Dose-response modeling for negative-binomial distributed data with a variety of dose-response models. Covariate adjustment and Bayesian model averaging is supported. Functions are provided to easily obtain inference on the dose-response relationship and plot the dose-response curve.

Download data from the time-series databases of the Bundesbank, the German central bank. See the overview at the Bundesbank website (<https://www.bundesbank.de/en/statistics/time-series-databases>) for available series. The package provides only a single function, getSeries(), which supports both traditional and real-time datasets; it will also download meta data if available. Downloaded data can automatically be arranged in various formats, such as data frames or zoo series. The data may optionally be cached, so as to avoid repeated downloads of the same series.

Set of functions to calculate Benthic Biotic Indices from composition data, obtained whether from morphotaxonomic inventories or sequencing data. Based on reference ecological weights publicly available for a set of commonly used marine biotic indices, such as AMBI (A Marine Biotic Index, Borja et al., 2000) <doi:10.1016/S0025-326X(00)00061-8> NSI (Norwegian Sensitivity Index) and ISI (Indicator Species Index) (Rygg 2013, <ISBN:978-82-577-6210-0>). It provides the ecological quality status of the samples based on each BBI as well as the normalized Ecological Quality Ratio.

Package for Bayesian Variable Selection and Model Averaging in linear models and generalized linear models using stochastic or deterministic sampling without replacement from posterior distributions. Prior distributions on coefficients are from Zellner's g-prior or mixtures of g-priors corresponding to the Zellner-Siow Cauchy Priors or the mixture of g-priors from Liang et al (2008) <DOI:10.1198/016214507000001337> for linear models or mixtures of g-priors from Li and Clyde (2019) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2018.1469992> in generalized linear models. Other model selection criteria include AIC, BIC and Empirical Bayes estimates of g. Sampling probabilities may be updated based on the sampled models using sampling w/out replacement or an efficient MCMC algorithm which samples models using a tree structure of the model space as an efficient hash table. See Clyde, Ghosh and Littman (2010) <DOI:10.1198/jcgs.2010.09049> for details on the sampling algorithms. Uniform priors over all models or beta-binomial prior distributions on model size are allowed, and for large p truncated priors on the model space may be used to enforce sampling models that are full rank. The user may force variables to always be included in addition to imposing constraints that higher order interactions are included only if their parents are included in the model.

This package provides bias-corrected estimates for the regression coefficients of a marginal model estimated with generalized estimating equations. Details about the bias formula used are in Lunardon, N., Scharfstein, D. (2017) <doi:10.1002/sim.7366>.

Verification of continually updating time series data where we expect new values, but want to ensure previous data remains unchanged. Data previously recorded could change for a number of reasons, such as discovery of an error in model code, a change in methodology or instrument recalibration. Monitoring data sources for these changes is not always possible. Other unnoticed changes could include a jump in time or measurement frequency, due to instrument failure or software updates. Functionality is provided that can be used to check and flag changes to previous data to prevent changes going unnoticed, as well as unexpected jumps in time.

Bayesian Mixture Survival Models using Additive Mixture-of-Weibull Hazards, with Lasso Shrinkage and Stratification. As a Bayesian dynamic survival model, it relaxes the proportional-hazard assumption. Lasso shrinkage controls overfitting, given the increase in the number of free parameters in the model due to presence of two Weibull components in the hazard function.

The R-package bayespm implements Bayesian Statistical Process Control and Monitoring (SPC/M) methodology. These methods utilize available prior information and/or historical data, providing efficient online quality monitoring of a process, in terms of identifying moderate/large transient shifts (i.e., outliers) or persistent shifts of medium/small size in the process. These self-starting, sequentially updated tools can also run under complete absence of any prior information. The Predictive Control Charts (PCC) are introduced for the quality monitoring of data from any discrete or continuous distribution that is a member of the regular exponential family. The Predictive Ratio CUSUMs (PRC) are introduced for the Binomial, Poisson and Normal data (a later version of the library will cover all the remaining distributions from the regular exponential family). The PCC targets transient process shifts of typically large size (a.k.a. outliers), while PRC is focused in detecting persistent (structural) shifts that might be of medium or even small size. Apart from monitoring, both PCC and PRC provide the sequentially updated posterior inference for the monitored parameter. Bourazas K., Kiagias D. and Tsiamyrtzis P.

This project aims to enable the method of Path Analysis to infer causalities from data. For this we propose a hybrid approach, which uses Bayesian network structure learning algorithms from data to create the input file for creation of a PA model. The process is performed in a semi-automatic way by our intermediate algorithm, allowing novice researchers to create and evaluate their own PA models from a data set.

Unified and user-friendly framework for using new distributional representations of biosensors data in different statistical modeling tasks: regression models, hypothesis testing, cluster analysis, visualization, and descriptive analysis. Distributional representations are a functional extension of compositional time-range metrics and we have used them successfully so far in modeling glucose profiles and accelerometer data. However, these functional representations can be used to represent any biosensor data such as ECG or medical imaging such as fMRI. Matabuena M, Petersen A, Vidal JC, Gude F.

The Biomarker Optimal Segmentation System R package, bossR', is designed for precision medicine, helping to identify individual traits using biomarkers. It focuses on determining the most effective cutoff value for a continuous biomarker, which is crucial for categorizing patients into two groups with distinctly different clinical outcomes. The package simultaneously finds the optimal cutoff from given candidate values and tests its significance. Simulation studies demonstrate that bossR offers statistical power and false positive control non-inferior to the permutation approach (considered the gold standard in this field), while being hundreds of times faster.

This package performs inference for Bayesian conditional logistic regression with informative priors built from the concordant pair data. We include many options to build the priors. And we include many options during the inference step for estimation, testing and confidence set creation.
