This package implements Surprisal analysis for gene expression data such as RNA-seq or microarray experiments. Surprisal analysis is an information-theoretic method that decomposes gene expression data into a baseline state and constraint-associated deviations, capturing coordinated gene expression patterns under different biological conditions.

Implementation of the structural model for variances in order to detect differentially expressed genes from gene expression data.

Survival analysis using a flexible Bayesian model for individual-level right-censored data, optionally combined with aggregate data on counts of survivors in different periods of time. An M-spline is used to describe the hazard function, with a prior on the coefficients that controls over-fitting. Proportional hazards or flexible non-proportional hazards models can be used to relate survival to predictors. Additive hazards (relative survival) models, waning treatment effects, and mixture cure models are also supported. Priors can be customised and calibrated to substantive beliefs. Posterior distributions are estimated using Stan', and outputs are arranged in a tidy format. See Jackson (2023) <doi:10.1186/s12874-023-02094-1>.

Implementations of a large number of tests for symmetry and their bootstrap variants, which can be used for testing the symmetry of random samples around a known or unknown mean. Functions are also there for testing the symmetry of model residuals around zero. Currently, the supported models are linear models and generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity (GARCH) models (fitted with the fGarch package). All tests are implemented using the Rcpp package which ensures great performance of the code.

Efficient implementations for Sorted L-One Penalized Estimation (SLOPE): generalized linear models regularized with the sorted L1-norm (Bogdan et al. 2015). Supported models include ordinary least-squares regression, binomial regression, multinomial regression, and Poisson regression. Both dense and sparse predictor matrices are supported. In addition, the package features predictor screening rules that enable fast and efficient solutions to high-dimensional problems.

Spatial versions of Regression Discontinuity Designs (RDDs) are becoming increasingly popular as tools for causal inference. However, conducting state-of-the-art analyses often involves tedious and time-consuming steps. This package offers comprehensive functionalities for executing all required spatial and econometric tasks in a streamlined manner. Moreover, it equips researchers with tools for performing essential placebo and balancing checks comprehensively. The fact that researchers do not have to rely on APIs of external GIS software ensures replicability and raises the standard for spatial RDDs.

This package provides a wrapper for sparse VAR (Vector Autoregression) and VECM (Vector Error Correction Model) time series models estimation using penalties like ENET (Elastic Net), SCAD (Smoothly Clipped Absolute Deviation) and MCP (Minimax Concave Penalty). Based on the work of Basu and Michailidis (2015) <doi:10.1214/15-AOS1315>.

We provide functions for computing the decision boundaries for pre-licensure vaccine trials using the Generalized Likelihood Ratio tests proposed by Shih, Lai, Heyse and Chen (2010, <doi:10.1002/sim.4036>).

Computes sample size for Student's t-test and for the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney test for categorical data. The t-test function allows paired and unpaired (balanced / unbalanced) designs as well as homogeneous and heterogeneous variances. The Wilcoxon function allows for ties.

S4 class wrappers for the ODBC and Pool DBI connection, also provides some utilities to paste small datasets to clipboard, rename columns. It is used by the package stacomiR for connections to the database. Development versions of stacomiR are available in R-forge.

This package performs multiple testing corrections that take specific structure of hypotheses into account, as described in Sankaran & Holmes (2014) <doi:10.18637/jss.v059.i13>.

Easily analyze and visualize differences between samples (e.g., benchmark comparisons, nonresponse comparisons in surveys) on three levels. The comparisons can be univariate, bivariate or multivariate. On univariate level the variables of interest of a survey and a comparison survey (i.e. benchmark) are compared, by calculating one of several difference measures (e.g., relative difference in mean), and an average difference between the surveys. On bivariate level a function can calculate significant differences in correlations for the surveys. And on multivariate levels a function can calculate significant differences in model coefficients between the surveys of comparison. All of those differences can be easily plotted and outputted as a table. For more detailed information on the methods and example use see Rohr, B., Silber, H., & Felderer, B. (2024).

An outcome-guided algorithm is developed to identify clusters of samples with similar characteristics and survival rate. The algorithm first builds a random forest and then defines distances between samples based on the fitted random forest. Given the distances, we can apply hierarchical clustering algorithms to define clusters. Details about this method is described in <https://github.com/luyouepiusf/SurvivalClusteringTree>.

This package provides two methods for segmentation and joint segmentation/clustering of bivariate time-series. Originally intended for ecological segmentation (home-range and behavioural modes) but easily applied on other series, the package also provides tools for analysing outputs from R packages moveHMM and marcher'. The segmentation method is a bivariate extension of Lavielle's method available in adehabitatLT (Lavielle, 1999 <doi:10.1016/S0304-4149(99)00023-X> and 2005 <doi:10.1016/j.sigpro.2005.01.012>). This method rely on dynamic programming for efficient segmentation. The segmentation/clustering method alternates steps of dynamic programming with an Expectation-Maximization algorithm. This is an extension of Picard et al (2007) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2006.00729.x> method (formerly available in cghseg package) to the bivariate case. The method is fully described in Patin et al (2018) <doi:10.1101/444794>.

Calculates and plots the SiZer map for scatterplot data. A SiZer map is a way of examining when the p-th derivative of a scatterplot-smoother is significantly negative, possibly zero or significantly positive across a range of smoothing bandwidths.
