Computes how the correlation between 2 time-series changes over time. To do so, the package follows the method from Choi & Shin (2021) <doi:10.1007/s42952-020-00073-6>. It performs a non-parametric kernel smoothing (using a common bandwidth) of all underlying components required for the computation of a correlation coefficient (i.e., x, y, x^2, y^2, xy). An automatic selection procedure for the bandwidth parameter is implemented. Alternative kernels can be used (Epanechnikov, box and normal). Both Pearson and Spearman correlation coefficients can be estimated and change in correlation over time can be tested.

This package provides a tool to obtain tumor growth rates from clinical trial patient data. Output includes individual and summary data for tumor growth rate estimates as well as optional plots of the observed and predicted tumor quantity over time.

Uses the Distorted Wave Born Approximation (DWBA) to compute the acoustic backward scattering, the geometry of the object is formed by a volumetric mesh, composed of tetrahedrons. This computation is done efficiently through an analytical 3D integration that allows for a solution which is expressed in terms of elementary functions for each tetrahedron. It is important to note that this method is only valid for objects whose acoustic properties, such as density and sound speed, do not vary significantly compared to the surrounding medium.

This data package includes a collection of 10 years (2006 - 2015) worth of data on materials used at U.S. breweries in pounds reported by the Brewer's Report of Operations and the Quarterly Brewer's Report of Operations forms, ready for data analysis. This package also includes historical tax rates on distilled spirits, wine, beer, champagne, and tobacco products as individual data sets.

Approximations of global p-values when testing hypothesis in presence of non-identifiable nuisance parameters. The method relies on the Euler characteristic heuristic and the expected Euler characteristic is efficiently computed by in Algeri and van Dyk (2018) <arXiv:1803.03858>.

This package provides functions implementing minimal distance estimation methods for parametric tail dependence models, as proposed in Einmahl, J.H.J., Kiriliouk, A., Krajina, A., and Segers, J. (2016) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12114> and Einmahl, J.H.J., Kiriliouk, A., and Segers, J. (2018) <doi:10.1007/s10687-017-0303-7>.

Using Gaussian graphical models we propose a novel approach to perform pathway analysis using gene expression. Given the structure of a graph (a pathway) we introduce two statistical tests to compare the mean and the concentration matrices between two groups. Specifically, these tests can be performed on the graph and on its connected components (cliques). The package is based on the method described in Massa M.S., Chiogna M., Romualdi C. (2010) <doi:10.1186/1752-0509-4-121>.

Data frame class for storing collective movement data (e.g. fish schools, ungulate herds, baboon troops) collected from GPS trackers or computer vision tracking software.

Several datasets which describe the chef contestants in Top Chef, the challenges that they compete in, and the results of those challenges. This data is useful for practicing data wrangling, graphing, and analyzing how each season of Top Chef played out.

Save the output of statistical tests in an organized file that can be shared with others or used to report statistics in scientific papers.

This package implements the template ICA (independent components analysis) model proposed in Mejia et al. (2020) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2019.1679638> and the spatial template ICA model proposed in proposed in Mejia et al. (2022) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2022.2104289>. Both models estimate subject-level brain as deviations from known population-level networks, which are estimated using standard ICA algorithms. Both models employ an expectation-maximization algorithm for estimation of the latent brain networks and unknown model parameters. Includes direct support for CIFTI', GIFTI', and NIFTI neuroimaging file formats.

Estimators for semi-parametric linear regression models with truncated response variables (fixed truncation point). The estimators implemented are the Symmetrically Trimmed Least Squares (STLS) estimator introduced by Powell (1986) <doi:10.2307/1914308>, the Quadratic Mode (QME) estimator introduced by Lee (1993) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(93)90056-B>, and the Left Truncated (LT) estimator introduced by Karlsson (2006) <doi:10.1007/s00184-005-0023-x>.

This package provides a bootstrap test which decides whether two dose response curves can be assumed as equal concerning their maximum absolute deviation. A plenty of choices for the model types are available, which can be found in the DoseFinding package, which is used for the fitting of the models. See <doi:10.1080/01621459.2017.1281813> for details.

An implementation that combines trait data and a phylogenetic tree (or trees) into a single object of class treedata.table'. The resulting object can be easily manipulated to simultaneously change the trait- and tree-level sampling. Currently implemented functions allow users to use a data.table syntax when performing operations on the trait dataset within the treedata.table object. For more details see Roman-Palacios et al. (2021) <doi:10.7717/peerj.12450>.

This package implements nonlinear autoregressive (AR) time series models. For univariate series, a non-parametric approach is available through additive nonlinear AR. Parametric modeling and testing for regime switching dynamics is available when the transition is either direct (TAR: threshold AR) or smooth (STAR: smooth transition AR, LSTAR). For multivariate series, one can estimate a range of TVAR or threshold cointegration TVECM models with two or three regimes. Tests can be conducted for TVAR as well as for TVECM (Hansen and Seo 2002 and Seo 2006).

Binary ties limit the richness of network analyses as relations are unique. The two-mode structure contains a number of features lost when projection it to a one-mode network. Longitudinal datasets allow for an understanding of the causal relationship among ties, which is not the case in cross-sectional datasets as ties are dependent upon each other.

This package provides a shiny app that generates plots and summary tables from repeat-dose toxicology study results to facilitate holistic evaluation of the drug safety of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) prior to initiation of clinical trials.

This package provides functions and example files to calculate the tRNA adaptation index, a measure of the level of co-adaptation between the set of tRNA genes and the codon usage bias of protein-coding genes in a given genome. The methodology is described in dos Reis, Wernisch and Savva (2003) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkg897>, and dos Reis, Savva and Wernisch (2004) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkh834>.

This package provides a suite of auxiliary functions that enhance time series estimation and forecasting, including a robust anomaly detection routine based on Chen and Liu (1993) <doi:10.2307/2290724> (imported and wrapped from the tsoutliers package), utilities for managing calendar and time conversions, performance metrics to assess both point forecasts and distributional predictions, advanced simulation by allowing the generation of time series componentsâ such as trend, seasonal, ARMA, irregular, and anomaliesâ in a modular fashion based on the innovations form of the state space model and a number of transformation methods including Box-Cox, Logit, Softplus-Logit and Sigmoid.

Several statistical test functions as well as a function for exploratory data analysis to investigate classifiers allocating individuals to one of three disjoint and ordered classes. In a single classifier assessment the discriminatory power is compared to classification by chance. In a comparison of two classifiers the null hypothesis corresponds to equal discriminatory power of the two classifiers.
