Loads and processes huge text corpora processed with the sally toolbox (<http://www.mlsec.org/sally/>). sally acts as a very fast preprocessor which splits the text files into tokens or n-grams. These output files can then be read with the PRISMA package which applies testing-based token selection and has some replicate-aware, highly tuned non-negative matrix factorization and principal component analysis implementation which allows the processing of very big data sets even on desktop machines.

Compiles functions to trim, bin, visualise, and analyse activity/sleep time-series data collected from the Drosophila Activity Monitor (DAM) system (Trikinetics, USA). The following methods were used to compute periodograms - Chi-square periodogram: Sokolove and Bushell (1978) <doi:10.1016/0022-5193(78)90022-X>, Lomb-Scargle periodogram: Lomb (1976) <doi:10.1007/BF00648343>, Scargle (1982) <doi:10.1086/160554> and Ruf (1999) <doi:10.1076/brhm.30.2.178.1422>, and Autocorrelation: Eijzenbach et al. (1986) <doi:10.1111/j.1440-1681.1986.tb00943.x>. Identification of activity peaks is done after using a Savitzky-Golay filter (Savitzky and Golay (1964) <doi:10.1021/ac60214a047>) to smooth raw activity data.

Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the family of power and reversal power distributions.

This package provides a polycross is the pollination by natural hybridization of a group of genotypes, generally selected, grown in isolation from other compatible genotypes in such a way to promote random open pollination. A particular practical application of the polycross method occurs in the production of a synthetic variety resulting from cross-pollinated plants. Laying out these experiments in appropriate designs, known as polycross designs, would not only save experimental resources but also gather more information from the experiment. Different experimental situations may arise in polycross nurseries which may be requiring different polycross designs (Varghese et. al. (2015) <doi:10.1080/02664763.2015.1043860>. " Experimental designs for open pollination in polycross trials"). This package contains a function named PD() which generates nine types of polycross designs suitable for various experimental situations.

This package provides a partialised class that extends the partialising function of purrr by making it easier to change the arguments. This is similar to the function-like object in Julia (<https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/methods/#Function-like-objects>).

Several functions are provided to implement a MBPLSDA : components search, optimal model components number search, optimal model validity test by permutation tests, observed values evaluation of optimal model parameters and predicted categories, bootstrap values evaluation of optimal model parameters and predicted cross-validated categories.

There are 4 possible methods: "ExhaustiveSearch"; "ExhaustivePhi"; "ClusteringSearch"; and "ClusteringPhi". "ExhaustiveSearch"--> gives you the best phage cocktail from a phage-bacteria infection network. It checks different phage cocktail sizes from 1 to 7 and only stops before if it lyses all bacteria. Other option is when users have decided not to obtain a phage cocktail size higher than a limit value. "ExhaustivePhi"--> firstly, it finds Phi out. Phi is a formula indicating the necessary phage cocktail size. Phi needs nestedness temperature and fill, which are internally calculated. This function will only look for the best combination (phage cocktail) with a Phi size. "ClusteringSearch"--> firstly, an agglomerative hierarchical clustering using Ward's algorithm is calculated for phages. They will be clustered according to bacteria lysed by them. PhageCocktail() chooses how many clusters are needed in order to select 1 phage per cluster. Using the phages selected during the clustering, it checks different phage cocktail sizes from 1 to 7 and only stops before if it lyses all bacteria. Other option is when users have decided not to obtain a phage cocktail size higher than a limit value. "ClusteringPhi"--> firstly, an agglomerative hierarchical clustering using Ward's algorithm is calculated for phages. They will be clustered according to bacteria lysed by them. PhageCocktail() chooses how many clusters are needed in order to select 1 phage per cluster. Once the function has one phage per cluster, it calculates Phi. If the number of clusters is less than Phi number, it will be changed to obtain, as minimum, this quantity of candidates (phages). Then, it calculates the best combination of Phi phages using those selected during the clustering with Ward algorithm.

This package provides tools to import, clean, and visualize movement data, particularly from motion capture systems such as Optitrack's Motive', the Straw Lab's Flydra', or from other sources. We provide functions to remove artifacts, standardize tunnel position and tunnel axes, select a region of interest, isolate specific trajectories, fill gaps in trajectory data, and calculate 3D and per-axis velocity. For experiments of visual guidance, we also provide functions that use subject position to estimate perception of visual stimuli.
