Analysis tools to investigate changes in intercellular communication from scRNA-seq data. Using a Seurat object as input, the package infers which cell-cell interactions are present in the dataset and how these interactions change between two conditions of interest (e.g. young vs old). It relies on an internal database of ligand-receptor interactions (available for human, mouse and rat) that have been gathered from several published studies. Detection and differential analyses rely on permutation tests. The package also contains several tools to perform over-representation analysis and visualize the results. See Lagger, C. et al. (2023) <doi:10.1038/s43587-023-00514-x> for a full description of the methodology.

Enables the creation of Chain Event Graphs over spatial areas, with an optional Shiny user interface. Allows users to fully customise both the structure and underlying model of the Chain Event Graph, offering a high degree of flexibility for tailored analyses.

Use of Knock Out and Round Robin Techniques in preparing tournament fixtures as discussed in the Book Health and Physical Education by Dr. V K Sharma'(2018,ISBN:978-93-5272-134-4).

Computes the effective range of a smoothing matrix, which is a measure of the distance to which smoothing occurs. This is motivated by the application of spatial splines for adjusting for unmeasured spatial confounding in regression models, but the calculation of effective range can be applied to smoothing matrices in other contexts. For algorithmic details, see Rainey and Keller (2024) "spconfShiny: an R Shiny application..." <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0311440> and Keller and Szpiro (2020) "Selecting a Scale for Spatial Confounding Adjustment" <doi:10.1111/rssa.12556>.

This sparklyr extension makes Flint time series library functionalities (<https://github.com/twosigma/flint>) easily accessible through R.

This package provides some basic routines for simulating a clinical trial. The primary intent is to provide some tools to generate trial simulations for trials with time to event outcomes. Piecewise exponential failure rates and piecewise constant enrollment rates are the underlying mechanism used to simulate a broad range of scenarios such as those presented in Lin et al. (2020) <doi:10.1080/19466315.2019.1697738>. However, the basic generation of data is done using pipes to allow maximum flexibility for users to meet different needs.

The SC-SR Algorithm is used to calculate fully non-parametric and self-consistent estimators of the cause-specific failure probabilities in the presence of interval-censoring and possible making of the failure cause in a competing risks environment. In the version 2.0 the function creating the probability matrix from double-censored data is added.

This package implements a generative model that uses a spike-and-slab like prior distribution obtained by multiplying a deterministic binary vector. Such a model allows an EM algorithm, optimizing a type-II log-likelihood.

An algorithm for identifying high-resolution driver elements for datasets from a high-definition reporter assay library. Xinchen Wang, Liang He, Sarah Goggin, Alham Saadat, Li Wang, Melina Claussnitzer, Manolis Kellis (2017) <doi:10.1101/193136>.

This package provides methods to detect structural changes in time series or random fields (spatial data). Focus is on the detection of abrupt changes or trends in independent data, but the package also provides a function to de-correlate data with dependence. The functions are based on the test suggested in Schmidt (2024) <DOI:10.3150/23-BEJ1686> and the work in Görz and Fried (2025) <DOI:10.48550/arXiv.2512.11599>.

Processes amino acid alignments produced by the IPD-IMGT/HLA (Immuno Polymorphism-ImMunoGeneTics/Human Leukocyte Antigen) Database to identify user-defined amino acid residue motifs shared across HLA alleles, HLA alleles, or HLA haplotypes, and calculates frequencies based on HLA allele frequency data. SSHAARP (Searching Shared HLA Amino Acid Residue Prevalence) uses Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) software and the GMT R package to generate global frequency heat maps that illustrate the distribution of each user-defined map around the globe. SSHAARP analyzes the allele frequency data described by Solberg et al. (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.humimm.2008.05.001>, a global set of 497 population samples from 185 published datasets, representing 66,800 individuals total. Users may also specify their own datasets, but file conventions must follow the prebundled Solberg dataset, or the mock haplotype dataset.

This package provides ggplot2 graphics for analysing time series data. It aims to fit into the tidyverse and grammar of graphics framework for handling temporal data.

Given bincount data from single-cell copy number profiling (segmented or unsegmented), estimates ploidy, and uses the ploidy estimate to scale the data to absolute copy numbers. Uses the modular quantogram proposed by Kendall (1986) <doi:10.1002/0471667196.ess2129.pub2>, modified by weighting segments according to confidence, and quantifying confidence in the estimate using a theoretical quantogram. Includes optional fused-lasso segmentation with the algorithm in Johnson (2013) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2012.681238>, using the implementation from glmgen by Arnold, Sadhanala, and Tibshirani.

Generates a random quotation from a database of quotes on topics in statistics, data visualization and science. Other functions allow searching the quotes database by key term tags, or authors or creating a word cloud. The output is designed to be suitable for use at the console, in Rmarkdown and LaTeX.

This package provides a statistical method for reducing the number of covariates in an analysis by evaluating Variable Importance Measures (VIMPs) derived from the Random Forest algorithm. It performs statistical tests on the VIMPs and outputs whether the covariate is significant along with the p-values.

This package provides a rudimentary sequencer to define, manipulate and mix sound samples. The underlying motivation is to sonify data, as demonstrated in the blog <https://globxblog.github.io/>, the presentation by Renard and Le Bescond (2022, <https://hal.science/hal-03710340v1>) or the poster by Renard et al. (2023, <https://hal.inrae.fr/hal-04388845v1>).

This package performs parametric synthesis of sounds with harmonic and noise components such as animal vocalizations or human voice. Also offers tools for audio manipulation and acoustic analysis, including pitch tracking, spectral analysis, audio segmentation, pitch and formant shifting, etc. Includes four interactive web apps for synthesizing and annotating audio, manually correcting pitch contours, and measuring formant frequencies.

This package provides a fast implementation with additional experimental features for testing, monitoring and dating structural changes in (linear) regression models. strucchangeRcpp features tests/methods from the generalized fluctuation test framework as well as from the F test (Chow test) framework. This includes methods to fit, plot and test fluctuation processes (e.g. cumulative/moving sum, recursive/moving estimates) and F statistics, respectively. These methods are described in Zeileis et al. (2002) <doi:10.18637/jss.v007.i02>. Finally, the breakpoints in regression models with structural changes can be estimated together with confidence intervals, and their magnitude as well as the model fit can be evaluated using a variety of statistical measures.

This is a core implementation of SAS procedures for linear models - GLM, REG, ANOVA, TTEST, FREQ, and UNIVARIATE. Some R packages provide type II and type III SS. However, the results of nested and complex designs are often different from those of SAS. Different results does not necessarily mean incorrectness. However, many wants the same results to SAS. This package aims to achieve that. Reference: Littell RC, Stroup WW, Freund RJ (2002, ISBN:0-471-22174-0).

Implementation for sparse logistic functional principal component analysis (SLFPCA). SLFPCA is specifically developed for functional binary data, and the estimated eigenfunction can be strictly zero on some sub-intervals, which is helpful for interpretation. The crucial function of this package is SLFPCA().
