Implementation of the exact, normal approximation, and simulation-based methods for computing the probability mass function (pmf) and cumulative distribution function (cdf) of the Poisson-Multinomial distribution, together with a random number generator for the distribution. The exact method is based on multi-dimensional fast Fourier transformation (FFT) of the characteristic function of the Poisson-Multinomial distribution. The normal approximation method uses a multivariate normal distribution to approximate the pmf of the distribution based on central limit theorem. The simulation method is based on the law of large numbers. Details about the methods are available in Lin, Wang, and Hong (2022) <DOI:10.1007/s00180-022-01299-0>.

Multi-group (dynamical) structural equation models in combination with confirmatory network models from cross-sectional, time-series and panel data <doi:10.31234/osf.io/8ha93>. Allows for confirmatory testing and fit as well as exploratory model search.

Producing the time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve through parametric approaches. Tools for generating random data, fitting, predicting and check goodness of fit are prepared. The methods are developed from the theoretical framework of proportional hazard model and copula functions. Using this package, users can now simulate parametric time-dependent ROC and run experiment to understand the behavior of the curve under different scenario.

In the era of big data, data redundancy and distributed characteristics present novel challenges to data analysis. This package introduces a method for estimating optimal subsets of redundant distributed data, based on PPCDT (Conjunction of Power and P-value in Distributed Settings). Leveraging PPC technology, this approach can efficiently extract valuable information from redundant distributed data and determine the optimal subset. Experimental results demonstrate that this method not only enhances data quality and utilization efficiency but also assesses its performance effectively. The philosophy of the package is described in Guo G. (2020) <doi:10.1007/s00180-020-00974-4>.

This is an implementation of the partial profile score feature selection (PPSFS) approach to generalized linear (interaction) models. The PPSFS is highly scalable even for ultra-high-dimensional feature space. See the paper by Xu, Luo and Chen (2022) <doi:10.4310/21-SII706>.

This package provides functions and datasets to support Valliant, Dever, and Kreuter (2018), <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-93632-1>, "Practical Tools for Designing and Weighting Survey Samples". Contains functions for sample size calculation for survey samples using stratified or clustered one-, two-, and three-stage sample designs, and single-stage audit sample designs. Functions are included that will group geographic units accounting for distances apart and measures of size. Other functions compute variance components for multistage designs, sample sizes in two-phase designs, and a stopping rule for ending data collection. A number of example data sets are included.

This package provides functions to prepare rankings data and fit the Plackett-Luce model jointly attributed to Plackett (1975) <doi:10.2307/2346567> and Luce (1959, ISBN:0486441369). The standard Plackett-Luce model is generalized to accommodate ties of any order in the ranking. Partial rankings, in which only a subset of items are ranked in each ranking, are also accommodated in the implementation. Disconnected/weakly connected networks implied by the rankings may be handled by adding pseudo-rankings with a hypothetical item. Optionally, a multivariate normal prior may be set on the log-worth parameters and ranker reliabilities may be incorporated as proposed by Raman and Joachims (2014) <doi:10.1145/2623330.2623654>. Maximum a posteriori estimation is used when priors are set. Methods are provided to estimate standard errors or quasi-standard errors for inference as well as to fit Plackett-Luce trees. See the package website or vignette for further details.

The primary goal of phase I clinical trials is to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). To reach this objective, we introduce a new design for phase I clinical trials, the posterior predictive (PoP) design. The PoP design is an innovative model-assisted design that is as simply as the conventional algorithmic designs as its decision rules can be pre-tabulated prior to the onset of trial, but is of more flexibility of selecting diverse target toxicity rates and cohort sizes. The PoP design has desirable properties, such as coherence and consistency. Moreover, the PoP design provides better empirical performance than the BOIN and Keyboard design with respect to high average probabilities of choosing the MTD and slightly lower risk of treating patients at subtherapeutic or overly toxic doses.

Generates multivariate data with count and continuous variables with a pre-specified correlation matrix. The count and continuous variables are assumed to have Poisson and normal marginals, respectively. The data generation mechanism is a combination of the normal to anything principle and a connection between Poisson and normal correlations in the mixture. The details of the method are explained in Yahav et al. (2012) <DOI:10.1002/asmb.901>.

Oak declines are complex disease syndromes and consist of many visual indicators that include aspects of tree size, crown condition and trunk condition. This can cause difficulty in the manual classification of symptomatic and non-symptomatic trees from what is in reality a broad spectrum of oak tree health condition. Two phenotypic oak decline indexes have been developed to quantitatively describe and differentiate oak decline syndromes in Quercus robur. This package provides a toolkit to generate these decline indexes from phenotypic descriptors using the machine learning algorithm random forest. The methodology for generating these indexes is outlined in Finch et al. (2121) <doi:10.1016/j.foreco.2021.118948>.

This program contains a function to find the peaks and troughs of a data set. It filters the set of peaks to remove noise based on the expected height and expected slope of a peak. Peaks that are too short (caused by random noise), or too shallow (part of the background data) are filtered out.

Permutation (randomisation) test for single-case phase design data with two phases (e.g., pre- and post-treatment). Correction for dependency of observations is done through stepwise resampling the time series while varying the distance between observations. The required distance 0,1,2,3.. is determined based on repeated dependency testing while stepwise increasing the distance. In preparation: Vroegindeweij et al. "A Permutation distancing test for single-case observational AB phase design data: A Monte Carlo simulation study".

Computes nonparametric p-values for the potential class memberships of new observations as well as cross-validated p-values for the training data. The p-values are based on permutation tests applied to an estimated Bayesian likelihood ratio, using a plug-in statistic for the Gaussian model, k nearest neighbors', weighted nearest neighbors or penalized logistic regression'. Additionally, it provides graphical displays and quantitative analyses of the p-values.

The functions are designed to find the efficient mean-variance frontier or portfolio weights for static portfolio (called Markowitz portfolio) analysis in resource economics or nature conservation. Using the nonlinear programming solver ('Rsolnp'), this package deals with the quadratic minimization of the variance-covariances without shorting (i.e., non-negative portfolio weights) studied in Ando and Mallory (2012) <doi:10.1073/pnas.1114653109>. See the examples, testing versions, and more details from: <https://github.com/ysd2004/portn>.
