Mica is a server application used to create data web portals for large-scale epidemiological studies or multiple-study consortia. Mica helps studies to provide scientifically robust data visibility and web presence without significant information technology effort. Mica provides a structured description of consortia, studies, annotated and searchable data dictionaries, and data access request management. This Mica client allows to perform data extraction for reporting purposes.

Function ModEstM() is the only one of this package, it estimates the modes of an empirical univariate distribution. It relies on the stats::density() function, even for input control. Due to very good performance of the density estimation, computation time is not an issue. The multiple modes are handled using dplyr::group_by(). For conditions and rates of convergences, see Eddy (1980) <doi:10.1214/aos/1176345080>.

This package implements the method to analyse weighted mobility networks or distribution networks as outlined in: Block, P., Stadtfeld, C., & Robins, G. (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.socnet.2021.08.003>. The purpose of the model is to analyse the structure of mobility, incorporating exogenous predictors pertaining to individuals and locations known from classical mobility analyses, as well as modelling emergent mobility patterns akin to structural patterns known from the statistical analysis of social networks.

This package provides a multivariate generalization of the emulator package.

The Markowitz criterion is a multicriteria decision-making method that stands out in risk and uncertainty analysis in contexts where probabilities are known. This approach represents an evolution of Pascal's criterion by incorporating the dimension of variability. In this framework, the expected value reflects the anticipated return, while the standard deviation serves as a measure of risk. The markowitz package provides a practical and accessible tool for implementing this method, enabling researchers and professionals to perform analyses without complex calculations. Thus, the package facilitates the application of the Markowitz criterion. More details on the method can be found in Octave Jokung-Nguéna (2001, ISBN 2100055372).

Allows practitioners and researchers a wholesale approach for deriving magnitude-based inferences from raw data. A major goal of mbir is to programmatically detect appropriate statistical tests to run in lieu of relying on practitioners to determine correct stepwise procedures independently.

Traditional and spatial capture-mark-recapture analysis with multiple non-invasive marks. The models implemented in multimark combine encounter history data arising from two different non-invasive "marks", such as images of left-sided and right-sided pelage patterns of bilaterally asymmetrical species, to estimate abundance and related demographic parameters while accounting for imperfect detection. Bayesian models are specified using simple formulae and fitted using Markov chain Monte Carlo. Addressing deficiencies in currently available software, multimark also provides a user-friendly interface for performing Bayesian multimodel inference using non-spatial or spatial capture-recapture data consisting of a single conventional mark or multiple non-invasive marks. See McClintock (2015) <doi:10.1002/ece3.1676> and Maronde et al. (2020) <doi:10.1002/ece3.6990>.

This package provides a set of utility functions for analysing and modelling data from continuous report short-term memory experiments using either the 2-component mixture model of Zhang and Luck (2008) <doi:10.1038/nature06860> or the 3-component mixture model of Bays et al. (2009) <doi:10.1167/9.10.7>. Users are also able to simulate from these models.

Carries out model-based clustering, classification and discriminant analysis using five different models. The models are all based on the generalized hyperbolic distribution. The first model MGHD (Browne and McNicholas (2015) <doi:10.1002/cjs.11246>) is the classical mixture of generalized hyperbolic distributions. The MGHFA (Tortora et al. (2016) <doi:10.1007/s11634-015-0204-z>) is the mixture of generalized hyperbolic factor analyzers for high dimensional data sets. The MSGHD is the mixture of multiple scaled generalized hyperbolic distributions, the cMSGHD is a MSGHD with convex contour plots and the MCGHD', mixture of coalesced generalized hyperbolic distributions is a new more flexible model (Tortora et al. (2019)<doi:10.1007/s00357-019-09319-3>. The paper related to the software can be found at <doi:10.18637/jss.v098.i03>.

Many useful functions and extensions for dealing with meteorological data in the tidy data framework. Extends ggplot2 for better plotting of scalar and vector fields and provides commonly used analysis methods in the atmospheric sciences.

This package provides methods for controlling the median of the false discovery proportion (mFDP). Depending on the method, simultaneous or non-simultaneous inference is provided. The methods take a vector of p-values or test statistics as input.

Generates Raven like matrices according to different rules and the response list associated to the matrix. The package can generate matrices composed of 4 or 9 cells, along with a response list of 11 elements (the correct response + 10 incorrect responses). The matrices can be generated according to both logical rules (i.e., the relationships between the elements in the matrix are manipulated to create the matrix) and visual-spatial rules (i.e., the visual or spatial characteristics of the elements are manipulated to generate the matrix). The graphical elements of this package are based on the DescTools package. This package has been developed within the PRIN2020 Project (Prot. 20209WKCLL) titled "Computerized, Adaptive and Personalized Assessment of Executive Functions and Fluid Intelligence" and founded by the Italian Ministry of Education and Research.

This package provides classes to implement, analyze and plot cohort life tables for actuarial calculations. Birth-year dependent cohort mortality tables using a yearly trend to extrapolate from a base year are implemented, as well as period life table, cohort life tables using an age shift, and merged life tables. Additionally, several data sets from various countries are included to provide widely-used tables out of the box.

Life expectancy is highly correlated over time among countries and between males and females. These associations can be used to improve forecasts. Here we have implemented a method for forecasting female life expectancy based on analysis of the gap between female life expectancy in a country compared with the record level of female life expectancy in the world. Second, to forecast male life expectancy, the gap between male life expectancy and female life expectancy in a country is analysed. We named this method the Double-Gap model. For a detailed description of the method see Pascariu et al. (2018). <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2017.09.011>.

Using this package, one can determine the minimum sample size required so that the absolute deviation of the sample mean and the population mean of a distribution becomes less than some pre-determined epsilon, i.e. it helps the user to determine the minimum sample size required to attain the pre-fixed precision level by minimizing the difference between the sample mean and population mean.

Calculate the maximal fat oxidation, the exercise intensity that elicits the maximal fat oxidation and the SIN model to represent the fat oxidation kinetics. Three variables can be obtained from the SIN model: dilatation, symmetry and translation. Examples of these methods can be found in Montes de Oca et al (2021) <doi:10.1080/17461391.2020.1788650> and Chenevière et al. (2009) <doi:10.1249/MSS.0b013e31819e2f91>.

Fits Bayesian dose-response model-based network meta-analysis (MBNMA) that incorporate multiple doses within an agent by modelling different dose-response functions, as described by Mawdsley et al. (2016) <doi:10.1002/psp4.12091>. By modelling dose-response relationships this can connect networks of evidence that might otherwise be disconnected, and can improve precision on treatment estimates. Several common dose-response functions are provided; others may be added by the user. Various characteristics and assumptions can be flexibly added to the models, such as shared class effects. The consistency of direct and indirect evidence in the network can be assessed using unrelated mean effects models and/or by node-splitting at the treatment level.
