This package provides tools for exchanging pedigree data between the pedsuite packages and the Familias software for forensic kinship computations (Egeland et al. (2000) <doi:10.1016/s0379-0738(00)00147-x>). These functions were split out from the forrel package to streamline maintenance and provide a lightweight alternative for packages otherwise independent of forrel'.

This package creates and manages a provenance graph corresponding to the provenance created by the rdtLite package, which collects provenance from R scripts. rdtLite is available on CRAN. The provenance format is an extension of the W3C PROV JSON format (<https://www.w3.org/Submission/2013/SUBM-prov-json-20130424/>). The extended JSON provenance format is described in <https://github.com/End-to-end-provenance/ExtendedProvJson>.

Toolkit for fitting point process models with sequences of LASSO penalties ("regularisation paths"), as described in Renner, I.W. and Warton, D.I. (2013) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2012.01824.x>. Regularisation paths of Poisson point process models or area-interaction models can be fitted with LASSO, adaptive LASSO or elastic net penalties. A number of criteria are available to judge the bias-variance tradeoff.

There are three sets of functions. The first produces basic properties of a graph and generates samples from multinomial distributions to facilitate the simulation functions (they maybe used for other purposes as well). The second provides various simulation functions for a Potts model in Potts, R. B. (1952) <doi:10.1017/S0305004100027419>. The third currently includes only one function which computes the normalizing constant of a Potts model based on simulation results.

This package provides a high performance package implementing random effects and/or sample selection models for panel count data. The details of the models are discussed in Peng and Van den Bulte (2023) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.2702053>.

This utility eases the debugging of literate documents ('noweb files) by patching the synchronization information (the .synctex(.gz) file) produced by pdflatex with concordance information produced by Sweave or knitr and Sweave or knitr ; this allows for bilateral communication between a text editor (visualizing the noweb source) and a viewer (visualizing the resultant PDF'), thus bypassing the intermediate TeX file.

This package provides a set of tools that enables efficient estimation of penalized Poisson Pseudo Maximum Likelihood regressions, using lasso or ridge penalties, for models that feature one or more sets of high-dimensional fixed effects. The methodology is based on Breinlich, Corradi, Rocha, Ruta, Santos Silva, and Zylkin (2021) <http://hdl.handle.net/10986/35451> and takes advantage of the method of alternating projections of Gaure (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2013.03.024> for dealing with HDFE, as well as the coordinate descent algorithm of Friedman, Hastie and Tibshirani (2010) <doi:10.18637/jss.v033.i01> for fitting lasso regressions. The package is also able to carry out cross-validation and to implement the plugin lasso of Belloni, Chernozhukov, Hansen and Kozbur (2016) <doi:10.1080/07350015.2015.1102733>.

This package provides a method for the quantitative prediction with much predictors. This package provides functions to construct the quantitative prediction model with less overfitting and robust to noise.

This package contains three simulation functions for implementing the entire Phase 123 trial and the separate Eff-Tox and Phase 3 portions of the trial, which may be beneficial for use on clusters. The functions AssignEffTox() and RandomizeEffTox() assign doses to patient cohorts during phase 12 and Reoptimize() determines the optimal dose to continue with during Phase 3. The functions ReturnMeansAgent() and ReturnMeanControl() gives the true mean survival for the agent doses and control and ReturnOCS() gives the operating characteristics of the design.

This package provides a set of functions designed to calculate the standardised precipitation and standardised precipitation evapotranspiration indices using NASA POWER data as described in Blain et al. (2023) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.4442843>. These indices are calculated using a reference data source. The functions verify if the indices estimates meet the assumption of normality and how well NASA POWER estimates represent real-world data. Indices are calculated in a routine mode. Potential evapotranspiration amounts and the difference between rainfall and potential evapotranspiration are also calculated. The functions adopt a basic time scale that splits each month into four periods. Days 1 to 7, days 8 to 14, days 15 to 21, and days 22 to 28, 29, 30, or 31, where TS=4 corresponds to a 1-month length moving window (calculated 4 times per month) and TS=48 corresponds to a 12-month length moving window (calculated 4 times per month).

This package implements a partial linear semiparametric mixed-effects model (PLSMM) featuring a random intercept and applies a lasso penalty to both the fixed effects and the coefficients associated with the nonlinear function. The model also accommodates interactions between the nonlinear function and a grouping variable, allowing for the capture of group-specific nonlinearities. Nonlinear functions are modeled using a set of bases functions. Estimation is conducted using a penalized Expectation-Maximization algorithm, and the package offers flexibility in choosing between various information criteria for model selection. Post-selection inference is carried out using a debiasing method, while inference on the nonlinear functions employs a bootstrap approach.

This package provides a quadratic time dynamic programming algorithm can be used to compute an approximate solution to the problem of finding the most likely changepoints with respect to the Poisson likelihood, subject to a constraint on the number of segments, and the changes which must alternate: up, down, up, down, etc. For more info read <http://proceedings.mlr.press/v37/hocking15.html> "PeakSeg: constrained optimal segmentation and supervised penalty learning for peak detection in count data" by TD Hocking et al, proceedings of ICML2015.

Includes a collection of functions presented in "Measuring stability in ecological systems without static equilibria" by Clark et al. (2022) <doi:10.1002/ecs2.4328> in Ecosphere. These can be used to estimate the parameters of a stochastic state space model (i.e. a model where a time series is observed with error). The goal of this package is to estimate the variability around a deterministic process, both in terms of observation error - i.e. variability due to imperfect observations that does not influence system state - and in terms of process noise - i.e. stochastic variation in the actual state of the process. Unlike classical methods for estimating variability, this package does not necessarily assume that the deterministic state is fixed (i.e. a fixed-point equilibrium), meaning that variability around a dynamic trajectory can be estimated (e.g. stochastic fluctuations during predator-prey dynamics).

Pool dilution is a isotope tracer technique wherein a biogeochemical pool is artifically enriched with its heavy isotopologue and the gross productive and consumptive fluxes of that pool are quantified by the change in pool size and isotopic composition over time. This package calculates gross production and consumption rates from closed-system isotopic pool dilution time series data. Pool size concentrations and heavy isotope (e.g., 15N) content are measured over time and the model optimizes production rate (P) and the first order rate constant (k) by minimizing error in the model-predicted total pool size, as well as the isotopic signature. The model optimizes rates by weighting information against the signal:noise ratio of concentration and heavy- isotope signatures using measurement precision as well as the magnitude of change over time. The calculations used here are based on von Fischer and Hedin (2002) <doi:10.1029/2001GB001448> with some modifications.
