This package provides fast spectral estimation of latent factors in random dot product graphs using the vsp estimator. Under mild assumptions, the vsp estimator is consistent for (degree-corrected) stochastic blockmodels, (degree-corrected) mixed-membership stochastic blockmodels, and degree-corrected overlapping stochastic blockmodels.

Using frequency matrices, very low frequency variants (VLFs) are assessed for amino acid and nucleotide sequences. The VLFs are then compared to see if they occur in only one member of a species, singleton VLFs, or if they occur in multiple members of a species, shared VLFs. The amino acid and nucleotide VLFs are then compared to see if they are concordant with one another. Amino acid VLFs are also assessed to determine if they lead to a change in amino acid residue type, and potential changes to protein structures. Based on Stoeckle and Kerr (2012) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0043992> and Phillips et al. (2023) <doi:10.3897/BDJ.11.e96480>.

Estimates and plots as a heat map the correlation coefficients obtained via the wavelet local multiple correlation WLMC (Fernández-Macho 2018) and the dominant variable/s, i.e., the variable/s that maximizes the multiple correlation through time and scale (Polanco-Martà nez et al. 2020, Polanco-Martà nez 2022). We improve the graphical outputs of WLMC proposing a didactic and useful way to visualize the dominant variable(s) for a set of time series. The WLMC was designed for financial time series, but other kinds of data (e.g., climatic, ecological, etc.) can be used. The functions contained in VisualDom are highly flexible since these contains several parameters to personalize the time series under analysis and the heat maps. In addition, we have also included two data sets (named rdata_climate and rdata_Lorenz') to exemplify the use of the functions contained in VisualDom'. Methods derived from Fernández-Macho (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.physa.2017.11.050>, Polanco-Martà nez et al. (2020) <doi:10.1038/s41598-020-77767-8> and Polanco-Martà nez (2023, in press).

This package provides methods to calculate diagnostics for multicollinearity among predictors in a linear or generalized linear model. It also provides methods to visualize those diagnostics following Friendly & Kwan (2009), "Whereâ s Waldo: Visualizing Collinearity Diagnostics", <doi:10.1198/tast.2009.0012>. These include better tabular presentation of collinearity diagnostics that highlight the important numbers, a semi-graphic tableplot of the diagnostics to make warning and danger levels more salient, and a "collinearity biplot" of the smallest dimensions of predictor space, where collinearity is most apparent.

This package implements a set of routines to perform structured matrix factorization with minimum volume constraints. The NMF procedure decomposes a matrix X into a product C * D. Given conditions such that the matrix C is non-negative and has sufficiently spread columns, then volume minimization of a matrix D delivers a correct and unique, up to a scale and permutation, solution (C, D). This package provides both an implementation of volume-regularized NMF and "anchor-free" NMF, whereby the standard NMF problem is reformulated in the covariance domain. This algorithm was applied in Vladimir B. Seplyarskiy Ruslan A. Soldatov, et al. "Population sequencing data reveal a compendium of mutational processes in the human germ line". Science, 12 Aug 2021. <doi:10.1126/science.aba7408>. This package interacts with data available through the simulatedNMF package, which is available in a drat repository. To access this data package, see the instructions at <https://github.com/kharchenkolab/vrnmf>. The size of the simulatedNMF package is approximately 8 MB.

Fits generalized additive models (GAMs) using a variational approximations (VA) framework. In brief, the VA framework provides a fully or at least closed to fully tractable lower bound approximation to the marginal likelihood of a GAM when it is parameterized as a mixed model (using penalized splines, say). In doing so, the VA framework aims offers both the stability and natural inference tools available in the mixed model approach to GAMs, while achieving computation times comparable to that of using the penalized likelihood approach to GAMs. See Hui et al. (2018) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1518235>.

Three steps variable selection procedure based on random forests. Initially developed to handle high dimensional data (for which number of variables largely exceeds number of observations), the package is very versatile and can treat most dimensions of data, for regression and supervised classification problems. First step is dedicated to eliminate irrelevant variables from the dataset. Second step aims to select all variables related to the response for interpretation purpose. Third step refines the selection by eliminating redundancy in the set of variables selected by the second step, for prediction purpose. Genuer, R. Poggi, J.-M. and Tuleau-Malot, C. (2015) <https://journal.r-project.org/articles/RJ-2015-018/>.

Under a different representation of the multivariate normal (MVN) probability, we can use the Vecchia approximation to sample the integrand at a linear complexity with respect to n. Additionally, both the SOV algorithm from Genz (92) and the exponential-tilting method from Botev (2017) can be adapted to linear complexity. The reference for the method implemented in this package is Jian Cao and Matthias Katzfuss (2024) "Linear-Cost Vecchia Approximation of Multivariate Normal Probabilities" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2311.09426>. Two major references for the development of our method are Alan Genz (1992) "Numerical Computation of Multivariate Normal Probabilities" <doi:10.1080/10618600.1992.10477010> and Z. I. Botev (2017) "The Normal Law Under Linear Restrictions: Simulation and Estimation via Minimax Tilting" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1603.04166>.
