Made to make your life simpler with packages, by installing and loading a list of packages, whether they are on CRAN, Bioconductor or github. For github, if you do not have the full path, with the maintainer name in it (e.g. "achateigner/topReviGO"), it will be able to load it but not to install it.

Estimates hidden Markov models from the family of Cholesky-decomposed Gaussian hidden Markov models (CDGHMM) under various missingness schemes. This family improves upon estimation of traditional Gaussian HMMs by introducing parsimony, as well as, controlling for dropped out observations and non-random missingness. See Neal, Sochaniwsky and McNicholas (2024) <DOI:10.1007/s11222-024-10462-0>.

Composite likelihood approach is implemented to estimating statistical models for spatial ordinal and proportional data based on Feng et al. (2014) <doi:10.1002/env.2306>. Parameter estimates are identified by maximizing composite log-likelihood functions using the limited memory BFGS optimization algorithm with bounding constraints, while standard errors are obtained by estimating the Godambe information matrix.

This package implements Firth's penalized maximum likelihood bias reduction method for Cox regression which has been shown to provide a solution in case of monotone likelihood (nonconvergence of likelihood function), see Heinze and Schemper (2001) and Heinze and Dunkler (2008). The program fits profile penalized likelihood confidence intervals which were proved to outperform Wald confidence intervals.

Uses coordinate descent and local search algorithms to rapidly deliver near optimal estimates. The group subset penalty can be combined with a group lasso or ridge penalty for added shrinkage. Linear and logistic regression are supported, as are overlapping groups.

This package implements the Hierarchical Incremental GRAdient Descent (HiGrad) algorithm, a first-order algorithm for finding the minimizer of a function in online learning just like stochastic gradient descent (SGD). In addition, this method attaches a confidence interval to assess the uncertainty of its predictions. See Su and Zhu (2018) <arXiv:1802.04876> for details.

Estimating the mean and variance of a covariate for the complier, never-taker and always-taker subpopulation in the context of instrumental variable estimation. This package implements the method described in Marbach and Hangartner (2020) <doi:10.1017/pan.2019.48> and Hangartner, Marbach, Henckel, Maathuis, Kelz and Keele (2021) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2103.06328>.

The "Manual on Low-flow Estimation and Prediction" (Gustard & Demuth (2009, ISBN:978-92-63-11029-9)), published by the World Meteorological Organisation, gives a comprehensive summary on how to analyse stream flow data focusing on low-flows. This packages provides functions to compute the described statistics and produces plots similar to the ones in the manual.

This package implements order selection for Vector Autoregressive (VAR) models using the Mean Square Information Criterion (MIC). Unlike standard methods such as AIC and BIC, MIC is likelihood-free.
