The Epidemic Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) model is one of the best-performing methods for modeling and forecasting earthquake occurrences. This package implements Bayesian estimation routines to draw samples from the full posterior distribution of the model parameters, given an earthquake catalog. The paper on which this package is based is Gordon J. Ross - Bayesian Estimation of the ETAS Model for Earthquake Occurrences (2016), available from the below URL.
Cancer RADAR is a project which aim is to develop an infrastructure that allows quantifying the risk of cancer by migration background across Europe. This package contains a set of functions cancer registries partners should use to reshape 5 year-age group cancer incidence data into a set of summary statistics (see Boyle & Parkin (1991, ISBN:978-92-832-1195-2)) in lines with Cancer RADAR data protections rules.
Graphically display the (causal) effect of a continuous variable on a time-to-event outcome using multiple different types of plots based on g-computation. Those functions include, among others, survival area plots, survival contour plots, survival quantile plots and 3D surface plots. Due to the use of g-computation, all plot allow confounder-adjustment naturally. For details, see Robin Denz, Nina Timmesfeld (2023) <doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001630>.
Compare C-statistics (concordance statistics) between two survival models, using either bootstrap resampling (Harrell's C) or Uno's C with perturbation-resampling (from the survC1 package). Returns confidence intervals and a p-value for the difference in C-statistics. Useful for evaluating and comparing predictive performance of survival models. Methods implemented for Uno's C are described in Uno et al. (2011) <doi:10.1002/sim.4154>.
This package provides a function toolkit to facilitate reproducible RNA-Seq Differential Gene Expression (DGE) analysis (Law (2015) <doi:10.12688/f1000research.9005.3>). The tools include both analysis work-flow and utility functions: mapping/unit conversion, count normalization, accounting for unknown covariates, and more. This is a complement/cohort to the DGEobj package that provides a flexible container to manage and annotate Differential Gene Expression analysis results.
Fire behavior prediction models, including the Scott & Reinhardt's (2001) Rothermel Wildland Fire Modelling System <DOI:10.2737/RMRS-RP-29> and Alexander et al.'s (2006) Crown Fire Initiation & Spread model <DOI:10.1016/j.foreco.2006.08.174>. Also contains sample datasets, estimation of fire behavior prediction model inputs (e.g., fuel moisture, canopy characteristics, wind adjustment factor), results visualization, and methods to estimate fire weather hazard.
This package provides access to low-level operating system mechanisms for performing atomic operations on shared data structures. Mutexes provide shared and exclusive locks. Semaphores act as counters. Message queues move text strings from one process to another. All these interprocess communication (IPC) tools can optionally block with or without a timeout. Implemented using the cross-platform boost C++ library <https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/libs/interprocess/>.
Rcpp implementation of the multivariate Kalman filter for state space models that can handle missing values and exogenous data in the observation and state equations. There is also a function to handle time varying parameters. Kim, Chang-Jin and Charles R. Nelson (1999) "State-Space Models with Regime Switching: Classical and Gibbs-Sampling Approaches with Applications" <doi:10.7551/mitpress/6444.001.0001><http://econ.korea.ac.kr/~cjkim/>.
Obtain information on peak flow data from the National River Flow Archive (NRFA) in the United Kingdom, either from the Peak Flow Dataset files <https://nrfa.ceh.ac.uk/data/peak-flow-dataset> once these have been downloaded to the user's computer or using the NRFA's API. These files are in a format suitable for direct use in the WINFAP software, hence the name of the package.
This package provides a mutation analysis tool that discovers cancer driver genes with frequent mutations in protein signalling sites such as post-translational modifications (phosphorylation, ubiquitination, etc). The Poisson generalized linear regression model identifies genes where cancer mutations in signalling sites are more frequent than expected from the sequence of the entire gene. Integration of mutations with signalling information helps find new driver genes and propose candidate mechanisms to known drivers.
Racket is a general-purpose programming language in the Scheme family, with a large set of libraries and a compiler based on Chez Scheme. Racket is also a platform for language-oriented programming, from small domain-specific languages to complete language implementations.
The ``minimal Racket'' distribution includes just enough of Racket for you to use raco pkg to install more. Bundled packages, such as the DrRacket IDE, are not included.
Calculates the optimal price of assets (such as airline flight seats, hotel room bookings) whose value becomes zero after a fixed ``expiry date''. Assumes potential customers arrive (possibly in groups) according to a known inhomogeneous Poisson process. Also assumes a known time-varying elasticity of demand (price sensitivity) function. Uses elementary techniques based on ordinary differential equations. Uses the package deSolve to effect the solution of these differential equations.
Colour vision models, colour spaces and colour thresholds. Provides flexibility to build user-defined colour vision models for n number of photoreceptor types.

This started out as a package for file and string manipulation. Since then, the fs and strex packages emerged, offering functionality previously given by this package. Those packages have hence almost pushed filesstrings into extinction. However, it still has a small number of unique, handy file manipulation functions which can be seen in the vignette. One example is a function to remove spaces from all file names in a directory.
The package includes some statistical outlier detection methods for epimutations detection in DNA methylation data. The methods included in the package are MANOVA, Multivariate linear models, isolation forest, robust mahalanobis distance, quantile and beta. The methods compare a case sample with a suspected disease against a reference panel (composed of healthy individuals) to identify epimutations in the given case sample. It also contains functions to annotate and visualize the identified epimutations.
scBubbletree is a quantitative method for the visual exploration of scRNA-seq data, preserving key biological properties such as local and global cell distances and cell density distributions across samples.

Additionally, scBubbletree is user-friendly and integrates seamlessly with popular scRNA-seq analysis tools, facilitating comprehensive and intuitive data interpretation.
Machine learning based package to predict anti-angiogenic peptides using heterogeneous sequence descriptors. AntAngioCOOL exploits five descriptor types of a peptide of interest to do prediction including: pseudo amino acid composition, k-mer composition, k-mer composition (reduced alphabet), physico-chemical profile and atomic profile. According to the obtained results, AntAngioCOOL reached to a satisfactory performance in anti-angiogenic peptide prediction on a benchmark non-redundant independent test dataset.
Models for detecting concreteness in natural language. This package is built in support of Yeomans (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.obhdp.2020.10.008>, which reviews linguistic models of concreteness in several domains. Here, we provide an implementation of the best-performing domain-general model (from Brysbaert et al., (2014) <doi:10.3758/s13428-013-0403-5>) as well as two pre-trained models for the feedback and plan-making domains.

This package provides fast dynamic-programming algorithms in C++'/'Rcpp (with pure R fallbacks) for the exact finite-sample distributions and p-values of Christoffersen (1998) independence (IND) and conditional-coverage (CC) VaR backtests. For completeness, it also provides the exact unconditional-coverage (UC) test following Kupiec (1995) via a closed-form binomial enumeration. See Christoffersen (1998) <doi:10.2307/2527341> and Kupiec (1995) <doi:10.3905/jod.1995.407942>.
