Method to perform penalized variance component analysis.

Estimate vaccine efficacy (VE) using immunogenicity data. The inclusion of immunogenicity data in regression models can increase precision in VE. The methods are described in the publications "Elucidating vaccine efficacy using a correlate of protection, demographics, and logistic regression" and "Improving precision of vaccine efficacy evaluation using immune correlate data in time-to-event models" by Julie Dudasova, Zdenek Valenta, and Jeffrey R. Sachs (2024).

The algorithm implemented in this package was designed to quickly estimates the distribution of the log-rank especially for heavy unbalanced groups. VALORATE estimates the null distribution and the p-value of the log-rank test based on a recent formulation. For a given number of alterations that define the size of survival groups, the estimation involves a weighted sum of distributions that are conditional on a co-occurrence term where mutations and events are both present. The estimation of conditional distributions is quite fast allowing the analysis of large datasets in few minutes <https://bioinformatics.mx/index.php/bioinfo-tools/>.

This package provides variable selection for linear models and generalized linear models using Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and model posterior probability (MPP). Given a set of candidate predictors, it evaluates candidate models and returns model-level summaries (BIC and MPP) and predictor-level posterior inclusion probabilities (PIP). For more details see Xu, S., Ferreira, M. A., & Tegge, A. N. (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2510.02628>.

New wavelet methodology (vector wavelet coherence) (Oygur, T., Unal, G, 2020 <doi:10.1007/s40435-020-00706-y>) to handle dynamic co-movements of multivariate time series via extending multiple and quadruple wavelet coherence methodologies. This package can be used to perform multiple wavelet coherence, quadruple wavelet coherence, and n-dimensional vector wavelet coherence analyses.

By creating crowd-sourcing tasks that can be easily posted and results retrieved using Amazon's Mechanical Turk (MTurk) API, researchers can use this solution to validate the quality of topics obtained from unsupervised or semi-supervised learning methods, and the relevance of topic labels assigned. This helps ensure that the topic modeling results are accurate and useful for research purposes. See Ying and others (2022) <doi:10.1101/2023.05.02.538599>.

This package provides a set of functions for data transformations. Transformations are performed on character and numeric data. As the scope of the package is within Student Analytics, there are functions focused around the academic year.

The base tools union() intersect(), etc., follow the algebraic definition that each element of a set must be unique. Since it's often helpful to compare all elements of two vectors, this toolset treats every element as unique for counting purposes. For ease of use, all functions in vecsets have an argument multiple which, when set to FALSE, reverts them to the base::sets (alias for all the items) tools functionality.

An R interface to the Project VoteSmart'<https://justfacts.votesmart.org/> API.

This package provides fast spectral estimation of latent factors in random dot product graphs using the vsp estimator. Under mild assumptions, the vsp estimator is consistent for (degree-corrected) stochastic blockmodels, (degree-corrected) mixed-membership stochastic blockmodels, and degree-corrected overlapping stochastic blockmodels.

Generating functions for both optimal and ordinary difference sequences, and the difference-based estimation functions.

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 provides a collection of functions to make R a more effective viewscape analysis tool for calculating viewscape metrics based on computing the viewable area for given a point/multiple viewpoints and a digital elevation model.The method of calculating viewscape metrics implemented in this package are based on the work of Tabrizian et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.landurbplan.2019.103704>. The algorithm of computing viewshed is based on the work of Franklin & Ray. (1994) <https://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/document?repid=rep1&type=pdf&doi=555780f6f5d7e537eb1edb28862c86d1519af2be>.

This package provides statistical methods for the design and analysis of a calibration study, which aims for calibrating measurements using two different methods.

Extendable R6 file comparison classes, including a shiny app for combining the comparison functionality into a file comparison application. The package idea originates from pharma companies drug development processes, where statisticians and statistical programmers need to review and compare different versions of the same outputs and datasets. The package implementation itself is not tied to any specific industry and can be used in any context for easy file comparisons between different file version sets.

The biomarker data set by Vermeulen et al. (2009) <doi:10.1016/S1470-2045(09)70154-8> is provided. The data source, however, is by Ruijter et al. (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.ymeth.2012.08.011>. The original data set may be downloaded from <https://medischebiologie.nl/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/qpcrdatamethods.zip>. This data set is for a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) experiment that comprises the raw fluorescence data of 24,576 amplification curves. This data set comprises 59 genes of interest and 5 reference genes. Each gene was assessed on 366 neuroblastoma complementary DNA (cDNA) samples and on 18 standard dilution series samples (10-fold 5-point dilution series x 3 replicates + no template controls (NTC) x 3 replicates).
