Multiple and generalized nonparametric regression using smoothing spline ANOVA models and generalized additive models, as described in Helwig (2020) <doi:10.4135/9781526421036885885>. Includes support for Gaussian and non-Gaussian responses, smoothers for multiple types of predictors (including random intercepts), interactions between smoothers of mixed types, eight different methods for smoothing parameter selection, and flexible tools for diagnostics, inference, and prediction.
Expands quoted language by recursively replacing any symbol that points to quoted language with the language it points to. The recursive process continues until only symbols that point to non-language objects remain. The resulting quoted language can then be evaluated normally. This differs from the traditional quote'/'eval pattern because it resolves intermediate language objects that would interfere with evaluation.
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>.
An implementation of the parameter cascade method in Ramsay, J. O., Hooker,G., Campbell, D., and Cao, J. (2007) for estimating ordinary differential equation models with missing or complete observations. It combines smoothing method and profile estimation to estimate any non-linear dynamic system. The package also offers variance estimates for parameters of interest based on either bootstrap or Delta method.
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.

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.
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>.
This package provides methods to detect the differential composition abundances between conditions in singel-cell RNA-seq experiments, with or without replicates. It aims to correct bias introduced by missclaisification and enable controlling of confounding covariates. To avoid the influence of proportion change from big cell types, DCATS can use either total cell number or specific reference group as normalization term.
This package provides diagnostics for assessing genomic DNA contamination in RNA-seq data, as well as plots representing these diagnostics. Moreover, the package can be used to get an insight into the strand library protocol used and, in case of strand-specific libraries, the strandedness of the data. Furthermore, it provides functionality to filter out reads of potential gDNA origin.
This package provides methods to perform trajectory analysis based on a minimum spanning tree constructed from cluster centroids. Computes pseudotemporal cell orderings by mapping cells in each cluster (or new cells) to the closest edge in the tree. Uses linear modelling to identify differentially expressed genes along each path through the tree. Several plotting and interactive visualization functions are also implemented.
This package contains various tools for working with and evaluating cross-validated area under the ROC curve (AUC) estimators. The primary functions of the package are ci.cvAUC and ci.pooled.cvAUC, which report cross-validated AUC and compute confidence intervals for cross-validated AUC estimates based on influence curves for i.i.d. and pooled repeated measures data, respectively.
This package provides colour choice in information visualisation. It important in order to avoid being mislead by inherent bias in the used colour palette. This package provides access to the perceptually uniform and colour-blindness friendly palettes developed by Fabio Crameri and released under the "Scientific Colour-Maps" moniker. The package contains 24 different palettes and includes both diverging and sequential types.
This package provides resampling procedures to assess the stability of selected variables with additional finite sample error control for high-dimensional variable selection procedures such as Lasso or boosting. Both, standard stability selection (Meinshausen & Buhlmann, 2010) and complementary pairs stability selection with improved error bounds (Shah & Samworth, 2013) are implemented. The package can be combined with arbitrary user specified variable selection approaches.
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.
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.
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.
