This package provides methods and tools for deriving spatial summary functions from single-cell imaging data and performing functional data analyses. Functions can be applied to other single-cell technologies such as spatial transcriptomics. Functional regression and functional principal component analysis methods are in the refund package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=refund> while calculation of the spatial summary functions are from the spatstat package <https://spatstat.org/>.

Can detect relatively weak spatial genetic patterns by using Moran's Eigenvector Maps (MEM) to extract only the spatial component of genetic variation. Has applications in landscape genetics where the movement and dispersal of organisms are studied using neutral genetic variation.

Multidimensional unfolding using Schoenemann's algorithm for metric and Procrustes rotation of unfolding results.

Code to support a systems biology research program from inception through publication. The methods focus on dimension reduction approaches to detect patterns in complex, multivariate experimental data and places an emphasis on informative visualizations. The goal for this project is to create a package that will evolve over time, thereby remaining relevant and reflective of current methods and techniques. As a result, we encourage suggested additions to the package, both methodological and graphical.

Exploratory and predictive methods for the analysis of several blocks of variables measured on the same individuals.

Meta-analysis traditionally assigns more weight to studies with lower standard errors, assuming higher precision. However, in observational research, precision must be estimated and is vulnerable to manipulation, such as p-hacking, to achieve statistical significance. This can lead to spurious precision, invalidating inverse-variance weighting and bias-correction methods like funnel plots. Common methods for addressing publication bias, including selection models, often fail or exacerbate the problem. This package introduces an instrumental variable approach to limit bias caused by spurious precision in meta-analysis. Methods are described in Irsova et al. (2025) <doi:10.1038/s41467-025-63261-0>.

This package implements the computation of discrepancy statistics summarizing differences between the density of imputed and observed values and the construction of weights to balance covariates that are part of the missing data mechanism as described in Marbach (2021) <arXiv:2107.05427>.

Create an immutable container holding metadata for the purpose of better enabling programming activities and functionality of other packages within the clinical programming workflow.

This package implements large-scale hypothesis testing by variance mixing. It takes two statistics per testing unit -- an estimated effect and its associated squared standard error -- and fits a nonparametric, shape-constrained mixture separately on two latent parameters. It reports local false discovery rates (lfdr) and local false sign rates (lfsr). Manuscript describing algorithm of MixTwice: Zheng et al(2021) <doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btab162>.

Simulates respiratory virus epidemics using meta-population compartmental models following Fadikar et. al. (2025) <doi:10.1101/2025.05.05.25327021>. MetaRVM implements a stochastic SEIRD (Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Recovered-Dead) framework with demographic stratification by age, race, and geographic zones. It supports complex epidemiological scenarios including asymptomatic and presymptomatic transmission, hospitalization dynamics, vaccination schedules, and time-varying contact patterns via mixing matrices.

This package provides R6 objects to perform parallelized hyperparameter optimization and cross-validation. Hyperparameter optimization can be performed with Bayesian optimization (via ParBayesianOptimization <https://cran.r-project.org/package=ParBayesianOptimization>) and grid search. The optimized hyperparameters can be validated using k-fold cross-validation. Alternatively, hyperparameter optimization and validation can be performed with nested cross-validation. While mlexperiments focuses on core wrappers for machine learning experiments, additional learner algorithms can be supplemented by inheriting from the provided learner base class.

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 provides a user-friendly way for the analysis of multinomial processing tree (MPT) models (e.g., Riefer, D. M., and Batchelder, W. H. [1988]. Multinomial modeling and the measurement of cognitive processes. Psychological Review, 95, 318-339) for single and multiple datasets. The main functions perform model fitting and model selection. Model selection can be done using AIC, BIC, or the Fisher Information Approximation (FIA) a measure based on the Minimum Description Length (MDL) framework. The model and restrictions can be specified in external files or within an R script in an intuitive syntax or using the context-free language for MPTs. The classical .EQN file format for model files is also supported. Besides MPTs, this package can fit a wide variety of other cognitive models such as SDT models (see fit.model). It also supports multicore fitting and FIA calculation (using the snowfall package), can generate or bootstrap data for simulations, and plot predicted versus observed data.

The provided package implements multiple contrast tests for functional data (Munko et al., 2023, <arXiv:2306.15259>). These procedures enable us to evaluate the overall hypothesis regarding equality, as well as specific hypotheses defined by contrasts. In particular, we can perform post hoc tests to examine particular comparisons of interest. Different experimental designs are supported, e.g., one-way and multi-way analysis of variance for functional data.

Generate the monotonic binning and perform the woe (weight of evidence) transformation for the logistic regression used in the consumer credit scorecard development. The woe transformation is a piecewise transformation that is linear to the log odds. For a numeric variable, all of its monotonic functional transformations will converge to the same woe transformation.

Uses disordR discipline.

Mobile-monitoring or "sensors on a mobile platform", is an increasingly popular approach to measure high-resolution pollution data at the street level. Coupled with location data, spatial visualisation of air-quality parameters helps detect localized areas of high air-pollution, also called hotspots. In this approach, portable sensors are mounted on a vehicle and driven on predetermined routes to collect high frequency data (1 Hz). mmaqshiny is for analysing, visualising and spatial mapping of high-resolution air-quality data collected by specific devices installed on a moving platform. 1 Hz data of PM2.5 (mass concentrations of particulate matter with size less than 2.5 microns), Black carbon mass concentrations (BC), ultra-fine particle number concentrations, carbon dioxide along with GPS coordinates and relative humidity (RH) data collected by popular portable instruments (TSI DustTrak-8530, Aethlabs microAeth-AE51, TSI CPC3007, LICOR Li-830, Garmin GPSMAP 64s, Omega USB RH probe respectively). It incorporates device specific cleaning and correction algorithms. RH correction is applied to DustTrak PM2.5 following the Chakrabarti et al., (2004) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2004.03.007>. Provision is given to add linear regression coefficients for correcting the PM2.5 data (if required). BC data will be cleaned for the vibration generated noise, by adopting the statistical procedure as explained in Apte et al., (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2011.05.028>, followed by a loading correction as suggested by Ban-Weiss et al., (2009) <doi:10.1021/es8021039>. For the number concentration data, provision is given for dilution correction factor (if a diluter is used with CPC3007; default value is 1). The package joins the raw, cleaned and corrected data from the above said instruments and outputs as a downloadable csv file.

Framework to facilitate patient subtyping with similarity network fusion and meta clustering. The similarity network fusion (SNF) algorithm was introduced by Wang et al. (2014) in <doi:10.1038/nmeth.2810>. SNF is a data integration approach that can transform high-dimensional and diverse data types into a single similarity network suitable for clustering with minimal loss of information from each initial data source. The meta clustering approach was introduced by Caruana et al. (2006) in <doi:10.1109/ICDM.2006.103>. Meta clustering involves generating a wide range of cluster solutions by adjusting clustering hyperparameters, then clustering the solutions themselves into a manageable number of qualitatively similar solutions, and finally characterizing representative solutions to find ones that are best for the user's specific context. This package provides a framework to easily transform multi-modal data into a wide range of similarity network fusion-derived cluster solutions as well as to visualize, characterize, and validate those solutions. Core package functionality includes easy customization of distance metrics, clustering algorithms, and SNF hyperparameters to generate diverse clustering solutions; calculation and plotting of associations between features, between patients, and between cluster solutions; and standard cluster validation approaches including resampled measures of cluster stability, standard metrics of cluster quality, and label propagation to evaluate generalizability in unseen data. Associated vignettes guide the user through using the package to identify patient subtypes while adhering to best practices for unsupervised learning.
