Package to select best model among several linear and nonlinear models. The main function uses the gnls() function from the nlme package to fit the data to nine regression models, named: "linear", "quadratic", "cubic", "logistic", "exponential", "power", "monod", "haldane", "logit".

An implementation of the Nonparametric Predictive Inference approach in R. It provides tools for quantifying uncertainty via lower and upper probabilities. It includes useful functions for pairwise and multiple comparisons: comparing two groups with and without terminated tails, selecting the best group, selecting the subset of best groups, selecting the subset including the best group.

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.

Waiting list management using queuing theory to analyse, predict and manage queues, based on the approach described in Fong et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.08.23.22279117>. Aimed at UK National Health Service (NHS) applications, waiting list summary statistics, target-value calculations, waiting list simulation, and scheduling functions are included.

Do algebraic operations on neural networks. We seek here to implement in R, operations on neural networks and their resulting approximations. Our operations derive their descriptions mainly from Rafi S., Padgett, J.L., and Nakarmi, U. (2024), "Towards an Algebraic Framework For Approximating Functions Using Neural Network Polynomials", <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2402.01058>, Grohs P., Hornung, F., Jentzen, A. et al. (2023), "Space-time error estimates for deep neural network approximations for differential equations", <doi:10.1007/s10444-022-09970-2>, Jentzen A., Kuckuck B., von Wurstemberger, P. (2023), "Mathematical Introduction to Deep Learning Methods, Implementations, and Theory" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2310.20360>. Our implementation is meant mainly as a pedagogical tool, and proof of concept. Faster implementations with deeper vectorizations may be made in future versions.

Stacking arrays according to dimension names, subset-aware splitting and mapping of functions, intersecting along arbitrary dimensions, converting to and from data.frames, and many other helper functions.

This package implements the procedure from G. J. Ross (2021) - "Nonparametric Detection of Multiple Location-Scale Change Points via Wild Binary Segmentation" <arxiv:2107.01742>. This uses a version of Wild Binary Segmentation to detect multiple location-scale (i.e. mean and/or variance) change points in a sequence of univariate observations, with a strict control on the probability of incorrectly detecting a change point in a sequence which does not contain any.

Implementation of network integration approaches comprising unweighted and weighted integration methods. Unweighted integration is performed considering the average, per-edge average, maximum and minimum of networks edges. Weighted integration takes into account a weight for each network during the fusion process, where the weights express the predictiveness strength of each network considering a specific predictive task. Weights can be learned using a machine learning algorithm able to associate the weights to the assessment of the accuracy of the learning algorithm trained on the network itself. The implemented methods can be applied to effectively integrate different biological networks modelling a wide range of problems in bioinformatics (e.g. disease gene prioritization, protein function prediction, drug repurposing, clinical outcome prediction).

This package performs nonparametric tests for equality of location against ordered alternatives.

Computes various geospatial indices of socioeconomic deprivation and disparity in the United States. Some indices are considered "spatial" because they consider the values of neighboring (i.e., adjacent) census geographies in their computation, while other indices are "aspatial" because they only consider the value within each census geography. Two types of aspatial neighborhood deprivation indices (NDI) are available: including: (1) based on Messer et al. (2006) <doi:10.1007/s11524-006-9094-x> and (2) based on Andrews et al. (2020) <doi:10.1080/17445647.2020.1750066> and Slotman et al. (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.dib.2022.108002> who use variables chosen by Roux and Mair (2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1749-6632.2009.05333.x>. Both are a decomposition of multiple demographic characteristics from the U.S. Census Bureau American Community Survey 5-year estimates (ACS-5; 2006-2010 onward). Using data from the ACS-5 (2005-2009 onward), the package can also compute indices of racial or ethnic residential segregation, including but limited to those discussed in Massey & Denton (1988) <doi:10.1093/sf/67.2.281>, and additional indices of socioeconomic disparity.

This package provides tools for the structured processing of PET neuroimaging data in preparation for the estimation of Simultaneous Confidence Corridors (SCCs) for one-group, two-group, or single-patient vs group comparisons. The package facilitates PET image loading, data restructuring, integration into a Functional Data Analysis framework, contour extraction, identification of significant results, and performance evaluation. It bridges established packages (e.g., oro.nifti') with novel statistical methodologies (e.g., ImageSCC') and enables reproducible analysis pipelines, including comparison with Statistical Parametric Mapping ('SPM').

This package provides a near drop-in replacement for base::Sys.sleep() that allows more types of input to produce delays in the execution of code and can silence/prevent typical sources of error.

(2015) <doi:10.1002/sim.6728>. Sampling of the power parameter is achieved via either independence Metropolis-Hastings or random walk Metropolis-Hastings based on transformation.

This package provides a collection of tools that allow users to perform critical steps in the process of assessing ecological niche evolution over phylogenies, with uncertainty incorporated explicitly in reconstructions. The method proposed here for ancestral reconstruction of ecological niches characterizes species niches using a bin-based approach that incorporates uncertainty in estimations. Compared to other existing methods, the approaches presented here reduce risk of overestimation of amounts and rates of ecological niche evolution. The main analyses include: initial exploration of environmental data in occurrence records and accessible areas, preparation of data for phylogenetic analyses, executing comparative phylogenetic analyses of ecological niches, and plotting for interpretations. Details on the theoretical background and methods used can be found in: Owens et al. (2020) <doi:10.1002/ece3.6359>, Peterson et al.

Collection of functions for fast manipulation, handling, and analysis of large-scale networks based on family and social data. Functions are utility functions used to manipulate data in three "formats": sparse adjacency matrices, pedigree trio family data, and pedigree family data. When possible, the functions should be able to handle millions of data points quickly for use in combination with data from large public national registers and databases. Kenneth Lange (2003, ISBN:978-8181281135).

This package provides functions for downloading, calibrating, and analyzing atmospheric isotope data bundled into the eddy covariance data products of the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) <https://www.neonscience.org>. Calibration tools are provided for carbon and water isotope products. Carbon isotope calibration details are found in Fiorella et al. (2021) <doi:10.1029/2020JG005862>, and the readme file at <https://github.com/lanl/NEONiso>. Tools for calibrating water isotope products have been added as of 0.6.0, but have known deficiencies and should be considered experimental and unsupported.
