Spatio-temporal change of support (STCOS) methods are designed for statistical inference on geographic and time domains which differ from those on which the data were observed. In particular, a parsimonious class of STCOS models supporting Gaussian outcomes was introduced by Bradley, Wikle, and Holan <doi:10.1002/sta4.94>. The stcos package contains tools which facilitate use of STCOS models.

Predicts the presence of signal peptides in eukaryotic protein using hidden semi-Markov models. The implemented algorithm can be accessed from both the command line and GUI.

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.

Generate programmable surveys using markdown and R code chunks. Surveys are composed of two files: a survey.qmd Quarto file defining the survey content (pages, questions, etc), and an app.R file defining a shiny app with global settings (libraries, database configuration, etc.) and server configuration options (e.g., conditional skipping / display, etc.). Survey data collected from respondents is stored in a PostgreSQL database. Features include controls for conditional skip logic (skip to a page based on an answer to a question), conditional display logic (display a question based on an answer to a question), a customizable progress bar, and a wide variety of question types, including multiple choice (single choice and multiple choices), select, text, numeric, multiple choice buttons, text area, and dates. Because the surveys render into a shiny app, designers can also leverage the reactive capabilities of shiny to create dynamic and interactive surveys.

This package provides tools to simulate and analyze survival data with interval-, left-, right-, and uncensored observations under common parametric distributions, including "Weibull", "Exponential", "Log-Normal", "Log-Logistic", "Gamma", "Gompertz", "Normal", "Logistic", and "EMV". The package supports both direct maximum likelihood estimation and imputation-based methods, making it suitable for methodological research, simulation benchmarking, and teaching. A web-based companion app is also available for demonstration purposes.

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 provides tools to simulate realistic raw case data for an epidemic in the form of line lists and contacts using a branching process. Simulated outbreaks are parameterised with epidemiological parameters and can have age-structured populations, age-stratified hospitalisation and death risk and time-varying case fatality risk.

Package performs Cox regression and survival distribution function estimation when the survival times are subject to double truncation. In case that the survival and truncation times are quasi-independent, the estimation procedure for each method involves inverse probability weighting, where the weights correspond to the inverse of the selection probabilities and are estimated using the survival times and truncation times only. A test for checking this independence assumption is also included in this package. The functions available in this package for Cox regression, survival distribution function estimation, and testing independence under double truncation are based on the following methods, respectively: Rennert and Xie (2018) <doi:10.1111/biom.12809>, Shen (2010) <doi:10.1007/s10463-008-0192-2>, Martin and Betensky (2005) <doi:10.1198/016214504000001538>. When the survival times are dependent on at least one of the truncation times, an EM algorithm is employed to obtain point estimates for the regression coefficients. The standard errors are calculated using the bootstrap method. See Rennert and Xie (2022) <doi:10.1111/biom.13451>. Both the independent and dependent cases assume no censoring is present in the data. Please contact Lior Rennert <liorr@clemson.edu> for questions regarding function coxDT and Yidan Shi <yidan.shi@pennmedicine.upenn.edu> for questions regarding function coxDTdep.

Computes segregation indices, including the Index of Dissimilarity, as well as the information-theoretic indices developed by Theil (1971) <isbn:978-0471858454>, namely the Mutual Information Index (M) and Theil's Information Index (H). The M, further described by Mora and Ruiz-Castillo (2011) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9531.2011.01237.x> and Frankel and Volij (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.jet.2010.10.008>, is a measure of segregation that is highly decomposable. The package provides tools to decompose the index by units and groups (local segregation), and by within and between terms. The package also provides a method to decompose differences in segregation as described by Elbers (2021) <doi:10.1177/0049124121986204>. The package includes standard error estimation by bootstrapping, which also corrects for small sample bias. The package also contains functions for visualizing segregation patterns.
