An implementation of Quantitative Fatty Acid Signature Analysis (QFASA) in R. QFASA is a method of estimating the diet composition of predators. The fundamental unit of information in QFASA is a fatty acid signature (signature), which is a vector of proportions describing the composition of fatty acids within lipids. Signature data from at least one predator and from samples of all potential prey types are required. Calibration coefficients, which adjust for the differential metabolism of individual fatty acids by predators, are also required. Given those data inputs, a predator signature is modeled as a mixture of prey signatures and its diet estimate is obtained as the mixture that minimizes a measure of distance between the observed and modeled signatures. A variety of estimation options and simulation capabilities are implemented. Please refer to the vignette for additional details and references.

Quantile regression (QR) for Linear Mixed-Effects Models via the asymmetric Laplace distribution (ALD). It uses the Stochastic Approximation of the EM (SAEM) algorithm for deriving exact maximum likelihood estimates and full inference results for the fixed-effects and variance components. It also provides graphical summaries for assessing the algorithm convergence and fitting results.

Fits non-crossing regression quantiles as a function of linear covariates and multiple smooth terms, including varying coefficients, via B-splines with L1-norm difference penalties. Random intercepts and variable selection are allowed via the lasso penalties. The smoothing parameters are estimated as part of the model fitting, see Muggeo and others (2021) <doi:10.1177/1471082X20929802>. Monotonicity and concavity constraints on the fitted curves are allowed, see Muggeo and others (2013) <doi:10.1007/s10651-012-0232-1>, and also <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.12924.85122> or <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.29306.21445> some code examples.

Nomograms are constructed to predict the cumulative incidence rate which is calculated after adjusting for competing causes to the event of interest. K-fold cross-validation is implemented to validate predictive accuracy using a competing-risk version of the concordance index. Methods are as described in: Kattan MW, Heller G, Brennan MF (2003).

This package provides a quantum computer simulator framework with up to 24 qubits. It allows to define general single qubit gates and general controlled single qubit gates. For convenience, it currently provides the most common gates (X, Y, Z, H, Z, S, T, Rx, Ry, Rz, CNOT, SWAP, Toffoli or CCNOT, Fredkin or CSWAP). qsimulatR also implements noise models. qsimulatR supports plotting of circuits and is able to export circuits to Qiskit <https://qiskit.org/>, a python package which can be used to run on IBM's hardware <https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/>.

Allows practitioners to determine (i) if two univariate distributions (which can be continuous, discrete, or even mixed) are equal, (ii) how two distributions differ (shape differences, e.g., location, scale, etc.), and (iii) where two distributions differ (at which quantiles), all using nonparametric LP statistics. The primary reference is Jungreis, D. (2019, Technical Report).

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.
