This package provides a nonparametric, multicore-capable plausible naive Bayes classifier based on the Pareto density estimation (PDE), supporting memory sharing within multicore computations and featuring a plausible approach to a pitfall in the Bayesian theorem covering low evidence cases Stier, Q., Hoffmann, J., and Thrun, M.C.: "Classifying with the Fine Structure of Distributions: Leveraging Distributional Information for Robust and Plausible Naive Bayes" (2026), Machine Learning and Knowledge Extraction (MAKE), <DOI:10.3390/make8010013>.

Sparse regression and classification via the Pivotal Information Criterion (PIC), an alternative to the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), cross-validation, and Lasso-based tuning. The regularization parameter is selected from a pivotal null-distribution statistic, eliminating the need for cross-validation and yielding sharper support recovery. Provides Fast Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm (FISTA) optimization for the L1, Smoothly Clipped Absolute Deviation (SCAD), and Minimax Concave Penalty (MCP) penalties across six response distributions: Gaussian, binomial, Poisson, exponential, Gumbel, and Cox. Under standard sparsity assumptions, the selector achieves a phase transition for exact support recovery, analogous to results in compressed sensing.

This package provides a user friendly way to create patient level prediction models using the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model. Given a cohort of interest and an outcome of interest, the package can use data in the Common Data Model to build a large set of features. These features can then be used to fit a predictive model with a number of machine learning algorithms. This is further described in Reps (2017) <doi:10.1093/jamia/ocy032>.

This package provides a tidyverse'-style interface to the Brazilian Central Bank (<https://www.bcb.gov.br>) PIX Open Data API <https://olinda.bcb.gov.br/olinda/servico/Pix_DadosAbertos/versao/v1/aplicacao#!/recursos>. Retrieve statistics on PIX keys, transactions by municipality, and monthly transaction summaries. All functions return tibbles and support OData query parameters for filtering, selecting, and ordering data.

This package provides functions for generating pseudo-random numbers that follow a uniform distribution [0,1]. Randomness tests were conducted using the National Institute of Standards and Technology test suite<https://csrc.nist.gov/pubs/sp/800/22/r1/upd1/final>, along with additional tests. The sequence generated depends on the initial values and parameters. The package includes a linear congruence map as the decision map and three chaotic maps to generate the pseudo-random sequence, which follow a uniform distribution. Other distributions can be generated from the uniform distribution using the Inversion Principle Method and BOX-Muller transformation. Small perturbations in seed values result in entirely different sequences of numbers due to the sensitive nature of the maps being used. The chaotic nature of the maps helps achieve randomness in the generator. Additionally, the generator is capable of producing random bits.

This package implements methods to automate the Auer-Gervini graphical Bayesian approach for determining the number of significant principal components. Automation uses clustering, change points, or simple statistical models to distinguish "long" from "short" steps in a graph showing the posterior number of components as a function of a prior parameter. See <doi:10.1101/237883>.

This package provides a graphical user interface for viewing and designing various types of graphs of the data. The graphs can be saved in different formats of an image.

An implementation of data analysis tools for samples of symmetric or Hermitian positive definite matrices, such as collections of covariance matrices or spectral density matrices. The tools in this package can be used to perform: (i) intrinsic wavelet transforms for curves (1D) or surfaces (2D) of Hermitian positive definite matrices with applications to dimension reduction, denoising and clustering in the space of Hermitian positive definite matrices; and (ii) exploratory data analysis and inference for samples of positive definite matrices by means of intrinsic data depth functions and rank-based hypothesis tests in the space of Hermitian positive definite matrices.

This package contains a function to categorize accelerometer readings collected in free-living (e.g., for 24 hours/day for 7 days), preprocessed and compressed as counts (unit-less value) in a specified time period termed epoch (e.g., 1 minute) as either bedrest (sleep) or active. The input is a matrix with a timestamp column and a column with number of counts per epoch. The output is the same dataframe with an additional column termed bedrest. In the bedrest column each line (epoch) contains a function-generated classification br or a denoting bedrest/sleep and activity, respectively. The package is designed to be used after wear/nonwear marking function in the PhysicalActivity package. Version 1.1 adds preschool thresholds and corrects for possible errors in algorithm implementation.

Construct a principal surface that are two-dimensional surfaces that pass through the middle of a p-dimensional data set. They minimise the distance from the data points, and provide a nonlinear summary of data. The surfaces are nonparametric and their shape is suggested by the data. The formation of a surface is found using an iterative procedure which starts with a linear summary, typically with a principal component plane. Each successive iteration is a local average of the p-dimensional points, where an average is based on a projection of a point onto the nonlinear surface of the previous iteration. For more information on principal surfaces, see Ganey, R. (2019, "https://open.uct.ac.za/items/4e655d7d-d10c-481b-9ccc-801903aebfc8").

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.

An implementation of the one-step privacy-protecting method for estimating the overall and site-specific hazard ratios using inverse probability weighted Cox models in distributed data network studies, as proposed by Shu, Yoshida, Fireman, and Toh (2019) <doi: 10.1177/0962280219869742>. This method only requires sharing of summary-level riskset tables instead of individual-level data. Both the conventional inverse probability weights and the stabilized weights are implemented.

Datetimes and timestamps are invariably an imprecise notation, with any partial representation implying some amount of uncertainty. To handle this, parttime provides classes for embedding partial missingness as a central part of its datetime classes. This central feature allows for more ergonomic use of datetimes for challenging datetime computation, including calculations of overlapping date ranges, imputations, and more thoughtful handling of ambiguity that arises from uncertain time zones. This package was developed first and foremost with pharmaceutical applications in mind, but aims to be agnostic to application to accommodate general use cases just as conveniently.

This package implements two-stage pseudo maximum likelihood estimation (PMLE) for copula-based regression models with semi-competing risks data. The marginal distributions are modeled by semiparametric transformation regression models, and the dependence between bivariate event times is specified by a parametric copula function. See Arachchige, Chen and Zhou (2025) <doi:10.1007/s10985-024-09640-z> for details.
