Different tools for managing databases of airborne particles, elaborating the main calculations and visualization of results. In a first step, data are checked using tools for quality control and all missing gaps are completed. Then, the main parameters of the pollen season are calculated and represented graphically. Multiple graphical tools are available: pollen calendars, phenological plots, time series, tendencies, interactive plots, abundance plots...

This package provides methods to construct frequentist confidence sets with valid marginal coverage for identifying the population-level argmin or argmax based on IID data. For instance, given an n by p loss matrixâ where n is the sample size and p is the number of modelsâ the CS.argmin() method produces a discrete confidence set that contains the model with the minimal (best) expected risk with desired probability. The argmin.HT() method helps check if a specific model should be included in such a confidence set. The main implemented method is proposed by Tianyu Zhang, Hao Lee and Jing Lei (2024) "Winners with confidence: Discrete argmin inference with an application to model selection".

Raw and processed versions of the data from De Cock (2011) <http://ww2.amstat.org/publications/jse> are included in the package.

Assists the evaluation of whether and where to focus code optimization, using Amdahl's law and visual aids based on line profiling. Amdahl's profiler organizes profiling output files (including memory profiling) in a visually appealing way. It is meant to help to balance development vs. execution time by helping to identify the most promising sections of code to optimize and projecting potential gains. The package is an addition to R's standard profiling tools and is not a wrapper for them.

It performs Canonical Correlation Analysis and provides inferential guaranties on the correlation components. The p-values are computed following the resampling method developed in Winkler, A. M., Renaud, O., Smith, S. M., & Nichols, T. E. (2020). Permutation inference for canonical correlation analysis. NeuroImage, <doi:10.1016/j.neuroimage.2020.117065>. Furthermore, it provides plotting tools to visualize the results.

Self-organizing maps (also known as SOM, see Kohonen (2001) <doi:10.1007/978-3-642-56927-2>) are a method for dimensionality reduction and clustering of continuous data. This package introduces interactive (html) graphics for easier analysis of SOM results.

This package provides an R interface for the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) API (see <http://www.bea.gov/API/bea_web_service_api_user_guide.htm> for more information) that serves two core purposes - 1. To Extract/Transform/Load data [beaGet()] from the BEA API as R-friendly formats in the user's work space [transformation done by default in beaGet() can be modified using optional parameters; see, too, bea2List(), bea2Tab()]. 2. To enable the search of descriptive meta data [beaSearch()]. Other features of the library exist mainly as intermediate methods or are in early stages of development. Important Note - You must have an API key to use this library. Register for a key at <http://www.bea.gov/API/signup/index.cfm> .

Bayesian synthetic likelihood (BSL, Price et al. (2018) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2017.1302882>) is an alternative to standard, non-parametric approximate Bayesian computation (ABC). BSL assumes a multivariate normal distribution for the summary statistic likelihood and it is suitable when the distribution of the model summary statistics is sufficiently regular. This package provides a Metropolis Hastings Markov chain Monte Carlo implementation of four methods (BSL, uBSL, semiBSL and BSLmisspec) and two shrinkage estimators (graphical lasso and Warton's estimator). uBSL (Price et al. (2018) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2017.1302882>) uses an unbiased estimator to the normal density. A semi-parametric version of BSL (semiBSL, An et al. (2018) <arXiv:1809.05800>) is more robust to non-normal summary statistics. BSLmisspec (Frazier et al. 2019 <arXiv:1904.04551>) estimates the Gaussian synthetic likelihood whilst acknowledging that there may be incompatibility between the model and the observed summary statistic. Shrinkage estimation can help to decrease the number of model simulations when the dimension of the summary statistic is high (e.g., BSLasso, An et al. (2019) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2018.1537928>). Extensions to this package are planned. For a journal article describing how to use this package, see An et al. (2022) <doi:10.18637/jss.v101.i11>.

This package provides a unified framework for identification and ecological interpretation of core microbiomes across time and space, enhancing robustness and reproducibility in microbiome data analysis. BRCore implements the workflow proposed by Shade and Stopnisek (2019) and incorporates additional rarefaction steps. The proposed workflow aims to identify persistent microbiomes using abundance-occupancy distributions and neutral community model fitting. For more details on abundance-occupancy distributions see Shade A, Stopnisek N (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.mib.2019.09.008>, for neutral models, see Sloan et al. (2006) <doi:10.1111/j.1462-2920.2005.00956.x> and Burns et al. (2015) <doi:10.1038/ismej.2015.142>.

Bayesian Additive Regression Kernels (BARK) provides an implementation for non-parametric function estimation using Levy Random Field priors for functions that may be represented as a sum of additive multivariate kernels. Kernels are located at every data point as in Support Vector Machines, however, coefficients may be heavily shrunk to zero under the Cauchy process prior, or even, set to zero. The number of active features is controlled by priors on precision parameters within the kernels, permitting feature selection. For more details see Ouyang, Z (2008) "Bayesian Additive Regression Kernels", Duke University. PhD dissertation, Chapter 3 and Wolpert, R. L, Clyde, M.A, and Tu, C. (2011) "Stochastic Expansions with Continuous Dictionaries Levy Adaptive Regression Kernels, Annals of Statistics Vol (39) pages 1916-1962 <doi:10.1214/11-AOS889>.

Data sets for book "Basic Statistics and Data Analysis" by Larry J. Kitchens.

This package performs unadjusted Bayesian survival analysis for right censored time-to-event data. The main function, BayesSurv(), computes the posterior mean and a credible band for the survival function and for the cumulative hazard, as well as the posterior mean for the hazard, starting from a piecewise exponential (histogram) prior with Gamma distributed heights that are either independent, or have a Markovian dependence structure. A function, PlotBayesSurv(), is provided to easily create plots of the posterior means of the hazard, cumulative hazard and survival function, with a credible band accompanying the latter two. The priors and samplers are described in more detail in Castillo and Van der Pas (2020) "Multiscale Bayesian survival analysis" <arXiv:2005.02889>. In that paper it is also shown that the credible bands for the survival function and the cumulative hazard can be considered confidence bands (under mild conditions) and thus offer reliable uncertainty quantification.

This package implements a bootstrap aggregated (bagged) version of the k-nearest neighbors survival probability prediction method (Lowsky et al. 2013). In addition to the bootstrapping of training samples, the features can be subsampled in each baselearner to break the correlation between them. The Rcpp package is used to speed up the computation.
