Includes algorithms to assess alpha and beta diversity in all their dimensions (taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional). It allows performing a number of analyses based on species identities/abundances, phylogenetic/functional distances, trees, convex-hulls or kernel density n-dimensional hypervolumes depicting species relationships.

Batsim is an infrastructure simulator that enables the study of resource management techniques.

Compute bounds for the treatment effect after adjusting for the presence of omitted variables in linear econometric models, according to the method of Basu (2022) <arXiv:2203.12431>. You supply the data, identify the outcome and treatment variables and additional regressors. The main functions will compute bounds for the bias-adjusted treatment effect. Many plot functions allow easy visualization of results.

Defines operating characteristics of Bayesian Adaptive Trials considering a generalised linear model response via Monte Carlo simulations of Bayesian GLM fitted via integrated Laplace approximations (INLA).

This package provides functions to allow you to easily pass command-line arguments into R, and functions to aid in submitting your R code in parallel on a cluster and joining the results afterward (e.g. multiple parameter values for simulations running in parallel, splitting up a permutation test in parallel, etc.). See `parseCommandArgs(...) for the main example of how to use this package.

This package provides a cat(1) clone with wings.

This Vim plugin extends the built-in `sh.vim` to support the Bats (Bash Automated Testing Framework) testing framework's syntax.

Survey systems and other third-party data sources commonly use non-standard representations of logical values when it comes to qualitative data - "Yes", "No" and "N/A", say. batman is a package designed to seamlessly convert these into logicals. It is highly localised, and contains equivalents to boolean values in languages including German, French, Spanish, Italian, Turkish, Chinese and Polish.

Allows the user to manage easily R packages removal and installation. It offers many functions to display installed packages according to specific dates and removes them if needed. The user is always prompted when running the removal functions in order to confirm the required action. It also provides functions that will install Github starred R packages whether available on CRAN or not.

Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data sets by Batsch et al. (2008) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-9-95>. This package provides five data sets, one for each PCR target: (i) rat SLC6A14, (ii) human SLC22A13, (iii) pig EMT, (iv) chicken ETT, and (v) human GAPDH. Each data set comprises a five-point, four-fold dilution series. For each concentration there are three replicates. Each amplification curve is 45 cycles long.

Sequencing and microarray samples often are collected or processed in multiple batches or at different times. This often produces technical biases that can lead to incorrect results in the downstream analysis. BatchQC is a software tool that streamlines batch preprocessing and evaluation by providing interactive diagnostics, visualizations, and statistical analyses to explore the extent to which batch variation impacts the data. BatchQC diagnostics help determine whether batch adjustment needs to be done, and how correction should be applied before proceeding with a downstream analysis. Moreover, BatchQC interactively applies multiple common batch effect approaches to the data and the user can quickly see the benefits of each method. BatchQC is developed as a Shiny App. The output is organized into multiple tabs and each tab features an important part of the batch effect analysis and visualization of the data. The BatchQC interface has the following analysis groups: Summary, Differential Expression, Median Correlations, Heatmaps, Circular Dendrogram, PCA Analysis, Shape, ComBat and SVA.

Handy frameworks, such as error handling and log generation, for batch scripts. Use case: in scripts running in remote servers, set error handling mechanism for downloading and uploading and record operation log.

Different adjustment methods for batch effects in biomarker data, such as from tissue microarrays. Some methods attempt to retain differences between batches that may be due to between-batch differences in "biological" factors that influence biomarker values.

Batch process large language model (LLM) text completions using data frame rows, with support for OpenAI's GPT (<https://chat.openai.com>), Anthropic's Claude (<https://claude.ai>), and Google's Gemini (<https://gemini.google.com>). Includes features such as local storage, metadata logging, API rate limiting delays, and a shiny app addin.

Semi-supervised and unsupervised Bayesian mixture models that simultaneously infer the cluster/class structure and a batch correction. Densities available are the multivariate normal and the multivariate t. The model sampler is implemented in C++. This package is aimed at analysis of low-dimensional data generated across several batches. See Coleman et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.01.14.476352> for details of the model.

`BatchSVG` is a feature-based Quality Control (QC) to identify SVGs on spatial transcriptomics data with specific types of batch effect. Regarding to the spatial transcriptomics data experiments, the batch can be defined as "sample", "sex", and etc.The `BatchSVG` method is based on binomial deviance model (Townes et al, 2019) and applies cutoffs based on the number of standard deviation (nSD) of relative change in deviance and rank difference as the data-driven thresholding approach to detect the batch-biased outliers.

This package provides consistent batch means estimation of Monte Carlo standard errors.

In computationally demanding analysis projects, statisticians and data scientists asynchronously deploy long-running tasks to distributed systems, ranging from traditional clusters to cloud services. The crew.aws.batch package extends the mirai'-powered crew package with a worker launcher plugin for AWS Batch. Inspiration also comes from packages mirai by Gao (2023) <https://github.com/r-lib/mirai>, future by Bengtsson (2021) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-048>, rrq by FitzJohn and Ashton (2023) <https://github.com/mrc-ide/rrq>, clustermq by Schubert (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz284>), and batchtools by Lang, Bischl, and Surmann (2017). <doi:10.21105/joss.00135>.
