Multivariate Time Series (MTS) is a general package for analyzing multivariate linear time series and estimating multivariate volatility models. It also handles factor models, constrained factor models, asymptotic principal component analysis commonly used in finance and econometrics, and principal volatility component analysis. (a) For the multivariate linear time series analysis, the package performs model specification, estimation, model checking, and prediction for many widely used models, including vector AR models, vector MA models, vector ARMA models, seasonal vector ARMA models, VAR models with exogenous variables, multivariate regression models with time series errors, augmented VAR models, and Error-correction VAR models for co-integrated time series. For model specification, the package performs structural specification to overcome the difficulties of identifiability of VARMA models. The methods used for structural specification include Kronecker indices and Scalar Component Models. (b) For multivariate volatility modeling, the MTS package handles several commonly used models, including multivariate exponentially weighted moving-average volatility, Cholesky decomposition volatility models, dynamic conditional correlation (DCC) models, copula-based volatility models, and low-dimensional BEKK models. The package also considers multiple tests for conditional heteroscedasticity, including rank-based statistics. (c) Finally, the MTS package also performs forecasting using diffusion index , transfer function analysis, Bayesian estimation of VAR models, and multivariate time series analysis with missing values.Users can also use the package to simulate VARMA models, to compute impulse response functions of a fitted VARMA model, and to calculate theoretical cross-covariance matrices of a given VARMA model.

This package implements likelihood inference based on higher order approximations for linear nonnormal regression models.

Zaynab Hammoud and Frank Kramer (2018) <doi:10.3390/genes9110519>. More about multilayered graphs and their usage can be found in our review paper: Zaynab Hammoud and Frank Kramer (2020) <doi:10.1186/s41044-020-00046-0>.

When a network is partially observed (here, NAs in the adjacency matrix rather than 1 or 0 due to missing information between node pairs), it is possible to account for the underlying process that generates those NAs. missSBM', presented in Barbillon, Chiquet and Tabouy (2022) <doi:10.18637/jss.v101.i12>, adjusts the popular stochastic block model from network data sampled under various missing data conditions, as described in Tabouy, Barbillon and Chiquet (2019) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1562934>.

This package implements methodologies for modelling interval data by Normal and Skew-Normal distributions, considering appropriate parameterizations of the variance-covariance matrix that takes into account the intrinsic nature of interval data, and lead to four different possible configuration structures. The Skew-Normal parameters can be estimated by maximum likelihood, while Normal parameters may be estimated by maximum likelihood or robust trimmed maximum likelihood methods.

This package provides a comprehensive framework for calculating unbiased distances in datasets containing mixed-type variables (numerical and categorical). The package implements a general formulation that ensures multivariate additivity and commensurability, meaning that variables contribute equally to the overall distance regardless of their type, scale, or distribution. Supports multiple distance measures including Gower's distance, Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, and various categorical variable distances such as simple matching, Eskin, occurrence frequency, and association-based distances. Provides tools for variable scaling (standard deviation, range, robust range, and principal component scaling), and handles both independent and association-based category dissimilarities. Implements methods to correct for biases that typically arise from different variable types, distributions, and number of categories. Particularly useful for cluster analysis, data visualization, and other distance-based methods when working with mixed data. Methods based on van de Velden et al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2411.00429> "Unbiased mixed variables distance".

Model selection and averaging for regression and mixtures, inclusing Bayesian model selection and information criteria (BIC, EBIC, AIC, GIC).

Estimate diagnostic classification models (also called cognitive diagnostic models) with Stan'. Diagnostic classification models are confirmatory latent class models, as described by Rupp et al. (2010, ISBN: 978-1-60623-527-0). Automatically generate Stan code for the general loglinear cognitive diagnostic diagnostic model proposed by Henson et al. (2009) <doi:10.1007/s11336-008-9089-5> and other subtypes that introduce additional model constraints. Using the generated Stan code, estimate the model evaluate the model's performance using model fit indices, information criteria, and reliability metrics.
