Stochastic block model used for dynamic graphs represented by Poisson processes. To model recurrent interaction events in continuous time, an extension of the stochastic block model is proposed where every individual belongs to a latent group and interactions between two individuals follow a conditional inhomogeneous Poisson process with intensity driven by the individualsâ latent groups. The model is shown to be identifiable and its estimation is based on a semiparametric variational expectation-maximization algorithm. Two versions of the method are developed, using either a nonparametric histogram approach (with an adaptive choice of the partition size) or kernel intensity estimators. The number of latent groups can be selected by an integrated classification likelihood criterion. Y. Baraud and L. Birgé (2009). <doi:10.1007/s00440-007-0126-6>. C. Biernacki, G. Celeux and G.

Global hypothesis tests combine information across multiple endpoints to test a single hypothesis. The prediction test is a recently proposed global hypothesis test with good performance for small sample sizes and many endpoints of interest. The test is also flexible in the types and combinations of expected results across the individual endpoints. This package provides functions for data processing and calculation of the prediction test.

This package provides functions for testing phylogenetic niche conservatism, a key prerequisite in community assembly studies. The package integrates global functional trait data across major taxonomic groups and implements methods such as Pagel's Lambda and Blomberg's K to quantify phylogenetic signals in ecological communities. Methods are described in Münkemüller et al. (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.2041-210X.2012.00196.x>.

Implementations of Power Fuzzy Clustering (PFC) and Power Fuzzy Cluster-wise Regression (PFCR) for multivariate data. The package supports Minkowski distances, with the L1 case solved via iteratively re-weighted least squares and the case p > 1 solved via coordinate-wise root finding, as well as an adaptive, regularised Mahalanobis distance with per-cluster covariance matrices. Both plain fuzzy clustering and cluster-wise linear regression are provided. The corresponding paper can be found at Nguyen P.T., Tortora C., and Punzo A. (2026) <doi:10.1109/TFUZZ.2026.3683998>.

Estimation and inference for coefficients of linear EIV models with symmetric measurement errors. The measurement errors can be homoscedastic or heteroscedastic, for the latter, replication for at least some observations needs to be available. The estimation method and asymptotic inference are based on a generalised method of moments framework, where the estimating equations are formed from (1) minimising the distance between the empirical phase function (normalised characteristic function) of the response and that of the linear combination of all the covariates at the estimates, and (2) minimising a corrected least-square discrepancy function. Specifically, for a linear EIV model with p error-prone and q error-free covariates, if replicates are available, the GMM approach is based on a 2(p+q) estimating equations if some replicates are available and based on p+2q estimating equations if no replicate is available. The details of the method are described in Nghiem and Potgieter (2020) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asaa025> and Nghiem and Potgieter (2025) <doi:10.5705/ss.202022.0331>.

Hybrid control design is a way to borrow information from external controls to augment concurrent controls in a randomized controlled trial and is expected to overcome the feasibility issue when adequate randomized controlled trials cannot be conducted. A major challenge in the hybrid control design is its inability to eliminate a prior-data conflict caused by systematic imbalances in measured or unmeasured confounding factors between patients in the concurrent treatment/control group and external controls. To prevent the prior-data conflict, a combined use of propensity score matching and Bayesian commensurate prior has been proposed in the context of hybrid control design. The propensity score matching is first performed to guarantee the balance in baseline characteristics, and then the Bayesian commensurate prior is constructed while discounting the information based on the similarity in outcomes between the concurrent and external controls. psBayesborrow is a package to implement the propensity score matching and the Bayesian analysis with commensurate prior, as well as to conduct a simulation study to assess operating characteristics of the hybrid control design, where users can choose design parameters in flexible and straightforward ways depending on their own application.

This package provides functions that facilitate the elaboration of population pyramids.

Quantile regression with fixed effects is a general model for longitudinal data. Here we proposed to solve it by several methods. The estimation methods include three loss functions as check, asymmetric least square and asymmetric Huber functions; and three structures as simple regression, fixed effects and fixed effects with penalized intercepts by LASSO.

This package provides a function for estimating the transition probabilities in an illness-death model. The transition probabilities can be estimated from the unsmoothed landmark estimators developed by de Una-Alvarez and Meira-Machado (2015) <doi:10.1111/biom.12288>. Presmoothed estimates can also be obtained through the use of a parametric family of binary regression curves, such as logit, probit or cauchit. The additive logistic regression model and nonparametric regression are also alternatives which have been implemented. The idea behind the presmoothed landmark estimators is to use the presmoothing techniques developed by Cao et al. (2005) <doi:10.1007/s00180-007-0076-6> in the landmark estimation of the transition probabilities.

This package provides a novel pseudo-value regression approach for the differential co-expression network analysis in expression data, which can incorporate additional clinical variables in the model. This is a direct regression modeling for the differential network analysis, and it is therefore computationally amenable for the most users.

Computes the minimum sample size required for the development of a new multivariable prediction model using the criteria proposed by Riley et al. (2018) <doi: 10.1002/sim.7992>. pmsampsize can be used to calculate the minimum sample size for the development of models with continuous, binary or survival (time-to-event) outcomes. Riley et al. (2018) <doi: 10.1002/sim.7992> lay out a series of criteria the sample size should meet. These aim to minimise the overfitting and to ensure precise estimation of key parameters in the prediction model.
