OCTAD provides a platform for virtually screening compounds targeting precise cancer patient groups. The essential idea is to identify drugs that reverse the gene expression signature of disease by tamping down over-expressed genes and stimulating weakly expressed ones. The package offers deep-learning based reference tissue selection, disease gene expression signature creation, pathway enrichment analysis, drug reversal potency scoring, cancer cell line selection, drug enrichment analysis and in silico hit validation. It currently covers ~20,000 patient tissue samples covering 50 cancer types, and expression profiles for ~12,000 distinct compounds.

The Iterative Proportional Fitting (IPF) algorithm operates on count data. This package offers implementations for several algorithms that extend this to nested structures: parent and child items for both of which constraints can be provided. The fitting algorithms include Iterative Proportional Updating <https://trid.trb.org/view/881554>, Hierarchical IPF <doi:10.3929/ethz-a-006620748>, Entropy Optimization <https://trid.trb.org/view/881144>, and Generalized Raking <doi:10.2307/2290793>. Additionally, a number of replication methods is also provided such as Truncate, replicate, sample <doi:10.1016/j.compenvurbsys.2013.03.004>.

This package provides an intuitive framework for ad-hoc statistical analysis of 1H-NMR metabolomics by Nightingale Health. It allows to easily explore new metabolomics measurements assayed by Nightingale Health, comparing the distributions with a large Consortium (BBMRI-nl); project previously published metabolic scores [<doi:10.1016/j.ebiom.2021.103764>, <doi:10.1161/CIRCGEN.119.002610>, <doi:10.1038/s41467-019-11311-9>, <doi:10.7554/eLife.63033>, <doi:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.114.013116>, <doi:10.1007/s00125-019-05001-w>]; and calibrate the metabolic surrogate values to a desired dataset.

This is a implementation of design methods for multi-state reliability demonstration tests (MSRDT) with failure count data, which is associated with the work from the published paper "Multi-state Reliability Demonstration Tests" by Suiyao Chen et al. (2017) <doi:10.1080/08982112.2017.1314493>. It implements two types of MSRDT, multiple periods (MP) and multiple failure modes (MFM). For MP, two different scenarios with criteria on cumulative periods (Cum) or separate periods (Sep) are implemented respectively. It also provides the implementation of conventional design method, namely binomial tests for failure count data.

The aim of nosoi (pronounced no.si) is to provide a flexible agent-based stochastic transmission chain/epidemic simulator (Lequime et al. Methods in Ecology and Evolution 11:1002-1007). It is named after the daimones of plague, sickness and disease that escaped Pandora's jar in the Greek mythology. nosoi is able to take into account the influence of multiple variable on the transmission process (e.g. dual-host systems (such as arboviruses), within-host viral dynamics, transportation, population structure), alone or taken together, to create complex but relatively intuitive epidemiological simulations.

The current version of this package estimates spatial autoregressive models for binary dependent variables using GMM estimators <doi:10.18637/jss.v107.i08>. It supports one-step (Pinkse and Slade, 1998) <doi:10.1016/S0304-4076(97)00097-3> and two-step GMM estimator along with the linearized GMM estimator proposed by Klier and McMillen (2008) <doi:10.1198/073500107000000188>. It also allows for either Probit or Logit model and compute the average marginal effects. All these models are presented in Sarrias and Piras (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.jocm.2023.100432>.

This package provides methods for fitting bivariate lines in allometry using the major axis (MA) or standardised major axis (SMA), and for making inferences about such lines. The available methods of inference include confidence intervals and one-sample tests for slope and elevation, testing for a common slope or elevation amongst several allometric lines, constructing a confidence interval for a common slope or elevation, and testing for no shift along a common axis, amongst several samples. See Warton et al. 2012 <doi:10.1111/j.2041-210X.2011.00153.x> for methods description.

Models categorical time series through a Markov Chain when a) covariates are predictors for transitioning into the next state/symbol and b) when the dependence in the past states has variable length. The probability of transitioning to the next state in the Markov Chain is defined by a multinomial regression whose parameters depend on the past states of the chain and, moreover, the number of states in the past needed to predict the next state also depends on the observed states themselves. See Zambom, Kim, and Garcia (2022) <doi:10.1111/jtsa.12615>.

This package provides a highly scientific and utterly addictive bird point count simulator to test statistical assumptions, aid survey design, and have fun while doing it (Solymos 2024 <doi:10.1007/s42977-023-00183-2>). The simulations follow time-removal and distance sampling models based on Matsuoka et al. (2012) <doi:10.1525/auk.2012.11190>, Solymos et al. (2013) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12106>, and Solymos et al. (2018) <doi:10.1650/CONDOR-18-32.1>, and sound attenuation experiments by Yip et al. (2017) <doi:10.1650/CONDOR-16-93.1>.

This package provides a small set of functions for managing R environments, with defaults designed to encourage usage patterns that scale well to larger code bases. It provides: import_from(), a flexible way to assign bindings that defaults to the current environment; include(), a vectorized alternative to base::source() that also default to the current environment; and attach_eval() and attach_source(), a way to evaluate expressions in attached environments. Together, these (and other) functions pair to provide a robust alternative to base::library() and base::source().

Tree height is an important dendrometric variable and forms the basis of vertical structure of a forest stand. This package will help to fit and validate various non-linear height diameter models for assessing the underlying relationship that exists between tree height and diameter at breast height in case of conifer trees. This package has been implemented on Naslund, Curtis, Michailoff, Meyer, Power, Michaelis-Menten and Wykoff non linear models using algorithm of Huang et al. (1992) <doi:10.1139/x92-172> and Zeide et al. (1993) <doi:10.1093/forestscience/39.3.594>.

All the data and functions used to produce the book. We do not expect most people to use the package for any other reason than to get simple access to the JAGS model files, the data, and perhaps run some of the simple examples. The authors of the book are David Lucy (now sadly deceased) and James Curran. It is anticipated that a manuscript will be provided to Taylor and Francis around February 2020, with bibliographic details to follow at that point. Until such time, further information can be obtained by emailing James Curran.

This is the R implementation of Karel the robot, a programming language created by Dr. R. E. Pattis at Stanford University in 1981. Karel is an useful tool to teach introductory concepts about general programming, such as algorithmic decomposition, conditional statements, loops, etc., in an interactive and fun way, by writing programs to make Karel the robot achieve certain tasks in the world she lives in. Originally based on Pascal, Karel was implemented in many languages through these decades, including Java', C++', Ruby and Python'. This is the first package implementing Karel in R.

Allows the simultaneous analysis of responses and response times in an Item Response Theory (IRT) modelling framework. Supports variable person speed functions (intercept, trend, quadratic), and covariates for item and person (random) parameters. Data missing-by-design can be specified. Parameter estimation is done with a MCMC algorithm. LNIRT replaces the package CIRT, which was written by Rinke Klein Entink. For reference, see the paper by Fox, Klein Entink and Van der Linden (2007), "Modeling of Responses and Response Times with the Package cirt", Journal of Statistical Software, <doi:10.18637/jss.v020.i07>.

Sentiment analysis is a popular technique in text mining that attempts to determine the emotional state of some text. We provide a new implementation of a common method for computing sentiment, whereby words are scored as positive or negative according to a dictionary lookup. Then the sum of those scores is returned for the document. We use the Hu and Liu sentiment dictionary ('Hu and Liu', 2004) <doi:10.1145/1014052.1014073> for determining sentiment. The scoring function is vectorized by document, and scores for multiple documents are computed in parallel via OpenMP'.

This package provides functions for causal structure learning and causal inference using graphical models. The main algorithms for causal structure learning are PC (for observational data without hidden variables), FCI and RFCI (for observational data with hidden variables), and GIES (for a mix of data from observational studies (i.e. observational data) and data from experiments involving interventions (i.e. interventional data) without hidden variables). For causal inference the IDA algorithm, the Generalized Backdoor Criterion (GBC), the Generalized Adjustment Criterion (GAC) and some related functions are implemented. Functions for incorporating background knowledge are provided.

Fits penalized linear mixed models that correct for unobserved confounding factors. plmmr infers and corrects for the presence of unobserved confounding effects such as population stratification and environmental heterogeneity. It then fits a linear model via penalized maximum likelihood. Originally designed for the multivariate analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) measured in a genome-wide association study (GWAS), plmmr eliminates the need for subpopulation-specific analyses and post-analysis p-value adjustments. Functions for the appropriate processing of PLINK files are also supplied. For examples, see the package homepage. <https://pbreheny.github.io/plmmr/>.

This R package provides power calculations via internal simulation methods. The package also provides a frontend to the now abandoned PBAT program (developed by Christoph Lange), and reads in the corresponding output and displays results and figures when appropriate. The license of this R package itself is GPL. However, to have the program interact with the PBAT program for some functionality of the R package, users must additionally obtain the PBAT program from Christoph Lange, and accept his license. Both the data analysis and power calculations have command line and graphical interfaces using tcltk.

The SALSO algorithm is an efficient randomized greedy search method to find a point estimate for a random partition based on a loss function and posterior Monte Carlo samples. The algorithm is implemented for many loss functions, including the Binder loss and a generalization of the variation of information loss, both of which allow for unequal weights on the two types of clustering mistakes. Efficient implementations are also provided for Monte Carlo estimation of the posterior expected loss of a given clustering estimate. See Dahl, Johnson, Müller (2022) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2022.2069779>.

Algorithms to calculate the hidden inputs of systems of differential equations. These hidden inputs can be interpreted as a control that tries to minimize the discrepancies between a given model and taken measurements. The idea is also called the Dynamic Elastic Net, as proposed in the paper "Learning (from) the errors of a systems biology model" (Engelhardt, Froelich, Kschischo 2016) <doi:10.1038/srep20772>. To use the experimental SBML import function, the rsbml package is required. For installation I refer to the official rsbml page: <https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/rsbml.html>.

This package provides a collection of functions for Kronecker structured covariance estimation and testing under the array normal model. For estimation, maximum likelihood and Bayesian equivariant estimation procedures are implemented. For testing, a likelihood ratio testing procedure is available. This package also contains additional functions for manipulating and decomposing tensor data sets. This work was partially supported by NSF grant DMS-1505136. Details of the methods are described in Gerard and Hoff (2015) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2015.01.020> and Gerard and Hoff (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.laa.2016.04.033>.

This package provides a tool that allows users to estimate tree height in the long-term forest experiments in Sweden. It utilizes the multilevel nonlinear mixed-effect height models developed for the forest experiments and consists of four functions for the main species, other conifer species, and other broadleaves. Each function within the system returns a data frame that includes the input data and the estimated heights for any missing values. Ogana et al.
