Estimate genetic linkage maps for markers on a single chromosome (or in a single linkage group) from pairwise recombination fractions or intermarker distances using weighted metric multidimensional scaling. The methods are suitable for autotetraploid as well as diploid populations. Options for assessing the fit to a known map are also provided. Methods are discussed in detail in Preedy and Hackett (2016) <doi:10.1007/s00122-016-2761-8>.

Estimate Multidimensional Poverty Indices disaggregated by population subgroups based on the Alkire and Foster method (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.jpubeco.2010.11.006>. This includes the calculation of standard errors and confidence intervals. Other partial indices such as incidence, intensity and indicator-specific measures as well as intertemporal changes analysis can also be estimated. The standard errors and confidence intervals are calculated considering the complex survey design.

Basic functions to fit and predict periodic autoregressive time series models. These models are discussed in the book P.H. Franses (1996) "Periodicity and Stochastic Trends in Economic Time Series", Oxford University Press. Data set analyzed in that book is also provided. NOTE: the package was orphaned during several years. It is now only maintained, but no major enhancements are expected, and the maintainer cannot provide any support.

The base R data.frame, like any vector, is copied upon modification. This behavior is at odds with that of GUIs and interactive graphics. To rectify this, plumbr provides a mutable, dynamic tabular data model. Models may be chained together to form the complex plumbing necessary for sophisticated graphical interfaces. Also included is a general framework for linking datasets; an typical use case would be a linked brush.

This package provides a collection of functions for modelling mutations in pedigrees with marker data, as used e.g. in likelihood computations with microsatellite data. Implemented models include equal, proportional and stepwise models, as well as random models for experimental work, and custom models allowing the user to apply any valid mutation matrix. Allele lumping is done following the lumpability criteria of Kemeny and Snell (1976), ISBN:0387901922.

Implements the Laplace mechanism (Dwork et al. 2006 <doi:10.1007/11681878_14>) and the Gaussian mechanism for achieving differential privacy as described in Dwork and Roth (2014) <doi:10.1561/0400000042>.

This package creates square pie charts also known as waffle charts. These can be used to communicate parts of a whole for categorical quantities. To emulate the percentage view of a pie chart, a 10x10 grid should be used. In this way each square is representing 1% of the total. Waffle provides tools to create charts as well as stitch them together. Isotype pictograms can be made by using glyphs.

The R package dmGsea provides efficient gene set enrichment analysis specifically for DNA methylation data. It addresses key biases, including probe dependency and varying probe numbers per gene. The package supports Illumina 450K, EPIC, and mouse methylation arrays. Users can also apply it to other omics data by supplying custom probe-to-gene mapping annotations. dmGsea is flexible, fast, and well-suited for large-scale epigenomic studies.

This package provides a quasi-simulation based approach to performing power analysis for EWAS (Epigenome-wide association studies) with continuous or binary outcomes. EpipwR relies on empirical EWAS datasets to determine power at specific sample sizes while keeping computational cost low. EpipwR can be run with a variety of standard statistical tests, controlling for either a false discovery rate or a family-wise type I error rate.

Bayesian inference using the no-U-turn (NUTS) algorithm by Hoffman and Gelman (2014) <https://www.jmlr.org/papers/v15/hoffman14a.html>. Designed for AD Model Builder ('ADMB') models, or when R functions for log-density and log-density gradient are available, such as Template Model Builder models and other special cases. Functionality is similar to Stan', and the rstan and shinystan packages are used for diagnostics and inference.

Offers a set of functions to easily make predictions for univariate time series. autoTS is a wrapper of existing functions of the forecast and prophet packages, harmonising their outputs in tidy dataframes and using default values for each. The core function getBestModel() allows the user to effortlessly benchmark seven algorithms along with a bagged estimator to identify which one performs the best for a given time series.

Fits a Causal Effect Random Forest of Interaction Tress (CERFIT) which is a modification of the Random Forest algorithm where each split is chosen to maximize subgroup treatment heterogeneity. Doing this allows it to estimate the individualized treatment effect for each observation in either randomized controlled trial (RCT) or observational data. For more information see L. Li, R. A. Levine, and J. Fan (2022) <doi:10.1002/sta4.457>.

This package provides models to fit the dynamics of a regulated system experiencing exogenous inputs. The underlying models use differential equations and linear mixed-effects regressions to estimate the coefficients of the equation. With them, the functions can provide an estimated signal. The package provides simulation and analysis functions and also print, summary, plot and predict methods, adapted to the function outputs, for easy implementation and presentation of results.

This package provides a computationally efficient and statistically rigorous fast Kernel Machine method for multi-kernel analysis. The approach is based on a low-rank approximation to the nuisance effect kernel matrices. The algorithm is applicable to continuous, binary, and survival traits and is implemented using the existing single-kernel analysis software SKAT and coxKM'. coxKM can be obtained from <https://github.com/lin-lab/coxKM>.

Fuzzy inference systems are based on fuzzy rules, which have a good capability for managing progressive phenomenons. This package is a basic implementation of the main functions to use a Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) provided by the open source software FisPro <https://www.fispro.org>. FisPro allows to create fuzzy inference systems and to use them for reasoning purposes, especially for simulating a physical or biological system.

Offers a generalization of the scatterplot matrix based on the recognition that most datasets include both categorical and quantitative information. Traditional grids of scatterplots often obscure important features of the data when one or more variables are categorical but coded as numerical. The generalized pairs plot offers a range of displays of paired combinations of categorical and quantitative variables. Emerson et al. (2013) <DOI:10.1080/10618600.2012.694762>.

This package provides functions which make using the Generalized Regression Estimator(GREG) J.N.K. Rao, Isabel Molina, (2015) <doi:10.3390/f11020244> and the Generalized Regression Estimator Operating on Resolutions of Y (GREGORY) easier. The functions are designed to work well within a forestry context, and estimate multiple estimation units at once. Compared to other survey estimation packages, this function has greater flexibility when describing the linear model.

The current version of the MixSAL package allows users to generate data from a multivariate SAL distribution or a mixture of multivariate SAL distributions, evaluate the probability density function of a multivariate SAL distribution or a mixture of multivariate SAL distributions, and fit a mixture of multivariate SAL distributions using the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm (see Franczak et. al, 2014, <doi:10.1109/TPAMI.2013.216>, for details).

Fast functions implemented in C++ via Rcpp to support the NeuroAnatomy Toolbox ('nat') ecosystem. These functions provide large speed-ups for basic manipulation of neuronal skeletons over pure R functions found in the nat package. The expectation is that end users will not use this package directly, but instead the nat package will automatically use routines from this package when it is available to enable large performance gains.
