Analysis of spatial relationships between cell types in spatial transcriptomics data. Spatial proximity is a critical factor in cell-cell communication. The package calculates nearest neighbor distances between specified cell types and provides visualization tools to explore spatial patterns. Applications include studying cell-cell interactions, immune microenvironment characterization, and spatial organization of tissues.

This package provides methods for inference using stacked multiple imputations augmented with weights. The vignette provides example R code for implementation in general multiple imputation settings.

This package provides methods to fit robust alternatives to commonly used models used in Small Area Estimation. The methods here used are based on best linear unbiased predictions and linear mixed models. At this time available models include area level models incorporating spatial and temporal correlation in the random effects.

For a detailed information, see (Ishwaran H, Kogalur UB, Blackstone EH and Lauer MS (2008) <doi:10.1214/08-AOAS169>) , (Moradian H, Larocque D and Bellavance F (2017) <doi:10.1007/s10985-016-9372-1>), (Hanpu Zhou, Hong Wang, Sizheng Wang and Yi Zou (2023) <doi:10.32614/rj-2023-009>) for different evaluation metrics.

This package performs automatic creation of short forms of scales with an ant colony optimization algorithm and a Tabu search. As implemented in the package, the ant colony algorithm randomly selects items to build a model of a specified length, then updates the probability of item selection according to the fit of the best model within each set of searches. The algorithm continues until the same items are selected by multiple ants a given number of times in a row. On the other hand, the Tabu search changes one parameter at a time to be either free, constrained, or fixed while keeping track of the changes made and putting changes that result in worse fit in a "tabu" list so that the algorithm does not revisit them for some number of searches. See Leite, Huang, & Marcoulides (2008) <doi:10.1080/00273170802285743> for an applied example of the ant colony algorithm, and Marcoulides & Falk (2018) <doi:10.1080/10705511.2017.1409074> for an applied example of the Tabu search.

Implementation of the structural model for variances in order to detect differentially expressed genes from gene expression data.

This package performs the permutation test using difference in the restricted mean survival time (RMST) between groups as a summary measure of the survival time distribution. When the sample size is less than 50 per group, it has been shown that there is non-negligible inflation of the type I error rate in the commonly used asymptotic test for the RMST comparison. Generally, permutation tests can be useful in such a situation. However, when we apply the permutation test for the RMST comparison, particularly in small sample situations, there are some cases where the survival function in either group cannot be defined due to censoring in the permutation process. Horiguchi and Uno (2020) <doi:10.1002/sim.8565> have examined six workable solutions to handle this numerical issue. It performs permutation tests with implementation of the six methods outlined in the paper when the numerical issue arises during the permutation process. The result of the asymptotic test is also provided for a reference.

This package implements the ST-DBSCAN (spatio-temporal density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise) clustering algorithm for detecting spatially and temporally dense regions in point data, with a fast C++ backend via Rcpp'. Birant and Kut (2007) <doi:10.1016/j.datak.2006.01.013>.

This package provides functions to calculate some point estimators and estimate their variance under unequal probability sampling without replacement. Single and two-stage sampling designs are considered. Some approximations for the second-order inclusion probabilities (joint inclusion probabilities) are available (sample and population based). A variety of Jackknife variance estimators are implemented. Almost every function is written in C (compiled) code for faster results. The functions incorporate some performance improvements for faster results with large datasets.

This package provides a collection of various techniques correcting statistical models for sample selection bias is provided. In particular, the resampling-based methods "stochastic inverse-probability oversampling" and "parametric inverse-probability bagging" are placed at the disposal which generate synthetic observations for correcting classifiers for biased samples resulting from stratified random sampling. For further information, see the article Krautenbacher, Theis, and Fuchs (2017) <doi:10.1155/2017/7847531>. The methods may be used for further purposes where weighting and generation of new observations is needed.

Similarity regression, evaluating the probability of association between sets of ontological terms and binary response vector. A no-association model is compared with one in which the log odds of a true response is linked to the semantic similarity between terms and a latent characteristic ontological profile - Phenotype Similarity Regression for Identifying the Genetic Determinants of Rare Diseases', Greene et al 2016 <doi:10.1016/j.ajhg.2016.01.008>.

Launch an application by a simple click without opening R or RStudio. The package has 3 functions of which only one is essential in its use, `shiny.exe()`. It generates a script in the open shiny project then create a shortcut in the same folder that allows you to launch the app by clicking.If you set `host = public'`, the application will be launched on the public server to which you are connected. Thus, all other devices connected to the same server will be able to access the application through the link of your `IPv4` extended by the port. You can stop the application by leaving the terminal opened by the shortcut.
