An implementation of the parameter cascade method in Ramsay, J. O., Hooker,G., Campbell, D., and Cao, J.

The package also offers variance estimates for parameters of interest based on either bootstrap or Delta method.
Parsimonious Ultrametric Gaussian Mixture Models via grouped coordinate ascent (equivalent to EM) algorithm characterized by the inspection of hierarchical relationships among variables via parsimonious extended ultrametric covariance structures. The methodologies are described in Cavicchia, Vichi, Zaccaria (2024) <doi:10.1007/s11222-024-10405-9>, (2022) <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00488-x> and (2020) <doi:10.1007/s11634-020-00400-z>.
Analysis of seed germination data using the physiological time modelling approach. Includes functions to fit hydrotime and thermal-time models with the traditional approaches of Bradford (1990) <doi:10.1104/pp.94.2.840> and Garcia-Huidobro (1982) <doi:10.1093/jxb/33.2.288>. Allows to fit models to grouped datasets, i.e. datasets containing multiple species, seedlots or experiments.
Spatio-temporal change of support (STCOS) methods are designed for statistical inference on geographic and time domains which differ from those on which the data were observed. In particular, a parsimonious class of STCOS models supporting Gaussian outcomes was introduced by Bradley, Wikle, and Holan <doi:10.1002/sta4.94>. The stcos package contains tools which facilitate use of STCOS models.

This package provides a collection of tools for trade practitioners, including the ability to calibrate different consumer demand systems and simulate the effects of tariffs and quotas under different competitive regimes. These tools are derived from Anderson et al. (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0047-2727(00)00085-2> and Froeb et al. (2003) <doi:10.1016/S0304-4076(02)00166-5>.
Ranking of Alternatives through Functional mapping of criterion sub-intervals into a Single Interval Method is designed to perform multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM), developed by Mališa Žižovic in 2020 (<doi:10.3390/math8061015>). It calculates the final sorted rankings based on a decision matrix where rows represent alternatives and columns represent criteria. The method uses: - A numeric vector of weights for each criterion (the sum of weights must be 1). - A numeric vector of ideal values for each criterion. - A numeric vector of anti-ideal values for each criterion. - Numeric values representing the extent to which the ideal value is preferred over the anti-ideal value, and the extent to which the anti-ideal value is considered worse. The function standardizes the decision matrix, normalizes the data, applies weights, and returns the final sorted rankings.
An implementation of Bayesian model-averaged t-tests that allows users to draw inferences about the presence versus absence of an effect, variance heterogeneity, and potential outliers. The RoBTT package estimates ensembles of models created by combining competing hypotheses and applies Bayesian model averaging using posterior model probabilities. Users can obtain model-averaged posterior distributions and inclusion Bayes factors, accounting for uncertainty in the data-generating process (Maier et al., 2024, <doi:10.3758/s13423-024-02590-5>). The package also provides a truncated likelihood version of the model-averaged t-test, enabling users to exclude potential outliers without introducing bias (Godmann et al., 2024, <doi:10.31234/osf.io/j9f3s>). Users can specify a wide range of informative priors for all parameters of interest. The package offers convenient functions for summary, visualization, and fit diagnostics.
This package can do differential expression analysis of RNA-seq expression profiles with biological replication. It implements a range of statistical methodology based on the negative binomial distributions, including empirical Bayes estimation, exact tests, generalized linear models and quasi-likelihood tests. It be applied to differential signal analysis of other types of genomic data that produce counts, including ChIP-seq, SAGE and CAGE.
This package is a ggplot2 extension. It provides some utility functions that do not entirely fit within the grammar of graphics concept. The package extends ggpplots facets through customisation, by setting individual scales per panel, resizing panels and providing nested facets. It also allows multiple colour, fill scales per plot and hosts a smaller collection of stats, geoms and axis guides.

The Round Robin Database Tool (RRDtool) is a system to store and display time-series data (e.g. network bandwidth, machine-room temperature, server load average). It stores the data in Round Robin Databases (RRDs), a very compact way that will not expand over time. RRDtool processes the extracted data to enforce a certain data density, allowing for useful graphical representation of data values.
Robust normalization and difference calling procedures for ChIP-seq and alike data. Read counts are modeled jointly as a binomial mixture model with a user-specified number of components. A fitted background estimate accounts for the effect of enrichment in certain regions and, therefore, represents an appropriate null hypothesis. This robust background is used to identify significantly enriched or depleted regions.
Use multiple factor analysis to calculate individualized pathway-centric scores of deviation with respect to the sampled population based on multi-omic assays (e.g., RNA-seq, copy number alterations, methylation, etc). Graphical and numerical outputs are provided to identify highly aberrant individuals for a particular pathway of interest, as well as the gene and omics drivers of aberrant multi-omic profiles.
Empirical likelihood-based approximate Bayesian Computation. Approximates the required posterior using empirical likelihood and estimated differential entropy. This is achieved without requiring any specification of the likelihood or estimating equations that connects the observations with the underlying parameters. The procedure is known to be posterior consistent. More details can be found in Chaudhuri, Ghosh, and Kim (2024) <doi:10.1002/SAM.11711>.
Estimate the AUC using a variety of methods as follows: (1) frequentist nonparametric methods based on the Mann-Whitney statistic or kernel methods. (2) frequentist parametric methods using the likelihood ratio test based on higher-order asymptotic results, the signed log-likelihood ratio test, the Wald test, or the approximate t solution to the Behrens-Fisher problem. (3) Bayesian parametric MCMC methods.

Bumblebee colonies grow during worker production, then decline after switching to production of reproductive individuals (drones and gynes). This package provides tools for modeling and visualizing this pattern by identifying a switchpoint with a growth rate before and a decline rate after the switchpoint. The mathematical models fit by bumbl are described in Crone and Williams (2016) <doi:10.1111/ele.12581>.

To avoid the problems caused by OLS estimation of the Two-way Fixed Effects model, this function first estimates the fixed effects and covariates using untreated observations and then in a second stage, estimates the treatment effects.
