Matrix-variate covariance estimation via the Kronecker-core decomposition. Computes the Kronecker and core covariance matrices corresponding to an arbitrary covariance matrix, and provides an empirical Bayes covariance estimator that adaptively shrinks towards the space of separable covariance matrices. For details, see Hoff, McCormack and Zhang (2022) <arXiv:2207.12484> "Core Shrinkage Covariance Estimation for Matrix-variate data".

This k-means algorithm is able to cluster data with missing values and as a by-product completes the data set. The implementation can deal with missing values in multiple variables and is computationally efficient since it iteratively uses the current cluster assignment to define a plausible distribution for missing value imputation. Weights are used to shrink early random draws for missing values (i.e., draws based on the cluster assignments after few iterations) towards the global mean of each feature. This shrinkage slowly fades out after a fixed number of iterations to reflect the increasing credibility of cluster assignments. See the vignette for details.

This package provides a collection of ergonomic large language model assistants designed to help you complete repetitive, hard-to-automate tasks quickly. After selecting some code, press the keyboard shortcut you've chosen to trigger the package app, select an assistant, and watch your chore be carried out. While the package ships with a number of chore helpers for R package development, users can create custom helpers just by writing some instructions in a markdown file.

Cross-validate one or multiple regression and classification models and get relevant evaluation metrics in a tidy format. Validate the best model on a test set and compare it to a baseline evaluation. Alternatively, evaluate predictions from an external model. Currently supports regression and classification (binary and multiclass). Described in chp. 5 of Jeyaraman, B. P., Olsen, L. R., & Wambugu M. (2019, ISBN: 9781838550134).

Count transformation models featuring parameters interpretable as discrete hazard ratios, odds ratios, reverse-time discrete hazard ratios, or transformed expectations. An appropriate data transformation for a count outcome and regression coefficients are simultaneously estimated by maximising the exact discrete log-likelihood using the computational framework provided in package mlt', technical details are given in Siegfried & Hothorn (2020) <DOI:10.1111/2041-210X.13383>. The package also contains an experimental implementation of multivariate count transformation models with an application to multi-species distribution models <DOI:10.48550/arXiv.2201.13095>.

Constrained ordinary least squares is performed. One constraint is that all beta coefficients (including the constant) cannot be negative. They can be either 0 or strictly positive. Another constraint is that the sum of the beta coefficients equals a constant. References: Hansen, B. E. (2022). Econometrics, Princeton University Press. <ISBN:9780691235899>.

The phenology of plants (i.e. the timing of their annual life phases) depends on climatic cues. For temperate trees and many other plants, spring phases, such as leaf emergence and flowering, have been found to result from the effects of both cool (chilling) conditions and heat. Fruit tree scientists (pomologists) have developed some metrics to quantify chilling and heat (e.g. see Luedeling (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.scienta.2012.07.011>). chillR contains functions for processing temperature records into chilling (Chilling Hours, Utah Chill Units and Chill Portions) and heat units (Growing Degree Hours). Regarding chilling metrics, Chill Portions are often considered the most promising, but they are difficult to calculate. This package makes it easy. chillR also contains procedures for conducting a PLS analysis relating phenological dates (e.g. bloom dates) to either mean temperatures or mean chill and heat accumulation rates, based on long-term weather and phenology records (Luedeling and Gassner (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.agrformet.2011.10.020>). As of version 0.65, it also includes functions for generating weather scenarios with a weather generator, for conducting climate change analyses for temperature-based climatic metrics and for plotting results from such analyses. Since version 0.70, chillR contains a function for interpolating hourly temperature records.

Uses inverse probability weighting methods to estimate treatment effect under marginal structure model for the cause-specific hazard of competing risk events. Estimates also the cumulative incidence function (i.e. risk) of the potential outcomes, and provides inference on risk difference and risk ratio.

Given a non-linear model, calculate the local explanation. We purpose view the data space, explanation space, and model residuals as ensemble graphic interactive on a shiny application. After an observation of interest is identified, the normalized variable importance of the local explanation is used as a 1D projection basis. The support of the local explanation is then explored by changing the basis with the use of the radial tour <doi:10.32614/RJ-2020-027>; <doi:10.1080/10618600.1997.10474754>.

Plots a set of x,y,z co-ordinates in a contour map. Designed to be similar to plots in base R so additional elements can be added using lines(), points() etc. This package is intended to be better suited, than existing packages, to displaying circular shaped plots such as those often seen in the semi-conductor industry.

Colocalisation analysis tests whether two traits share a causal genetic variant in a specified genomic region. Proportional testing for colocalisation has been previously proposed [Wallace (2013) <doi:10.1002/gepi.21765>], but is reimplemented here to overcome barriers to its adoption. Its use is complementary to the fine- mapping based colocalisation method in the coloc package, and may be used in particular to identify false "H3" conclusions in coloc'.

This package implements Firth's penalized maximum likelihood bias reduction method for Cox regression which has been shown to provide a solution in case of monotone likelihood (nonconvergence of likelihood function), see Heinze and Schemper (2001) and Heinze and Dunkler (2008). The program fits profile penalized likelihood confidence intervals which were proved to outperform Wald confidence intervals.

Customized training is a simple technique for transductive learning, when the test covariates are known at the time of training. The method identifies a subset of the training set to serve as the training set for each of a few identified subsets in the training set. This package implements customized training for the glmnet() and cv.glmnet() functions.
