The matrix factor model has drawn growing attention for its advantage in achieving two-directional dimension reduction simultaneously for matrix-structured observations. In contrast to the Principal Component Analysis (PCA)-based methods, we propose a simple Iterative Alternating Least Squares (IALS) algorithm for matrix factor model, see the details in He et al. (2023) <arXiv:2301.00360>.

An implementation of the Log Cumulative Probability Model (LCPM) and Proportional Probability Model (PPM) for which the Maximum Likelihood Estimates are determined using constrained optimization. This implementation accounts for the implicit constraints on the parameter space. Other features such as standard errors, z tests and p-values use standard methods adapted from the results based on constrained optimization.

Provides cooperative lasso, lasso, and group lasso penalties with cross-validation for tuning parameter selection via cross-fitted estimating equations.

More specifically, the package facilitates type-2 history for data-warehouses and provides a number of Quality of life improvements for working on SQL databases with R. For reference see Ralph Kimball and Margy Ross (2013, ISBN 9781118530801).

This package provides simple and powerful interfaces that facilitate interaction with ODBC data sources. Each data source gets its own unique and dedicated interface, wrapped around RODBC'. Communication settings are remembered between queries, and are managed silently in the background. The interfaces support multi-statement SQL scripts, which can be parameterised via metaprogramming structures and embedded R expressions.

This package provides functions to produce a fully fledged geo-spatial object extent as a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame'. Also included are functions to generate polygons from raster data using quadmesh techniques, a round number buffered extent, and general spatial-extent and raster-like extent helpers missing from the originating packages. Some latitude-based tools for polar maps are included.

Binary ties limit the richness of network analyses as relations are unique. The two-mode structure contains a number of features lost when projection it to a one-mode network. Longitudinal datasets allow for an understanding of the causal relationship among ties, which is not the case in cross-sectional datasets as ties are dependent upon each other.

Link R with Transformers from Hugging Face to transform text variables to word embeddings; where the word embeddings are used to statistically test the mean difference between set of texts, compute semantic similarity scores between texts, predict numerical variables, and visual statistically significant words according to various dimensions etc. For more information see <https://www.r-text.org>.

This package provides functions for performing time domain signal coding as used in Chesmore (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0003-682X(01)00009-3>, and related tasks. This package creates the standard S-matrix and A-matrix (with variable lag), has tools to convert coding matrices into distributed matrices, provides published codebooks and allows for extraction of code sequences.

This package provides a tool to define the rare biosphere. ulrb solves the problem of the definition of rarity by replacing arbitrary thresholds with an unsupervised machine learning algorithm (partitioning around medoids, or k-medoids). This algorithm works for any type of microbiome data, provided there is an abundance table. This method also works for non-microbiome data.

Semiparametric modeling of lifetime data with crossing survival curves via Yang and Prentice model with piecewise exponential baseline distribution.

Fit and simulate any kind of physiologically-based kinetic ('PBK') models whatever the number of compartments. Moreover, it allows to account for any link between pairs of compartments, as well as any link of each of the compartments with the external medium. Such generic PBK models have today applications in pharmacology (PBPK models) to describe drug effects, in toxicology and ecotoxicology (PBTK models) to describe chemical substance effects. In case of exposure to a parent compound (drug or chemical) the rPBK package allows to consider metabolites, whatever their number and their phase (I, II, ...). Last but not least, package rPBK can also be used for dynamic flux balance analysis (dFBA) to deal with metabolic networks. See also Charles et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.04.29.490045>.

This package contains utilities for the analysis of Michaelian kinetic data. Beside the classical linearization methods (Lineweaver-Burk, Eadie-Hofstee, Hanes-Woolf and Eisenthal-Cornish-Bowden), features include the ability to carry out weighted regression analysis that, in most cases, substantially improves the estimation of kinetic parameters (Aledo (2021) <doi:10.1002/bmb.21522>). To avoid data transformation and the potential biases introduced by them, the package also offers functions to directly fitting data to the Michaelis-Menten equation, either using ([S], v) or (time, [S]) data. Utilities to simulate substrate progress-curves (making use of the Lambert W function) are also provided. The package is accompanied of vignettes that aim to orientate the user in the choice of the most suitable method to estimate the kinetic parameter of an Michaelian enzyme.

mlr3 enables efficient, object-oriented programming on the building blocks of machine learning. It provides R6 objects for tasks, learners, resamplings, and measures. The package is geared towards scalability and larger datasets by supporting parallelization and out-of-memory data-backends like databases. While mlr3 focuses on the core computational operations, add-on packages provide additional functionality.

This package simulates continuous distributions of random vectors using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Users specify the distribution by an R function that evaluates the log unnormalized density. Algorithms are random walk Metropolis algorithm (function metrop), simulated tempering (function temper), and morphometric random walk Metropolis (function morph.metrop), which achieves geometric ergodicity by change of variable.

Similarly to Schafer's package pan, jomo is a package for multilevel joint modelling multiple imputation http://doi.org/10.1002/9781119942283. Novel aspects of jomo are the possibility of handling binary and categorical data through latent normal variables, the option to use cluster-specific covariance matrices and to impute compatibly with the substantive model.

The snow package provides support for simple parallel computing on a network of workstations using R. A master R process calls makeCluster to start a cluster of worker processes; the master process then uses functions such as clusterCall and clusterApply to execute R code on the worker processes and collect and return the results on the master.
