This comprehensive toolkit for skewed regression is designated as "SLIC" (The LIC for Distributed Skewed Regression Analysis). It is predicated on the assumption that the error term follows a skewed distribution, such as the Skew-Normal, Skew-t, or Skew-Laplace.

This package provides an efficient method to recover the missing block of an approximately low-rank matrix. Current literature on matrix completion focuses primarily on independent sampling models under which the individual observed entries are sampled independently. Motivated by applications in genomic data integration, we propose a new framework of structured matrix completion (SMC) to treat structured missingness by design [Cai T, Cai TT, Zhang A (2016) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2015.1021005>]. Specifically, our proposed method aims at efficient matrix recovery when a subset of the rows and columns of an approximately low-rank matrix are observed. The main function in our package, smc.FUN(), is for recovery of the missing block A22 of an approximately low-rank matrix A given the other blocks A11, A12, A21.

An implementation of split-population duration regression models. Unlike regular duration models, split-population duration models are mixture models that accommodate the presence of a sub-population that is not at risk for failure, e.g. cancer patients who have been cured by treatment. This package implements Weibull and Loglogistic forms for the duration component, and focuses on data with time-varying covariates. These models were originally formulated in Boag (1949) and Berkson and Gage (1952), and extended in Schmidt and Witte (1989).

Estimate the abundance of cell clones from the distribution of lengths of DNA fragments (as created by sonication, whence `sonicLength'). The algorithm in "Estimating abundances of retroviral insertion sites from DNA fragment length data" by Berry CC, Gillet NA, Melamed A, Gormley N, Bangham CR, Bushman FD. Bioinformatics; 2012 Mar 15;28(6):755-62 is implemented. The experimental setting and estimation details are described in detail there. Briefly, integration of new DNA in a host genome (due to retroviral infection or gene therapy) can be tracked using DNA sequencing, potentially allowing characterization of the abundance of individual cell clones bearing distinct integration sites. The locations of integration sites can be determined by fragmenting the host DNA (via sonication or fragmentase), breaking the newly integrated DNA at a known sequence, amplifying the fragments containing both host and integrated DNA, sequencing those amplicons, then mapping the host sequences to positions on the reference genome. The relative number of fragments containing a given position in the host genome estimates the relative abundance of cells hosting the corresponding integration site, but that number is not available and the count of amplicons per fragment varies widely. However, the expected number of distinct fragment lengths is a function of the abundance of cells hosting an integration site at a given position and a certain nuisance parameter. The algorithm implicitly estimates that function to estimate the relative abundance.

This R package introduces Weighted Mean SHapley Additive exPlanations (WMSHAP), an innovative method for calculating SHAP values for a grid of fine-tuned base-learner machine learning models as well as stacked ensembles, a method not previously available due to the common reliance on single best-performing models. By integrating the weighted mean SHAP values from individual base-learners comprising the ensemble or individual base-learners in a tuning grid search, the package weights SHAP contributions according to each model's performance, assessed by multiple either R squared (for both regression and classification models). alternatively, this software also offers weighting SHAP values based on the area under the precision-recall curve (AUCPR), the area under the curve (AUC), and F2 measures for binary classifiers. It further extends this framework to implement weighted confidence intervals for weighted mean SHAP values, offering a more comprehensive and robust feature importance evaluation over a grid of machine learning models, instead of solely computing SHAP values for the best model. This methodology is particularly beneficial for addressing the severe class imbalance (class rarity) problem by providing a transparent, generalized measure of feature importance that mitigates the risk of reporting SHAP values for an overfitted or biased model and maintains robustness under severe class imbalance, where there is no universal criteria of identifying the absolute best model. Furthermore, the package implements hypothesis testing to ascertain the statistical significance of SHAP values for individual features, as well as comparative significance testing of SHAP contributions between features. Additionally, it tackles a critical gap in feature selection literature by presenting criteria for the automatic feature selection of the most important features across a grid of models or stacked ensembles, eliminating the need for arbitrary determination of the number of top features to be extracted. This utility is invaluable for researchers analyzing feature significance, particularly within severely imbalanced outcomes where conventional methods fall short. Moreover, it is also expected to report democratic feature importance across a grid of models, resulting in a more comprehensive and generalizable feature selection. The package further implements a novel method for visualizing SHAP values both at subject level and feature level as well as a plot for feature selection based on the weighted mean SHAP ratios.
