Fits a model of Pavlovian conditioning phenomena, such as response extinction and spontaneous recovery, and partial reinforcement extinction effects. Competing proximal and distal reward predictions, computed using fast and slow learning rates, combine according to their uncertainties and the recency of information. The resulting mean prediction drives the response rate.

HDF5 is a data model, library and file format for storing and managing large amounts of data. This package provides a nearly feature complete, object oriented wrapper for the HDF5 API using R6 classes. Additionally, functionality is added so that HDF5 objects behave very similar to their corresponding R counterparts.

The functions are designed to calculate the most widely-used county-level variables in agricultural production or agricultural-climatic and weather analyses. To operate some functions in this package needs download of the bulk PRISM raster. See the examples, testing versions and more details from: <https://github.com/ysd2004/acdcR>.

Buckley-James regression for right-censoring survival data with high-dimensional covariates. Implementations for survival data include boosting with componentwise linear least squares, componentwise smoothing splines, regression trees and MARS. Other high-dimensional tools include penalized regression for survival data. See Wang and Wang (2010) <doi:10.2202/1544-6115.1550>.

This package implements the general template for collaborative targeted maximum likelihood estimation. It also provides several commonly used C-TMLE instantiation, like the vanilla/scalable variable-selection C-TMLE (Ju et al.

This package provides a robust constrained L1 minimization method for estimating a large sparse inverse covariance matrix (aka precision matrix), and recovering its support for building graphical models. The computation uses linear programming. The method was published in TT Cai, W Liu, X Luo (2011) <doi:10.1198/jasa.2011.tm10155>.

Contrast analysis for factorial designs provides an alternative to the traditional ANOVA approach, offering the distinct advantage of testing targeted hypotheses. The foundation of this package is primarily rooted in the works of Rosenthal, Rosnow, and Rubin (2000, ISBN: 978-0521659802) as well as Sedlmeier and Renkewitz (2018, ISBN: 978-3868943214).

This package provides a workflow of (a) meta-clustering based on inter-group similarity measures and (b) a ground-truth-free test metric to assess the biological correctness of integration in real datasets. See Hu Z, Ahmed A, Yau C (2021) <doi:10.1101/2021.03.29.437525> for more details.

The purpose of this package is to provide a comprehensive R interface to the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer Cropping Systems Model (DSSAT-CSM; see <https://dssat.net> for more information). The package provides cross-platform functions to read and write input files, run DSSAT-CSM, and read output files.

Mechanistically models/predicts the phenology (macro-phases) of 10 crop plants (trained on a big dataset over 80 years derived from the German weather service (DWD) <https://opendata.dwd.de/>). Can be applied for remote sensing purposes, dynamically check the best subset of available covariates for the given dataset and crop.

Calculates optical parameters of crystals like the optical axes, the axis angle 2V, and the direction of the principal axes of the indicatrix from extinction angles measured on a spindle stage mounted on a polarisation microscope stage.

This package implements a computational framework to predict microbial community-based metabolic profiles with O2PLS model. It provides procedures of model training and prediction. Paired microbiome and metabolome data are needed for modeling, and the trained model can be applied to predict metabolites of analogous environments using new microbial feature abundances.

An implementation of the iterative proportional fitting (IPFP), maximum likelihood, minimum chi-square and weighted least squares procedures for updating a N-dimensional array with respect to given target marginal distributions (which, in turn can be multidimensional). The package also provides an application of the IPFP to simulate multivariate Bernoulli distributions.
