Matrix eQTL is designed for fast eQTL analysis on large datasets. Matrix eQTL can test for association between genotype and gene expression using linear regression with either additive or ANOVA genotype effects. The models can include covariates to account for factors as population stratification, gender, and clinical variables. It also supports models with heteroscedastic and/or correlated errors, false discovery rate estimation and separate treatment of local (cis) and distant (trans) eQTLs. For more details see Shabalin (2012) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/bts163>.

The method m:Explorer associates a given list of target genes (e.g. those involved in a biological process) to gene regulators such as transcription factors. Transcription factors that bind DNA near significantly many target genes or correlate with target genes in transcriptional (microarray or RNAseq data) are selected. Selection of candidate master regulators is carried out using multinomial regression models, likelihood ratio tests and multiple testing correction.

Constructing matrices for quick prototyping can be a nuisance, requiring the user to think about how to fill the matrix with values using the matrix() function. The %<-% operator solves that issue by allowing the user to construct matrices using code that shows the actual matrices.

This package provides a generalization of the Synth package that is designed for data at a more granular level (e.g., micro-level).

Several functions for maximum likelihood estimation of various univariate and multivariate distributions. The list includes more than 100 functions for univariate continuous and discrete distributions, distributions that lie on the real line, the positive line, interval restricted, circular distributions. Further, multivariate continuous and discrete distributions, distributions for compositional and directional data, etc. Some references include Johnson N. L., Kotz S. and Balakrishnan N. (1994).

Given independent and identically distributed observations X(1), ..., X(n) from a density f, provides five methods to perform a multiscale analysis about f as well as the necessary critical values. The first method, introduced in Duembgen and Walther (2008), provides simultaneous confidence statements for the existence and location of local increases (or decreases) of f, based on all intervals I(all) spanned by any two observations X(j), X(k). The second method approximates the latter approach by using only a subset of I(all) and is therefore computationally much more efficient, but asymptotically equivalent. Omitting the additive correction term Gamma in either method offers another two approaches which are more powerful on small scales and less powerful on large scales, however, not asymptotically minimax optimal anymore. Finally, the block procedure is a compromise between adding Gamma or not, having intermediate power properties. The latter is again asymptotically equivalent to the first and was introduced in Rufibach and Walther (2010).

This package provides a set of tools for fitting Markov-modulated linear regression, where responses Y(t) are time-additive, and model operates in the external environment, which is described as a continuous time Markov chain with finite state space. Model is proposed by Alexander Andronov (2012) <arXiv:1901.09600v1> and algorithm of parameters estimation is based on eigenvalues and eigenvectors decomposition. Markov-switching regression models have the same idea of varying the regression parameters randomly in accordance with external environment. The difference is that for Markov-modulated linear regression model the external environment is described as a continuous-time homogeneous irreducible Markov chain with known parameters while switching models consider Markov chain as unobserved and estimation procedure involves estimation of transition matrix. These models have significant differences in terms of the analytical approach. Also, package provides a set of data simulation tools for Markov-modulated linear regression (for academical/research purposes). Research project No. 1.1.1.2/VIAA/1/16/075.
