Simplify the exploratory data analysis process for multiple network data sets with the help of hierarchical clustering, consensus clustering and heatmaps. Multiple network data consists of multiple disjoint networks that have common variables (e.g. ego networks). This package contains the necessary tools for exploring such data, from the data pre-processing stage to the creation of dynamic visualizations.

Statistical methods for whole-trial and time-domain analysis of single cell neural response to multiple stimuli presented simultaneously. The package is based on the paper by C Glynn, ST Tokdar, A Zaman, VC Caruso, JT Mohl, SM Willett, and JM Groh (2021) "Analyzing second order stochasticity of neural spiking under stimuli-bundle exposure", is in press for publication by the Annals of Applied Statistics. A preprint may be found at <arXiv:1911.04387>.

This package implements a method that builds the coefficients of a polynomial model that performs almost equivalently as a given neural network (densely connected). This is achieved using Taylor expansion at the activation functions. The obtained polynomial coefficients can be used to explain features (and their interactions) importance in the neural network, therefore working as a tool for interpretability or eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI). See Morala et al. 2021 <doi:10.1016/j.neunet.2021.04.036>, and 2023 <doi:10.1109/TNNLS.2023.3330328>.

This R package provides a calculation of between-cases AUC estimate, corresponding covariance, and variance estimate in the nested data problem. Also, the package has the function to simulate the nested data. The calculated between-cases AUC estimate is used to evaluate the reader's diagnostic performance in clinical tasks with nested data. For more details on the above methods, please refer to the paper by H Du, S Wen, Y Guo, F Jin, BD Gallas (2022) <doi:10.1177/09622802221111539>.

Addressing crucial research questions often necessitates a small sample size due to factors such as distinctive target populations, rarity of the event under study, time and cost constraints, ethical concerns, or group-level unit of analysis. Many readily available analytic methods, however, do not accommodate small sample sizes, and the choice of the best method can be unclear. The npboottprm package enables the execution of nonparametric bootstrap tests with pooled resampling to help fill this gap. Grounded in the statistical methods for small sample size studies detailed in Dwivedi, Mallawaarachchi, and Alvarado (2017) <doi:10.1002/sim.7263>, the package facilitates a range of statistical tests, encompassing independent t-tests, paired t-tests, and one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) F-tests. The nonparboot() function undertakes essential computations, yielding detailed outputs which include test statistics, effect sizes, confidence intervals, and bootstrap distributions. Further, npboottprm incorporates an interactive shiny web application, nonparboot_app(), offering intuitive, user-friendly data exploration.

We developed a comprehensive tool that helps with visualization and analysis of networks with the same variables across multiple factor levels. The netShiny contains most of the popular network features such as centrality measures, modularity, and other summary statistics (e.g. clustering coefficient). It also contains known tools to look at the (dis)similarities between two networks, such as pairwise distance measures between networks, set operations on the nodes of the networks, distribution of the weights of the edges and a network representing the difference between two correlation matrices. The package netShiny also contains tools to perform bootstrapping and find clusters in networks. See the netShiny manual for more information, documentation and examples.

Nonparametric Failure Time (NFT) Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART): Time-to-event Machine Learning with Heteroskedastic Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (HBART) and Low Information Omnibus (LIO) Dirichlet Process Mixtures (DPM). An NFT BART model is of the form Y = mu + f(x) + sd(x) E where functions f and sd have BART and HBART priors, respectively, while E is a nonparametric error distribution due to a DPM LIO prior hierarchy. See the following for a description of the model at <doi:10.1111/biom.13857>.

Models for non-linear time series analysis and causality detection. The main functionalities of this package consist of an implementation of the classical causality test (C.W.J.Granger 1980) <doi:10.1016/0165-1889(80)90069-X>, and a non-linear version of it based on feed-forward neural networks. This package contains also an implementation of the Transfer Entropy <doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.85.461>, and the continuous Transfer Entropy using an approximation based on the k-nearest neighbors <doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.69.066138>. There are also some other useful tools, like the VARNN (Vector Auto-Regressive Neural Network) prediction model, the Augmented test of stationarity, and the discrete and continuous entropy and mutual information.

Simulate DNA sequences for the node substitution model. In the node substitution model, substitutions accumulate additionally during a speciation event, providing a potential mechanistic explanation for substitution rate variation. This package provides tools to simulate such a process, simulate a reference process with only substitutions along the branches, and provides tools to infer phylogenies from alignments. More information can be found in Janzen (2021) <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syab085>.

We proposed a package for the classification task which uses Negative Binomial distribution within Linear Discriminant Analysis (NBLDA). It is an extension of the PoiClaClu package to Negative Binomial distribution. The classification algorithms are based on the papers Dong et al. (2016, ISSN: 1471-2105) and Witten, DM (2011, ISSN: 1932-6157) for NBLDA and PLDA, respectively. Although PLDA is a sparse algorithm and can be used for variable selection, the algorithm proposed by Dong et al. is not sparse. Therefore, it uses all variables in the classifier. Here, we extend Dong et al.'s algorithm to the sparse case by shrinking overdispersion towards 0 (Yu et al., 2013, ISSN: 1367-4803) and offset parameter towards 1 (as proposed by Witten DM, 2011). We support only the classification task with this version.
