The `dsGamlssClient` package is a [DataSHIELD](https://www.datashield.org) client-side package that includes the server-side functions to fit Generalized Additive Models for Location, Scale and Shape (GAMLSS) [1] using DataSHIELD. It is based on the original [gamlss](https://cran.r-project.org/package=gamlss) implementation [1] and the [dsBaseClient](https://github.com/datashield/dsBaseClient) package [2].

### DataSHIELD
26
26
DataSHIELD is a software infrastructure which allows you to do non-disclosive federated analysis on sensitive data. The [DataSHIELD website](https://www.datashield.org) has in depth descriptions of what it is, how it works and how to install it. A key point to highlight is that DataSHIELD has a client-server infrastructure, so the `dsGamlssClient` package needs to be used in conjunction with the [dsGamlss](https://github.com/bips-hb/dsGamlss) package - trying to use one without the other makes no sense. Detailed instructions on how to install DataSHIELD can be found at the [DataSHIELD Wiki](https://www.datashield.org/wiki). Discussion and help with using DataSHIELD can be obtained from the [DataSHIELD Forum](https://datashield.discourse.group/).

The example uses the server-less DataSHIELD implementation [DSLite](https://cran.r-project.org/package=DSLite)[3] to illustrate the use of the package's main functions `ds.gamlss` and `ds.predict.gamlss`. Thus, access to a DataSHIELD server is not required to follow the example.
