This package provides a simulation modeling framework which significantly extends capabilities from the MGDrivE simulation package via a new mathematical and computational framework based on stochastic Petri nets. For more information about MGDrivE', see our publication: Sánchez et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13318> Some of the notable capabilities of MGDrivE2 include: incorporation of human populations, epidemiological dynamics, time-varying parameters, and a continuous-time simulation framework with various sampling algorithms for both deterministic and stochastic interpretations. MGDrivE2 relies on the genetic inheritance structures provided in package MGDrivE', so we suggest installing that package initially.

Defines predict function that transforms output from a Tweedie Generalized Linear Mixed Model (using glmmTMB'), Generalized Additive Model (using mgcv'), or spatio-temporal Generalized Linear Mixed Model (using package tinyVAST'), and returns predicted proportions (and standard errors) across a grouping variable from an equivalent multivariate-logit Tweedie model. These predicted proportions can then be used for standard plotting and diagnostics. See Thorson et al. 2022 <doi:10.1002/ecy.3637>.

Extract cross sections from long bone meshes at specified intervals along the diaphysis. Calculate two and three-dimensional morphometric maps, cross-sectional geometric parameters, and semilandmarks on the periosteal and endosteal contours of each cross section.

Some enhancements, extensions and additions to the facilities of the recommended MASS package that are useful mainly for teaching purposes, with more convenient default settings and user interfaces. Key functions from MASS are imported and re-exported to avoid masking conflicts. In addition we provide some additional functions mainly used to illustrate coding paradigms and techniques, such as Gramm-Schmidt orthogonalisation and generalised eigenvalue problems.

This package provides a multiple-response chi-square framework for the analysis of contingency tables arising from multiple-response questionnaires, such as check-all-that-apply tasks, where response options are crossed with a known grouping factor. The framework accommodates within-block (e.g., within-subject) designs, as commonly encountered in sensory evaluation. It comprises a multiple-response chi-square test of homogeneity with an associated dimensionality test, a multiple-response Correspondence Analysis (CA), and per-cell multiple-response hypergeometric tests. These methods extend their classical counterparts by grounding inference in a null model that properly accounts for the multiple-response nature of the data, treating evaluations, rather than individual citations, as the experimental units, yielding more statistically valid conclusions than standard contingency table analyses. Details may be found in Mahieu, Schlich, Visalli, and Cardot (2021). <doi:10.1016/j.foodqual.2021.104256>.

This package provides a modeltime extension that implements time series ensemble forecasting methods including model averaging, weighted averaging, and stacking. These techniques are popular methods to improve forecast accuracy and stability.

Modern model-based geostatistics for point-referenced data. This package provides a simple interface to run spatial machine learning models and geostatistical models that estimate a continuous (raster) surface from point-referenced outcomes and, optionally, a set of raster covariates. The package also includes functions to summarize raster outcomes by (polygon) region while preserving uncertainty.

Calculate predicted levels and marginal effects, using the delta method to calculate standard errors. This is an R-based version of the margins command from Stata.

Metadynamics is a state of the art biomolecular simulation technique. Plumed Tribello, G.A. et al. (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2013.09.018> program makes it possible to perform metadynamics using various simulation codes. The results of metadynamics done in Plumed can be analyzed by metadynminer'. The package metadynminer reads 1D and 2D metadynamics hills files from Plumed package. As an addendum, metadynaminer3d is used to visualize 3D hills. It uses a fast algorithm by Hosek, P. and Spiwok, V. (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2015.08.037> to calculate a free energy surface from hills. Minima can be located and plotted on the free energy surface. Free energy surfaces and minima can be plotted to produce publication quality images.

An implementation of matrix mathematics wherein operations are performed "by name.".

This package provides a specialized collection of measles epidemiological models built on the epiworldR framework. This package is a spinoff from epiworldR focusing specifically on measles transmission dynamics. It includes models for school settings with quarantine and isolation policies, mixing models with population groups, and risk-based quarantine strategies. The models use Agent-Based Models (ABM) with a fast C++ backend from the epiworld library. Ideal for studying measles outbreaks, vaccination strategies, and intervention policies.

If results from a meta-GWAS are used for validation in one of the cohorts that was included in the meta-analysis, this will yield biased (i.e. too optimistic) results. The validation cohort needs to be independent from the meta-Genome-Wide-Association-Study (meta-GWAS) results. MetaSubtract will subtract the results of the respective cohort from the meta-GWAS results analytically without having to redo the meta-GWAS analysis using the leave-one-out methodology. It can handle different meta-analyses methods and takes into account if single or double genomic control correction was applied to the original meta-analysis. It can also handle different meta-analysis methods. It can be used for whole GWAS, but also for a limited set of genetic markers. See for application: Nolte I.M. et al. (2017); <doi: 10.1038/ejhg.2017.50>.

You can apply image processing effects that modifies the perceived material properties of objects in photos, such as gloss, smoothness, and blemishes.

Constructs genetic linkage maps in autopolyploid full-sib populations. Uses pairwise recombination fraction estimation as the first source of information to sequentially position allelic variants in specific homologous chromosomes. For situations where pairwise analysis has limited power, the algorithm relies on the multilocus likelihood obtained through a hidden Markov model (HMM). Methods are described in Mollinari and Garcia (2019) <doi:10.1534/g3.119.400378> and Mollinari et al. (2020) <doi:10.1534/g3.119.400620>.

Extends the base classes and methods of caret package for integration of base learners. The user can input the number of different base learners, and specify the final learner, along with the train-validation-test data partition split ratio. The predictions on the unseen new data is the resultant of the ensemble meta-learning <https://machinelearningmastery.com/stacking-ensemble-machine-learning-with-python/> of the heterogeneous learners aimed to reduce the generalization error in the predictive models. It significantly lowers the barrier for the practitioners to apply heterogeneous ensemble learning techniques in an amateur fashion to their everyday predictive problems.

Package for fast computation of the maximum kernel likelihood estimator (mkle).

Describes spatial patterns of categorical raster data for any defined regular and irregular areas. Patterns are described quantitatively using built-in signatures based on co-occurrence matrices but also allows for any user-defined functions. It enables spatial analysis such as search, change detection, and clustering to be performed on spatial patterns (Nowosad (2021) <doi:10.1007/s10980-020-01135-0>).

Computing functional traits-based distances between pairs of species for species gathered in assemblages allowing to build several functional spaces. The package allows to compute functional diversity indices assessing the distribution of species (and of their dominance) in a given functional space for each assemblage and the overlap between assemblages in a given functional space, see: Chao et al. (2018) <doi:10.1002/ecm.1343>, Maire et al. (2015) <doi:10.1111/geb.12299>, Mouillot et al. (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.tree.2012.10.004>, Mouillot et al. (2014) <doi:10.1073/pnas.1317625111>, Ricotta and Szeidl (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.tpb.2009.10.001>. Graphical outputs are included.

The unique function of this package allows representing in a single graph the relative occurrence and co-occurrence of events measured in a sample. As examples, the package was applied to describe the occurrence and co-occurrence of different species of bacterial or viral symbionts infecting arthropods at the individual level. The graphics allows determining the prevalence of each symbiont and the patterns of multiple infections (i.e. how different symbionts share or not the same individual hosts). We named the package after the famous painter as the graphical output recalls Mondrianâ s paintings.
