This package provides an implementation of simultaneous tolerance bounds (STB), useful for checking whether a numeric vector fits to a hypothetical null-distribution or not. Furthermore, there are functions for computing STB (bands, intervals) for random variates of linear mixed models fitted with package VCA'. All kinds of, possibly transformed (studentized, standardized, Pearson-type transformed) random variates (residuals, random effects), can be assessed employing STB-methodology.
Calculates the Urban Centrality Index (UCI) as in Pereira et al., (2013) <doi:10.1111/gean.12002>. The UCI measures the extent to which the spatial organization of a city or region varies from extreme polycentric to extreme monocentric in a continuous scale from 0 to 1. Values closer to 0 indicate more polycentric patterns and values closer to 1 indicate a more monocentric urban form.
The basic idea of latent semantic analysis (LSA) is, that text do have a higher order (=latent semantic) structure which, however, is obscured by word usage (e.g. through the use of synonyms or polysemy). By using conceptual indices that are derived statistically via a truncated singular value decomposition (a two-mode factor analysis) over a given document-term matrix, this variability problem can be overcome.

; dmm is an implementation of dispersion mean model described by Searle et al. (1992) "Variance Components", Wiley, NY. DMM can do MINQUE', bias-corrected-ML', and REML variance component estimates.
This package provides a function composition operator to chain a series of calls into a single function, mimicking the math notion of (f o g o h)(x) = h(g(f(x))). Inspired by pipeOp
('|>') since R4.1 and magrittr pipe ('%>%'), the operator build a pipe without putting data through, which is best for anonymous function accepted by utilities such as apply()
and lapply()
.
This package provides functions to help in fitting models to data, to perform Monte Carlo, sensitivity and identifiability analysis. It is intended to work with models be written as a set of differential equations that are solved either by an integration routine from package deSolve
', or a steady-state solver from package rootSolve
'. However, the methods can also be used with other types of functions.
An implementation of the mixed neighbourhood selection (MNS) algorithm. The MNS algorithm can be used to estimate multiple related precision matrices. In particular, the motivation behind this work was driven by the need to understand functional connectivity networks across multiple subjects. This package also contains an implementation of a novel algorithm through which to simulate multiple related precision matrices which exhibit properties frequently reported in neuroimaging analysis.
Estimate the NNT using the proposed method in Yang and Yin's paper (2019) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0223301>, in which the NNT-RMST (number needed to treat based on the restricted mean survival time) is defined as the RMST (restricted mean survival time) in the control group divided by the difference in RMSTs between the treatment and control groups up to a chosen time t.
Identification and estimation of the autoregressive threshold models with Gaussian noise, as well as positive-valued time series. The package provides the identification of the number of regimes, the thresholds and the autoregressive orders, as well as the estimation of remain parameters. The package implements the methodology from the 2005 paper: Modeling Bivariate Threshold Autoregressive Processes in the Presence of Missing Data <DOI:10.1081/STA-200054435>.
This package provides functions to create factor variables with contrasts based on weighted effect coding, and their interactions. In weighted effect coding the estimates from a first order regression model show the deviations per group from the sample mean. This is especially useful when a researcher has no directional hypotheses and uses a sample from a population in which the number of observation per group is different.
This package contains functions for removing batch effects and other unwanted variation in high-throughput experiment. It also contains functions for identifying and building surrogate variables for high-dimensional data sets. Surrogate variables are covariates constructed directly from high-dimensional data like gene expression/RNA sequencing/methylation/brain imaging data that can be used in subsequent analyses to adjust for unknown, unmodeled, or latent sources of noise.
This package includes tools for marginal maximum likelihood estimation and joint maximum likelihood estimation for unidimensional and multidimensional item response models. The package functionality covers the Rasch model, 2PL model, 3PL model, generalized partial credit model, multi-faceted Rasch model, nominal item response model, structured latent class model, mixture distribution IRT models, and located latent class models. Latent regression models and plausible value imputation are also supported.
Probability mass function, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the Complex Triparametric Pearson (CTP) and Complex Biparametric Pearson (CBP) distributions developed by Rodriguez-Avi et al (2003) <doi:10.1007/s00362-002-0134-7>, Rodriguez-Avi et al (2004) <doi:10.1007/BF02778271> and Olmo-Jimenez et al (2018) <doi:10.1080/00949655.2018.1482897>.

Compute the dynamic threshold panel model suggested by (Stephanie Kremer, Alexander Bick and Dieter Nautz (2013) <doi:10.1007/s00181-012-0553-9>) in which they extended the (Hansen (1999) <doi: 10.1016/S0304-4076(99)00025-1>) original static panel threshold estimation and the Caner and (Hansen (2004) <doi:10.1017/S0266466604205011>) cross-sectional instrumental variable threshold model, where generalized methods of moments type estimators are used.
This is an R package implementing the epidemic volatility index (EVI), as discussed by Kostoulas et. al. (2021) and variations by Pateras et. al. (2023). EVI is a new, conceptually simple, early warning tool for oncoming epidemic waves. EVI is based on the volatility of newly reported cases per unit of time, ideally per day, and issues an early warning when the volatility change rate exceeds a threshold.
Compares how well different models estimate a quantity of interest (the "focus") so that different models may be preferred for different purposes. Comparisons within any class of models fitted by maximum likelihood are supported, with shortcuts for commonly-used classes such as generalised linear models and parametric survival models. The methods originate from Claeskens and Hjort (2003) <doi:10.1198/016214503000000819> and Claeskens and Hjort (2008, ISBN:9780521852258).
