This package performs forward and backward stepwise regression for the proportional subdistribution hazards model in competing risks (Fine & Gray 1999). Procedure uses AIC, BIC and BICcr as selection criteria. BICcr has a penalty of k = log(n*), where n* is the number of primary events. This version includes improved handling of factors, interactions, and polynomial terms.

Implementing seven Covariate-Adaptive Randomization to assign patients to two treatments. Three of these procedures can also accommodate quantitative and mixed covariates. Given a set of covariates, the user can generate a single sequence of allocations or replicate the design multiple times by simulating the patients covariate profiles. At the end, an extensive assessment of the performance of the randomization procedures is provided, calculating several imbalance measures. See Baldi Antognini A, Frieri R, Zagoraiou M and Novelli M (2022) <doi:10.1007/s00362-022-01381-1> for details.

This package provides functions to analyze coarse data. Specifically, it contains functions to (1) fit parametric accelerated failure time models to interval-censored survival time data, and (2) estimate the case-fatality ratio in scenarios with under-reporting. This package's development was motivated by applications to infectious disease: in particular, problems with estimating the incubation period and the case fatality ratio of a given disease. Sample data files are included in the package. See Reich et al. (2009) <doi:10.1002/sim.3659>, Reich et al. (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2011.01709.x>, and Lessler et al.

The ConNEcT approach investigates the pairwise association strength of binary time series by calculating contingency measures and depicts the results in a network. The package includes features to explore and visualize the data. To calculate the pairwise concurrent or temporal sequenced relationship between the variables, the package provides seven contingency measures (proportion of agreement, classical & corrected Jaccard, Cohen's kappa, phi correlation coefficient, odds ratio, and log odds ratio), however, others can easily be implemented. The package also includes non-parametric significance tests, that can be applied to test whether the contingency value quantifying the relationship between the variables is significantly higher than chance level. Most importantly this test accounts for auto-dependence and relative frequency.See Bodner et al.(2021) <doi: 10.1111/bmsp.12222>.Finally, a network can be drawn. Variables depicted the nodes of the network, with the node size adapted to the prevalence. The association strength between the variables defines the undirected (concurrent) or directed (temporal sequenced) links between the nodes. The results of the non-parametric significance test can be included by depicting either all links or only the significant ones. Tutorial see Bodner et al.(2021) <doi:10.3758/s13428-021-01760-w>.

Allows clustering of incomplete observations by addressing missing values using multiple imputation. For achieving this goal, the methodology consists in three steps, following Audigier and Niang 2022 <doi:10.1007/s11634-022-00519-1>. I) Missing data imputation using dedicated models. Four multiple imputation methods are proposed, two are based on joint modelling and two are fully sequential methods, as discussed in Audigier et al. (2021) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2106.04424>. II) cluster analysis of imputed data sets. Six clustering methods are available (distances-based or model-based), but custom methods can also be easily used. III) Partition pooling. The set of partitions is aggregated using Non-negative Matrix Factorization based method. An associated instability measure is computed by bootstrap (see Fang, Y. and Wang, J., 2012 <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2011.09.003>). Among applications, this instability measure can be used to choose a number of clusters with missing values. The package also proposes several diagnostic tools to tune the number of imputed data sets, to tune the number of iterations in fully sequential imputation, to check the fit of imputation models, etc.

Conditional graphical lasso estimator is an extension of the graphical lasso proposed to estimate the conditional dependence structure of a set of p response variables given q predictors. This package provides suitable extensions developed to study datasets with censored and/or missing values. Standard conditional graphical lasso is available as a special case. Furthermore, the package provides an integrated set of core routines for visualization, analysis, and simulation of datasets with censored and/or missing values drawn from a Gaussian graphical model. Details about the implemented models can be found in Augugliaro et al. (2023) <doi: 10.18637/jss.v105.i01>, Augugliaro et al. (2020b) <doi: 10.1007/s11222-020-09945-7>, Augugliaro et al. (2020a) <doi: 10.1093/biostatistics/kxy043>, Yin et al. (2001) <doi: 10.1214/11-AOAS494> and Stadler et al. (2012) <doi: 10.1007/s11222-010-9219-7>.

Examine any number of time series data frames to identify instances in which various criteria are met within specified time frames. In clinical medicine, these types of events are often called "constellations of signs and symptoms", because a single condition depends on a series of events occurring within a certain amount of time of each other. This package was written to work with any number of time series data frames and is optimized for speed to work well with data frames with millions of rows.

Draws systematic samples from a population that follows linear trend. The function returns a matrix comprising of the required samples as its column vectors. The samples produced are highly efficient and the inter sampling variance is minimum. The scheme will be useful in various field like Bioinformatics where the samples are expensive and must be precise in reflecting the population by possessing least sampling variance.
