Simulating, visualizing and comparing tumor clonal data by using simple commands. This aims at providing a tool to help researchers to easily simulate tumor data and analyze the results of their approaches for studying the composition and the evolutionary history of tumors.
This package implements the vine copula based kernel density estimator of Nagler and Czado (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2016.07.003>. The estimator does not suffer from the curse of dimensionality and is therefore well suited for high-dimensional applications.
This package performs extreme value analysis at multiple locations using functions from the evd package. Supports both point-based and gridded input data using the terra package, enabling flexible looping across spatial datasets for batch processing of generalised extreme value, Gumbel fits.
Various kinds of plots (observations, variables, correlations, weights, regression coefficients and Variable Importance in the Projection) and aids to interpretation (coefficients, Q2, correlations, redundancies) for partial least squares regressions computed with the pls package, following Tenenhaus (1998, ISBN:2-7108-0735-1).
Compute important quantities when we consider stochastic systems that are observed continuously. Such as, Cost model, Limiting distribution, Transition matrix, Transition distribution and Occupancy matrix. The methods are described, for example, Ross S. (2014), Introduction to Probability Models. Eleven Edition. Academic Press.
This package provides utility functions for multivariate analysis (factor analysis, discriminant analysis, and others). The package is primary written for the course Multivariate analysis and for the course Computer intensive methods at the masters program of Applied Statistics at University of Ljubljana.
Given a CSV file with titles and abstracts, the package creates a document-term matrix that is lemmatized and stemmed and can directly be used to train machine learning methods for automatic title-abstract screening in the preparation of a meta analysis.
This package provides methods for Geographically Weighted Regression with spatial autocorrelation (Geniaux and Martinetti 2017) <doi:10.1016/j.regsciurbeco.2017.04.001>. Implements Multiscale Geographically Weighted Regression with Top-Down Scale approaches (Geniaux 2026) <doi:10.1007/s10109-025-00481-4>.
This package provides an R interface to the OMOPHub API for accessing OHDSI ATHENA standardized medical vocabularies. Supports concept search, semantic search using neural embeddings, concept similarity, vocabulary exploration, hierarchy navigation, relationship queries, and concept mappings with automatic pagination and rate limiting.
This package provides a programmatic interface to the OpenM++ microsimulation platform (<https://openmpp.org>). The primary goal of this package is to wrap the OpenM++ Web Service (OMS) to provide OpenM++ users a programmatic interface for the R language.
This package provides a shiny application for teaching introductory quantitative genetics and plant breeding through interactive simulations. The application relies on established plant breeding and quantitative genetic theory found in Falconer and Mackay (1996, ISBN:0582243025) and Bernardo (2010, ISBN:978-0972072427).
M-estimators of location and shape following the power family (Frahm, Nordhausen, Oja (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2019.104569>) are provided in the case of complete data and also when observations have missing values together with functions aiding their visualization.
Algorithm to estimate the Sobol indices using a non-parametric fit of the regression curve. The bandwidth is estimated using bootstrap to reduce the finite-sample bias. The package is based on the paper SolĂ s, M. (2018) <arXiv:1803.03333>.
This package provides functions that wrap HTML Bootstrap components code to enable the design and layout of informative landing home pages for Shiny applications. This can lead to a better user experience for the users and writing less HTML for the developer.
Estimate morphometric and gonadal size at sexual maturity for organisms, usually fish and invertebrates. It includes methods for classification based on relative growth (using principal components analysis, hierarchical clustering, discriminant analysis), logistic regression (Frequentist or Bayes), parameters estimation and some basic plots.
Handling taxonomic lists through objects of class taxlist'. This package provides functions to import species lists from Turboveg (<https://www.synbiosys.alterra.nl/turboveg/>) and the possibility to create backups from resulting R-objects. Also quick displays are implemented as summary-methods.
Enables all rstan functionality for a TMB model object, in particular MCMC sampling and chain visualization. Sampling can be performed with or without Laplace approximation for the random effects. This is demonstrated in Monnahan & Kristensen (2018) <DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0197954>.
METIS is a set of serial programs for partitioning graphs, partitioning finite element meshes, and producing fill-reducing orderings for sparse matrices. The algorithms implemented in METIS are based on the multilevel recursive-bisection, multilevel k-way, and multi-constraint partitioning schemes.
An easy way to analyze international large-scale assessments and surveys in education or any other dataset that includes replicated weights (Balanced Repeated Replication (BRR) weights, Jackknife replicate weights,...) while also allowing for analysis with multiply imputed variables (plausible values). It supports the estimation of univariate statistics (e.g. mean, variance, standard deviation, quantiles), frequencies, correlation, linear regression and any other model already implemented in R that takes a data frame and weights as parameters. It also includes options to prepare the results for publication, following the table formatting standards of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
Enables the calibration and analysis of radiocarbon dates, often but not exclusively for the purposes of archaeological research. It includes functions not only for basic calibration, uncalibration, and plotting of one or more dates, but also a statistical framework for building demographic and related longitudinal inferences from aggregate radiocarbon date lists, including: Monte-Carlo simulation test (Timpson et al 2014 <doi:10.1016/j.jas.2014.08.011>), random mark permutation test (Crema et al 2016 <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0154809>) and spatial permutation tests (Crema, Bevan, and Shennan 2017 <doi:10.1016/j.jas.2017.09.007>).
