This package provides functions and data to accompany the 5th edition of the book "Applied Nonparametric Statistical Methods" (4th edition: Sprent & Smeeton, 2024, ISBN:158488701X), the revisions from the 4th edition including a move from describing the output from a miscellany of statistical software packages to using R. While the output from many of the functions can also be obtained using a range of other R functions, this package provides functions in a unified setting and give output using both p-values and confidence intervals, exemplifying the book's approach of treating p-values as a guide to statistical importance and not an end product in their own right. Please note that in creating the ANSM5 package we do not claim to have produced software which is necessarily the most computationally efficient nor the most comprehensive.

This package provides a systematic framework for neural networkâ based model selection and forecasting using single hidden layer feed-forward networks. It evaluates all possible combinations of predictor variables and hidden layer configurations, selecting the optimal model based on predictive accuracy criteria such as root mean squared error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). Predictors are automatically standardized, and model performance is assessed using out-of-sample validation. The package is designed for empirical modelling and forecasting in economics, agriculture, trade, climate, and related applied research domains where nonlinear relationships and robust predictive performance are of primary interest.

This package provides an algebra over probability distributions enabling composition, sampling, and automatic simplification to closed forms. Supports normal, exponential, gamma, Weibull, chi-squared, uniform, beta, log-normal, Poisson, multivariate normal, empirical, and mixture distributions with algebraic operators (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, power, exp, log, min, max) that automatically simplify when mathematical identities apply. Includes closed-form MVN conditioning (Schur complement), affine transformations, mixture marginals/conditionals (Bayes rule), and limiting distribution builders (CLT, LLN, delta method). Uses S3 classes for distributions and R6 for support objects.

This package provides cross-validation tools for adsorption isotherm models, supporting both linear and non-linear forms. Current methods cover commonly used isotherms including the Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin models. This package implements K-fold and leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) with optional clustering-based fold assignment to preserve underlying data structures during validation. Model predictive performance is assessed using mean squared error (MSE), with optional graphical visualization of fold-wise MSEs to support intuitive evaluation of model accuracy. This package is intended to facilitate rigorous model validation in adsorption studies and aid researchers in selecting robust isotherm models. For more details, see Montgomery et al. (2012) <isbn: 978-0-470-54281-1>, Lumumba et al. (2024) <doi:10.11648/j.ajtas.20241305.13>, and Yates et al. (2022) <doi:10.1002/ecm.1557>.

Probability surveys often use auxiliary continuous data from administrative records, but the utility of this data is diminished when it is discretized for confidentiality. We provide a set of survey estimators to make full use of information from the discretized variables. See Williams, S.Z., Zou, J., Liu, Y., Si, Y., Galea, S. and Chen, Q. (2024), Improving Survey Inference Using Administrative Records Without Releasing Individual-Level Continuous Data. Statistics in Medicine, 43: 5803-5813. <doi:10.1002/sim.10270> for details.

Response surface designs (RSDs) are widely used for Response Surface Methodology (RSM) based optimization studies, which aid in exploring the relationship between a group of explanatory variables and one or more response variable(s) (G.E.P. Box and K.B. Wilson (1951), "On the experimental attainment of optimum conditions" ; M. Hemavathi, Shashi Shekhar, Eldho Varghese, Seema Jaggi, Bikas Sinha & Nripes Kumar Mandal (2022) <DOI: 10.1080/03610926.2021.1944213>."Theoretical developments in response surface designs: an informative review and further thoughts".). Second order rotatable designs are the most prominent and popular class of designs used for process and product optimization trials but it is suitable for situations when all the number of levels for each factor is the same. In many practical situations, RSDs with asymmetric levels (J.S. Mehta and M.N. Das (1968). "Asymmetric rotatable designs and orthogonal transformations" ; M. Hemavathi, Eldho Varghese, Shashi Shekhar & Seema Jaggi (2020) <DOI: 10.1080/02664763.2020.1864817>. "Sequential asymmetric third order rotatable designs (SATORDs)" .) are more suitable as these designs explore more regions in the design space.This package contains functions named Asords() ,CCD_coded(), CCD_original(), SORD_coded() and SORD_original() for generating asymmetric/symmetric RSDs along with the randomized layout. It also contains another function named Pred.var() for generating the variance of predicted response as well as the moment matrix based on a second order model.

Targeted differential and global enrichment analysis of taxonomic rank by shared ASVs (Amplicon Sequence Variant), for high-throughput eDNA sequencing of fungi, bacteria, and metazoan. Actually works in two steps: I) Targeted differential analysis from QIIME2 data and II) Global analysis by Taxon Mann-Whitney U test analysis from targeted analysis (I) (I) Estimate variance-mean dependence in count/abundance ASVs data from high-throughput sequencing assays and test for differential represented ASVs based on a model using the negative binomial distribution. (II) NCBITaxon_MWU uses continuous measure of significance (such as fold-change or -log(p-value)) to identify NCBITaxon that are significantly enriches with either up- or down-represented ASVs. If the measure is binary (0 or 1) the script will perform a typical NCBITaxon enrichment analysis based Fisher's exact test: it will show NCBITaxon over-represented among the ASVs that have 1 as their measure. On the plot, different fonts are used to indicate significance and color indicates enrichment with either up (red) or down (blue) regulated ASVs. No colors are shown for binary measure analysis. The tree on the plot is hierarchical clustering of NCBITaxon based on shared ASVs. Categories with no branch length between them are subsets of each other. The fraction next to the category name indicates the fraction of good ASVs in it; good ASVs are the ones exceeding the arbitrary absValue cutoff (option in taxon_mwuPlot()). For Fisher's based test, specify absValue=0.5. This value does not affect statistics and is used for plotting only. The original idea was for genes differential expression analysis from Wright et al (2015) <doi:10.1186/s12864-015-1540-2>; adapted here for taxonomic analysis. The Anaconda package makes it possible to carry out these analyses by automatically creating several graphs and tables and storing them in specially created subfolders. You will need your QIIME2 pipeline output for each kingdom (eg; Fungi and/or Bacteria and/or Metazoan): i) taxonomy.tsv, ii) taxonomy_RepSeq.tsv, iii) ASV.tsv and iv) SampleSheet_comparison.txt (the latter being created by you).

Perform the Adaptable Regularized Hotelling's T^2 test (ARHT) proposed by Li et al., (2016) <arXiv:1609.08725>.

In addition, it contains a function to sample from 3-variate chi-squared random vectors approximately with a given correlation matrix when the degrees of freedom are large.

This package provides tools for the identification of unique multilocus genotypes when both genotyping error and missing data may be present. Includes a data pre-screening utility to analyze pairwise locus overlap and protect against underlying mathematical sorting constraints. Targeted for use with large datasets and databases containing multiple samples of each individual (a common situation in conservation genetics, particularly in non-invasive wildlife sampling applications). Functions explicitly incorporate missing data and can tolerate allele mismatches created by genotyping error. If you use this package, please cite the original publication in Molecular Ecology Resources (Galpern et al., 2012), the details for which can be generated using citation('allelematch'). The complete user manual and analytical tutorials are included locally as an R vignette and can be accessed within an active R session using vignette('allelematch').
