Function and support for medication and dosing information extraction from free-text clinical notes. Medication entities for the basic medExtractR implementation that can be extracted include drug name, strength, dose amount, dose, frequency, intake time, dose change, and time of last dose. The basic medExtractR is outlined in Weeks, Beck, McNeer, Williams, Bejan, Denny, Choi (2020) <doi: 10.1093/jamia/ocz207>. The extended medExtractR_tapering implementation is intended to extract dosing information for more tapering schedules, which are far more complex. The tapering extension allows for the extraction of additional entities including dispense amount, refills, dose schedule, time keyword, transition, and preposition.

Offers a general framework of multivariate mixed-effects models for the joint analysis of multiple correlated outcomes with clustered data structures and potential missingness proposed by Wang et al. (2018) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxy022>. The missingness of outcome values may depend on the values themselves (missing not at random and non-ignorable), or may depend on only the covariates (missing at random and ignorable), or both. This package provides functions for two models: 1) mvMISE_b() allows correlated outcome-specific random intercepts with a factor-analytic structure, and 2) mvMISE_e() allows the correlated outcome-specific error terms with a graphical lasso penalty on the error precision matrix. Both functions are motivated by the multivariate data analysis on data with clustered structures from labelling-based quantitative proteomic studies. These models and functions can also be applied to univariate and multivariate analyses of clustered data with balanced or unbalanced design and no missingness.

This package implements minimax approximation of functions via the Remez (1962) algorithm for polynomials and the Cody-Fraser-Hart (1968) <doi:10.1007/BF02162506> algorithm for rational functions, as well as their barycentric formulations: the Pachón-Trefethen (2009) <doi:10.1007/s10543-009-0240-1> algorithm for polynomials and the Filip-Nakatsukasa-Trefethen-Beckermann (2018) <doi:10.1137/17M1132409> algorithm for rational functions, which provide improved numerical stability at higher degrees and on wider intervals.

Fits multivariate (Brownian Motion, Early Burst, ACDC, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck and Shifts) models of continuous traits evolution on trees and time series. mvMORPH also proposes high-dimensional multivariate comparative tools (linear models using Generalized Least Squares and multivariate tests) based on penalized likelihood and Empirical Bayes approaches. See Clavel et al. (2015) <DOI:10.1111/2041-210X.12420>, Clavel et al. (2019) <DOI:10.1093/sysbio/syy045>, Clavel & Morlon (2020) <DOI:10.1093/sysbio/syaa010>, and Montoya et al. (2026) <DOI:10.1093/sysbio/syag051>.

This package provides a collection of functions for the analysis of archaeological mortality data (on the topic see e.g. Chamberlain 2006 <https://books.google.de/books?id=nG5FoO_becAC&lpg=PA27&ots=LG0b_xrx6O&dq=life%20table%20archaeology&pg=PA27#v=onepage&q&f=false>). It takes demographic data in different formats and displays the result in a standard life table as well as plots the relevant indices (percentage of deaths, survivorship, probability of death, life expectancy, percentage of population). It also checks for possible biases in the age structure and applies corrections to life tables.

Multi-omic (or any multi-view) spectral clustering methods often assume the same number of clusters across all datasets. We supply methods for multi-omic spectral clustering when the number of distinct clusters differs among the omics profiles (views).

This package provides a comprehensive collection of linkage methods for agglomerative hierarchical clustering on a matrix of proximity data (distances or similarities), returning a multifurcated dendrogram or multidendrogram. Multidendrograms can group more than two clusters when ties in proximity data occur, and therefore they do not depend on the order of the input data. Descriptive measures to analyze the resulting dendrogram are additionally provided. <doi:10.18637/jss.v114.i02>.

Framework for the Item Response Theory analysis of dichotomous and ordinal polytomous outcomes under the assumption of within-item multidimensionality and discreteness of the latent traits. The fitting algorithms allow for missing responses and for different item parametrizations and are based on the Expectation-Maximization paradigm. Individual covariates affecting the class weights may be included in the new version together with possibility of constraints on all model parameters.

This package implements Multivariable Functional Mendelian Randomization (MV-FMR) to estimate time-varying causal effects of multiple longitudinal exposures on health outcomes. Extends univariable functional Mendelian Randomisation (MR) (Tian et al., 2024 <doi:10.1002/sim.10222>) to the multivariable setting, enabling joint estimation of multiple time-varying exposures with pleiotropy and mediation scenarios. Key features include: (1) data-driven cross-validation for basis component selection, (2) handling of mediation pathways between exposures, (3) support for both continuous and binary outcomes using Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) and control function approaches, (4) one-sample and two-sample MR designs, (5) bootstrap inference and instrument diagnostics including Q-statistics for overidentification testing. Methods are described in Fontana et al. (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2512.19064>.

It offers random-forest-based functions to impute clustered incomplete data. The package is tailored for but not limited to imputing multitissue expression data, in which a gene's expression is measured on the collected tissues of an individual but missing on the uncollected tissues.

This package provides a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) based approach to Bayesian estimation of individual level multiplicity of infection, within host relatedness, and population allele frequencies from polyallelic genetic data. Implements the model described in Murphy and Greenhouse (2024) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btae619>.

This package provides a metadata structure for clinical data analysis and reporting based on Analysis Data Model (ADaM) datasets. The package simplifies clinical analysis and reporting tool development by defining standardized inputs, outputs, and workflow. The package can be used to create analysis and reporting planning grid, mock table, and validated analysis and reporting results based on consistent inputs.

Test the marginal correlation between a scalar response variable with a vector of explanatory variables using the max-type test with bootstrap. The test is based on the max-type statistic and its asymptotic distribution under the null hypothesis of no marginal correlation. The bootstrap procedure is used to approximate the null distribution of the test statistic. The package provides a function for performing the test. For more technical details, refer to Zhang and Laber (2014) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2015.1106403>.

Multi-Dimensional Analysis (MDA) is an adaptation of factor analysis developed by Douglas Biber (1992) <doi:10.1007/BF00136979>. Its most common use is to describe language as it varies by genre, register, and use. This package contains functions for carrying out the calculations needed to describe and plot MDA results: dimension scores, dimension means, and factor loadings.

This package provides a convenient interface in OpenMx for building Estabrook's (2015) <doi:10.1037/a0034523> Measurement Model of Derivatives (MMOD).

Alternative implementation of the beautiful MissForest algorithm used to impute mixed-type data sets by chaining random forests, introduced by Stekhoven, D.J. and Buehlmann, P. (2012) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btr597>. Under the hood, it uses the lightning fast random forest package ranger'. Between the iterative model fitting, we offer the option of using predictive mean matching. This firstly avoids imputation with values not already present in the original data (like a value 0.3334 in 0-1 coded variable). Secondly, predictive mean matching tries to raise the variance in the resulting conditional distributions to a realistic level. This would allow, e.g., to do multiple imputation when repeating the call to missRanger(). Out-of-sample application is supported as well.

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 provides a set of functions to calculate solar irradiance and insolation on Mars horizontal and inclined surfaces. Based on NASA Technical Memoranda 102299, 103623, 105216, 106321, and 106700, i.e. the canonical Mars solar radiation papers.

Hierarchical workspace tree, code editing and backup, easy package prep, editing of packages while loaded, per-object lazy-loading, easy documentation, macro functions, and miscellaneous utilities. Needed by various packages including debug, offarray, and kinference.

This package provides a lavaan'-like syntax for OpenMx models. The syntax supports definition variables, bounds, and parameter transformations. This allows for latent growth curve models with person-specific measurement occasions, moderated nonlinear factor analysis and much more.

Visualize confounder control in meta-analysis. metaconfoundr is an approach to evaluating bias in studies used in meta-analyses based on the causal inference framework. Study groups create a causal diagram displaying their assumptions about the scientific question. From this, they develop a list of important confounders'. Then, they evaluate whether studies controlled for these variables well. metaconfoundr is a toolkit to facilitate this process and visualize the results as heat maps, traffic light plots, and more.

This package implements the multivariate adaptive shrinkage (mash) method of Urbut et al (2019) <DOI:10.1038/s41588-018-0268-8> for estimating and testing large numbers of effects in many conditions (or many outcomes). Mash takes an empirical Bayes approach to testing and effect estimation; it estimates patterns of similarity among conditions, then exploits these patterns to improve accuracy of the effect estimates. The core linear algebra is implemented in C++ for fast model fitting and posterior computation.

Constructs mixed-level and regular fractional factorial designs using coordinate-exchange optimization and automatic generator search. Design quality is evaluated with J2 and balance (H-hat) criteria, alias structures are computed via correlation-based chaining, and deterministic trend-free run orders can be produced following Coster (1993) <doi:10.1214/aos/1176349410>. Mixed-level design construction follows the NONBPA approach of Pantoja-Pacheco et al. (2021) <doi:10.3390/math9131455>. Regular fraction identification follows Guo, Simpson and Pignatiello (2007) <doi:10.1080/00224065.2007.11917691>. Alias structure computation follows Rios-Lira et al.(2021) <doi:10.3390/math9233053>.

This package implements the multivariate autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) unit root test of Sam, McNown, Goh and Goh (2025) <doi:10.1080/03796205.2024.2439101>. The test augments the ADF regression with the lagged level, the current difference and lagged differences of one or more covariates so that cointegration between the series under test and the covariates is taken into account. The t statistic on the lagged level of the series and the joint F statistic on the lagged levels of the covariates are bootstrapped with the respective null imposed (residual bootstrap), giving critical values and p-values. Provides automatic lag selection via AIC or BIC, diagnostic plots, and the four-case classification of the order of integration of the series.
