This package provides modules as an organizational unit for source code. Modules enforce to be more rigorous when defining dependencies and have a local search path. They can be used as a sub unit within packages or in scripts.

This package implements the Maki (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.econmod.2012.05.006> cointegration test that allows for an unknown number of structural breaks. The test detects cointegration relationships in the presence of up to five structural breaks in the intercept and/or slope coefficients. Four different model specifications are supported: level shifts, level shifts with trend, regime shifts, and trend with regime shifts. The method is described in Maki (2012) "Tests for cointegration allowing for an unknown number of breaks" <doi:10.1016/j.econmod.2012.05.006>.

This package implements proper and so-called Maximum Likelihood Multiple Imputation as described by von Hippel and Bartlett (2021) <doi:10.1214/20-STS793>. A number of different imputation methods are available, by utilising the norm', cat and mix packages. Inferences can be performed either using Rubin's rules (for proper imputation), or a modified version for maximum likelihood imputation. For maximum likelihood imputations a likelihood score based approach based on theory by Wang and Robins (1998) <doi:10.1093/biomet/85.4.935> is also available.

Builds and interprets multi-response machine learning models using tidymodels syntax. Users can supply a tidy model, and mrIML automates the process of fitting multiple response models to multivariate data and applying interpretable machine learning techniques across them. For more details see Fountain-Jones (2021) <doi:10.1111/1755-0998.13495> and Fountain-Jones et al. (2024) <doi:10.22541/au.172676147.77148600/v1>.

The nonparametric two-stage Bayesian adaptive design is a novel phase II clinical trial design for finding the minimum effective dose (MinED). This design is motivated by the top priority and concern of clinicians when testing a new drug, which is to effectively treat patients and minimize the chance of exposing them to subtherapeutic or overly toxic doses. It is used to design single-agent trials.

Multivariate Information-based Inductive Causation, better known by its acronym MIIC, is a causal discovery method, based on information theory principles, which learns a large class of causal or non-causal graphical models from purely observational data, while including the effects of unobserved latent variables. Starting from a complete graph, the method iteratively removes dispensable edges, by uncovering significant information contributions from indirect paths, and assesses edge-specific confidences from randomization of available data. The remaining edges are then oriented based on the signature of causality in observational data. The recent more interpretable MIIC extension (iMIIC) further distinguishes genuine causes from putative and latent causal effects, while scaling to very large datasets (hundreds of thousands of samples). Since the version 2.0, MIIC also includes a temporal mode (tMIIC) to learn temporal causal graphs from stationary time series data. MIIC has been applied to a wide range of biological and biomedical data, such as single cell gene expression data, genomic alterations in tumors, live-cell time-lapse imaging data (CausalXtract), as well as medical records of patients. MIIC brings unique insights based on causal interpretation and could be used in a broad range of other data science domains (technology, climatology, economy, ...).

Estimates key quantities in causal mediation analysis - including average causal mediation effects (indirect effects), average direct effects, total effects, and proportions mediated - in the presence of multiple uncausally related mediators. Methods are described by Jérolon et al., (2021) <doi:10.1515/ijb-2019-0088> and extended to accommodate survival outcomes as described by Domingo-Relloso et al., (2024) <doi:10.1101/2024.02.16.24302923>.

This package provides estimation methods for markets in equilibrium and disequilibrium. Supports the estimation of an equilibrium and four disequilibrium models with both correlated and independent shocks. Also provides post-estimation analysis tools, such as aggregation, marginal effect, and shortage calculations. See Karapanagiotis (2024) <doi:10.18637/jss.v108.i02> for an overview of the functionality and examples. The estimation methods are based on full information maximum likelihood techniques given in Maddala and Nelson (1974) <doi:10.2307/1914215>. They are implemented using the analytic derivative expressions calculated in Karapanagiotis (2020) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.3525622>. Standard errors can be estimated by adjusting for heteroscedasticity or clustering. The equilibrium estimation constitutes a case of a system of linear, simultaneous equations. Instead, the disequilibrium models replace the market-clearing condition with a non-linear, short-side rule and allow for different specifications of price dynamics.

This package provides methods for fitting mixture distributions to univariate data using expectation maximization, HWHM and other methods.

This package provides a set of basic and extensible data structures and functions for multivariate analysis, including dimensionality reduction techniques, projection methods, and preprocessing functions. The aim of this package is to offer a flexible and user-friendly framework for multivariate analysis that can be easily extended for custom requirements and specific data analysis tasks.

Count data is prevalent and informative, with widespread application in many fields such as social psychology, personality, and public health. Classical statistical methods for the analysis of count outcomes are commonly variants of the log-linear model, including Poisson regression and Negative Binomial regression. However, a typical problem with count data modeling is inflation, in the sense that the counts are evidently accumulated on some integers. Such an inflation problem could distort the distribution of the observed counts, further bias estimation and increase error, making the classic methods infeasible. Traditional inflated value selection methods based on histogram inspection are easy to neglect true points and computationally expensive in addition. Therefore, we propose a multiple-inflated negative binomial model to handle count data modeling with multiple inflated values, achieving data-driven inflated value selection. The proposed approach provides simultaneous identification of important regression predictors on the target count response as well. More details about the proposed method are described in Li, Y., Wu, M., Wu, M., & Ma, S. (2023) <arXiv:2309.15585>.

This package provides a Momentumized, Adaptive, Dual Averaged Gradient Method for Stochastic Optimization algorithm. MADGRAD is a best-of-both-worlds optimizer with the generalization performance of stochastic gradient descent and at least as fast convergence as that of Adam, often faster. A drop-in optim_madgrad() implementation is provided based on Defazio et al (2020) <arxiv:2101.11075>.

Computes indirect effects, conditional effects, and conditional indirect effects in a structural equation model or path model after model fitting, with no need to define any user parameters or label any paths in the model syntax, using the approach presented in Cheung and Cheung (2024) <doi:10.3758/s13428-023-02224-z>. Can also form bootstrap confidence intervals by doing bootstrapping only once and reusing the bootstrap estimates in all subsequent computations. Supports bootstrap confidence intervals for standardized (partially or completely) indirect effects, conditional effects, and conditional indirect effects as described in Cheung (2009) <doi:10.3758/BRM.41.2.425> and Cheung, Cheung, Lau, Hui, and Vong (2022) <doi:10.1037/hea0001188>. Model fitting can be done by structural equation modeling using lavaan() or regression using lm().

Generalized Egger tests for detecting publication bias in meta-analysis for diagnostic accuracy test (Noma (2020) <doi:10.1111/biom.13343>, Noma (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2209.07270>). These publication bias tests are generally more powerful compared with the conventional univariate publication bias tests and can incorporate correlation information between the outcome variables.

This package provides functions for testing randomness for a univariate time series with arbitrary distribution (discrete, continuous, mixture of both types) and for testing independence between random variables with arbitrary distributions. The test statistics are based on the multilinear empirical copula and multipliers are used to compute P-values. The test of independence between random variables appeared in Genest, Nešlehová, Rémillard & Murphy (2019) and the test of randomness appeared in Nasri (2022).

Tests for block-diagonal structure in symmetric matrices (e.g. correlation matrices) under the null hypothesis of exchangeable off-diagonal elements. As described in Segal et al. (2019), these tests can be useful for construct validation either by themselves or as a complement to confirmatory factor analysis. Monte Carlo methods are used to approximate the permutation p-value with Hubert's Gamma (Hubert, 1976) and a t-statistic. This package also implements the chi-squared statistic described by Steiger (1980). Please see Segal, et al. (2019) <doi:10.1007/s11336-018-9647-4> for more information.

This package contains functions that allow Bayesian meta-analysis (1) with binomial data, counts(y) and total counts (n) or, (2) with user-supplied point estimates and associated variances. Case (1) provides an analysis based on the logit transformation of the sample proportion. This methodology is also appropriate for combining data from sample surveys and related sources. The functions can calculate the corresponding similarity matrix. More details can be found in Cahoy and Sedransk (2023), Cahoy and Sedransk (2022) <doi:10.1007/s42519-018-0027-2>, Evans and Sedransk (2001) <doi:10.1093/biomet/88.3.643>, and Malec and Sedransk (1992) <doi:10.1093/biomet/79.3.593>.

This package provides a declarative language for specifying multilevel models, solving for population parameters based on specified variance-explained effect size measures, generating data, and conducting power analyses to determine sample size recommendations. The specification allows for any number of within-cluster effects, between-cluster effects, covariate effects at either level, and random coefficients. Moreover, the models do not assume orthogonal effects, and predictors can correlate at either level and accommodate models with multiple interaction effects.

The rapid screening of effective and optimal therapies from large numbers of candidate combinations, as well as exploring subgroup efficacy, remains challenging, which necessitates innovative, integrated, and efficient trial designs(Yuan, Y., et al. (2016) <doi:10.1002/sim.6971>). MIDAS-2 package enables quick and continuous screening of promising combination strategies and exploration of their subgroup effects within a unified platform design framework. We used a regression model to characterize the efficacy pattern in subgroups. Information borrowing was applied through Bayesian hierarchical model to improve trial efficiency considering the limited sample size in subgroups(Cunanan, K. M., et al. (2019) <doi:10.1177/1740774518812779>). MIDAS-2 provides an adaptive drug screening and subgroup exploring framework to accelerate immunotherapy development in an efficient, accurate, and integrated fashion(Wathen, J. K., & Thall, P. F. (2017) <doi: 10.1177/1740774517692302>).
