It solves the problem of Colombian data being issued in different web pages and sources by using functions that allow the user to select the desired database and download it without having to do the exhausting acquisition process.

Can be useful for finding associations among different positions in a position-wise aligned sequence dataset. The approach adopted for finding associations among positions is based on the latent multivariate normal distribution.

This package provides a system containing easy-to-use tools to compute the bioequivalence assessment in the univariate framework using the methods proposed in Boulaguiem et al. (2023) <doi:10.1101/2023.03.11.532179>.

We provide a toolbox to fit a continuous-time fractionally integrated ARMA process (CARFIMA) on univariate and irregularly spaced time series data via both frequentist and Bayesian machinery. A general-order CARFIMA(p, H, q) model for p>q is specified in Tsai and Chan (2005) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2005.00522.x> and it involves p+q+2 unknown model parameters, i.e., p AR parameters, q MA parameters, Hurst parameter H, and process uncertainty (standard deviation) sigma. Also, the model can account for heteroscedastic measurement errors, if the information about measurement error standard deviations is known. The package produces their maximum likelihood estimates and asymptotic uncertainties using a global optimizer called the differential evolution algorithm. It also produces posterior samples of the model parameters via Metropolis-Hastings within a Gibbs sampler equipped with adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo. These fitting procedures, however, may produce numerical errors if p>2. The toolbox also contains a function to simulate discrete time series data from CARFIMA(p, H, q) process given the model parameters and observation times.

Detection of outliers in circular-circular regression models, modifying its and estimating of models parameters.

This package performs biomedical named entity recognition, Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) concept mapping, and negation detection using the Python spaCy', scispaCy', and medspaCy packages, and transforms extracted data into a wide format for inclusion in machine learning models. The development of the scispaCy package is described by Neumann (2019) <doi:10.18653/v1/W19-5034>. The medspacy package uses ConText', an algorithm for determining the context of clinical statements described by Harkema (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.jbi.2009.05.002>. Clinspacy also supports entity embeddings from scispaCy and UMLS cui2vec concept embeddings developed by Beam (2018) <arXiv:1804.01486>.

Generates synthetic data distributions to enable testing various modelling techniques in ways that real data does not allow. Noise can be added in a controlled manner such that the data seems real. This methodology is generic and therefore benefits both the academic and industrial research.

This package provides functions to work with directed (asymmetric) and undirected (symmetric) spatial networks. It makes the creation of connectivity matrices easier, i.e. a binary matrix of dimension n x n, where n is the number of nodes (sampling units) indicating the presence (1) or the absence (0) of an edge (link) between pairs of nodes. Different network objects can be produced by chessboard': node list, neighbor list, edge list, connectivity matrix. It can also produce objects that will be used later in Moran's Eigenvector Maps (Dray et al. (2006) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2006.02.015>) and Asymetric Eigenvector Maps (Blanchet et al. (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2008.04.001>), methods available in the package adespatial (Dray et al. (2023) <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=adespatial>).

This package implements a specific form of segmented linear regression with two independent variables. The visualization of that function looks like a quarter segment of a cowbell giving the package its name. The package has been specifically constructed for the case where minimum and maximum value of the dependent and two independent variables are known a prior, which is usually the case when those values are derived from Likert scales.

This package provides a set of functions for conducting cognitive diagnostic computerized adaptive testing applications (Chen, 2009) <DOI:10.1007/s11336-009-9123-2>). It includes different item selection rules such us the global discrimination index (Kaplan, de la Torre, and Barrada (2015) <DOI:10.1177/0146621614554650>) and the nonparametric selection method (Chang, Chiu, and Tsai (2019) <DOI:10.1177/0146621618813113>), as well as several stopping rules. Functions for generating item banks and responses are also provided. To guide item bank calibration, model comparison at the item level can be conducted using the two-step likelihood ratio test statistic by Sorrel, de la Torre, Abad and Olea (2017) <DOI:10.1027/1614-2241/a000131>.

This package provides functions for performing comparative cohort studies in an observational database in the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) Common Data Model. Can extract all necessary data from a database. This implements large-scale propensity scores (LSPS) as described in Tian et al. (2018) <doi:10.1093/ije/dyy120>, using a large set of covariates, including for example all drugs, diagnoses, procedures, as well as age, comorbidity indexes, etc. Large scale regularized regression is used to fit the propensity and outcome models as described in Suchard et al. (2013) <doi:10.1145/2414416.2414791>. Functions are included for trimming, stratifying, (variable and fixed ratio) matching and weighting by propensity scores, as well as diagnostic functions, such as propensity score distribution plots and plots showing covariate balance before and after matching and/or trimming. Supported outcome models are (conditional) logistic regression, (conditional) Poisson regression, and (stratified) Cox regression. Also included are Kaplan-Meier plots that can adjust for the stratification or matching.

Calculating silhouette information for clusters on circular or linear data using fast algorithms. These algorithms run in linear time on sorted data, in contrast to quadratic time by the definition of silhouette. When used together with the fast and optimal circular clustering method FOCC (Debnath & Song 2021) <doi:10.1109/TCBB.2021.3077573> implemented in R package OptCirClust', circular silhouette can be maximized to find the optimal number of circular clusters; it can also be used to estimate the period of noisy periodical data.

Compute expected shortfall (ES) and Value at Risk (VaR) from a quantile function, distribution function, random number generator, probability density function, or data. ES is also known as Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR). Virtually any continuous distribution can be specified. The functions are vectorized over the arguments. The computations are done directly from the definitions, see e.g. Acerbi and Tasche (2002) <doi:10.1111/1468-0300.00091>. Some support for GARCH models is provided, as well.

Data recorded as paths or trajectories may be suitably described by curves, which are independent of their parametrization. For the space of such curves, the package provides functionalities for reading curves, sampling points on curves, calculating distance between curves and for computing Tukey curve depth of a curve w.r.t. to a bundle of curves. For details see Lafaye De Micheaux, Mozharovskyi, and Vimond (2021) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1901.00180>.
