A set of functions allowing to implement the 'SpiceFP' approach
  which is iterative. It involves transformation of functional predictors into
  several candidate explanatory matrices (based on contingency tables), to which
  relative edge matrices with contiguity constraints are associated. Generalized
  Fused Lasso regression are performed in order to identify the best candidate
  matrix, the best class intervals and related coefficients at each iteration.
  The approach is stopped when the maximal number of iterations is reached or
  when retained coefficients are zeros. Supplementary functions allow to get
  coefficients of any candidate matrix or mean of coefficients of many candidates.
  The methods in this package are describing in Girault Gnanguenon Guesse,

Analysis of species limits and DNA barcoding data. Included are functions for generating important summary statistics from DNA barcode data, assessing specimen identification efficacy, testing and optimizing divergence threshold limits, assessment of diagnostic nucleotides, and calculation of the probability of reciprocal monophyly. Additionally, a sliding window function offers opportunities to analyse information across a gene, often used for marker design in degraded DNA studies. Further information on the package has been published in Brown et al (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.1755-0998.2011.03108.x>.
