There is an increasing interest in investigating how the compositions of microbial communities are associated with human health and disease. In this package, we present a novel global testing method called aMiSPU, that is highly adaptive and thus high powered across various scenarios, alleviating the issue with the choice of a phylogenetic distance. Our simulations and real data analysis demonstrated that aMiSPU test was often more powerful than several competing methods while correctly controlling type I error rates.

Designed for simplicity, a mirai evaluates an R expression asynchronously in a parallel process, locally or distributed over the network. The result is automatically available upon completion. Modern networking and concurrency, built on nanonext and NNG (Nanomsg Next Gen), ensures reliable and efficient scheduling over fast inter-process communications or TCP/IP secured by TLS. Distributed computing can launch remote resources via SSH or cluster managers. An inherently queued architecture handles many more tasks than available processes, and requires no storage on the file system. Innovative features include support for otherwise non-exportable reference objects, event-driven promises, and asynchronous parallel map.
Estimates random effect latent measurement models, wherein the loadings, residual variances, intercepts, latent means, and latent variances all vary across groups. The random effect variances of the measurement parameters are then modeled using a hierarchical inclusion model, wherein the inclusion of the variances (i.e., whether it is effectively zero or non-zero) is informed by similar parameters (of the same type, or of the same item). This additional hierarchical structure allows the evidence in favor of partial invariance to accumulate more quickly, and yields more certain decisions about measurement invariance.

Microbial growth is often measured by growth curves i.e. a table of population sizes and times of measurements. This package allows to use such growth curve data to determine the duration of "microbial lag phase" i.e. the time needed for microbes to restart divisions. It implements the most commonly used methods to calculate the lag duration, these methods are discussed and described in Opalek et.al. 2022. Citation: Smug, B. J., Opalek, M., Necki, M., & Wloch-Salamon, D. (2024). Microbial lag calculator: A shiny-based application and an R package for calculating the duration of microbial lag phase.

This package provides a tool for computing probabilities and other quantities that are relevant in selecting performance criteria for discrete trial training. The main function, miebl(), computes Bayesian and frequentist probabilities and bounds for each of n possible performance criterion choices when attempting to determine a student's true mastery level by counting their number of successful attempts at displaying learning among n trials. The reporting function miebl_re() takes output from miebl() and prepares it into a brief report for a specific criterion. miebl_cp() combines 2 to 5 distributions of true mastery level given performance criterion in one plot for comparison.

Map image classification efficacy (MICE) adjusts the accuracy rate relative to a random classification baseline (Shao et al. (2021)<doi:10.1109/ACCESS.2021.3116526> and Tang et al. (2024)<doi:10.1109/TGRS.2024.3446950>). Only the proportions from the reference labels are considered, as opposed to the proportions from the reference and predictions, as is the case for the Kappa statistic. This package offers means to calculate MICE and adjusted versions of class-level user's accuracy (i.e., precision) and producer's accuracy (i.e., recall) and F1-scores. Class-level metrics are aggregated using macro-averaging. Functions are also made available to estimate confidence intervals using bootstrapping and statistically compare two classification results.
This is a method (MinED) for mining probability distributions using deterministic sampling which is proposed by Joseph, Wang, Gu, Lv, and Tuo (2019) <DOI:10.1080/00401706.2018.1552203>. The MinED samples can be used for approximating the target distribution. They can be generated from a density function that is known only up to a proportionality constant and thus, it might find applications in Bayesian computation. Moreover, the MinED samples are generated with much fewer evaluations of the density function compared to random sampling-based methods such as MCMC and therefore, this method will be especially useful when the unnormalized posterior is expensive or time consuming to evaluate. This research is supported by a U.S. National Science Foundation grant DMS-1712642.
This package provides methods to estimate serial intervals and time-varying case reproduction numbers from infectious disease outbreak data. Serial intervals measure the time between symptom onset in linked transmission pairs, while case reproduction numbers quantify how many secondary cases each infected individual generates over time. These parameters are essential for understanding transmission dynamics, evaluating control measures, and informing public health responses. The package implements the maximum likelihood framework from Vink et al. (2014) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwu209> for serial interval estimation and the retrospective method from Wallinga & Lipsitch (2007) <doi:10.1098/rspb.2006.3754> for reproduction number estimation. Originally developed for scabies transmission analysis but applicable to other infectious diseases including influenza, COVID-19, and emerging pathogens. Designed for epidemiologists, public health researchers, and infectious disease modelers working with outbreak surveillance data.
mitch is an R package for multi-contrast enrichment analysis. At it’s heart, it uses a rank-MANOVA based statistical approach to detect sets of genes that exhibit enrichment in the multidimensional space as compared to the background. The rank-MANOVA concept dates to work by Cox and Mann (https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2105-13-S16-S12). mitch is useful for pathway analysis of profiling studies with one, two or more contrasts, or in studies with multiple omics profiling, for example proteomic, transcriptomic, epigenomic analysis of the same samples. mitch is perfectly suited for pathway level differential analysis of scRNA-seq data. We have an established routine for pathway enrichment of Infinium Methylation Array data (see vignette). The main strengths of mitch are that it can import datasets easily from many upstream tools and has advanced plotting features to visualise these enrichments.

Companion package of Carrion-i-Silvestre & Sansó (2023): "Generalized Extreme Value Approximation to the CUMSUMQ Test for Constant Unconditional Variance in Heavy-Tailed Time Series". It implements the Modified Iterative Cumulative Sum of Squares Algorithm, which is an extension of the Iterative Cumulative Sum of Squares (ICSS) Algorithm of Inclan and Tiao (1994), and it checks for changes in the unconditional variance of a time series controlling for the tail index of the underlying distribution. The fourth order moment is estimated non-parametrically to avoid the size problems when the innovations are non-Gaussian (see, Sansó et al., 2004). Critical values and p-values are generated using a Generalized Extreme Value distribution approach.
