Compare dissolution profiles with confidence interval of similarity factor f2 using bootstrap methodology as described in the literature, such as Efron and Tibshirani (1993, ISBN:9780412042317), Davison and Hinkley (1997, ISBN:9780521573917), and Shah et al. (1998) <doi:10.1023/A:1011976615750>. The package can also be used to simulate dissolution profiles based on mathematical modelling and multivariate normal distribution.

Fits Bayesian models (amongst others) to dissolution data sets that can be used for dissolution testing. The package was originally constructed to include only the Bayesian models outlined in Pourmohamad et al. (2022) <doi:10.1111/rssc.12535>. However, additional Bayesian and non-Bayesian models (based on bootstrapping and generalized pivotal quanties) have also been added. More models may be added over time.

An implementation of sensitivity and robustness methods in Bayesian networks in R. It includes methods to perform parameter variations via a variety of co-variation schemes, to compute sensitivity functions and to quantify the dissimilarity of two Bayesian networks via distances and divergences. It further includes diagnostic methods to assess the goodness of fit of a Bayesian networks to data, including global, node and parent-child monitors. Reference: M. Leonelli, R. Ramanathan, R.L.

Subgroup analyses are routinely performed in clinical trial analyses. From a methodological perspective, two key issues of subgroup analyses are multiplicity (even if only predefined subgroups are investigated) and the low sample sizes of subgroups which lead to highly variable estimates, see e.g. Yusuf et al (1991) <doi:10.1001/jama.1991.03470010097038>. This package implements subgroup estimates based on Bayesian shrinkage priors, see Carvalho et al (2019) <https://proceedings.mlr.press/v5/carvalho09a.html>. In addition, estimates based on penalized likelihood inference are available, based on Simon et al (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v039.i05>. The corresponding shrinkage based forest plots address the aforementioned issues and can complement standard forest plots in practical clinical trial analyses.

Calculates the prices of European options based on the universal solution provided by Bakshi, Cao and Chen (1997) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-6261.1997.tb02749.x>. This solution considers stochastic volatility, stochastic interest and random jumps. Please cite their work if this package is used.

It includes tools for data checking, model diagnostics and outputs such as life-tables and plots, as described in Colchero, Jones, and Rebke (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.2041-210X.2012.00186.x> and Colchero et al. (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41467-021-23894-3>.

Boosting Regression Quantiles is a component-wise boosting algorithm, that embeds all boosting steps in the well-established framework of quantile regression. It is initialized with the corresponding quantile, uses a quantile-specific learning rate, and uses quantile regression as its base learner. The package implements this algorithm and allows cross-validation and stability selection.

This package provides functions to fit, via Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, the Bessel and Beta regressions to a data set with a bounded continuous response variable. The Bessel regression is a new and robust approach proposed in the literature. The EM version for the well known Beta regression is another major contribution of this package. See details in the references Barreto-Souza, Mayrink and Simas (2022) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12354> and Barreto-Souza, Mayrink and Simas (2020) <arXiv:2003.05157>.

Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data sets by Batsch et al. (2008) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-9-95>. This package provides five data sets, one for each PCR target: (i) rat SLC6A14, (ii) human SLC22A13, (iii) pig EMT, (iv) chicken ETT, and (v) human GAPDH. Each data set comprises a five-point, four-fold dilution series. For each concentration there are three replicates. Each amplification curve is 45 cycles long.

Using a Bayesian estimation procedure, this package fits linear quantile regression models such as linear quantile models, linear quantile mixed models, quantile regression joint models for time-to-event and longitudinal data. The estimation procedure is based on the asymmetric Laplace distribution and the JAGS software is used to get posterior samples (Yang, Luo, DeSantis (2019) <doi:10.1177/0962280218784757>).
