Fast functions implemented in C++ via Rcpp to support the NeuroAnatomy Toolbox ('nat') ecosystem. These functions provide large speed-ups for basic manipulation of neuronal skeletons over pure R functions found in the nat package. The expectation is that end users will not use this package directly, but instead the nat package will automatically use routines from this package when it is available to enable large performance gains.

This package provides a collection of statistical tools for objective (non-supervised) applications of the Regional Frequency Analysis methods in hydrology. The package refers to the index-value method and, more precisely, helps the hydrologist to: (1) regionalize the index-value; (2) form homogeneous regions with similar growth curves; (3) fit distribution functions to the empirical regional growth curves. Most of the methods are those described in the Flood Estimation Handbook (Centre for Ecology & Hydrology, 1999, ISBN:9781906698003). Homogeneity tests from Hosking and Wallis (1993) <doi:10.1029/92WR01980> and Viglione et al. (2007) <doi:10.1029/2006WR005095> are available.

Fits a non-linear transformation model ('nltm') for analyzing survival data, see Tsodikov (2003) <doi:10.1111/1467-9868.00414>. The class of nltm includes the following currently supported models: Cox proportional hazard, proportional hazard cure, proportional odds, proportional hazard - proportional hazard cure, proportional hazard - proportional odds cure, Gamma frailty, and proportional hazard - proportional odds.

Addressing crucial research questions often necessitates a small sample size due to factors such as distinctive target populations, rarity of the event under study, time and cost constraints, ethical concerns, or group-level unit of analysis. Many readily available analytic methods, however, do not accommodate small sample sizes, and the choice of the best method can be unclear. The npboottprm package enables the execution of nonparametric bootstrap tests with pooled resampling to help fill this gap. Grounded in the statistical methods for small sample size studies detailed in Dwivedi, Mallawaarachchi, and Alvarado (2017) <doi:10.1002/sim.7263>, the package facilitates a range of statistical tests, encompassing independent t-tests, paired t-tests, and one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) F-tests. The nonparboot() function undertakes essential computations, yielding detailed outputs which include test statistics, effect sizes, confidence intervals, and bootstrap distributions. Further, npboottprm incorporates an interactive shiny web application, nonparboot_app(), offering intuitive, user-friendly data exploration.

This package provides a non-parametric test for multi-observer concordance and differences between concordances in (un)balanced data.

Introduces a novel network-constrained survival analysis framework for variable selection and parameter estimation in penalized survival models with convex penalties. The package extends two classical survival models, the Cox Proportional Hazards (PH) model and the Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) model, by incorporating prior biological knowledge from curated interaction networks (e.g., KEGG) into a double-penalty framework. The first penalty enforces variable selection through a LASSO penalty, while the second preserves gene-gene correlations by incorporating Laplacian-based constraints, ensuring that biologically relevant network structures are maintained. Using censored survival data, the method enables the identification of predictive biomarkers and pathways with potential relevance for target therapies. Model estimation is performed via proximal optimization algorithms combined with cross-validation for reliable tuning. To enhance interpretability, dedicated utility functions are implemented to consolidate results, yielding biologically coherent insights that can support personalized medicine and contribute to improved patient outcomes.

Normative data are often used to estimate the relative position of a raw test score in the population. This package allows for deriving regression-based normative data. It includes functions that enable the fitting of regression models for the mean and residual (or variance) structures, test the model assumptions, derive the normative data in the form of normative tables or automatic scoring sheets, and estimate confidence intervals for the norms. This package accompanies the book Van der Elst, W. (2024). Regression-based normative data for psychological assessment. A hands-on approach using R. Springer Nature.

Stanford CoreNLP annotation client. Stanford CoreNLP <https://stanfordnlp.github.io/CoreNLP/index.html> integrates all NLP tools from the Stanford Natural Language Processing Group, including a part-of-speech (POS) tagger, a named entity recognizer (NER), a parser, and a coreference resolution system, and provides model files for the analysis of English. More information can be found in the README.

This package provides automated methods for generating initial parameter estimates in population pharmacokinetic modeling. The pipeline integrates adaptive single-point methods, naive pooled graphic approaches, noncompartmental analysis methods, and parameter sweeping across pharmacokinetic models. It estimates residual unexplained variability using either data-driven or fixed-fraction approaches and assigns pragmatic initial values for inter-individual variability. These strategies are designed to improve model robustness and convergence in nlmixr2 workflows.

Conducts Bayesian Hypothesis tests of a point null hypothesis against a two-sided alternative using Non-local Alternative Prior (NAP) for one- and two-sample z- and t-tests (Pramanik and Johnson, 2022). Under the alternative, the NAP is assumed on the standardized effects size in one-sample tests and on their differences in two-sample tests. The package considers two types of NAP densities: (1) the normal moment prior, and (2) the composite alternative. In fixed design tests, the functions calculate the Bayes factors and the expected weight of evidence for varied effect size and sample size. The package also provides a sequential testing framework using the Sequential Bayes Factor (SBF) design. The functions calculate the operating characteristics (OC) and the average sample number (ASN), and also conducts sequential tests for a sequentially observed data.
