Conversion of characters from unsupported Vietnamese character encodings to Unicode characters. These Vietnamese encodings (TCVN3, VISCII, VPS) are not natively supported in R and lead to printing of wrong characters and garbled text (mojibake). This package fixes that problem and provides readable output with the correct Unicode characters (with or without diacritics).

Estimates hierarchical models using variational inference. At present, it can estimate logistic, linear, and negative binomial models. It can accommodate models with an arbitrary number of random effects and requires no integration to estimate. It also provides the ability to improve the quality of the approximation using marginal augmentation. Goplerud (2022) <doi:10.1214/21-BA1266> and Goplerud (2024) <doi:10.1017/S0003055423000035> provide details on the variational algorithms.

Under a different representation of the multivariate normal (MVN) probability, we can use the Vecchia approximation to sample the integrand at a linear complexity with respect to n. Additionally, both the SOV algorithm from Genz (92) and the exponential-tilting method from Botev (2017) can be adapted to linear complexity. The reference for the method implemented in this package is Jian Cao and Matthias Katzfuss (2024) "Linear-Cost Vecchia Approximation of Multivariate Normal Probabilities" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2311.09426>. Two major references for the development of our method are Alan Genz (1992) "Numerical Computation of Multivariate Normal Probabilities" <doi:10.1080/10618600.1992.10477010> and Z. I. Botev (2017) "The Normal Law Under Linear Restrictions: Simulation and Estimation via Minimax Tilting" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1603.04166>.

Generates interactive plots for analysing and visualising three-class high dimensional data. It is particularly suited to visualising differences in continuous attributes such as gene/protein/biomarker expression levels between three groups. Differential gene/biomarker expression analysis between two classes is typically shown as a volcano plot. However, with three groups this type of visualisation is particularly difficult to interpret. This package generates 3D volcano plots and 3-way polar plots for easier interpretation of three-class data.

This package implements methods for inference on potential waning of vaccine efficacy and for estimation of vaccine efficacy at a user-specified time after vaccination based on data from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled vaccine trial in which participants may be unblinded and placebo subjects may be crossed over to the study vaccine. The methods also allow adjustment for possible confounding via inverse probability weighting through specification of models for the trial entry process, unblinding mechanisms, and the probability an unblinded placebo participant accepts study vaccine: Tsiatis, A. A. and Davidian, M. (2022) <doi:10.1111/biom.13509>.
