EQ-5D is a standard instrument (<https://euroqol.org/eq-5d-instruments/>) that measures the quality of life often used in clinical and economic evaluations of health care technologies. Both adult versions of EQ-5D (EQ-5D-3L and EQ-5D-5L) contain a descriptive system and visual analog scale. The descriptive system measures the patient's health in 5 dimensions: the 5L versions has 5 levels and 3L version has 3 levels. The descriptive system scores are usually converted to index values using country specific values sets (that incorporates the country preferences). This package allows the calculation of both descriptive system scores to the index value scores. The value sets for EQ-5D-3L are from the references mentioned in the website <https://euroqol.org/eq-5d-instruments/eq-5d-3l-about/valuation/> The value sets for EQ-5D-3L for a total of 31 countries are used for the valuation (see the user guide for a complete list of references). The value sets for EQ-5D-5L are obtained from references mentioned in the <https://euroqol.org/eq-5d-instruments/eq-5d-5l-about/valuation-standard-value-sets/> and other sources. The value sets for EQ-5D-5L for a total of 17 countries are used for the valuation (see the user guide for a complete list of references). The package can also be used to map 5L scores to 3L index values for 10 countries: Denmark, France, Germany, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, Thailand, UK, USA, and Zimbabwe. The value set and method for mapping are obtained from Van Hout et al (2012) <doi: 10.1016/j.jval.2012.02.008>.

This package implements variable screening techniques for ultra-high dimensional regression settings. Techniques for independent (iid) data, varying-coefficient models, and longitudinal data are implemented. The package currently contains three screen functions: screenIID(), screenLD() and screenVCM(), and six methods for simulating dataset: simulateDCSIS(), simulateLD, simulateMVSIS(), simulateMVSISNY(), simulateSIRS() and simulateVCM(). The package is based on the work of Li-Ping ZHU, Lexin LI, Runze LI, and Li-Xing ZHU (2011) <DOI:10.1198/jasa.2011.tm10563>, Runze LI, Wei ZHONG, & Liping ZHU (2012) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2012.695654>, Jingyuan LIU, Runze LI, & Rongling WU (2014) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2013.850086> Hengjian CUI, Runze LI, & Wei ZHONG (2015) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2014.920256>, and Wanghuan CHU, Runze LI and Matthew REIMHERR (2016) <DOI:10.1214/16-AOAS912>.

This package provides a dedicated viral-explainer model tool designed to empower researchers in the field of HIV research, particularly in viral load and CD4 (Cluster of Differentiation 4) lymphocytes regression modeling. Drawing inspiration from the tidymodels framework for rigorous model building of Max Kuhn and Hadley Wickham (2020) <https://www.tidymodels.org>, and the DALEXtra tool for explainability by Przemyslaw Biecek (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2009.13248>. It aims to facilitate interpretable and reproducible research in biostatistics and computational biology for the benefit of understanding HIV dynamics.

Mainly data sets to accompany the VGAM package and the book "Vector Generalized Linear and Additive Models: With an Implementation in R" (Yee, 2015) <DOI:10.1007/978-1-4939-2818-7>. These are used to illustrate vector generalized linear and additive models (VGLMs/VGAMs), and associated models (Reduced-Rank VGLMs, Quadratic RR-VGLMs, Row-Column Interaction Models, and constrained and unconstrained ordination models in ecology). This package now contains some old VGAM family functions which have been replaced by newer ones (often because they are now special cases).

Using frequency matrices, very low frequency variants (VLFs) are assessed for amino acid and nucleotide sequences. The VLFs are then compared to see if they occur in only one member of a species, singleton VLFs, or if they occur in multiple members of a species, shared VLFs. The amino acid and nucleotide VLFs are then compared to see if they are concordant with one another. Amino acid VLFs are also assessed to determine if they lead to a change in amino acid residue type, and potential changes to protein structures. Based on Stoeckle and Kerr (2012) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0043992> and Phillips et al. (2023) <doi:10.3897/BDJ.11.e96480>.

This package provides a Variational Bayesian algorithm for high-dimensional multi-source heterogeneous linear models. More details have been written up in a paper submitted to the journal Statistics in Medicine, and the details of variational Bayesian methods can be found in Ray and Szabo (2021) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2020.1847121>. It simultaneously performs parameter estimation and variable selection. The algorithm supports two model settings: (1) local models, where variable selection is only applied to homogeneous coefficients, and (2) global models, where variable selection is also performed on heterogeneous coefficients. Two forms of Spike-and-Slab priors are available: the Laplace distribution and the Gaussian distribution as the Slab component.

This package provides probability density, cumulative distribution, quantile, and random number generation functions for the Vasicek distribution. In addition, two functions are available for fitting Generalized Additive Models for Location, Scale and Shape introduced by Rigby and Stasinopoulos (2005, <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9876.2005.00510.x>). Some functions are written in C++ using Rcpp', developed by Eddelbuettel and Francois (2011, <doi:10.18637/jss.v040.i08>).

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.

The qda() function from package MASS is extended to calculate a weighted linear (LDA) and quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA) by changing the group variances and group means based on cell-wise uncertainties. The uncertainties can be derived e.g. through relative errors for each individual measurement (cell), not only row-wise or column-wise uncertainties. The method can be applied compositional data (e.g. portions of substances, concentrations) and non-compositional data.

Models categorical time series through a Markov Chain when a) covariates are predictors for transitioning into the next state/symbol and b) when the dependence in the past states has variable length. The probability of transitioning to the next state in the Markov Chain is defined by a multinomial regression whose parameters depend on the past states of the chain and, moreover, the number of states in the past needed to predict the next state also depends on the observed states themselves.
