Extends the quadprog package to solve quadratic programs with absolute value constraints and absolute values in the objective function.

This package implements the Quantile Composite-based Path Modeling approach (Davino and Vinzi, 2016 <doi:10.1007/s11634-015-0231-9>; Dolce et al., 2021 <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00469-0>). The method complements the traditional PLS Path Modeling approach, analyzing the entire distribution of outcome variables and, therefore, overcoming the classical exploration of only average effects. It exploits quantile regression to investigate changes in the relationships among constructs and between constructs and observed variables.

Quasi-Cauchy quantile regression, proposed by de Oliveira, Ospina, Leiva, Figueroa-Zuniga and Castro (2023) <doi:10.3390/fractalfract7090667>. This regression model is useful for the case where you want to model data of a nature limited to the intervals [0,1], (0,1], [0,1) or (0,1) and you want to use a quantile approach.

Option pricing (financial derivatives) techniques mainly following textbook Options, Futures and Other Derivatives', 9ed by John C.Hull, 2014. Prentice Hall. Implementations are via binomial tree option model (BOPM), Black-Scholes model, Monte Carlo simulations, etc. This package is a result of Quantitative Financial Risk Management course (STAT 449 and STAT 649) at Rice University, Houston, TX, USA, taught by Oleg Melnikov, statistics PhD student, as of Spring 2015.

This package performs tuning of clustering models, methods and algorithms including the problem of determining an appropriate number of clusters. Validation of cluster analysis results is performed via quadratic scoring using resampling methods, as in Coraggio, L. and Coretto, P. (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2023.105181>.

Functionality to read, recode, and transcode data as used in quantitative language comparison, specifically to deal with multilingual orthographic variation (Moran & Cysouw (2018) <doi:10.5281/zenodo.1296780>) and with the recoding of nominal data.

Helps to perform linear regression analysis by reducing manual effort. Reduces the independent variables based on specified p-value and Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) level.

This package provides functions are provided that implement the use of the Fieller's formula methodology, for calculating a confidence interval for a ratio of (commonly, correlated) means. See Fieller (1954) <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1954.tb00159.x>. Here, the application of primary interest is to studies of insect mortality response to increasing doses of a fumigant, or, e.g., to time in coolstorage. The formula is used to calculate a confidence interval for the dose or time required to achieve a specified mortality proportion, commonly 0.5 or 0.99. Vignettes demonstrate link functions that may be considered, checks on fitted models, and alternative choices of error family. Note in particular the betabinomial error family. See also Maindonald, Waddell, and Petry (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0925-5214(01)00082-5>.

This package provides tools for (automated and manual) quality control of the results of Epigenome-Wide Association Studies.

Offers a suite of functions to prepare questionnaire data for analysis (perhaps other types of data as well). By data preparation, I mean data analytic tasks to get your raw data ready for statistical modeling (e.g., regression). There are functions to investigate missing data, reshape data, validate responses, recode variables, score questionnaires, center variables, aggregate by groups, shift scores (i.e., leads or lags), etc. It provides functions for both single level and multilevel (i.e., grouped) data. With a few exceptions (e.g., ncases()), functions without an "s" at the end of their primary word (e.g., center_by()) act on atomic vectors, while functions with an "s" at the end of their primary word (e.g., centers_by()) act on multiple columns of a data.frame.

The main goal is to make descriptive evaluations easier to create bigger and more complex outputs in less time with less code. Introducing format containers with multilabels <https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/v_067/proc/p06ciqes4eaqo6n0zyqtz9p21nfb.htm>, a more powerful summarise which is capable to output every possible combination of the provided grouping variables in one go <https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/v_067/proc/p0jvbbqkt0gs2cn1lo4zndbqs1pe.htm>, tabulation functions which can create any table in different styles <https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/pgmsascdc/v_067/proc/n1ql5xnu0k3kdtn11gwa5hc7u435.htm> and other more readable functions. The code is optimized to work fast even with datasets of over a million observations.

G-computation for a set of time-fixed exposures with quantile-based basis functions, possibly under linearity and homogeneity assumptions. This approach estimates a regression line corresponding to the expected change in the outcome (on the link basis) given a simultaneous increase in the quantile-based category for all exposures. Works with continuous, binary, and right-censored time-to-event outcomes. Reference: Alexander P. Keil, Jessie P. Buckley, Katie M. OBrien, Kelly K. Ferguson, Shanshan Zhao, and Alexandra J. White (2019) A quantile-based g-computation approach to addressing the effects of exposure mixtures; <doi:10.1289/EHP5838>.

This package provides a no-frills open-source solution for designing plot labels affixed with QR codes. It features EasyQrlabelr', a BrAPI-compliant shiny app that simplifies the process of plot label design for non-R users. It builds on the methods described by Wu et al. (2020) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13405>.

This package provides functions to convert data structures among the qtl2', qtl', and DOQTL packages for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL).

This package provides statistical components, tables, and graphs that are useful in Quarto and RMarkdown reports and that produce Quarto elements for special formatting such as tabs and marginal notes and graphs. Some of the functions produce entire report sections with tabs, e.g., the missing data report created by missChk(). Functions for inserting variables and tables inside graphviz and mermaid diagrams are included, and so are special clinical trial graphics for adverse event reporting.

Values different types of assets and calibrates discount curves for quantitative financial analysis. It covers fixed coupon assets, floating note assets, interest and cross currency swaps with different payment frequencies. Enables the calibration of spot, instantaneous forward and basis curves, making it a powerful tool for accurate and flexible bond valuation and curve generation. The valuation and calibration techniques presented here are consistent with industry standards and incorporates author's own calculations. Tuckman, B., Serrat, A. (2022, ISBN: 978-1-119-83555-4).

Uses the fst package to store genotype probabilities on disk for the qtl2 package. These genotype probabilities are a central data object for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL), but they can be quite large. The facilities in this package enable the genotype probabilities to be stored on disk, leading to reduced memory usage with only a modest increase in computation time.

This package provides a collection of functions for constructing large pairwised comparisons and rating them using Elo rating system with supporting parallel processing. The method of random sample pairs is based on Reservoir Sampling proposed by JVitter (1985) <doi:10.1145/3147.3165>.

For fitting N-mixture models using either FFT or asymptotic approaches. FFT N-mixture models extend the work of Cowen et al. (2017) <doi:10.1111/biom.12701>.

The FFT models are derived and described in "Parker, M.R.P., Elliott, L., Cowen, L.L.E. (2022). Computational efficiency and precision for replicated-count and batch-marked hidden population models [Manuscript in preparation]. Department of Statistics and Actuarial Sciences, Simon Fraser University.". The asymptotic models are derived and described in: "Parker, M.R.P., Elliott, L., Cowen, L.L.E., Cao, J. (2022).
