The midasml package implements estimation and prediction methods for high-dimensional mixed-frequency (MIDAS) time-series and panel data regression models. The regularized MIDAS models are estimated using orthogonal (e.g. Legendre) polynomials and sparse-group LASSO (sg-LASSO) estimator. For more information on the midasml approach see Babii, Ghysels, and Striaukas (2021, JBES forthcoming) <doi:10.1080/07350015.2021.1899933>. The package is equipped with the fast implementation of the sg-LASSO estimator by means of proximal block coordinate descent. High-dimensional mixed frequency time-series data can also be easily manipulated with functions provided in the package.

This package provides functions and wrappers for using the Multiple Aggregation Prediction Algorithm (MAPA) for time series forecasting. MAPA models and forecasts time series at multiple temporal aggregation levels, thus strengthening and attenuating the various time series components for better holistic estimation of its structure. For details see Kourentzes et al. (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.ijforecast.2013.09.006>.

Data and examples from a multilevel modelling software review as well as other well-known data sets from the multilevel modelling literature.

Inference of a multi-states birth-death model from a phylogeny, comprising a number of states N, birth and death rates for each state and on which edges each state appears. Inference is done using a hybrid approach: states are progressively added in a greedy approach. For a fixed number of states N the best model is selected via maximum likelihood. Reference: J. Barido-Sottani, T. G. Vaughan and T. Stadler (2018) <doi:10.1098/rsif.2018.0512>.

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>.

This package implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Users can start R'-based servers, serving functions as tools for large language models to call before responding to the user in MCP-compatible apps like Claude Desktop and Claude Code', with options to run those tools inside of interactive R sessions. On the other end, when R is the client via the ellmer package, users can register tools from third-party MCP servers to integrate additional context into chats.
