Implementation of a probabilistic method to calculate nicheROVER (_niche_ _r_egion and niche _over_lap) metrics using multidimensional niche indicator data (e.g., stable isotopes, environmental variables, etc.). The niche region is defined as the joint probability density function of the multidimensional niche indicators at a user-defined probability alpha (e.g., 95%). Uncertainty is accounted for in a Bayesian framework, and the method can be extended to three or more indicator dimensions. It provides directional estimates of niche overlap, accounts for species-specific distributions in multivariate niche space, and produces unique and consistent bivariate projections of the multivariate niche region. The article by Swanson et al. (2015) <doi:10.1890/14-0235.1> provides a detailed description of the methodology. See the package vignette for a worked example using fish stable isotope data.

Estimates of coefficients of lasso penalized linear regression and generalized linear models subject to non-negativity constraints on the parameters using multiplicative iterative algorithm. Entire regularization path for a sequence of lambda values can be obtained. Functions are available for creating plots of regularization path, cross validation and estimating coefficients at a given lambda value. There is also provision for obtaining standard error of coefficient estimates.

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>.

The field of immunology benefits from software that can predict which peptide sequences trigger an immune response. NetMHCIIpan is a such a tool: it predicts the binding strength of a short peptide to a Major Histocompatibility Complex class II (MHC-II) molecule. NetMHCIIpan can be used from a web server at <https://services.healthtech.dtu.dk/services/NetMHCIIpan-3.2/> or from the command-line, using a local installation. This package allows to call NetMHCIIpan from R.

Edgelists from dependent or independent samples are used as input. These edgelists are generated from concept maps and summed into two comparable group networks. The networks can be directed or undirected.
