Currently we have functionalities for simplifying overlapping time intervals, Charlson comorbidity score constructors for Danish data, getting frequency for multiple variables, getting standardized output from logistic and log-linear regressions, sibling design linear regression functionalities a method for calculating the confidence intervals for functions of parameters from a GLM, Bayes equivalent for hypothesis testing with asymptotic Bayes factor, and several help functions for generalized random forest analysis using grf'.

This package provides tools for simulating mathematical models of infectious disease dynamics. Epidemic model classes include deterministic compartmental models, stochastic individual-contact models, and stochastic network models. Network models use the robust statistical methods of exponential-family random graph models (ERGMs) from the Statnet suite of software packages in R. Standard templates for epidemic modeling include SI, SIR, and SIS disease types. EpiModel features an API for extending these templates to address novel scientific research aims. Full methods for EpiModel are detailed in Jenness et al. (2018, <doi:10.18637/jss.v084.i08>).

This package provides methods to simulate and analyse the size and length of branching processes with an arbitrary offspring distribution. These can be used, for example, to analyse the distribution of chain sizes or length of infectious disease outbreaks, as discussed in Farrington et al. (2003) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/4.2.279>.

This extension of the pattern-oriented modeling framework of the poems package provides a collection of modules and functions customized for modeling disease transmission on a population scale in a spatiotemporally explicit manner.

Using variational techniques we address some epidemiological problems as the incidence curve decomposition by inverting the renewal equation as described in Alvarez et al. (2021) <doi:10.1073/pnas.2105112118> and Alvarez et al. (2022) <doi:10.3390/biology11040540> or the estimation of the functional relationship between epidemiological indicators. We also propose a learning method for the short time forecast of the trend incidence curve as described in Morel et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.11.05.22281904>.

Analysis and visualization of plant disease progress curve data. Functions for fitting two-parameter population dynamics models (exponential, monomolecular, logistic and Gompertz) to proportion data for single or multiple epidemics using either linear or no-linear regression. Statistical and visual outputs are provided to aid in model selection. Synthetic curves can be simulated for any of the models given the parameters. See Laurence V. Madden, Gareth Hughes, and Frank van den Bosch (2007) <doi:10.1094/9780890545058> for further information on the methods.

This package provides a flexible framework for Agent-Based Models (ABM), the epiworldR package provides methods for prototyping disease outbreaks and transmission models using a C++ backend, making it very fast. It supports multiple epidemiological models, including the Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS), Susceptible-Infected-Removed (SIR), Susceptible-Exposed-Infected-Removed (SEIR), and others, involving arbitrary mitigation policies and multiple-disease models. Users can specify infectiousness/susceptibility rates as a function of agents features, providing great complexity for the model dynamics. Furthermore, epiworldR is ideal for simulation studies featuring large populations.

DNA methylation (6mA) is a major epigenetic process by which alteration in gene expression took place without changing the DNA sequence. Predicting these sites in-vitro is laborious, time consuming as well as costly. This EpiSemble package is an in-silico pipeline for predicting DNA sequences containing the 6mA sites. It uses an ensemble-based machine learning approach by combining Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Forest (RF) and Gradient Boosting approach to predict the sequences with 6mA sites in it. This package has been developed by using the concept of Chen et al. (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz015>.
