Models for non-linear time series analysis and causality detection. The main functionalities of this package consist of an implementation of the classical causality test (C.W.J.Granger 1980) <doi:10.1016/0165-1889(80)90069-X>, and a non-linear version of it based on feed-forward neural networks. This package contains also an implementation of the Transfer Entropy <doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.85.461>, and the continuous Transfer Entropy using an approximation based on the k-nearest neighbors <doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.69.066138>. There are also some other useful tools, like the VARNN (Vector Auto-Regressive Neural Network) prediction model, the Augmented test of stationarity, and the discrete and continuous entropy and mutual information.

In this implementation of the Naive Bayes classifier following class conditional distributions are available: Bernoulli', Categorical', Gaussian', Poisson', Multinomial and non-parametric representation of the class conditional density estimated via Kernel Density Estimation. Implemented classifiers handle missing data and can take advantage of sparse data.

This package provides tools for working with nonlinear least squares problems. For the estimation of models reliable and robust tools than nls(), where the the Gauss-Newton method frequently stops with singular gradient messages. This is accomplished by using, where possible, analytic derivatives to compute the matrix of derivatives and a stabilization of the solution of the estimation equations. Tools for approximate or externally supplied derivative matrices are included. Bounds and masks on parameters are handled properly.

Package takes frequencies of mutations as reported by high throughput sequencing data from cancer and fits a theoretical neutral model of tumour evolution. Package outputs summary statistics and contains code for plotting the data and model fits. See Williams et al 2016 <doi:10.1038/ng.3489> and Williams et al 2017 <doi:10.1101/096305> for further details of the method.

This package contains the functions for testing the spatial patterns (of segregation, spatial symmetry, association, disease clustering, species correspondence, and reflexivity) based on nearest neighbor relations, especially using contingency tables such as nearest neighbor contingency tables (Ceyhan (2010) <doi:10.1007/s10651-008-0104-x> and Ceyhan (2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jkss.2016.10.002> and references therein), nearest neighbor symmetry contingency tables (Ceyhan (2014) <doi:10.1155/2014/698296>), species correspondence contingency tables and reflexivity contingency tables (Ceyhan (2018) <doi:10.2436/20.8080.02.72> for two (or higher) dimensional data. The package also contains functions for generating patterns of segregation, association, uniformity in a multi-class setting (Ceyhan (2014) <doi:10.1007/s00477-013-0824-9>), and various non-random labeling patterns for disease clustering in two dimensional cases (Ceyhan (2014) <doi:10.1002/sim.6053>), and for visualization of all these patterns for the two dimensional data. The tests are usually (asymptotic) normal z-tests or chi-square tests.

This package provides a collection of dynamic network data sets from various sources and multiple authors represented as networkDynamic'-formatted objects.

Multidimensional nonparametric spatial (spatio-temporal) geostatistics. S3 classes and methods for multidimensional: linear binning, local polynomial kernel regression (spatial trend estimation), density and variogram estimation. Nonparametric methods for simultaneous inference on both spatial trend and variogram functions (for spatial processes). Nonparametric residual kriging (spatial prediction). For details on these methods see, for example, Fernandez-Casal and Francisco-Fernandez (2014) <doi:10.1007/s00477-013-0817-8> or Castillo-Paez et al. (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2019.01.017>.

This package provides quality control (QC), normalization, and batch effect correction operations for NanoString nCounter data, Talhouk et al. (2016) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0153844>. Various metrics are used to determine which samples passed or failed QC. Gene expression should first be normalized to housekeeping genes, before a reference-based approach is used to adjust for batch effects. Raw NanoString data can be imported in the form of Reporter Code Count (RCC) files.

Segmentation of short text sequences - like hashtags - into the separated words sequence, done with the use of dictionary, which may be built on custom corpus of texts. Unigram dictionary is used to find most probable sequence, and n-grams approach is used to determine possible segmentation given the text corpus.

Implement and enhance the performance of spatial fuzzy clustering using Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering with various optimization algorithms, mainly from Xin She Yang (2014) <ISBN:9780124167438> with book entitled Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms. The optimization algorithm is useful to tackle the disadvantages of clustering inconsistency when using the traditional approach. The distance measurements option is also provided in order to increase the quality of clustering results. The Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering with nature inspired optimisation algorithm was firstly developed by Arie Wahyu Wijayanto and Ayu Purwarianti (2014) <doi:10.1109/CITSM.2014.7042178> using Artificial Bee Colony algorithm.

The network structural equation modeling conducts a network statistical analysis on a data frame of coincident observations of multiple continuous variables [1]. It builds a pathway model by exploring a pool of domain knowledge guided candidate statistical relationships between each of the variable pairs, selecting the best fit on the basis of a specific criteria such as adjusted r-squared value. This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation Award EEC-2052776 and EEC-2052662 for the MDS-Rely IUCRC Center, under the NSF Solicitation: NSF 20-570 Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers Program [1] Bruckman, Laura S., Nicholas R.
