Sample size calculation to detect dynamic treatment regime (DTR) effects based on change in clinical attachment level (CAL) outcomes from a non-surgical chronic periodontitis treatments study. The experiment is performed under a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) design. The clustered tooth (sub-unit) level CAL outcomes are skewed, spatially-referenced, and non-randomly missing. The implemented algorithm is available in Xu et al. (2019+) <arXiv:1902.09386>.

The nature of working with structured query language ('SQL') scripts efficiently often requires the creation of temporary tables and there are few clean and simple R SQL execution approaches that allow you to complete this kind of work with the R environment. This package seeks to give SQL implementations in R a little love by deploying functions that allow you to deploy complex SQL scripts within a typical R workflow.

This package provides a set of tools to assist statistical programmers in validating Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) domain data sets. Statistical programmers are required to validate that a SDTM data set domain has been programmed correctly, per the SDTM Implementation Guide (SDTMIG) by CDISC (<https://www.cdisc.org/standards/foundational/sdtmig>), study specification, and study protocol using a process called double programming. Double programming involves two different programmers independently converting the raw electronic data cut (EDC) data into a SDTM domain data table and comparing their results to ensure accurate standardization of the data. One of these attempts is termed production and the other validation'. Generally, production runs are the official programs for submittals and these are written in SAS'. Validation runs can be programmed in another language, in this case R'.

Automatically replaces "misspelled" words in a character vector based on their string distance from a list of words sorted by their frequency in a corpus. The default word list provided in the package comes from the Corpus of Contemporary American English. Uses the Jaro-Winkler distance metric for string similarity as implemented in van der Loo (2014) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2014-011>. The word frequency data is derived from Davies (2008-) "The Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA)" <https://www.english-corpora.org/coca/>.

This package provides a set of functions allowing to implement the SpiceFP approach which is iterative. It involves transformation of functional predictors into several candidate explanatory matrices (based on contingency tables), to which relative edge matrices with contiguity constraints are associated. Generalized Fused Lasso regression are performed in order to identify the best candidate matrix, the best class intervals and related coefficients at each iteration. The approach is stopped when the maximal number of iterations is reached or when retained coefficients are zeros. Supplementary functions allow to get coefficients of any candidate matrix or mean of coefficients of many candidates. The methods in this package are describing in Girault Gnanguenon Guesse, Patrice Loisel, Bénedicte Fontez, Thierry Simonneau, Nadine Hilgert (2021) "An exploratory penalized regression to identify combined effects of functional variables -Application to agri-environmental issues" <https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-03298977>.

Balancing computational and statistical efficiency, subsampling techniques offer a practical solution for handling large-scale data analysis. Subsampling methods enhance statistical modeling for massive datasets by efficiently drawing representative subsamples from full dataset based on tailored sampling probabilities. These probabilities are optimized for specific goals, such as minimizing the variance of coefficient estimates or reducing prediction error.

This package implements an approach aimed at assessing the accuracy and effectiveness of raw scores obtained in scales that contain locally dependent items. The program uses as input the calibration (structural) item estimates obtained from fitting extended unidimensional factor-analytic solutions in which the existing local dependencies are included. Measures of reliability (Omega) and information are proposed at three levels: (a) total score, (b) bivariate-doublet, and (c) item-by-item deletion, and are compared to those that would be obtained if all the items had been locally independent. All the implemented procedures can be obtained from: (a) linear factor-analytic solutions in which the item scores are treated as approximately continuous, and (b) non-linear solutions in which the item scores are treated as ordered-categorical. A detailed guide can be obtained at the following url.

In practice, it is difficult to determine the number of decomposition modes, K, for Variational Mode Decomposition (VMD). To overcome this issue, this study offers Spearman Variational Mode Decomposition (SVMD), a method that uses the Spearman correlation coefficient to calculate the ideal mode number. Unlike the Pearson correlation coefficient, which only returns a perfect value when X and Y are linearly connected, the Spearman correlation can be calculated without knowing the probability distributions of X and Y. The Spearman correlation coefficient, also called Spearman's rank correlation coefficient, is a subset of a wider correlation coefficient. As VMD decomposes a signal, the Spearman correlation coefficient between the reconstructed and original sequences rises as the mode number K increases. Once the signal has been fully decomposed, subsequent increases in K cause the correlation to gradually level off. When the correlation reaches a specific level, VMD is said to have adequately decomposed the signal. Numerous experiments revealed that a threshold of 0.997 produces the best denoising effect, so the threshold is set at 0.997. This package has been developed using concept of Yang et al. (2021)<doi:10.1016/j.aej.2021.01.055>.
