This package performs multivariate nonparametric regression/classification by the method of sieves (using orthogonal basis). The method is suitable for moderate high-dimensional features (dimension < 100). The l1-penalized sieve estimator, a nonparametric generalization of Lasso, is adaptive to the feature dimension with provable theoretical guarantees. We also include a nonparametric stochastic gradient descent estimator, Sieve-SGD, for online or large scale batch problems. Details of the methods can be found in: <arXiv:2206.02994> <arXiv:2104.00846><arXiv:2310.12140>.

Quasi-Monte-Carlo algorithm for systematic generation of shock scenarios from an arbitrary multivariate elliptical distribution. The algorithm selects a systematic mesh of arbitrary fineness that approximately evenly covers an isoprobability ellipsoid in d dimensions (Flood, Mark D. & Korenko, George G. (2013) <doi:10.1080/14697688.2014.926018>). This package is the R analogy to the Matlab code published by Flood & Korenko in above-mentioned paper.

This package provides a dynamic programming solution to segmentation based on maximization of arbitrary similarity measures within segments. The general idea, theory and this implementation are described in Machne, Murray & Stadler (2017) <doi:10.1038/s41598-017-12401-8>. In addition to the core algorithm, the package provides time-series processing and clustering functions as described in the publication. These are generally applicable where a `k-means` clustering yields meaningful results, and have been specifically developed for clustering of the Discrete Fourier Transform of periodic gene expression data (`circadian or `yeast metabolic oscillations'). This clustering approach is outlined in the supplemental material of Machne & Murray (2012) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0037906>), and here is used as a basis of segment similarity measures. Notably, the time-series processing and clustering functions can also be used as stand-alone tools, independent of segmentation, e.g., for transcriptome data already mapped to genes.

This package provides a collection of sparse and regularized discriminant analysis methods intended for small-sample, high-dimensional data sets.

Spatial stratified heterogeneity (SSH) denotes the coexistence of within-strata homogeneity and between-strata heterogeneity. Information consistency-based methods provide a rigorous approach to quantify SSH and evaluate its role in spatial processes, grounded in principles of geographical stratification and information theory (Bai, H. et al.

Computes the Akaike information criterion for the generalized linear models (logistic regression, Poisson regression, and Gaussian graphical models) estimated by the lasso.

We provide full functionality to smooth L1 penalized regression operators and to compute regression estimates thereof. For this, the objective function of a user-specified regression operator is first smoothed using Nesterov smoothing (see Y. Nesterov (2005) <doi:10.1007/s10107-004-0552-5>), resulting in a modified objective function with explicit gradients everywhere. The smoothed objective function and its gradient are minimized via BFGS, and the obtained minimizer is returned. Using Nesterov smoothing, the smoothed objective function can be made arbitrarily close to the original (unsmoothed) one. In particular, the Nesterov approach has the advantage that it comes with explicit accuracy bounds, both on the L1/L2 difference of the unsmoothed to the smoothed objective functions as well as on their respective minimizers (see G. Hahn, S.M. Lutz, N. Laha, C. Lange (2020) <doi:10.1101/2020.09.17.301788>). A progressive smoothing approach is provided which iteratively smoothes the objective function, resulting in more stable regression estimates. A function to perform cross validation for selection of the regularization parameter is provided.

It is a hybrid spatial model that combines the variable selection capabilities of stepwise regression methods with the predictive power of the Geographically Weighted Regression(GWR) model.The developed hybrid model follows a two-step approach where the stepwise variable selection method is applied first to identify the subset of predictors that have the most significant impact on the response variable, and then a GWR model is fitted using those selected variables for spatial prediction at test or unknown locations. For method details,see Leung, Y., Mei, C. L. and Zhang, W. X. (2000).<DOI:10.1068/a3162>.This hybrid spatial model aims to improve the accuracy and interpretability of GWR predictions by selecting a subset of relevant variables through a stepwise selection process.This approach is particularly useful for modeling spatially varying relationships and improving the accuracy of spatial predictions.

Utilizes the Reliability-Adjusted Product Indicator (RAPI) method to estimate effects among latent variables, thus allowing for more precise definition and analysis of mediation and moderation models. Our simulation studies reveal that while silp may exhibit instability with smaller sample sizes and lower reliability scores (e.g., N = 100, omega = 0.7), implementing nearest positive definite matrix correction and bootstrap confidence interval estimation can significantly ameliorate this volatility. When these adjustments are applied, silp achieves estimations akin in quality to those derived from LMS. In conclusion, the silp package is a valuable tool for researchers seeking to explore complex relational structures between variables without resorting to commercial software.

This package implements two iterative techniques called T3Clus and 3Fkmeans, aimed at simultaneously clustering objects and a factorial dimensionality reduction of variables and occasions on three-mode datasets developed by Vichi et al. (2007) <doi:10.1007/s00357-007-0006-x>. Also, we provide a convex combination of these two simultaneous procedures called CT3Clus and based on a hyperparameter alpha (alpha in [0,1], with 3FKMeans for alpha=0 and T3Clus for alpha= 1) also developed by Vichi et al. (2007) <doi:10.1007/s00357-007-0006-x>. Furthermore, we implemented the traditional tandem procedures of T3Clus (TWCFTA) and 3FKMeans (TWFCTA) for sequential clustering-factorial decomposition (TWCFTA), and vice-versa (TWFCTA) proposed by P. Arabie and L. Hubert (1996) <doi:10.1007/978-3-642-79999-0_1>.
