Description: The package is the R-version of the C-based software
        \bold{CASPAR} (Kaderali,2006:
        \url{http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.org/content/22/12/1495}).
        It is meant to help predict survival times in the presence of
        high-dimensional explanatory covariates. The model is a
        piecewise baseline hazard Cox regression model with an Lq-norm
        based prior that selects for the most important regression
        coefficients, and in turn the most relevant covariates for
        survival analysis. It was primarily tried on gene expression
        and aCGH data, but can be used on any other type of
        high-dimensional data and in disciplines other than biology and
        medicine.
