This package provides a framework for the optimization of breeding programs via optimum contribution selection and mate allocation. An easy to use set of function for computation of optimum contributions of selection candidates, and of the population genetic parameters to be optimized. These parameters can be estimated using pedigree or genotype information, and include kinships, kinships at native haplotype segments, and breed composition of crossbred individuals. They are suitable for managing genetic diversity, removing introgressed genetic material, and accelerating genetic gain. Additionally, functions are provided for computing genetic contributions from ancestors, inbreeding coefficients, the native effective size, the native genome equivalent, pedigree completeness, and for preparing and plotting pedigrees. The methods are described in:\n Wellmann, R., and Pfeiffer, I. (2009) <doi:10.1017/S0016672309000202>.\n Wellmann, R., and Bennewitz, J.

Ordination comprises several multivariate exploratory and explanatory techniques with theoretical foundations in geometric data analysis; see Podani (2000, ISBN:90-5782-067-6) for techniques and applications and Le Roux & Rouanet (2005) <doi:10.1007/1-4020-2236-0> for foundations. Greenacre (2010, ISBN:978-84-923846) shows how the most established of these, including principal components analysis, correspondence analysis, multidimensional scaling, factor analysis, and discriminant analysis, rely on eigen-decompositions or singular value decompositions of pre-processed numeric matrix data. These decompositions give rise to a set of shared coordinates along which the row and column elements can be measured. The overlay of their scatterplots on these axes, introduced by Gabriel (1971) <doi:10.1093/biomet/58.3.453>, is called a biplot. ordr provides inspection, extraction, manipulation, and visualization tools for several popular ordination classes supported by a set of recovery methods. It is inspired by and designed to integrate into Tidyverse workflows provided by Wickham et al (2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01686>.

Utilize an orthogonality constrained optimization algorithm of Wen & Yin (2013) <DOI:10.1007/s10107-012-0584-1> to solve a variety of dimension reduction problems in the semiparametric framework, such as Ma & Zhu (2012) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2011.646925>, Ma & Zhu (2013) <DOI:10.1214/12-AOS1072>, Sun, Zhu, Wang & Zeng (2019) <DOI:10.1093/biomet/asy064> and Zhou, Zhu & Zeng (2021) <DOI:10.1093/biomet/asaa087>. The package also implements some existing dimension reduction methods such as hMave by Xia, Zhang, & Xu (2010) <DOI:10.1198/jasa.2009.tm09372> and partial SAVE by Feng, Wen & Zhu (2013) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2012.746065>. It also serves as a general purpose optimization solver for problems with orthogonality constraints, i.e., in Stiefel manifold. Parallel computing for approximating the gradient is enabled through OpenMP'.

Objects and methods to handle and solve the min-sum location problem, also known as Fermat-Weber problem. The min-sum location problem search for a point such that the weighted sum of the distances to the demand points are minimized. See "The Fermat-Weber location problem revisited" by Brimberg, Mathematical Programming, 1, pg. 71-76, 1995. <DOI:10.1007/BF01592245>. General global optimization algorithms are used to solve the problem, along with the adhoc Weiszfeld method, see "Sur le point pour lequel la Somme des distances de n points donnes est minimum", by Weiszfeld, Tohoku Mathematical Journal, First Series, 43, pg. 355-386, 1937 or "On the point for which the sum of the distances to n given points is minimum", by E. Weiszfeld and F. Plastria, Annals of Operations Research, 167, pg. 7-41, 2009. <DOI:10.1007/s10479-008-0352-z>.

The comprehensive knowledge of epigenetic modifications in plants, encompassing histone modifications in regulating gene expression, is not completely ingrained. It is noteworthy that histone deacetylation and histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) play a role in repressing transcription in eukaryotes. In contrast, histone acetylation (H3K9ac) and H3K4me3 have been inevitably linked to the stimulation of gene expression, which significantly influences plant development and plays a role in plant responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. To our knowledge this the first multiclass classifier for predicting histone modification in plants. <doi:10.1186/s12864-019-5489-4>.

This package provides functions to estimate the optimal threshold of diagnostic markers or treatment selection markers. The optimal threshold is the marker value that maximizes the utility of the marker based-strategy (for diagnostic or treatment selection) in a given population. The utility function depends on the type of marker (diagnostic or treatment selection), but always takes into account the preferences of the patients or the physician in the decision process. For estimating the optimal threshold, ones must specify the distributions of the marker in different groups (defined according to the type of marker, diagnostic or treatment selection) and provides data to estimate the parameters of these distributions. Ones must also provide some features of the target populations (disease prevalence or treatment efficacies) as well as the preferences of patients or physicians. The functions rely on Bayesian inference which helps producing several indicators derived from the optimal threshold. See Blangero, Y, Rabilloud, M, Ecochard, R, and Subtil, F (2019) <doi:10.1177/0962280218821394> for the original article that describes the estimation method for treatment selection markers and Subtil, F, and Rabilloud, M (2019) <doi:10.1002/bimj.200900242> for diagnostic markers.
