Robust estimation methods for the mean vector, scatter matrix, and covariance matrix (if it exists) from data (possibly containing NAs) under multivariate heavy-tailed distributions such as angular Gaussian (via Tyler's method), Cauchy, and Student's t distributions. Additionally, a factor model structure can be specified for the covariance matrix. The latest revision also includes the multivariate skewed t distribution. The package is based on the papers: Sun, Babu, and Palomar (2014); Sun, Babu, and Palomar (2015); Liu and Rubin (1995); Zhou, Liu, Kumar, and Palomar (2019); Pascal, Ollila, and Palomar (2021).

Neural networks are applied to create a density value function which approximates density values for a data source. The trained neural network is analyzed for different levels. For each level metric subspaces with density values above a level are determined. The obtained set of metric subspaces and the trained neural network are assembled into a data model. A prerequisite is the definition of a data source, the generation of generative data and the calculation of density values. These tasks are executed using package ganGenerativeData <https://cran.r-project.org/package=ganGenerativeData>.

This function predicts item response probabilities and item responses using the item-focused tree model. The item-focused tree model combines logistic regression with recursive partitioning to detect Differential Item Functioning in dichotomous items. The model applies partitioning rules to the data, splitting it into homogeneous subgroups, and uses logistic regression within each subgroup to explain the data. Differential Item Functioning detection is achieved by examining potential group differences in item response patterns. This method is useful for understanding how different predictors, such as demographic or psychological factors, influence item responses across subgroups.

Implemented are the one-sided and two-sided multiple-direction logrank test for two-sample right censored data. In addition to the statistics p-values are calculated: 1. For the one-sided testing problem one p-value based on a wild bootstrap approach is determined. 2. In the two-sided case one p-value based on a chi-squared approximation and a second p-values based on a permutation approach are calculated. Ditzhaus, M. and Friedrich, S. (2018) <arXiv:1807.05504>.

This package provides infrastructure to store and manage all aspects related to a complete proteomics or metabolomics mass spectrometry (MS) experiment. The MsExperiment package provides light-weight and flexible containers for MS experiments building on the new MS infrastructure provided by the Spectra, QFeatures and related packages. Along with raw data representations, links to original data files and sample annotations, additional metadata or annotations can also be stored within the MsExperiment container. To guarantee maximum flexibility only minimal constraints are put on the type and content of the data within the containers.

Uses a calibrated model fusion approach to optimally combine multiple surrogate markers. Specifically, two initial estimates of optimal composite scores of the markers are obtained; the optimal calibrated combination of the two estimated scores is then constructed which ensures both validity of the final combined score and optimality with respect to the proportion of treatment effect explained (PTE) by the final combined score. The primary function, pte.estimate.multiple(), estimates the PTE of the identified combination of multiple surrogate markers. Details are described in Wang et al (2022) <doi:10.1111/biom.13677>.

Manages comparison of MCMC performance metrics from multiple MCMC algorithms. These may come from different MCMC configurations using the nimble package or from other packages. Plug-ins for JAGS via rjags and Stan via rstan are provided. It is possible to write plug-ins for other packages. Performance metrics are held in an MCMCresult class along with samples and timing data. It is easy to apply new performance metrics. Reports are generated as html pages with figures comparing sets of runs. It is possible to configure the html pages, including providing new figure components.

Biclusters are submatrices in the data matrix which satisfy certain conditions of homogeneity. Package contains functions for generating robust biclusters with respect to the initialization parameters for a given bicluster solution contained in a bicluster set in data, the procedure is also known as ensemble biclustering. The set of biclusters is evaluated based on the similarity of its elements (the overlap), and afterwards the hierarchical tree is constructed to obtain cut-off points for the classes of robust biclusters. The result is a number of robust (or super) biclusters with none or low overlap.

API client for ClimMob', an open source software for decentralized large-N trials with the tricot approach <https://climmob.net/>. Developed by van Etten et al. (2019) <doi:10.1017/S0014479716000739>, it turns the research paradigm on its head; instead of a few researchers designing complicated trials to compare several technologies in search of the best solutions for the target environment, it enables many participants to carry out reasonably simple experiments that taken together can offer even more information. ClimMobTools enables project managers to deep explore and analyse their ClimMob data in R.

This package provides a hybrid of the K-means algorithm and a Majorization-Minimization method to introduce a robust clustering. The reference paper is: Julien Mairal, (2015) <doi:10.1137/140957639>. The two most important functions in package MajMinKmeans are cluster_km() and cluster_MajKm(). Cluster_km() clusters data without Majorization-Minimization and cluster_MajKm() clusters data with Majorization-Minimization method. Both of these functions calculate the sum of squares (SS) of clustering. Another useful function is MajMinOptim(), which helps to find the optimum values of the Majorization-Minimization estimator.

The package is designed to be flexible and easily integrated into data analysis workflows, providing reliable tools for evaluating distances in multidimensional contexts.

Using a computationally efficient method, the package can be used to find the corrected coverage estimate of a credible set of putative causal variants from Bayesian genetic fine-mapping. The package can also be used to obtain a corrected credible set if required; that is, the smallest set of variants required such that the corrected coverage estimate of the resultant credible set is within some user defined accuracy of the desired coverage.

Simulates stochastic hybrid models for transmission of infectious diseases in dynamic networks. It is a metapopulation model in which each node in the network is a sub-population and disease spreads within nodes and among them, combining two approaches: stochastic simulation algorithm (<doi:10.1146/annurev.physchem.58.032806.104637>) and individual-based approach, respectively. Equations that models spread within nodes are customizable and there are two link types among nodes: migration and influence (commuting). More information in Fernando S. Marques, Jose H. H. Grisi-Filho, Marcos Amaku et al. (2020) <doi:10.18637/jss.v094.i06>.

Frequentist and Bayesian linear regression for large data sets. Useful when the data does not fit into memory (for both frequentist and Bayesian regression), to make running time manageable (mainly for Bayesian regression), and to reduce the total running time because of reduced or less severe memory-spillover into the virtual memory. This is an implementation of Merge & Reduce for linear regression as described in Geppert, L.N., Ickstadt, K., Munteanu, A., & Sohler, C. (2020). Streaming statistical models via Merge & Reduce'. International Journal of Data Science and Analytics, 1-17, <doi:10.1007/s41060-020-00226-0>.

This package provides basic functions that support an implementation of multi-profile case (Case 3) best-worst scaling (BWS). Case 3 BWS is a question-based survey method to elicit people's preferences for attribute levels. Case 3 BWS constructs various combinations of attribute levels (profiles) and then asks respondents to select the best and worst profiles in each choice set. A main function creates a dataset for the analysis from the choice sets and the responses to the questions. For details on Case 3 BWS, refer to Louviere et al. (2015) <doi:10.1017/CBO9781107337855>.
