This is an add-on package to gamlss'. The purpose of this package is to allow users to fit GAMLSS (Generalised Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape) models when the response variable is defined either in the intervals [0,1), (0,1] and [0,1] (inflated at zero and/or one distributions), or in the positive real line including zero (zero-adjusted distributions). The mass points at zero and/or one are treated as extra parameters with the possibility to include a linear predictor for both. The package also allows transformed or truncated distributions from the GAMLSS family to be used for the continuous part of the distribution. Standard methods and GAMLSS diagnostics can be used with the resulting fitted object.

This package provides plotting functions for visualizing pedigrees and family trees. The package complements a behavior genetics package BGmisc [Garrison et al. (2024) <doi:10.21105/joss.06203>] by rendering pedigrees using the ggplot2 framework. Features include support for duplicated individuals, complex mating structures, integration with simulated pedigrees, and layout customization. Due to the impending deprecation of kinship2, version 1.0 incorporates the layout helper functions from kinship2. The pedigree alignment algorithms are adapted from kinship2 [Sinnwell et al. (2014) <doi:10.1159/000363105>]. We gratefully acknowledge the original authors: Jason Sinnwell, Terry Therneau, Daniel Schaid, and Elizabeth Atkinson for their foundational work.

Two arms clinical trials required sample size is calculated in the comprehensive parametric context. The calculation is based on the type of endpoints(continuous/binary/time-to-event/ordinal), design (parallel/crossover), hypothesis tests (equality/noninferiority/superiority/equivalence), trial arms noncompliance rates and expected loss of follow-up. Methods are described in: Chow SC, Shao J, Wang H, Lokhnygina Y (2017) <doi:10.1201/9781315183084>, Wittes, J (2002) <doi:10.1093/epirev/24.1.39>, Sato, T (2000) <doi:10.1002/1097-0258(20001015)19:19%3C2689::aid-sim555%3E3.0.co;2-0>, Lachin J M, Foulkes, M A (1986) <doi:10.2307/2531201>, Whitehead J(1993) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780122404>, Julious SA (2023) <doi:10.1201/9780429503658>.

The groupr package provides a more powerful version of grouped tibbles from dplyr'. It allows groups to be marked inapplicable, which is a simple but widely useful way to express structure in a dataset. It also provides powerful pivoting and other group manipulation functions.

Estimates grid type bivariate copula functions, calculates some association measures and provides several copula graphics.

Unsupervised Clustering and Meta-analysis using Gaussian Mixture Copula Models.

This package implements Bayesian spatial and spatiotemporal models that optionally allow for extreme spatial deviations through time. glmmfields uses a predictive process approach with random fields implemented through a multivariate-t distribution instead of the usual multivariate normal. Sampling is conducted with Stan'. References: Anderson and Ward (2019) <doi:10.1002/ecy.2403>.

R provides fantastic tools for changepoint analysis, but plots generated by the tools do not have the ggplot2 style. This tool, however, combines changepoint', changepoint.np and ecp together, and uses ggplot2 to visualize changepoints.

This package provides functions for estimating a GARCHSK model and GJRSK model based on a publication by Leon et,al (2005)<doi:10.1016/j.qref.2004.12.020> and Nakagawa and Uchiyama (2020)<doi:10.3390/math8111990>. These are a GARCH-type model allowing for time-varying volatility, skewness and kurtosis.

Sparse large Directed Acyclic Graphs learning with a combination of a convex program and a tailored genetic algorithm (see Champion et al. (2017) <https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01172745v2/document>).

Penalized methods are useful for fitting over-parameterized models. This package includes functions for restructuring an ordinal response dataset for fitting continuation ratio models for datasets where the number of covariates exceeds the sample size or when there is collinearity among the covariates. The glmnet fitting algorithm is used to fit the continuation ratio model after data restructuring.

The philosophy in the package is described in Stasny (1988) <doi:10.2307/1391558> and Gutierrez, A., Trujillo, L. & Silva, N. (2014), <ISSN:1492-0921> to estimate the gross flows under complex surveys using a Markov chain approach with non response.

This package provides statistical transformations for plotting empirical ordinary Lorenz curve (Lorenz 1905) <doi:10.2307/2276207> and generalized Lorenz curve (Shorrocks 1983) <doi:10.2307/2554117>.

The accurate annotation of genes and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) located within candidate markers and/or regions (haplotypes, windows, CNVs, etc) is a crucial step the most common genomic analyses performed in livestock, such as Genome-Wide Association Studies or transcriptomics. The Genomic Annotation in Livestock for positional candidate LOci (GALLO) is an R package designed to provide an intuitive and straightforward environment to annotate positional candidate genes and QTLs from high-throughput genetic studies in livestock. Moreover, GALLO allows the graphical visualization of gene and QTL annotation results, data comparison among different grouping factors (e.g., methods, breeds, tissues, statistical models, studies, etc.), and QTL enrichment in different livestock species including cattle, pigs, sheep, and chicken, among others.

Toolset to create perpendicular profile graphs and swath profiles. Method are based on coordinate rotation algorithm by Schaeben et al. (2024) <doi:10.1002/mma.9823>.

In practical applications, the assumptions underlying generalized linear models frequently face violations, including incorrect specifications of the outcome variable's distribution or omitted predictors. These deviations can render the results of standard generalized linear models unreliable. As the sample size increases, what might initially appear as minor issues can escalate to critical concerns. To address these challenges, we adopt a permutation-based inference method tailored for generalized linear models. This approach offers robust estimations that effectively counteract the mentioned problems, and its effectiveness remains consistent regardless of the sample size.

This package provides tools for plotting gene clusters and transcripts by importing data from GenBank, FASTA, and GFF files. It performs BLASTP and MUMmer alignments [Altschul et al. (1990) <doi:10.1016/S0022-2836(05)80360-2>; Delcher et al. (1999) <doi:10.1093/nar/27.11.2369>] and displays results on gene arrow maps. Extensive customization options are available, including legends, labels, annotations, scales, colors, tooltips, and more.

Fits a multivariate linear mixed effects model that uses a polygenic term, after Zhou & Stephens (2014) (<https://www.nature.com/articles/nmeth.2848>). Of particular interest is the estimation of variance components with restricted maximum likelihood (REML) methods. Genome-wide efficient mixed-model association (GEMMA), as implemented in the package gemma2', uses an expectation-maximization algorithm for variance components inference for use in quantitative trait locus studies.

This package provides functions for greenhouse gas flux calculation from chamber measurements.

Defines classes and methods that can be used to implement genetic algorithms for feature selection. The idea is that we want to select a fixed number of features to combine into a linear classifier that can predict a binary outcome, and can use a genetic algorithm heuristically to select an optimal set of features.
