Extraction, preparation, visualisation and analysis of TERN AusPlots ecosystem monitoring data. Direct access to plot-based data on vegetation and soils across Australia, including physical sample barcode numbers. Simple function calls extract the data and merge them into species occurrence matrices for downstream analysis, or calculate things like basal area and fractional cover. TERN AusPlots is a national field plot-based ecosystem surveillance monitoring method and dataset for Australia. The data have been collected across a national network of plots and transects by the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN - <https://www.tern.org.au>), an Australian Government NCRIS-enabled project, and its Ecosystem Surveillance platform (<https://www.tern.org.au/tern-land-observatory/ecosystem-surveillance-and-environmental-monitoring/>).

This package implements adaptive gPCA, as described in: Fukuyama, J. (2017) <arXiv:1702.00501>. The package also includes functionality for applying the method to phyloseq objects so that the method can be easily applied to microbiome data and a shiny app for interactive visualization.

We developed a lightweight machine learning tool for RNA profiling of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), however, it can be used for any problem where multiple classes need to be identified from multi-dimensional data. The methodology is described in Makinen V-P, Rehn J, Breen J, Yeung D, White DL (2022) Multi-cohort transcriptomic subtyping of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, International Journal of Molecular Sciences 23:4574, <doi:10.3390/ijms23094574>. The classifier contains optimized mean profiles of the classes (centroids) as observed in the training data, and new samples are matched to these centroids using the shortest Euclidean distance. Centroids derived from a dataset of 1,598 ALL patients are included, but users can train the models with their own data as well. The output includes both numerical and visual presentations of the classification results. Samples with mixed features from multiple classes or atypical values are also identified.

This package provides the functions for planning and conducting a clinical trial with adaptive sample size determination. Maximal statistical efficiency will be exploited even when dramatic or multiple adaptations are made. Such a trial consists of adaptive determination of sample size at an interim analysis and implementation of frequentist statistical test at the interim and final analysis with a prefixed significance level. The required assumptions for the stage-wise test statistics are independent and stationary increments and normality. Predetermination of adaptation rule is not required.

This package provides functions for implementing the Analysis-of-marginal-Tail-Means (ATM) method, a robust optimization method for discrete black-box optimization. Technical details can be found in Mak and Wu (2018+) <arXiv:1712.03589>. This work was supported by USARO grant W911NF-17-1-0007.

Model adsorption behavior using classical isotherms, including Langmuir, Freundlich, Brunauerâ Emmettâ Teller (BET), and Temkin models. The package supports parameter estimation through both linearized and non-linear fitting techniques and generates high-quality plots for model diagnostics. It is intended for environmental scientists, chemists, and researchers working on adsorption phenomena in soils, water treatment, and material sciences. Functions are compatible with base R and ggplot2 for visualization.

This package provides a dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm for stratigraphic alignment, translated into R from the original published MATLAB code by Hay et al. (2019) <doi:10.1130/G46019.1>. The DTW algorithm incorporates two geologically relevant parameters (g and edge) for augmenting the typical DTW cost matrix, allowing for a range of sedimentologic and chronologic conditions to be explored, as well as the generation of an alignment library (as opposed to a single alignment solution). The g parameter relates to the relative sediment accumulation rate between the two time series records, while the edge parameter relates to the amount of total shared time between the records. Note that this algorithm is used for all DTW alignments in the Align Shiny application, detailed in Hagen et al. (in review).

This package provides a color palette generator inspired by American politics, with colors ranging from blue on the left to gray in the middle and red on the right. A variety of palettes allow for a range of applications from brief discrete scales (e.g., three colors for Democrats, Independents, and Republicans) to continuous interpolated arrays including dozens of shades graded from blue (left) to red (right). This package greatly benefitted from building on the source code (with permission) from Ram and Wickham (2015).

Implementation in R of the alpha-shape of a finite set of points in the three-dimensional space. The alpha-shape generalizes the convex hull and allows to recover the shape of non-convex and even non-connected sets in 3D, given a random sample of points taken into it. Besides the computation of the alpha-shape, this package provides users with functions to compute the volume of the alpha-shape, identify the connected components and facilitate the three-dimensional graphical visualization of the estimated set.

It fits a univariate left, right, or interval censored linear regression model with autoregressive errors, considering the normal or the Student-t distribution for the innovations. It provides estimates and standard errors of the parameters, predicts future observations, and supports missing values on the dependent variable. References used for this package: Schumacher, F.

Multimodal distributions can be modelled as a mixture of components. The model is derived using the Pareto Density Estimation (PDE) for an estimation of the pdf. PDE has been designed in particular to identify groups/classes in a dataset. Precise limits for the classes can be calculated using the theorem of Bayes. Verification of the model is possible by QQ plot, Chi-squared test and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The package is based on the publication of Ultsch, A., Thrun, M.C., Hansen-Goos, O., Lotsch, J. (2015) <DOI:10.3390/ijms161025897>.

Circadian rhythms are rhythms that oscillate about every 24 h, which has been observed in multiple physiological processes including core body temperature, hormone secretion, heart rate, blood pressure, and many others. Measuring circadian rhythm with wearables is based on a principle that there is increased movement during wake periods and reduced movement during sleep periods, and has been shown to be reliable and valid. This package can be used to extract nonparametric circadian metrics like intradaily variability (IV), interdaily stability (IS), and relative amplitude (RA); and parametric cosinor model and extended cosinor model coefficient. Details can be found in Junrui Di et al (2019) <doi:10.1007/s12561-019-09236-4>.

This package provides a collection of psychometric methods to process item metadata and use target assessment and measurement blueprint constraints to assemble a test form. Currently two automatic test assembly (ata) approaches are enabled. For example, the weighted (positive) deviations method, wdm(), proposed by Swanson and Stocking (1993) <doi:10.1177/014662169301700205> was implemented in its full specification allowing for both item selection as well as test form refinement. The linear constraint programming approach, atalp(), uses the linear equation solver by Berkelaar et. al (2014) <http://lpsolve.sourceforge.net/5.5/> to enable a variety of approaches to select items.

Quantile regression with fixed effects solves longitudinal data, considering the individual intercepts as fixed effects. The parametric set of this type of problem used to be huge. Thus penalized methods such as Lasso are currently applied. Adaptive Lasso presents oracle proprieties, which include Gaussianity and correct model selection. Bayesian information criteria (BIC) estimates the optimal tuning parameter lambda. Plot tools are also available.

Amyloid propensity prediction neural network (APPNN) is an amyloidogenicity propensity predictor based on a machine learning approach through recursive feature selection and feed-forward neural networks, taking advantage of newly published sequences with experimental, in vitro, evidence of amyloid formation.

Formalizes spatial support at scale for ecological and geographical analysis. Given points and support polygons, classifies points as "core" (inside original support) or "halo" (inside scaled support but outside original), pruning all others. The default scale produces equal core and halo areas - a geometrically derived choice requiring no tuning. An optional mask enforces hard boundaries such as coastlines. Political borders are treated as soft boundaries with no ecological meaning.
