This package provides a Non-Metric Space Library ('NMSLIB <https://github.com/nmslib/nmslib>) wrapper, which according to the authors "is an efficient cross-platform similarity search library and a toolkit for evaluation of similarity search methods. The goal of the NMSLIB <https://github.com/nmslib/nmslib> Library is to create an effective and comprehensive toolkit for searching in generic non-metric spaces. Being comprehensive is important, because no single method is likely to be sufficient in all cases. Also note that exact solutions are hardly efficient in high dimensions and/or non-metric spaces. Hence, the main focus is on approximate methods". The wrapper also includes Approximate Kernel k-Nearest-Neighbor functions based on the NMSLIB <https://github.com/nmslib/nmslib> Python Library.

This package provides a computational toolkit for analyzing nematode communities in ecological studies. Includes methods to quantify nematode-based ecological indicators such as metabolic footprints, energy flow metrics, and community structure. These tools support assessments of soil health, ecosystem functioning, and trophic interactions, standardizing the use of nematodes as bioindicators.

Nonparametric Failure Time (NFT) Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART): Time-to-event Machine Learning with Heteroskedastic Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (HBART) and Low Information Omnibus (LIO) Dirichlet Process Mixtures (DPM). An NFT BART model is of the form Y = mu + f(x) + sd(x) E where functions f and sd have BART and HBART priors, respectively, while E is a nonparametric error distribution due to a DPM LIO prior hierarchy. See the following for a description of the model at <doi:10.1111/biom.13857>.

This package provides a set of functions providing the implementation of the network meta-analysis model with dose-response relationships, predicted values of the fitted model and dose-response plots in a frequentist way.

Normalize a given Hadamard matrix. A Hadamard matrix is said to be normalized when its first row and first column entries are all 1, see Hedayat, A. and Wallis, W. D. (1978) "Hadamard matrices and their applications. The Annals of Statistics, 1184-1238." <doi:10.1214/aos/1176344370>.

Simulate demand and attributes for ready to launch new products during their life cycle, or during their introduction and growth phases. You provide the number of products, attributes, time periods and/or other parameters and npdsim can simulate for you the demand for each product during the considered time periods, and the attributes of each product. The simulation for the demand is based on the idea that each product has a shape and a level, where the level is the cumulative demand over the considered time periods, and the shape is the normalized demand across those time periods.

Lite interface for getting data from OSM service Nominatim <https://nominatim.org/release-docs/latest/>. Extract coordinates from addresses, find places near a set of coordinates and return spatial objects on sf format.

Segregation is a network-level property such that edges between predefined groups of vertices are relatively less likely. Network homophily is a individual-level tendency to form relations with people who are similar on some attribute (e.g. gender, music taste, social status, etc.). In general homophily leads to segregation, but segregation might arise without homophily. This package implements descriptive indices measuring homophily/segregation. It is a computational companion to Bojanowski & Corten (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.socnet.2014.04.001>.

Neighbourhood functions are key components of local-search algorithms such as Simulated Annealing or Threshold Accepting. These functions take a solution and return a slightly-modified copy of it, i.e. a neighbour. The package provides a function neighbourfun() that constructs such neighbourhood functions, based on parameters such as admissible ranges for elements in a solution. Supported are numeric and logical solutions. The algorithms were originally created for portfolio-optimisation applications, but can be used for other models as well. Several recipes for neighbour computations are taken from "Numerical Methods and Optimization in Finance" by M. Gilli, D. Maringer and E. Schumann (2019, ISBN:978-0128150658).

Library to plot performance profiles (Dolan and More (2002) <doi:10.1007/s101070100263>) and nested performance profiles (Hekmati and Mirhajianmoghadam (2019) <doi:10.19139/soic-2310-5070-679>) for a given data frame.

NanoString nCounter data are gene expression assays where there is no need for the use of enzymes or amplification protocols and work with fluorescent barcodes (Geiss et al. (2018) <doi:10.1038/nbt1385>). Each barcode is assigned a messenger-RNA/micro-RNA (mRNA/miRNA) which after bonding with its target can be counted. As a result each count of a specific barcode represents the presence of its target mRNA/miRNA. NACHO (NAnoString quality Control dasHbOard) is able to analyse the exported NanoString nCounter data and facilitates the user in performing a quality control. NACHO does this by visualising quality control metrics, expression of control genes, principal components and sample specific size factors in an interactive web application.

This package provides functions to calculate the normalised Lineage-Through- Time (nLTT) statistic, given two phylogenetic trees. The nLTT statistic measures the difference between two Lineage-Through-Time curves, where each curve is normalised both in time and in number of lineages.

This package provides a suite of tools that can assist in enhancing the processing efficiency of SQL and R scripts. - The libr_unused() retrieves a vector of package names that are called within an R script but are never actually used in the script. - The libr_used() retrieves a vector of package names actively utilized within an R script; packages loaded using library() but not actually used in the script will not be included. - The libr_called() retrieves a vector of all package names which are called within an R script. - nolock() appends WITH (nolock) to all tables in SQL queries. This facilitates reading from databases in scenarios where non-blocking reads are preferable, such as in high-transaction environments.

Helps a clinical trial team discuss the clinical goals of a well-defined biomarker with a diagnostic, staging, prognostic, or predictive purpose. From this discussion will come a statistical plan for a (non-randomized) validation trial. Both prospective and retrospective trials are supported. In a specific focused discussion, investigators should determine the range of "discomfort" for the NNT, number needed to treat. The meaning of the discomfort range, [NNTlower, NNTupper], is that within this range most physicians would feel discomfort either in treating or withholding treatment. A pair of NNT values bracketing that range, NNTpos and NNTneg, become the targets of the study's design. If the trial can demonstrate that a positive biomarker test yields an NNT less than NNTlower, and that a negative biomarker test yields an NNT less than NNTlower, then the biomarker may be useful for patients. A highlight of the package is visualization of a "contra-Bayes" theorem, which produces criteria for retrospective case-controls studies.
