Finds the largest possible regression model that will still converge for various types of regression analyses (including mixed models and generalized additive models) and then optionally performs stepwise elimination similar to the forward and backward effect-selection methods in SAS, based on the change in log-likelihood or its significance, Akaike's Information Criterion, the Bayesian Information Criterion, the explained deviance, or the F-test of the change in R².

This package provides functions to prepare tidy objects from estimated models via BVAR (see Kuschnig & Vashold, 2019 <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.25541.60643>) and visualisation thereof. Bridges the gap between estimating models with BVAR and plotting the results in a more sophisticated way with ggplot2 as well as passing them on in a tidy format.

Prevents and detects information leakage in biomedical machine learning. Provides leakage-resistant split policies (subject-grouped, batch-blocked, study leave-out, time-ordered), guarded preprocessing (train-only imputation, normalization, filtering, feature selection), cross-validated fitting with common learners, permutation-gap auditing, batch and fold association tests, and duplicate detection.

Laplace approximations and penalized B-splines are combined for fast Bayesian inference in latent Gaussian models. The routines can be used to fit survival models, especially proportional hazards and promotion time cure models (Gressani, O. and Lambert, P. (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2018.02.007>). The Laplace-P-spline methodology can also be implemented for inference in (generalized) additive models (Gressani, O. and Lambert, P. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2020.107088>). See the associated website for more information and examples.

Producing probabilistic projections of net migration rate for all countries of the world or for subnational units using a Bayesian hierarchical model by Azose an Raftery (2015) <doi:10.1007/s13524-015-0415-0>.

Calculates a range of UK freshwater invertebrate biotic indices including BMWP, Whalley, WHPT, Habitat-specific BMWP, AWIC, LIFE and PSI.

We implemented a Bayesian-statistics approach for subtraction of incoherent scattering from neutron total-scattering data. In this approach, the estimated background signal associated with incoherent scattering maximizes the posterior probability, which combines the likelihood of this signal in reciprocal and real spaces with the prior that favors smooth lines. The description of the corresponding approach could be found at Gagin and Levin (2014) <DOI:10.1107/S1600576714023796>.

Power calculations are a critical component of any research study to determine the minimum sample size necessary to detect differences between multiple groups. Researchers often work with data taking the form of proportions that can be modeled with a beta distribution. Here we present an R package, BetaPASS', that perform power and sample size calculations for data following a beta distribution with comparative nonparametric output. This package allows flexibility with multiple options for link functions to fit the data and graphing functionality for visual comparisons.

This package provides tools and code snippets for summarizing nested data, adverse events and REDCap study information.

Gail MH, Brinton LA, et al (1989) <doi:10.1093/jnci/81.24.1879>. Marthew PB, Gail MH, et al (2016) <doi:10.1093/jnci/djw215>.

Estimates Boltzmannâ Lotkaâ Volterra (BLV) interaction model efficiently. Enables programmatic and graphical exploration of the solution space of BLV models when parameters are varied. See Wilson, A. (2008) <dx.doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2007.1288>.

Nowcasting right-truncated epidemiological data is critical for timely public health decision-making, as reporting delays can create misleading impressions of declining trends in recent data. This package provides nowcasting methods based on using empirical delay distributions and uncertainty from past performance. It is also designed to be used as a baseline method for developers of new nowcasting methods. For more details on the performance of the method(s) in this package applied to case studies of COVID-19 and norovirus, see our recent paper at <https://wellcomeopenresearch.org/articles/10-614>. The package supports standard data frame inputs with reference date, report date, and count columns, as well as the direct use of reporting triangles, and is compatible with epinowcast objects. Alongside an opinionated default workflow, it has a low-level pipe-friendly modular interface, allowing context-specific workflows. It can accommodate a wide spectrum of reporting schedules, including mixed patterns of reference and reporting (daily-weekly, weekly-daily). It also supports sharing delay distributions and uncertainty estimates between strata, as well as custom uncertainty models and delay estimation methods.

Allows access to data from the Brazilian Public Security Information System (SINESP) by state and municipality. It should be emphasized that the package only extracts the data and facilitates its manipulation in R. Therefore, its sole purpose is to support empirical research. All data credits belong to SINESP, an integrated information platform developed and maintained by the National Secretariat of Public Security (SENASP) of the Ministry of Justice and Public Security. <https://www.gov.br/mj/pt-br/assuntos/sua-seguranca/seguranca-publica/sinesp-1>.

Generates confidence intervals for standardized regression coefficients using delta method standard errors for models fitted by lm() as described in Yuan and Chan (2011) <doi:10.1007/s11336-011-9224-6> and Jones and Waller (2015) <doi:10.1007/s11336-013-9380-y>. The package can also be used to generate confidence intervals for differences of standardized regression coefficients and as a general approach to performing the delta method. A description of the package and code examples are presented in Pesigan, Sun, and Cheung (2023) <doi:10.1080/00273171.2023.2201277>.
