Fuzzy set ordination is a multivariate analysis used in ecology to relate the composition of samples to possible explanatory variables. While differing in theory and method, in practice, the use is similar to constrained ordination. The package contains plotting and summary functions as well as the analyses.

Randomized and balanced allocation of units to treatment groups using the Finite Selection Model (FSM). The FSM was originally proposed and developed at the RAND corporation by Carl Morris to enhance the experimental design for the now famous Health Insurance Experiment. See Morris (1979) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(79)90053-8> for details on the original version of the FSM.

Estimating the number of factors in Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) with out-of-sample prediction errors using a cross-validation scheme. Haslbeck & van Bork (Preprint) <https://psyarxiv.com/qktsd>.

Social Relations Analysis with roles ("Family SRM") are computed, using a structural equation modeling approach. Groups ranging from three members up to an unlimited number of members are supported and the mean structure can be computed. Means and variances can be compared between different groups of families and between roles.

Wrapper functions that interface with FSL <http://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fslwiki/>, a powerful and commonly-used neuroimaging software, using system commands. The goal is to be able to interface with FSL completely in R, where you pass R objects of class nifti', implemented by package oro.nifti', and the function executes an FSL command and returns an R object of class nifti if desired.

Import data of tests and questionnaires from FormScanner. FormScanner is an open source software that converts scanned images to data using optical mark recognition (OMR) and it can be downloaded from <http://sourceforge.net/projects/formscanner/>. The spreadsheet file created by FormScanner is imported in a convenient format to perform the analyses provided by the package. These analyses include the conversion of multiple responses to binary (correct/incorrect) data, the computation of the number of corrected responses for each subject or item, scoring using weights,the computation and the graphical representation of the frequencies of the responses to each item and the report of the responses of a few subjects.

This package provides three methods proposed by Shang and Apley (2019) <doi:10.1080/00224065.2019.1705207> to generate fully-sequential space-filling designs inside a unit hypercube. A fully-sequential space-filling design means a sequence of nested designs (as the design size varies from one point up to some maximum number of points) with the design points added one at a time and such that the design at each size has good space-filling properties. Two methods target the minimum pairwise distance criterion and generate maximin designs, among which one method is more efficient when design size is large. One method targets the maximum hole size criterion and uses a heuristic to generate what is closer to a minimax design.

FS-DAM performs feature extraction through latent variables identification. Implementation is based on autoencoders with monotonicity and orthogonality constraints.

This package provides functions for importing, creating, editing and exporting FSK files <https://foodrisklabs.bfr.bund.de/fskx-food-safety-knowledge-exchange-format/> using the R programming environment. Furthermore, it enables users to run simulations contained in the FSK files and visualize the results.

This package provides interface to the MATLAB toolbox Flexible Statistical Data Analysis (FSDA) which is comprehensive and computationally efficient software package for robust statistics in regression, multivariate and categorical data analysis. The current R version implements tools for regression: (forward search, S- and MM-estimation, least trimmed squares (LTS) and least median of squares (LMS)), for multivariate analysis (forward search, S- and MM-estimation), for cluster analysis and cluster-wise regression. The distinctive feature of our package is the possibility of monitoring the statistics of interest as a function of breakdown point, efficiency or subset size, depending on the estimator. This is accompanied by a rich set of graphical features, such as dynamic brushing, linking, particularly useful for exploratory data analysis.

An optimizer of Fused-Sparse Structural Equation Models, which is the state of the art jointly fused sparse maximum likelihood function for structural equation models proposed by Xin Zhou and Xiaodong Cai (2018 <doi:10.1101/466623>).

This package provides a program to generate smoothed quantiles for the Fst-heterozygosity distribution. Designed for use with large numbers of loci (e.g., genome-wide SNPs). The best case for analyzing the Fst-heterozygosity distribution is when many populations (>10) have been sampled. See Flanagan & Jones (2017) <doi:10.1093/jhered/esx048>.

This package provides efficient methods to compute local and genome wide genetic distances (corresponding to the so called Hudson Fst parameters) through moment method, perform chromosome segmentation into homogeneous Fst genomic regions, and selection sweep detection for multi-population comparison. When multiple profile segmentation is required, the procedure can be parallelized using the future package.

This package provides high-level access to neuroimaging data from standard software packages like FreeSurfer <http://freesurfer.net/> on the level of subjects and groups. Load morphometry data, surfaces and brain parcellations based on atlases. Mask data using labels, load data for specific atlas regions only, and visualize data and statistical results directly in R'.

Manages a file system cache. Regular files can be moved or copied to the cache folder. Sub-folders can be created in order to organize the files. Files can be located inside the cache using a glob function. Text contents can be easily stored in and retrieved from the cache using dedicated functions. It can be used for an application or a package, as a global cache, or as a per-user cache, in which case the standard OS user cache folder will be used (e.g.: on Linux $HOME/.cache/R/my_app_or_pkg_cache_folder).

Routines for the estimation or simultaneous estimation and variable selection in several functional semiparametric models with scalar responses are provided. These models include the functional single-index model, the semi-functional partial linear model, and the semi-functional partial linear single-index model. Additionally, the package offers algorithms for handling scalar covariates with linear effects that originate from the discretization of a curve. This functionality is applicable in the context of the linear model, the multi-functional partial linear model, and the multi-functional partial linear single-index model.

This package provides functions for selecting attributes from a given dataset. Attribute subset selection is the process of identifying and removing as much of the irrelevant and redundant information as possible.

This package provides functions for sequencing studies allowing for multiple functional annotation scores. Score type tests and an efficient perturbation method are used for individual gene/large gene-set/genome wide analysis. Only summary statistics are needed.

Has two functions to help with calculating feature selection stability. Lump is a function that groups subset vectors into a dataframe, and adds NA to shorter vectors so they all have the same length. ASM is a function that takes a dataframe of subset vectors and the original vector of features as inputs, and calculates the Stability of the feature selection. The calculation for asm uses the Adjusted Stability Measure proposed in: Lustgarten', Gopalakrishnan', & Visweswaran (2009)<https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2815476/>.

This package performs fast detection of interactions in large-scale data using the method of random intersection trees introduced in Shah, R. D. and Meinshausen, N. (2014) <http://www.jmlr.org/papers/v15/shah14a.html>. The algorithm finds potentially high-order interactions in high-dimensional binary two-class classification data, without requiring lower order interactions to be informative. The search is particularly fast when the matrices of predictors are sparse. It can also be used to perform market basket analysis when supplied with a single binary data matrix. Here it will find collections of columns which for many rows contain all 1's.
