This package contains an administrative-level-1 map of the world. Administrative-level-1 is the generic term for the largest sub-national subdivision of a country. This package was created for use with the choroplethr package.

Deriving skill structures from skill assignment data for courses (sets of learning objects).

The Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to perform changepoint analysis in time series data. The package also includes an extended island version of GA, as described in Lu, Lund, and Lee (2010, <doi:10.1214/09-AOAS289>). By mimicking the principles of natural selection and evolution, GA provides a powerful stochastic search technique for solving combinatorial optimization problems. In changepointGA', each chromosome represents a changepoint configuration, including the number and locations of changepoints, hyperparameters, and model parameters. The package employs genetic operatorsâ selection, crossover, and mutationâ to iteratively improve solutions based on the given fitness (objective) function. Key features of changepointGA include encoding changepoint configurations in an integer format, enabling dynamic and simultaneous estimation of model hyperparameters, changepoint configurations, and associated parameters. The detailed algorithmic implementation can be found in the package vignettes and in the paper of Li (2024, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.15571>).

Create correlation (or partial correlation) matrices. Correlation matrices are formatted with significance stars based on user preferences. Matrices of coefficients, p-values, and number of pairwise observations are returned. Send resultant formatted matrices to the clipboard to be pasted into excel and other programs. A plot method allows users to visualize correlation matrices created with corx'.

The Core Microbiome refers to the group of microorganisms that are consistently present in a particular environment, habitat, or host species. These microorganisms play a crucial role in the functioning and stability of that ecosystem. Identifying these microorganisms can contribute to the emerging field of personalized medicine. The CoreMicrobiomeR is designed to facilitate the identification, statistical testing, and visualization of this group of microorganisms.This package offers three key functions to analyze and visualize microbial community data. This package has been developed based on the research papers published by Pereira et al.(2018) <doi:10.1186/s12864-018-4637-6> and Beule L, Karlovsky P. (2020) <doi:10.7717/peerj.9593>.

Finds the most likely originating tissue(s) and developmental stage(s) of tissue-specific RNA sequencing data. The package identifies both pure transcriptomes and mixtures of transcriptomes. The most likely identity is found through comparisons of the sequencing data with high-throughput in situ hybridisation patterns. Typical uses are the identification of cancer cell origins, validation of cell culture strain identities, validation of single-cell transcriptomes, and validation of identity and purity of flow-sorting and dissection sequencing products.

Designed for web usage data analysis, it implements tools to process web sequences and identify web browsing profiles through sequential classification. Sequences clusters are identified by using a model-based approach, specifically mixture of discrete time first-order Markov models for categorical web sequences. A Bayesian approach is used to estimate model parameters and identify sequences classification as proposed by Fruehwirth-Schnatter and Pamminger (2010) <doi:10.1214/10-BA606>.

Infrastructure for task views to CRAN-style repositories: Querying task views and installing the associated packages (client-side tools), generating HTML pages and storing task view information in the repository (server-side tools).

Estimate survival using data mapped to the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership common data model. Survival can be estimated based on user-defined study cohorts.

After using this, a publication-ready correlation table with p-values indicated will be created. The input can be a full data frame; any string and Boolean terms will be dropped as part of functionality. Correlations and p-values are calculated using the Hmisc framework. Output of the correlation_matrix() function is a table of strings; this gets saved out to a .csv2 with the save_correlation_matrix() function for easy insertion into a paper. For more details about the process, consult <https://paulvanderlaken.com/2020/07/28/publication-ready-correlation-matrix-significance-r/>.
