Estimation of incidence and case fatality for a chronic disease, given partial information, using a multi-state model. Given data on age-specific mortality and either incidence or prevalence, Bayesian inference is used to estimate the posterior distributions of incidence, case fatality, and functions of these such as prevalence. The methods are described in Jackson et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/jrsssa/qnac015>.

Generate Rd markup to list methods for a generic function. Makes it easier to document S3, S4, and S7 generics by automatically finding and linking to method documentation.

This package provides functions for computing the density, distribution, and random generation of the Decision Diffusion model (DDM), a widely used cognitive model for analysing choice and response time data. The package allows model specification, including the ability to fix, constrain, or vary parameters across experimental conditions. While it does not include a built-in optimiser, it supports likelihood evaluation and can be integrated with external tools for parameter estimation. Functions for simulating synthetic datasets are also provided. This package is intended for researchers modelling speeded decision-making in behavioural and cognitive experiments. For more information, see Voss, Rothermund, and Voss (2004) <doi:10.3758/BF03196893>, Voss and Voss (2007) <doi:10.3758/BF03192967>, and Ratcliff and McKoon (2008) <doi:10.1162/neco.2008.12-06-420>.

Bayesian factor models are effective tools for dimension reduction. This is especially applicable to multivariate large-scale datasets. It allows researchers to understand the latent factors of the data which are the linear or non-linear combination of the variables. Dynamic Intrinsic Conditional Autocorrelative Priors (ICAR) Spatiotemporal Factor Models DIFM package provides function to run Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), evaluation methods and visual plots from Shin and Ferreira (2023)<doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2023.100763>. Our method is a class of Bayesian factor model which can account for spatial and temporal correlations. By incorporating these correlations, the model can capture specific behaviors and provide predictions.

Estimation, validation and prediction of models of different types : linear models, additive models, MARS,PolyMARS and Kriging.

This package provides a series of functions which aid in both simulating and determining the properties of finite, discrete-time, discrete state markov chains. Two functions (DTMC, MultDTMC) produce n iterations of a Markov Chain(s) based on transition probabilities and an initial distribution. The function FPTime determines the first passage time into each state. The function statdistr determines the stationary distribution of a Markov Chain.

This package provides functions and example datasets to run a decision-analytic model for prevention and treatment strategies across depression severity states (sub-clinical, mild, moderate, severe, and recurrent). The package supports scenario analyses (base and alternative inputs) and summarises outcomes such as coverage, adherence, effect sizes, and healthcare costs.

Curated datasets and intuitive data management functions to streamline epidemiological data workflows. It is designed to support researchers in quickly accessing clean, structured data and applying essential cleaning, summarizing, visualization, and export operations with minimal effort. Whether you're preparing a cohort for analysis or creating reports, DIVINE makes the process more efficient, transparent, and reproducible.

Main function "decode" is used to decode coded key values to plain text. Function "code" can be used to code plain text to code if there is a 1:1 relation between the two. The concept relies on keyvalue objects used for translation. There are several keyvalue objects included in the areas of geographical regional codes, administrative health care unit codes, diagnosis codes and more. It is also easy to extend the use by arbitrary code sets.

Compute the dynamic threshold panel model suggested by (Stephanie Kremer, Alexander Bick and Dieter Nautz (2013) <doi:10.1007/s00181-012-0553-9>) in which they extended the (Hansen (1999) <doi: 10.1016/S0304-4076(99)00025-1>) original static panel threshold estimation and the Caner and (Hansen (2004) <doi:10.1017/S0266466604205011>) cross-sectional instrumental variable threshold model, where generalized methods of moments type estimators are used.

Differential Analysis of short RNA transcripts that can be modeled by either Poisson or Negative binomial distribution. The statistical methodology implemented in this package is based on the random selection of references genes (Desaulle et al. (2021) <arXiv:2103.09872>).

Mixed model analysis for quantitative genetics with multi-trait responses and pedigree-based partitioning of individual variation into a range of environmental and genetic variance components for individual and maternal effects. Method documented in dmmOverview.pdf; dmm is an implementation of dispersion mean model described by Searle et al. (1992) "Variance Components", Wiley, NY. Dmm() can do MINQUE', bias-corrected-ML', and REML variance and covariance component estimates.

This package provides tools for exploration of R package dependencies. The main deepdep() function allows to acquire deep dependencies of any package and plot them in an elegant way. It also adds some popularity measures for the packages e.g. in the form of download count through the cranlogs package. Uses the CRAN metadata database <http://crandb.r-pkg.org> and Bioconductor metadata <https://bioconductor.org>. Other data acquire functions are: get_dependencies(), get_downloads() and get_description(). The deepdep_shiny() function runs shiny application that helps to produce a nice deepdep plot.

Visualizes variables from descriptive tables produced by descsuppR::buildDescrTbl() using ggstatsplot'. It automatically maps each variable to a suitable ggstatsplot plotting function based on the applied or suggested statistical test. Users can override the automatic mapping via a named list of plot specifications. The package supports grouped and ungrouped tables, and forwards additional arguments to the underlying ggstatsplot functions, providing quick, reproducible, and customizable default visualizations for descriptive summaries.

This package provides a full definition for Weibull tails and Full-Tails Gamma and tools for fitting these distributions to empirical tails. This package build upon the paper by del Castillo, Joan & Daoudi, Jalila & Serra, Isabel. (2012) <doi:10.1017/asb.2017.9>.

The goal of dlr is to provide a friendly wrapper around the common pattern of downloading a file if that file does not already exist locally.

Researchers can characterize and learn about the properties of research designs before implementation using `DeclareDesign`. Ex ante declaration and diagnosis of designs can help researchers clarify the strengths and limitations of their designs and to improve their properties, and can help readers evaluate a research strategy prior to implementation and without access to results. It can also make it easier for designs to be shared, replicated, and critiqued.

This package provides constrained triangulation of polygons. Ear cutting (or ear clipping) applies constrained triangulation by successively cutting triangles from a polygon defined by path/s. Holes are supported by introducing a bridge segment between polygon paths. This package wraps the header-only library earcut.hpp <https://github.com/mapbox/earcut.hpp> which includes a reference to the method used by Held, M. (2001) <doi:10.1007/s00453-001-0028-4>.
