An implementation of a Bayesian sparse group model using spike and slab priors in a regression context. It is designed for regression with a multivariate response variable, but also provides an implementation for univariate response.

Estimation equations are from a variety of sources and associated error estimation.

Support JSON flattening in a long data frame way, where the nesting keys will be stored in the absolute path. It also provides an easy way to summarize the basic description of a JSON list. The idea of mojson is to transform a JSON object in an absolute serialization way, which means the early key-value pairs will appear in the heading rows of the resultant data frame. mojson also provides an alternative way of comparing two different JSON lists, returning the left/inner/right-join style results.

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.

Agricultural data for 1888-2021 from the Morrow Plots at the University of Illinois. The world's second oldest ongoing agricultural experiment, the Morrow Plots measure the impact of crop rotation and fertility treatments on corn yields. The data includes planting information and annual yield measures for corn grown continuously and in rotation with other crops, in treated and untreated soil.

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>.

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.

Life expectancy is highly correlated over time among countries and between males and females. These associations can be used to improve forecasts. Here we have implemented a method for forecasting female life expectancy based on analysis of the gap between female life expectancy in a country compared with the record level of female life expectancy in the world. Second, to forecast male life expectancy, the gap between male life expectancy and female life expectancy in a country is analysed. We named this method the Double-Gap model. For a detailed description of the method see Pascariu et al. (2018). <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2017.09.011>.

This package creates sophisticated models of training data and validates the models with an independent test set, cross validation, or Out Of Bag (OOB) predictions on the training data. Create graphs and tables of the model validation results. Applies these models to GIS .img files of predictors to create detailed prediction surfaces. Handles large predictor files for map making, by reading in the .img files in chunks, and output to the .txt file the prediction for each data chunk, before reading the next chunk of data.

Toolbox and shiny application to help researchers design movement ecology studies, focusing on two key objectives: estimating home range areas, and estimating fine-scale movement behavior, specifically speed and distance traveled. It provides interactive simulations and methodological guidance to support study planning and decision-making. The application is described in Silva et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.14153>.

This package provides programmatic access to the Meetup GraphQL API (<https://www.meetup.com/graphql/>), enabling users to retrieve information about groups, events, and members from Meetup (<https://www.meetup.com/>).

Implementation of a next-generation, multi-stock age-structured fisheries assessment model. multiSA is intended for use in mixed fisheries where stock composition can not be readily identified in fishery data alone, e.g., from catch and age/length composition. Models can be fitted to genetic data, e.g., stock composition of catches and close-kin pairs, with seasonal stock availability and movement.

It is designed to work with text written in Bahasa Malaysia. We provide functions and data sets that will make working with Bahasa Malaysia text much easier. For word stemming in particular, we will look up the Malay words in a dictionary and then proceed to remove "extra suffix" as explained in Khan, Rehman Ullah, Fitri Suraya Mohamad, Muh Inam UlHaq, Shahren Ahmad Zadi Adruce, Philip Nuli Anding, Sajjad Nawaz Khan, and Abdulrazak Yahya Saleh Al-Hababi (2017) <https://ijrest.net/vol-4-issue-12.html> . This package includes a dictionary of Malay words that may be used to perform word stemming, a dataset of Malay stop words, a dataset of sentiment words and a dataset of normalized words.

Co-Expression Network Analysis by adopting network embedding technique. Song W.-M., Zhang B. (2015) Multiscale Embedded Gene Co-expression Network Analysis. PLoS Comput Biol 11(11): e1004574. <doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1004574>.

Based on the work of Curi, Converse, Hajewski, and Oliveira (2019) <doi:10.1109/IJCNN.2019.8852333>. This package provides easy-to-use functions which create a variational autoencoder (VAE) to be used for parameter estimation in Item Response Theory (IRT) - namely the Multidimensional Logistic 2-Parameter (ML2P) model. To use a neural network as such, nontrivial modifications to the architecture must be made, such as restricting the nonzero weights in the decoder according to some binary matrix Q. The functions in this package allow for straight-forward construction, training, and evaluation so that minimal knowledge of tensorflow or keras is required.

Multivariate functional principal component analysis via fast covariance estimation for multivariate sparse functional data or longitudinal data proposed by Li, Xiao, and Luo (2020) <doi: 10.1002/sta4.245>.

Multi modality data matrices are factorized conjointly into the multiplication of a shared sub-matrix and multiple modality specific sub-matrices, group sparse constraint is applied to the shared sub-matrix to capture the homogeneous and heterogeneous information, respectively. Then the samples are classified by clustering the shared sub-matrix with kmeanspp(), a new version of kmeans() developed here to obtain concordant results. The package also provides the cluster number estimation by rotation cost. Moreover, cluster specific features could be retrieved using hypergeometric tests.
