Gaston:

There are many ways to do this, but I think this is mostly a question about
statistics, not about R. Once you have decided *what* you want to do, then
you can search in R for tools to do it. So I would suggest you post your
question on a statistics site, like http://stats.stackexchange.com/  .
Better yet by far is to collaborate with a local statistician.

Cheers,
Bert

"Men by nature long to get on to the ultimate truths, and will often be
impatient with elementary studies or fight shy of them. If it were possible
to reach the ultimate truths without the elementary studies usually prefixed
to them, these would not be preparatory studies but superfluous diversions."
