Fast imputations under the object-oriented programming paradigm. Moreover there are offered a few functions built to work with popular R packages such as data.table or dplyr'. The biggest improvement in time performance can be achieved for a calculation where a grouping variable is used. A single evaluation of a quantitative model for the multiple imputations is another major enhancement. A new major improvement is one of the fastest predictive mean matching in the R world because of presorting and binary search.

It provides functions to compute the values of different modifications of the Rand and Wallace indices. The indices are used to measure the stability or similarity of two partitions obtained on two different sets of units with a non-empty intercept. Splitting and merging of clusters can (depends on the selected index) have a different effect on the value of the indices. The indices are proposed in Cugmas and Ferligoj (2018) <http://ibmi.mf.uni-lj.si/mz/2018/no-1/Cugmas2018.pdf>.

An efficient implementation of the MCPMod (Multiple Comparisons and Modeling) method to support a simulation-based design and analysis of dose-finding trials with normally distributed, binary and count endpoints (Bretz et al. (2005) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2005.00344.x>).

Offers a convenient pipeline to test and compare various missing data imputation algorithms on simulated and real data. These include simpler methods, such as mean and median imputation and random replacement, but also include more sophisticated algorithms already implemented in popular R packages, such as mi', described by Su et al. (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v045.i02>; mice', described by van Buuren and Groothuis-Oudshoorn (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v045.i03>; missForest', described by Stekhoven and Buhlmann (2012) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btr597>; missMDA', described by Josse and Husson (2016) <doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i01>; and pcaMethods', described by Stacklies et al. (2007) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btm069>. The central assumption behind missCompare is that structurally different datasets (e.g. larger datasets with a large number of correlated variables vs. smaller datasets with non correlated variables) will benefit differently from different missing data imputation algorithms. missCompare takes measurements of your dataset and sets up a sandbox to try a curated list of standard and sophisticated missing data imputation algorithms and compares them assuming custom missingness patterns. missCompare will also impute your real-life dataset for you after the selection of the best performing algorithm in the simulations. The package also provides various post-imputation diagnostics and visualizations to help you assess imputation performance.

N>=3 methods are used to measure each of n items. The data are used to estimate simultaneously systematic error (bias) and random error (imprecision). Observed measurements for each method or device are assumed to be linear functions of the unknown true values and the errors are assumed normally distributed. Pairwise calibration curves and plots can be easily generated. Unlike the ncb.od function, the omx function builds a one-factor measurement error model using OpenMx and allows missing values, uses full information maximum likelihood to estimate parameters, and provides both likelihood-based and bootstrapped confidence intervals for all parameters, in addition to Wald-type intervals.

To determine the number of quantitative assays needed for a sample of data using pooled testing methods, which include mini-pooling (MP), MP with algorithm (MPA), and marker-assisted MPA (mMPA). To estimate the number of assays needed, the package also provides a tool to conduct Monte Carlo (MC) to simulate different orders in which the sample would be collected to form pools. Using MC avoids the dependence of the estimated number of assays on any specific ordering of the samples to form pools.

Meta-analysis traditionally assigns more weight to studies with lower standard errors, assuming higher precision. However, in observational research, precision must be estimated and is vulnerable to manipulation, such as p-hacking, to achieve statistical significance. This can lead to spurious precision, invalidating inverse-variance weighting and bias-correction methods like funnel plots. Common methods for addressing publication bias, including selection models, often fail or exacerbate the problem. This package introduces an instrumental variable approach to limit bias caused by spurious precision in meta-analysis. Methods are described in Irsova et al. (2025) <doi:10.1038/s41467-025-63261-0>.
