installation procedure: e.g., running the following code in Julia REPL.

using Pkg
pkg"add WiSER"
