Fast and efficient sampling from general univariate probability density functions. Implements a rejection sampling approach designed to take advantage of modern CPU caches and minimise evaluation of the target density for most samples. Many standard densities are internally implemented in C for high performance, with general user defined densities also supported. A paper describing the methodology will be released soon.

Estimating the Shapley values using the algorithm in the paper Liuqing Yang, Yongdao Zhou, Haoda Fu, Min-Qian Liu and Wei Zheng (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2023.2257364> "Fast Approximation of the Shapley Values Based on Order-of-Addition Experimental Designs". You provide the data and define the value function, it retures the estimated Shapley values based on sampling methods or experimental designs.

Latent repeated measures ANOVA (L-RM-ANOVA) is a structural equation modeling based alternative to traditional repeated measures ANOVA. L-RM-ANOVA extends the latent growth components approach by Mayer et al. (2012) <doi:10.1080/10705511.2012.713242> and introduces latent variables to repeated measures analysis.

This package provides functionality to generate, (interactively) modify (by adding, removing and renaming nodes) and convert nested hierarchies between different formats. These tree like structures can be used to define for example complex hierarchical tables used for statistical disclosure control.

Implementation of methodology designed to perform: (i) variable selection, (ii) effect estimation, and (iii) uncertainty quantification, for high-dimensional survival data. Our method uses a spike-and-slab prior with Laplace slab and Dirac spike and approximates the corresponding posterior using variational inference, a popular method in machine learning for scalable conditional inference. Although approximate, the variational posterior provides excellent point estimates and good control of the false discovery rate. For more information see Komodromos et al. (2021) <arXiv:2112.10270>.

This is a collection of various kinds of data with broad uses for teaching. My students, and academics like me who teach the same topics I teach, should find this useful if their teaching workflow is also built around the R programming language. The applications are multiple but mostly cluster on topics of statistical methodology, international relations, and political economy.

Track and record the use of applications and the user's interactions with Shiny inputs. Allows to trace the inputs with which the user interacts, the outputs generated, as well as the errors displayed in the interface.

This package provides statistical procedures for linear regression in the general context where the errors are assumed to be correlated. Different ways to estimate the asymptotic covariance matrix of the least squares estimators are available. Starting from this estimation of the covariance matrix, the confidence intervals and the usual tests on the parameters are modified. The functions of this package are very similar to those of lm': it contains methods such as summary(), plot(), confint() and predict(). The slm package is described in the paper by E. Caron, J. Dedecker and B. Michel (2019), "Linear regression with stationary errors: the R package slm", arXiv preprint <arXiv:1906.06583>.

Collision Risk Models for avian fauna (seabird and migratory birds) at offshore wind farms. The base deterministic model is derived from Band (2012) <https://tethys.pnnl.gov/publications/using-collision-risk-model-assess-bird-collision-risks-offshore-wind-farms>. This was further expanded on by Masden (2015) <doi:10.7489/1659-1> and code used here is heavily derived from this work with input from Dr A. Cook at the British Trust for Ornithology. These collision risk models are useful for marine ornithologists who are working in the offshore wind industry, particularly in UK waters. However, many of the species included in the stochastic collision risk models can also be found in the North Atlantic in the United States and Canada, and could be applied there.

This package provides a sparse covariance estimator based on different thresholding operators.

The goal of SIHR is to provide inference procedures in the high-dimensional generalized linear regression setting for: (1) linear functionals <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1904.12891> <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2012.07133>, (2) conditional average treatment effects, (3) quadratic functionals <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1909.01503>, (4) inner product, (5) distance.

This package provides functions that compute the spatial covariance matrix for the matern and power classes of spatial models, for data that arise on rectangular units. This code can also be used for the change of support problem and for spatial data that arise on irregularly shaped regions like counties or zipcodes by laying a fine grid of rectangles and aggregating the integrals in a form of Riemann integration.

This package implements a spatially varying change point model with unique intercepts, slopes, variance intercepts and slopes, and change points at each location. Inference is within the Bayesian setting using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The response variable can be modeled as Gaussian (no nugget), probit or Tobit link and the five spatially varying parameter are modeled jointly using a multivariate conditional autoregressive (MCAR) prior. The MCAR is a unique process that allows for a dissimilarity metric to dictate the local spatial dependencies. Full details of the package can be found in the accompanying vignette. Furthermore, the details of the package can be found in the corresponding paper published in Spatial Statistics by Berchuck et al (2019): "A spatially varying change points model for monitoring glaucoma progression using visual field data", <doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2019.02.001>.

Perform biomarker evaluation and comparison in terms of specificity at a controlled sensitivity level, or sensitivity at a controlled specificity level. Point estimation and exact bootstrap of Huang, Parakati, Patil, and Sanda (2023) <doi:10.5705/ss.202021.0020> for the one- and two-biomarker problems are implemented.

The number of studies involving correlated traits and the availability of tools to handle this type of data has increased considerably in the last decade. With such a demand, we need tools for testing hypotheses related to single and multi-trait (correlated) phenotypes based on many genetic settings. Thus, we implemented various options for simulation of pleiotropy and Linkage Disequilibrium under additive, dominance and epistatic models. The simulation currently takes a marker data set as an input and then uses it for simulating multiple traits as described in Fernandes and Lipka (2020) <doi:10.1186/s12859-020-03804-y>.

You can use the functions provided by the package to make various statistical tables, such as baseline data tables.

Variable selection techniques are essential tools for model selection and estimation in high-dimensional statistical models. Through this publicly available package, we provide a unified environment to carry out variable selection using iterative sure independence screening (SIS) (Fan and Lv (2008)<doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2008.00674.x>) and all of its variants in generalized linear models (Fan and Song (2009)<doi:10.1214/10-AOS798>) and the Cox proportional hazards model (Fan, Feng and Wu (2010)<doi:10.1214/10-IMSCOLL606>).
