Implementation of the SIC epsilon-telescope method, either using single or distributional (multiparameter) regression. Includes classical regression with normally distributed errors and robust regression, where the errors are from the Laplace distribution. The "smooth generalized normal distribution" is used, where the estimation of an additional shape parameter allows the user to move smoothly between both types of regression. See O'Neill and Burke (2022) "Robust Distributional Regression with Automatic Variable Selection" for more details. <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2212.07317>. This package also contains the data analyses from O'Neill and Burke (2023).

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>.

This package implements various methods for eliciting a probability distribution for a single parameter from an expert or a group of experts. The expert provides a small number of probability judgements, corresponding to points on his or her cumulative distribution function. A range of parametric distributions can then be fitted and displayed, with feedback provided in the form of fitted probabilities and percentiles. For multiple experts, a weighted linear pool can be calculated. Also includes functions for eliciting beliefs about population distributions; eliciting multivariate distributions using a Gaussian copula; eliciting a Dirichlet distribution; eliciting distributions for variance parameters in a random effects meta-analysis model; survival extrapolation. R Shiny apps for most of the methods are included.

Carries out a two-level sample selection where the possibility of an initially selected site not wanting to participate is anticipated, and the site is optimally replaced. The procedure aims to reduce bias (and/or loss of external validity) with respect to the target population. In selecting units and sub-units, sitepickR uses the cube method developed by Deville & Tillé', (2004) <http://www.math.helsinki.fi/msm/banocoss/Deville_Tille_2004.pdf> and described in Tillé (2011) <https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/pub/12-001-x/2011002/article/11609-eng.pdf?st=5-sx8Q8n>. The cube method is a probability sampling method that is designed to satisfy criteria for balance between the sample and the population. Recent research has shown that this method performs well in simulations for studies of educational programs (see Fay & Olsen (2021, under review). To implement the cube method, sitepickR uses the sampling R package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=sampling>. To implement statistical matching, sitepickR uses the MatchIt R package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=MatchIt>.

This package performs parametric and non-parametric estimation and simulation for multi-state discrete-time semi-Markov processes. For the parametric estimation, several discrete distributions are considered for the sojourn times: Uniform, Geometric, Poisson, Discrete Weibull and Negative Binomial. The non-parametric estimation concerns the sojourn time distributions, where no assumptions are done on the shape of distributions. Moreover, the estimation can be done on the basis of one or several sample paths, with or without censoring at the beginning or/and at the end of the sample paths. The implemented methods are described in Barbu, V.S., Limnios, N. (2008) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-73173-5>, Barbu, V.S., Limnios, N. (2008) <doi:10.1080/10485250701261913> and Trevezas, S., Limnios, N. (2011) <doi:10.1080/10485252.2011.555543>. Estimation and simulation of discrete-time k-th order Markov chains are also considered.
