The pwrss R package provides flexible and comprehensive functions for statistical power and minimum required sample size calculations across a wide range of commonly used hypothesis tests in psychological, biomedical, and social sciences.

Pharmacokinetics is the study of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. The pharmacokinetics model explains that how the drug concentration change as the drug moves through the different compartments of the body. For pharmacokinetic modeling and analysis, it is essential to understand the basic pharmacokinetic parameters. All parameters are considered, but only some of parameters are used in the model. Therefore, we need to convert the estimated parameters to the other parameters after fitting the specific pharmacokinetic model. This package is developed to help this converting work. For more detailed explanation of pharmacokinetic parameters, see "Gabrielsson and Weiner" (2007), "ISBN-10: 9197651001"; "Benet and Zia-Amirhosseini" (1995) <DOI: 10.1177/019262339502300203>; "Mould and Upton" (2012) <DOI: 10.1038/psp.2012.4>; "Mould and Upton" (2013) <DOI: 10.1038/psp.2013.14>.

This package provides tools to compute unbiased pleiotropic heritability estimates of complex diseases from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) summary statistics. We estimate pleiotropic heritability from GWAS summary statistics by estimating the proportion of variance explained from an estimated genetic correlation matrix (Bulik-Sullivan et al. 2015 <doi:10.1038/ng.3406>) and employing a Monte-Carlo bias correction procedure to account for sampling noise in genetic correlation estimates.

Computes predicted probabilities and marginal effects for binary & ordinal logit and probit, (partial) generalized ordinal & multinomial logit models estimated with the glm(), clm() (in the ordinal package), and vglm() (in the VGAM package) functions.

This package implements the American Heart Association Predicting Risk of cardiovascular disease EVENTs (PREVENT) equations from Khan SS, Matsushita K, Sang Y, and colleagues (2023) <doi:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.067626>, with optional comparison with their de facto predecessor, the Pooled Cohort Equations from the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology (2013) <doi:10.1161/01.cir.0000437741.48606.98> and the revision to the Pooled Cohort Equations from Yadlowsky and colleagues (2018) <doi:10.7326/M17-3011>.

Build your own universe of packages similar to the tidyverse package <https://tidyverse.org/> with this meta-package creator. Create a package-verse, or meta package, by supplying a custom name for the collection of packages and the vector of desired package names to includeâ and optionally supply a destination directory, an indicator of whether to keep the created package directory, and/or a vector of verbs implement via the usethis <http://usethis.r-lib.org/> package.

Offers an interactive RStudio gadget interface for communicating with OpenAI large language models (e.g., gpt-5', gpt-5-mini', gpt-5-nano') (<https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference>). Enables users to conduct multiple chat conversations simultaneously in separate tabs. Supports uploading local files (R, PDF, DOCX) to provide context for the models. Allows per-conversation configuration of system messages (where supported by the model). API interactions via the httr package are performed asynchronously using promises and future to avoid blocking the R console. Useful for tasks like code generation, text summarization, and document analysis directly within the RStudio environment. Requires an OpenAI API key set as an environment variable.

Computing Average and TPX Power under various BHFDR type sequential procedures. All of these procedures involve control of some summary of the distribution of the FDP, e.g. the proportion of discoveries which are false in a given experiment. The most widely known of these, the BH-FDR procedure, controls the FDR which is the mean of the FDP. A lesser known procedure, due to Lehmann and Romano, controls the FDX, or probability that the FDP exceeds a user provided threshold. This is less conservative than FWE control procedures but much more conservative than the BH-FDR proceudre. This package and the references supporting it introduce a new procedure for controlling the FDX which we call the BH-FDX procedure. This procedure iteratively identifies, given alpha and lower threshold delta, an alpha* less than alpha at which BH-FDR guarantees FDX control. This uses asymptotic approximation and is only slightly more conservative than the BH-FDR procedure. Likewise, we can think of the power in multiple testing experiments in terms of a summary of the distribution of the True Positive Proportion (TPP), the portion of tests truly non-null distributed that are called significant. The package will compute power, sample size or any other missing parameter required for power defined as (i) the mean of the TPP (average power) or (ii) the probability that the TPP exceeds a given value, lambda, (TPX power) via asymptotic approximation. All supplied theoretical results are also obtainable via simulation. The suggested approach is to narrow in on a design via the theoretical approaches and then make final adjustments/verify the results by simulation. The theoretical results are described in Izmirlian, G (2020) Statistics and Probability letters, "<doi:10.1016/j.spl.2020.108713>", and an applied paper describing the methodology with a simulation study is in preparation. See citation("pwrFDR").

This package provides a tool which aims to help evaluate the effect of external borrowing using an integrated approach described in Lewis et al., (2019) <doi:10.1080/19466315.2018.1497533> that combines propensity score and Bayesian dynamic borrowing methods.

Price volatility refers to the degree of variation in series over a certain period of time. This volatility is especially noticeable in agricultural commodities, adding uncertainty for farmers, traders, and others in the agricultural supply chain. Commonly and popularly used four volatility models viz, GARCH, Glosten Jagannatan Runkle-GARCH (GJR-GARCH) model, exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) model and Multiplicative Error Model (MEM) are selected and implemented. PWAVE, weighted ensemble model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed to combine the forecast obtained from all the candidate models. This package has been developed using algorithm of Paul et al. <doi:10.1007/s40009-023-01218-x> and Yeasin and Paul (2024) <doi:10.1007/s11227-023-05542-3>.

Helps you determine the analysis window to use when analyzing densely-sampled time-series data, such as EEG data, using permutation testing (Maris & Oostenveld, 2007) <doi:10.1016/j.jneumeth.2007.03.024>. These permutation tests can help identify the timepoints where significance of an effect begins and ends, and the results can be plotted in various types of heatmap for reporting. Mixed-effects models are supported using an implementation of the approach by Lee & Braun (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2011.01675.x>.

This package provides a suite of functions that fit models that use PPM type priors for partitions. Models include hierarchical Gaussian and probit ordinal models with a (covariate dependent) PPM. If a covariate dependent product partition model is selected, then all the options detailed in Page, G.L.; Quintana, F.A. (2018) <doi:10.1007/s11222-017-9777-z> are available. If covariate values are missing, then the approach detailed in Page, G.L.; Quintana, F.A.; Mueller, P (2020) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2021.1999824> is employed. Also included in the package is a function that fits a Gaussian likelihood spatial product partition model that is detailed in Page, G.L.; Quintana, F.A. (2016) <doi:10.1214/15-BA971>, and multivariate PPM change point models that are detailed in Quinlan, J.J.; Page, G.L.; Castro, L.M. (2023) <doi:10.1214/22-BA1344>. In addition, a function that fits a univariate or bivariate functional data model that employs a PPM or a PPMx to cluster curves based on B-spline coefficients is provided.

This package implements our Bayesian phase I repeated measurement design that accounts for multidimensional toxicity endpoints from multiple treatment cycles. The package also provides a novel design to account for both multidimensional toxicity endpoints and early-stage efficacy endpoints in the phase I design. For both designs, functions are provided to recommend the next dosage selection based on the data collected in the available patient cohorts and to simulate trial characteristics given design parameters.

The use of overparameterization is proposed with combinatorial analysis to test a broader spectrum of possible ARIMA models. In the selection of ARIMA models, the most traditional methods such as correlograms or others, do not usually cover many alternatives to define the number of coefficients to be estimated in the model, which represents an estimation method that is not the best. The popstudy package contains several tools for statistical analysis in demography and time series based in Shryock research (Shryock et. al. (1980) <https://books.google.co.cr/books?id=8Oo6AQAAMAAJ>).

The Penn World Table 10.x (<https://www.rug.nl/ggdc/productivity/pwt/>) provides information on relative levels of income, output, input, and productivity for 183 countries between 1950 and 2019.

Bayesian estimation and analysis methods for Probit Unfolding Models (PUMs), a novel class of scaling models designed for binary preference data. These models allow for both monotonic and non-monotonic response functions. The package supports Bayesian inference for both static and dynamic PUMs using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms with minimal or no tuning. Key functionalities include posterior sampling, hyperparameter selection, data preprocessing, model fit evaluation, and visualization. The methods are particularly suited to analyzing voting data, such as from the U.S. Congress or Supreme Court, but can also be applied in other contexts where non-monotonic responses are expected. For methodological details, see Shi et al. (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2504.00423>.
