In this case study we used 400 amplification curves from the kbqPCR dataset from and assign them to the object curves. A comprehensive PDF version (including domain knowledge about qPCRs and machine learning) of this document is available online supplement. This online document contains additional code (incl. installation of the software, data import, preprocessing)) that helps to understand how this introductionary case study was created. Before we start we need to load additional libraries (some from CRAN, some from github.com).
