Subgroup analyses are routinely performed in clinical trial analyses. From a methodological perspective, two key issues of subgroup analyses are multiplicity (even if only predefined subgroups are investigated) and the low sample sizes of subgroups which lead to highly variable estimates, see e.g. Yusuf et al (1991) <doi:10.1001/jama.1991.03470010097038>. This package implements subgroup estimates based on Bayesian shrinkage priors, see Carvalho et al (2019) <https://proceedings.mlr.press/v5/carvalho09a.html>. In addition, estimates based on penalized likelihood inference are available, based on Simon et al (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v039.i05>. The corresponding shrinkage based forest plots address the aforementioned issues and can complement standard forest plots in practical clinical trial analyses.

This R package provides a single procedure guix.install(), which allows users to install R packages via Guix right from within their running R session. If the requested R package does not exist in Guix at this time, the package and all its missing dependencies will be imported recursively and the generated package definitions will be written to ~/.Rguix/packages.scm. This record of imported packages can be used later to reproduce the environment, and to add the packages in question to a proper Guix channel (or Guix itself). guix.install() not only supports installing packages from CRAN, but also from Bioconductor or even arbitrary git or mercurial repositories, replacing the need for installation via devtools.

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>. A tutorial for the package is available at <https://www.laylaparast.com/cmfsurrogate> and a Shiny App is available at <https://parastlab.shinyapps.io/CMFsurrogateApp/>.

Implementations of several multiple testing procedures that control the family-wise error rate (FWER) designed specifically for discrete tests. Included are discrete adaptations of the Bonferroni, Holm, Hochberg and Å idák procedures as described in the papers Döhler (2010) "Validation of credit default probabilities using multiple-testing procedures" <doi:10.21314/JRMV.2010.062> and Zhu & Guo (2019) "Family-Wise Error Rate Controlling Procedures for Discrete Data" <doi:10.1080/19466315.2019.1654912>. The main procedures of this package take as input the results of a test procedure from package DiscreteTests or a set of observed p-values and their discrete support under their nulls. A shortcut function to apply discrete procedures directly to data is also provided.

Differential exon usage test for RNA-Seq data via an empirical Bayes shrinkage method for the dispersion parameter the utilizes inclusion-exclusion data to analyze the propensity to skip an exon across groups. The input data consists of two matrices where each row represents an exon and the columns represent the biological samples. The first matrix is the count of the number of reads expressing the exon for each sample. The second matrix is the count of the number of reads that either express the exon or explicitly skip the exon across the samples, a.k.a. the total count matrix. Dividing the two matrices yields proportions representing the propensity to express the exon versus skipping the exon for each sample.

Presents two methods to estimate the parameters mu', sigma', and tau of an ex-Gaussian distribution. Those methods are Quantile Maximization Likelihood Estimation ('QMLE') and Bayesian. The QMLE method allows a choice between three different estimation algorithms for these parameters : neldermead ('NEMD'), fminsearch ('FMIN'), and nlminb ('NLMI'). For more details about the methods you can refer at the following list: Brown, S., & Heathcote, A. (2003) <doi:10.3758/BF03195527>; McCormack, P. D., & Wright, N. M. (1964) <doi:10.1037/h0083285>; Van Zandt, T. (2000) <doi:10.3758/BF03214357>; El Haj, A., Slaoui, Y., Solier, C., & Perret, C. (2021) <doi:10.19139/soic-2310-5070-1251>; Gilks, W. R., Best, N. G., & Tan, K. K. C. (1995) <doi:10.2307/2986138>.

This package provides a simple to use, intuitive, and extensible interface to several stochastic simulation algorithms for generating simulated trajectories of finite population continuous-time model. Currently it implements Gillespie's exact stochastic simulation algorithm (Direct method) and several approximate methods (Explicit tau-leap, Binomial tau-leap, and Optimized tau-leap). The package also contains a library of template models that can be run as demo models and can easily be customized and extended. Currently the following models are included, Decaying-Dimerization reaction set, linear chain system, logistic growth model, Lotka predator-prey model, Rosenzweig-MacArthur predator-prey model, Kermack-McKendrick SIR model, and a metapopulation SIRS model. Pineda-Krch et al. (2008) <doi:10.18637/jss.v025.i12>.

This package provides a fast C++ implementation of the design-based, Diffusion Decision Model (DDM) and the Linear Ballistic Accumulation (LBA) model. It enables the user to optimise the choice response time model by connecting with the Differential Evolution Markov Chain Monte Carlo (DE-MCMC) sampler implemented in the ggdmc package. The package fuses the hierarchical modelling, Bayesian inference, choice response time models and factorial designs, allowing users to build their own design-based models. For more information on the underlying models, see the works by Voss, Rothermund, and Voss (2004) <doi:10.3758/BF03196893>, Ratcliff and McKoon (2008) <doi:10.1162/neco.2008.12-06-420>, and Brown and Heathcote (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.cogpsych.2007.12.002>.

An integrative toolbox of word embedding research that provides: (1) a collection of pre-trained static word vectors in the .RData compressed format <https://psychbruce.github.io/WordVector_RData.pdf>; (2) a group of functions to process, analyze, and visualize word vectors; (3) a range of tests to examine conceptual associations, including the Word Embedding Association Test <doi:10.1126/science.aal4230> and the Relative Norm Distance <doi:10.1073/pnas.1720347115>, with permutation test of significance; and (4) a set of training methods to locally train (static) word vectors from text corpora, including Word2Vec <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1301.3781>, GloVe <doi:10.3115/v1/D14-1162>, and FastText <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1607.04606>.

This package provides a web-based shiny interface for the StepReg package enables stepwise regression analysis across linear, generalized linear (including logistic, Poisson, Gamma, and negative binomial), and Cox models. It supports forward, backward, bidirectional, and best-subset selection under a range of criteria. The package also supports stepwise regression to multivariate settings, allowing multiple dependent variables to be modeled simultaneously. Users can explore and combine multiple selection strategies and criteria to optimize model selection. For enhanced robustness, the package offers optional randomized forward selection to reduce overfitting, and a data-splitting workflow for more reliable post-selection inference. Additional features include logging and visualization of the selection process, as well as the ability to export results in common formats.

This tool fits a non-parametric Bayesian model called a "hierarchically coupled mixture model with local dependence (HCMM-LD)" to the original microdata in order to generate synthetic microdata for privacy protection. The non-parametric feature of the adopted model is useful for capturing the joint distribution of the original input data in a highly flexible manner, leading to the generation of synthetic data whose distributional features are similar to that of the input data. The package allows the original input data to have missing values and impute them with the posterior predictive distribution, so no missing values exist in the synthetic data output. The method builds on the work of Murray and Reiter (2016) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2016.1174132>.

Facilitates the analysis of SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) and silicodart (presence/absence) data. dartR.popgen provides a suit of functions to analyse such data in a population genetics context. It provides several functions to calculate population genetic metrics and to study population structure. Quite a few functions need additional software to be able to run (gl.run.structure(), gl.blast(), gl.LDNe()). You find detailed description in the help pages how to download and link the packages so the function can run the software. dartR.popgen is part of the the dartRverse suit of packages. Gruber et al. (2018) <doi:10.1111/1755-0998.12745>. Mijangos et al. (2022) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13918>.

Calculates commonly used indicators for empirical international trade analysis from user-supplied data. Measures include trade openness, bilateral export and import intensity, the Herfindahl-Hirschman concentration index, normalized and entropy-based diversification, structural diversification relative to a benchmark, export similarity, trade complementarity, revealed comparative advantage, and intra-industry trade. Functions are vectorized where appropriate, validate economically meaningful inputs, and require no external data service. The definition of trade openness follows the World Bank indicator metadata <https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/NE.TRD.GNFS.ZS>. Methodological background for several trade indicators is provided by the World Bank's World Integrated Trade Solution <https://wits.worldbank.org/wits/wits/witshelp/Content/Utilities/e1.trade_indicators.htm> and the World Trade Organization (2012, ISBN:9789287038128).

This package provides a function that implements the acceptance-rejection method in an optimized manner to generate pseudo-random observations for discrete or continuous random variables. Proposed by von Neumann J. (1951), <https://mcnp.lanl.gov/pdf_files/>, the function is optimized to work in parallel on Unix-based operating systems and performs well on Windows systems. The acceptance-rejection method implemented optimizes the probability of generating observations from the desired random variable, by simply providing the probability function or probability density function, in the discrete and continuous cases, respectively. Implementation is based on references CASELLA, George at al. (2004) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/4356322>, NEAL, Radford M. (2003) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/3448413> and Bishop, Christopher M. (2006, ISBN: 978-0387310732).

Estimates nonlinear causal dose-response functions for continuous treatments using spline-based methods under standard causal assumptions (unconfoundedness / ignorability). Implements three identification strategies: Inverse Probability Weighting (IPW) via the generalised propensity score (GPS), G-computation (outcome regression), and a doubly-robust combination. Natural cubic splines and B-splines are supported for both the exposure-response curve f(T) and the propensity nuisance model. Pointwise confidence bands are obtained via the sandwich estimator or nonparametric bootstrap. Also provides fragility diagnostics including pointwise curvature-based fragility, uncertainty-normalised fragility, and regional integration over user-defined treatment intervals. Builds on the framework of Hirano and Imbens (2004) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0262.2004.00481.x> for continuous treatments and extends it to fully nonparametric spline estimation.

This package provides functions to access data from public RESTful APIs including Nager.Date', World Bank API', and REST Countries API', retrieving real-time or historical data related to Indonesia, such as holidays, economic indicators, and international demographic and geopolitical indicators. The package also includes a curated collection of open datasets focused on Indonesia, covering topics such as consumer prices, poverty probability, food prices by region, tourism destinations, and minimum wage statistics. The package supports reproducible research and teaching by integrating reliable international APIs and structured datasets from public, academic, and government sources. For more information on the APIs, see: Nager.Date <https://date.nager.at/Api>, World Bank API <https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/889392>, and REST Countries API <https://restcountries.com/>.

Nonparametric estimation of population-averaged transition probabilities, with cluster-bootstrap pointwise confidence intervals, simultaneous confidence bands, and two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov-type tests for clustered or independent multistate process data. Estimation follows Bakoyannis (2021) <doi:10.1111/biom.13327>; two-sample inference for the cluster-randomized and independent-samples designs follows Bakoyannis and Bandyopadhyay (2022) <doi:10.1007/s10463-021-00819-x>. Both methods use the working-independence Aalen-Johansen estimator. The package supports both progressive (acyclic) and non-monotone (e.g., illness-death with recovery) multistate processes, right censoring, left truncation, and informative cluster size. The user supplies data in interval format (one row per mutually-exclusive time interval per subject) and interacts with the package through a single formula-based function, patp().

This package provides a framework to help construct R data packages in a reproducible manner. Potentially time consuming processing of raw data sets into analysis ready data sets is done in a reproducible manner and decoupled from the usual R CMD build process so that data sets can be processed into R objects in the data package and the data package can then be shared, built, and installed by others without the need to repeat computationally costly data processing. The package maintains data provenance by turning the data processing scripts into package vignettes, as well as enforcing documentation and version checking of included data objects. Data packages can be version controlled on GitHub', and used to share data for manuscripts, collaboration and reproducible research.

Identification of putative causal variants in genome-wide association studies with trio and duo families. The package calculates the W feature statistics from KnockoffTrio and p-values from the family-based association test (FBAT) using trio and/or duo data. Compared to previous versions, a significant improvement has been made in Version 1.1.0 to allow the package to be applied not only to trio families but also to duo families. The package implements the methods in the paper: "Yang, Y., Wang, C., Liu, L., Buxbaum, J., He, Z., & Ionita-Laza, I. (2022). KnockoffTrio: A knockoff framework for the identification of putative causal variants in genome-wide association studies with trio design. The American Journal of Human Genetics, 109(10), 1761-1776.".

This package provides tools for calculating I-Scores, a simple way to measure how successful minor political parties are at influencing the major parties in their environment. I-Scores are designed to be a more comprehensive measurement of minor party success than vote share and legislative seats won, the current standard measurements, which do not reflect the strategies that most minor parties employ. The procedure leverages the Manifesto Project's NLP model to identify the issue areas that sentences discuss, see Burst et al. (2024) <doi:10.25522/manifesto.manifestoberta.56topics.context.2024.1.1>, and the Wordfish algorithm to estimate the relative positions that platforms take on those issue areas, see Slapin and Proksch (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-5907.2008.00338.x>.

Two-stage design for single-arm phase II trials with time-to-event endpoints (e.g., clinical trials on immunotherapies among cancer patients) can be calculated using this package. Two notable advantages of the package: 1) It provides flexible choices from three design methods (optimal, minmax, and admissible), and 2) the power of the design is more accurately calculated using the exact variance in the one-sample log-rank test. The package can be used for 1) planning the sample sizes and other design parameters, and 2) conducting the interim and final analyses for the Go/No-go decisions. More details about the design method can be found in: Wu, J, Chen L, Wei J, Weiss H, Chauhan A. (2020). <doi:10.1002/pst.1983>.

Develop, evaluate, and score multiple choice examinations, psychological scales, questionnaires, and similar types of data involving sequences of choices among one or more sets of answers. This version of the package should be considered as brand new. Almost all of the functions have been changed, including their argument list. See the file NEWS.Rd in the Inst folder for more information. Using the package does not require any formal statistical knowledge beyond what would be provided by a first course in statistics in a social science department. There the user would encounter the concept of probability and how it is used to model data and make decisions, and would become familiar with basic mathematical and statistical notation. Most of the output is in graphical form.

motifcounter provides motif matching, motif counting and motif enrichment functionality based on position frequency matrices. The main features of the packages include the utilization of higher-order background models and accounting for self-overlapping motif matches when determining motif enrichment. The background model allows to capture dinucleotide (or higher-order nucleotide) composition adequately which may reduced model biases and misleading results compared to using simple GC background models. When conducting a motif enrichment analysis based on the motif match count, the package relies on a compound Poisson distribution or alternatively a combinatorial model. These distribution account for self-overlapping motif structures as exemplified by repeat-like or palindromic motifs, and allow to determine the p-value and fold-enrichment for a set of observed motif matches.

Estimation of bifurcating autoregressive models of any order, p, BAR(p) as well as several types of bias correction for the least squares estimators of the autoregressive parameters as described in Zhou and Basawa (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2005.04.024> and Elbayoumi and Mostafa (2020) <doi:10.1002/sta4.342>. Currently, the bias correction methods supported include bootstrap (single, double and fast-double) bias correction and linear-bias-function-based bias correction. Functions for generating and plotting bifurcating autoregressive data from any BAR(p) model are also included. This new version includes calculating several type of bias-corrected and -uncorrected confidence intervals for the least squares estimators of the autoregressive parameters as described in Elbayoumi and Mostafa (2023) <doi:10.6339/23-JDS1092>.
