This package performs parametric and non-parametric estimation and simulation for multi-state discrete-time semi-Markov processes. For the parametric estimation, several discrete distributions are considered for the sojourn times: Uniform, Geometric, Poisson, Discrete Weibull and Negative Binomial. The non-parametric estimation concerns the sojourn time distributions, where no assumptions are done on the shape of distributions. Moreover, the estimation can be done on the basis of one or several sample paths, with or without censoring at the beginning or/and at the end of the sample paths. Reliability indicators such as reliability, maintainability, availability, BMP-failure rate, RG-failure rate, mean time to failure and mean time to repair are available as well. The implemented methods are described in Barbu, V.S., Limnios, N. (2008) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-73173-5>, Barbu, V.S., Limnios, N. (2008) <doi:10.1080/10485250701261913> and Trevezas, S., Limnios, N. (2011) <doi:10.1080/10485252.2011.555543>. Estimation and simulation of discrete-time k-th order Markov chains are also considered.

Model stacking is an ensemble technique that involves training a model to combine the outputs of many diverse statistical models, and has been shown to improve predictive performance in a variety of settings. stacks implements a grammar for tidymodels'-aligned model stacking.

Inspired by space-time regressions often performed to assess the expansion of the Neolithic from the Near East to Europe (Pinhasi et al. 2005 <doi:10.1371/journal.pbio.0030410>). Test for significant correlations between the (earliest) radiocarbon dates of archaeological sites and their respective distances from a hypothetical center of origin. Both ordinary least squares (OLS) and reduced major axis (RMA) methods are supported (Russell et al. 2014 <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0087854>). It is also possible to iterate over many sites to identify the most likely origin.

Modeling spatial dependencies in dependent variables, extending traditional spatial regression approaches. It allows for the joint modeling of both the mean and the variance of the dependent variable, incorporating semiparametric effects in both models. Based on generalized additive models (GAM), the package enables the inclusion of non-parametric terms while maintaining the classical theoretical framework of spatial regression. Additionally, it implements the Generalized Spatial Autoregression (GSAR) model, which extends classical methods like logistic Spatial Autoregresive Models (SAR), probit Spatial Autoregresive Models (SAR), and Poisson Spatial Autoregresive Models (SAR), offering greater flexibility in modeling spatial dependencies and significantly improving computational efficiency and the statistical properties of the estimators.

Sparse principal component analysis (SPCA) attempts to find sparse weight vectors (loadings), i.e., a weight vector with only a few active (nonzero) values. This approach provides better interpretability for the principal components in high-dimensional data settings. This is, because the principal components are formed as a linear combination of only a few of the original variables. This package provides efficient routines to compute SPCA. Specifically, a variable projection solver is used to compute the sparse solution. In addition, a fast randomized accelerated SPCA routine and a robust SPCA routine is provided. Robust SPCA allows to capture grossly corrupted entries in the data. The methods are discussed in detail by N. Benjamin Erichson et al. (2018) <arXiv:1804.00341>.

The aim of most plant breeding programmes is simultaneous improvement of several characters. An objective method involving simultaneous selection for several attributes then becomes necessary. It has been recognised that most rapid improvements in the economic value is expected from selection applied simultaneously to all the characters which determine the economic value of a plant, and appropriate assigned weights to each character according to their economic importance, heritability and correlations between characters. So the selection for economic value is a complex matter. If the component characters are combined together into an index in such a way that when selection is applied to the index, as if index is the character to be improved, most rapid improvement of economic value is expected. Such an index was first proposed by Smith (1937 <doi:10.1111/j.1469-1809.1936.tb02143.x>) based on the Fisher's (1936 <doi:10.1111/j.1469-1809.1936.tb02137.x>) "discriminant function" Dabholkar (1999 <https://books.google.co.in/books?id=mlFtumAXQ0oC&lpg=PA4&ots=Xgxp1qLuxS&dq=elements%20of%20biometrical%20genetics&lr&pg=PP1#v=onepage&q&f=false>). In this package selection index is calculated based on the Smith (1937) selection index method.

Bio-Layer Interferometry (BLI) is a technology to determine the binding kinetics between biomolecules. BLI signals are small and noisy when small molecules are investigated as ligands (analytes). We develop this package to process and analyze the BLI data acquired on Octet Red96 from Fortebio more accurately. Sun Q., Li X., et al (2020) <doi:10.1038/s41467-019-14238-3>. In this new version, we organize the BLI experiment data and analysis methods into a S4 class with self-explaining structure.
