Description: Provides affine-invariant, distribution-free tests of multivariate independence, applied either directly to observed data or to estimated independent components. In the latter case, the procedures can be used to assess the validity of independent component models. The tests are based on L2-type distances between characteristic functions, with inference carried out using permutation or bootstrap resampling schemes. The methods are described in Hallin et al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.07632>.

This package provides easy-to-use tools for data analysis and visualization for hyperspectral remote sensing (also known as imaging spectroscopy), with a particular focus on vegetation hyperspectral data analysis. It consists of a set of functions, ranging from the organization of hyperspectral data in the proper data structure for spectral feature selection, calculation of vegetation index, multivariate analysis, as well as to the visualization of spectra and results of analysis in the ggplot2 style.

This package implements the diagnostic "theta" developed in Poetscher and Preinerstorfer (2020) "How Reliable are Bootstrap-based Heteroskedasticity Robust Tests?" <arXiv:2005.04089>. This diagnostic can be used to detect and weed out bootstrap-based procedures that provably have size equal to one for a given testing problem. The implementation covers a large variety of bootstrap-based procedures, cf. the above mentioned article for details. A function for computing bootstrap p-values is provided.

Fit Bayesian Gaussian graphical models. The methods are separated into two Bayesian approaches for inference: hypothesis testing and estimation. There are extensions for confirmatory hypothesis testing, comparing Gaussian graphical models, and node wise predictability. These methods were recently introduced in the Gaussian graphical model literature, including Williams (2019) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/x8dpr>, Williams and Mulder (2019) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/ypxd8>, Williams, Rast, Pericchi, and Mulder (2019) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/yt386>.

Developed for the following tasks. Simulating, computing maximum likelihood estimator, computing the Fisher information matrix, computing goodness-of-fit measures, and correcting bias of the ML estimator for a wide range of distributions fitted to units placed on progressive type-I interval censoring and progressive type-II censoring plans. The methods of Cox and Snell (1968) <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1968.tb00724.x> and bootstrap method for computing the bias-corrected maximum likelihood estimator.

Explore neural networks in a layer oriented way, the framework is intended to give the user total control of the internals of a net without much effort. Use classes like PerceptronLayer to create a layer of Percetron neurons, and specify how many you want. The package does all the tricky stuff internally leaving you focused in what you want. I wrote this package during a neural networks course to help me with the problem set.

The Gaussian location-scale regression model is a multi-predictor model with explanatory variables for the mean (= location) and the standard deviation (= scale) of a response variable. This package implements maximum likelihood and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) inference (using algorithms from Girolami and Calderhead (2011) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2010.00765.x> and Nesterov (2009) <doi:10.1007/s10107-007-0149-x>), a parametric bootstrap algorithm, and diagnostic plots for the model class.

This package provides methods to generate a design in the input space that sequentially fills the output space of a black-box function. The output space-filling designs are helpful in inverse design or feature-based modeling problems. See Wang, Shangkun, Adam P. Generale, Surya R. Kalidindi, and V. Roshan Joseph. (2024), Sequential designs for filling output spaces, Technometrics, 66, 65â 76. for details. This work is supported by U.S. National Foundation grant CMMI-1921646.

This package implements the Quantile Composite-based Path Modeling approach (Davino and Vinzi, 2016 <doi:10.1007/s11634-015-0231-9>; Dolce et al., 2021 <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00469-0>). The method complements the traditional PLS Path Modeling approach, analyzing the entire distribution of outcome variables and, therefore, overcoming the classical exploration of only average effects. It exploits quantile regression to investigate changes in the relationships among constructs and between constructs and observed variables.

This package implements the methodological developments found in Hermes, van Heerwaarden, and Behrouzi (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2308.04325>, and allows for the statistical modeling of asymmetric between-location effects, as well as within-location effects using spatial autoregressive graphical models. The package allows for the generation of spatial weight matrices to capture asymmetric effects for strip-type intercropping designs, although it can handle any type of spatial data commonly found in other sciences.

This package implements the Simple Non-Iterative Clustering algorithm for superpixel segmentation of multi-band images, as introduced by Achanta and Susstrunk (2017) <doi:10.1109/CVPR.2017.520>. Supports both standard image arrays and geospatial raster objects, with a design that can be extended to other spatial data frameworks. The algorithm groups adjacent pixels into compact, coherent regions based on spectral similarity and spatial proximity. A high-performance implementation supports images with arbitrary spectral bands.

Analyzes longitudinal data of HIV decline in patients on antiretroviral therapy using the canonical biphasic exponential decay model (pioneered, for example, by work in Perelson et al. (1997) <doi:10.1038/387188a0>; and Wu and Ding (1999) <doi:10.1111/j.0006-341X.1999.00410.x>). Model fitting and parameter estimation are performed, with additional options to calculate the time to viral suppression. Plotting and summary tools are also provided for fast assessment of model results.

Estimating the disparity between two groups based on the extended model of the Peters-Belson (PB) method. Our model is the first work on the longitudinal data, and also can set a varying variable to find the complicated association between other variables and the varying variable. Our work is an extension of the Peters-Belson method which was originally published in Peters (1941)<doi:10.1080/00220671.1941.10881036> and Belson (1956)<doi:10.2307/2985420>.

Calculate the win statistics (win ratio, net benefit and win odds) for prioritized multiple endpoints, plot the win statistics and win proportions over study time if at least one time-to-event endpoint is analyzed, and simulate datasets with dependent endpoints. The package can handle any type of outcomes (continuous, ordinal, binary, time-to-event) and allow users to perform stratified analysis, inverse probability of censoring weighting (IPCW) and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis.

This package provides a convenient data set, a set of helper functions, and a benchmark function for economically (profit) driven wind farm layout optimization. This enables researchers in the field of the NP-hard (non-deterministic polynomial-time hard) problem of wind farm layout optimization to focus on their optimization methodology contribution and also provides a realistic benchmark setting for comparability among contributions.

This package lets you build complex Structured Query Language (SQL) queries dynamically. Classes and/or factory functions are used to produce a syntax tree from which the final character string is generated. Strings and identifiers are automatically quoted using the right quotes, using either American National Standards Institute (ANSI) quoting or the quoting style of an existing database connector. Style can be configured to set uppercase/lowercase for keywords, remove unnecessary spaces, or omit optional keywords.

Statistical tools for ChIP-seq data analysis. The package includes the statistical method described in Kaufmann et al. (2009) PLoS Biology: 7(4):e1000090. Briefly, Taking the average DNA fragment size subjected to sequencing into account, the software calculates genomic single-nucleotide read-enrichment values. After normalization, sample and control are compared using a test based on the Poisson distribution. Test statistic thresholds to control the false discovery rate are obtained through random permutation.

Augmented Regression with General Online data (ARGO) for accurate estimation of influenza epidemics in United States on national level, regional level and state level. It replicates the method introduced in paper Yang, S., Santillana, M. and Kou, S.C. (2015) <doi:10.1073/pnas.1515373112>; Ning, S., Yang, S. and Kou, S.C.

This package implements cross-validation methods for linear and ridge regression models. The package provides grid-based selection of the ridge penalty parameter using Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) and supports K-fold cross-validation, Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation (LOOCV), and Generalized Cross-Validation (GCV). Computations are implemented in C++ via RcppArmadillo with optional parallelization using RcppParallel'. The methods are suitable for high-dimensional settings where the number of predictors exceeds the number of observations.

Bindings to Google's C++ library Compact Language Detector 2 (see <https://github.com/cld2owners/cld2#readme> for more information). Probabilistically detects over 80 languages in plain text or HTML. For mixed-language input it returns the top three detected languages and their approximate proportion of the total classified text bytes (e.g. 80% English and 20% French out of 1000 bytes). There is also a cld3 package on CRAN which uses a neural network model instead.

This framework enables forecasting and extrapolating measures of conditional risk (e.g. of extreme or unprecedented events), including quantiles and exceedance probabilities, using extreme value statistics and flexible neural network architectures. It allows for capturing complex multivariate dependencies, including dependencies between observations, such as sequential dependence (time-series). The methodology was introduced in Pasche and Engelke (2024) <doi:10.1214/24-AOAS1907> (also available in preprint: Pasche and Engelke (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2208.07590>).
