In mathematics, rejection sampling is a basic technique used to generate observations from a distribution. It is also commonly called the Acceptance-Rejection method or Accept-Reject algorithm and is a type of Monte Carlo method. Acceptance-Rejection method is based on the observation that to sample a random variable one can perform a uniformly random sampling of the 2D cartesian graph, and keep the samples in the region under the graph of its density function. Package AR is able to generate/simulate random data from a probability density function by Acceptance-Rejection method. Moreover, this package is a useful teaching resource for graphical presentation of Acceptance-Rejection method. From the practical point of view, the user needs to calculate a constant in Acceptance-Rejection method, which package AR is able to compute this constant by optimization tools. Several numerical examples are provided to illustrate the graphical presentation for the Acceptance-Rejection Method.

Considering an (n x m) data matrix X, this package is based on the method proposed by Gower, Groener, and Velden (2010) <doi:10.1198/jcgs.2010.07134>, and utilize the resulting matrices from the extended version of the NIPALS decomposition to determine n triangles whose areas are used to visually estimate the elements of a specific column of X. After a 90-degree rotation of the sample points, the triangles are drawn regarding the following points: 1.the origin of the axes; 2.the sample points; 3. the vector endpoint representing some variable.

This package provides a framework for automated machine learning. Concretely, the focus is on the optimisation of bagging workflows. A bagging workflows is composed by three phases: (i) generation: which and how many predictive models to learn; (ii) pruning: after learning a set of models, the worst ones are cut off from the ensemble; and (iii) integration: how the models are combined for predicting a new observation. autoBagging optimises these processes by combining metalearning and a learning to rank approach to learn from metadata. It automatically ranks 63 bagging workflows by exploiting past performance and dataset characterization. A complete description of the method can be found in: Pinto, F., Cerqueira, V., Soares, C., Mendes-Moreira, J. (2017): "autoBagging: Learning to Rank Bagging Workflows with Metalearning" arXiv preprint arXiv:1706.09367.

The main application concerns to a new robust optimization package with two major contributions. The first contribution refers to the assessment of the adequacy of probabilistic models through a combination of several statistics, which measure the relative quality of statistical models for a given data set. The second one provides a general purpose optimization method based on meta-heuristics functions for maximizing or minimizing an arbitrary objective function.

Implementation of a hybrid MCDM method build from the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and TOPSIS-2N (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution - with two normalizations). This method is described in Souza et al. (2018) <doi: 10.1142/S0219622018500207>.

Airport problems, introduced by Littlechild and Owen (1973) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/2629727>, are cost allocation problems where agents share the cost of a facility (or service) based on their ordered needs. Valid allocations must satisfy no-subsidy constraints, meaning that no group of agents contributes more than the highest cost of its members (i.e., no agent is allowed to subsidize another). A rule is a mechanism that selects an allocation vector for a given problem. This package computes several rules proposed in the literature, including both standard rules and their variants, such as weighted versions, rules for clones, and rules based on the agentsâ hierarchy order. These rules can be applied to various problems of interest, including the allocation of liabilities and the maintenance of irrigation systems, among others. Moreover, the package provides functions for graphical representation, enabling users to visually compare the outcomes produced by each rule, or to display the no-subsidy set. In addition, it includes four datasets illustrating different applications and examples of airport problems. For a more detailed explanation of all concepts, see Thomson (2024) <doi:10.1016/j.mathsocsci.2024.03.007>.

For emulating multifidelity computer models. The major methods include univariate autoregressive cokriging and multivariate autoregressive cokriging. The autoregressive cokriging methods are implemented for both hierarchically nested design and non-nested design. For hierarchically nested design, the model parameters are estimated via standard optimization algorithms; For non-nested design, the model parameters are estimated via Monte Carlo expectation-maximization (MCEM) algorithms. In both cases, the priors are chosen such that the posterior distributions are proper. Notice that the uniform priors on range parameters in the correlation function lead to improper posteriors. This should be avoided when Bayesian analysis is adopted. The development of objective priors for autoregressive cokriging models can be found in Pulong Ma (2020) <DOI:10.1137/19M1289893>. The development of the multivariate autoregressive cokriging models with possibly non-nested design can be found in Pulong Ma, Georgios Karagiannis, Bledar A Konomi, Taylor G Asher, Gabriel R Toro, and Andrew T Cox (2019) <arXiv:1909.01836>.

Assess whether and how a specific continuous or categorical exposure affects the outcome of interest through one- or multi-dimensional mediators using an adaptive bootstrap (AB) approach. The AB method allows to make inference for composite null hypotheses of no mediation effect, providing valid type I error control and thus optimizes statistical power.

This package implements wavelet-based approaches for describing population admixture. Principal Components Analysis (PCA) is used to define the population structure and produce a localized admixture signal for each individual. Wavelet summaries of the PCA output describe variation present in the data and can be related to population-level demographic processes.
