Bland (2009) <doi:10.1136/bmj.b3985> recommended to base study sizes on the width of the confidence interval rather the power of a statistical test. The goal of presize is to provide functions for such precision based sample size calculations. For a given sample size, the functions will return the precision (width of the confidence interval), and vice versa.

This package provides a probabilistic framework that integrates Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) (Banker et al., 1984) <doi:10.1287/mnsc.30.9.1078> with machine learning classifiers (Kuhn, 2008) <doi:10.18637/jss.v028.i05> to estimate both the (in)efficiency status and the probability of efficiency for decision-making units. The approach trains predictive models on DEA-derived efficiency labels (Charnes et al., 1985) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(85)90133-2>, enabling explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) workflows with global and local interpretability tools, including permutation importance (Molnar et al., 2018) <doi:10.21105/joss.00786>, Shapley value explanations (Strumbelj & Kononenko, 2014) <doi:10.1007/s10115-013-0679-x>, and sensitivity analysis (Cortez, 2011) <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=rminer>. The framework also supports probability-threshold peer selection and counterfactual improvement recommendations for benchmarking and policy evaluation. The probabilistic efficiency framework is detailed in González-Moyano et al. (2025) "Probability-based Technical Efficiency Analysis through Machine Learning", in review for publication.

It can estimate background genetic variance components, impute missing genotypes, simulate genotypes, perform a genome scan for putative quantitative trait loci (QTL), and plot mapping results. It also has functions to calculate identity coefficients from pedigrees, especially suitable for pedigrees that consist of a large number of generations, or estimate identity coefficients from genotypic data in certain circumstances.

This package provides functions to compute Euclidean minimum spanning trees using single-, sesqui-, and dual-tree Boruvka algorithms. Thanks to K-d trees, they are fast in spaces of low intrinsic dimensionality. Mutual reachability distances (used in the definition of the HDBSCAN* algorithm) are supported too. The package also includes relatively fast fallback minimum spanning tree and nearest-neighbours algorithms for spaces of higher dimensionality. The Python version of quitefastmst is available via PyPI'.

Provides pointwise and uniform confidence intervals using analytic and resampling methods.

There are three functions: qol, miss_qol and miss_patient takes input of the data set containing the answers of QOL questionnaire. It will compute the three types of domain based scale scores: Global, Functional, and Symptoms. In case of missing data, the miss_qol and miss_patient functions will make the required changes and then calculate the domain-wise scale scores. Finally, provide an output replacing the question columns with the domain-based scale scores in the original data set.

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>. Asymptotic N-mixture models extend the work of Dail and Madsen (2011) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2010.01465.x>, to consider asymptotic solutions to the open population N-mixture models. 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). Fast asymptotic solutions for N-mixtures on large populations [Manuscript in preparation]. Department of Statistics and Actuarial Sciences, Simon Fraser University.".

For QTL mapping, this package comprises several functions designed to execute diverse tasks, such as simulating or analyzing data, calculating significance thresholds, and visualizing QTL mapping results. The single-QTL or multiple-QTL method, which enables the fitting and comparison of various statistical models, is employed to analyze the data for estimating QTL parameters. The models encompass linear regression, permutation tests, normal mixture models, and truncated normal mixture models. The Gaussian stochastic process is utilized to compute significance thresholds for QTL detection on a genetic linkage map within experimental populations. Two types of data, complete genotyping, and selective genotyping data from various experimental populations, including backcross, F2, recombinant inbred (RI) populations, and advanced intercrossed (AI) populations, are considered in the QTL mapping analysis. For QTL hotspot detection, statistical methods can be developed based on either utilizing individual-level data or summarized data. We have proposed a statistical framework capable of handling both individual-level data and summarized QTL data for QTL hotspot detection. Our statistical framework can overcome the underestimation of thresholds resulting from ignoring the correlation structure among traits. Additionally, it can identify different types of hotspots with minimal computational cost during the detection process. Here, we endeavor to furnish the R codes for our QTL mapping and hotspot detection methods, intended for general use in genes, genomics, and genetics studies. The QTL mapping methods for the complete and selective genotyping designs are based on the multiple interval mapping (MIM) model proposed by Kao, C.-H. , Z.-B. Zeng and R. D. Teasdale (1999) <doi: 10.1534/genetics.103.021642> and H.-I Lee, H.-A. Ho and C.-H. Kao (2014) <doi: 10.1534/genetics.114.168385>, respectively. The QTL hotspot detection analysis is based on the method by Wu, P.-Y., M.-.H. Yang, and C.-H. Kao (2021) <doi: 10.1093/g3journal/jkab056>.
