The novels contained in this collection are "Du cote de chez Swann ", "A l'ombre des jeunes filles en fleurs","Le Cote de Guermantes", "Sodome et Gomorrhe I et II", "La Prisonniere", "Albertine disparue", and "Le Temps retrouve".
Uses the fst package to store genotype probabilities on disk for the qtl2 package. These genotype probabilities are a central data object for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTL), but they can be quite large. The facilities in this package enable the genotype probabilities to be stored on disk, leading to reduced memory usage with only a modest increase in computation time.

An implementation of a boosted Tweedie compound Poisson model proposed by Yang, Y., Qian, W. and Zou, H. (2018) <doi:10.1080/07350015.2016.1200981>. It is capable of fitting a flexible nonlinear Tweedie compound Poisson model (or a gamma model) and capturing high-order interactions among predictors. This package is based on the gbm package originally developed by Greg Ridgeway.
The goal of MineICA is to perform Independent Component Analysis (ICA) on multiple transcriptome datasets, integrating additional data (e.g molecular, clinical and pathological). This Integrative ICA helps the biological interpretation of the components by studying their association with variables (e.g sample annotations) and gene sets, and enables the comparison of components from different datasets using correlation-based graph.
This package generates ROC plots. Most ROC curve plots obscure the cutoff values and inhibit interpretation and comparison of multiple curves. This attempts to address those shortcomings by providing plotting and interactive tools. Functions are provided to generate an interactive ROC curve plot for web use, and print versions. A Shiny application implementing the functions is also included.
Network Security Services (NSS) is a set of libraries designed to support cross-platform development of security-enabled client and server applications. Applications built with NSS can support SSL v2 and v3, TLS, PKCS #5, PKCS #7, PKCS #11, PKCS #12, S/MIME, X.509 v3 certificates, and other security standards.
This package tracks the Rapid Release channel, which updates frequently.
Left, right or interval censored mixed-effects linear model with autoregressive errors of order p or DEC correlation structure using the type-EM algorithm. The error distribution can be Normal or t-Student. It provides the parameter estimates, the standard errors and prediction of future observations (available only for the normal case). Olivari et all (2021) <doi:10.1080/10543406.2020.1852246>.
Creating spatially or environmentally separated folds for cross-validation to provide a robust error estimation in spatially structured environments; Investigating and visualising the effective range of spatial autocorrelation in continuous raster covariates and point samples to find an initial realistic distance band to separate training and testing datasets spatially described in Valavi, R. et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13107>.
This package provides functions for species distribution modeling, calibration and evaluation, ensemble of models, ensemble forecasting and visualization. The package permits to run consistently up to 10 single models on a presence/absences (resp presences/pseudo-absences) dataset and to combine them in ensemble models and ensemble projections. Some bench of other evaluation and visualization tools are also available within the package.
This package provides a matrix of agreement patterns and counts for record pairs is the input for the procedure. An EM algorithm is used to impute plausible values for missing record pairs. A second EM algorithm, incorporating possible correlations between per-field agreement, is used to estimate posterior probabilities that each pair is a true match - i.e. constitutes the same individual.
Convex Partition is a black-box optimisation algorithm for single objective real-parameters functions. The basic principle is to progressively estimate and exploit a regression tree similar to a CART (Classification and Regression Tree) of the objective function. For more details see de Paz (2024) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-62836-8_3> and Loh (2011) <doi:10.1002/widm.8> .
This package provides tools to fit sample selection models in case of discrete response variables, through a parametric formulation which represents a natural extension of the well-known Heckman selection model are provided in the package. The response variable can be of Bernoulli, Poisson or Negative Binomial type. The sample selection mechanism allows to choose among a Normal, Logistic or Gumbel distribution.
The Economic Policy Institute (<https://www.epi.org/>) provides researchers, media, and the public with easily accessible, up-to-date, and comprehensive historical data on the American labor force. It is compiled from Economic Policy Institute analysis of government data sources. Use it to research wages, inequality, and other economic indicators over time and among demographic groups. Data is usually updated monthly.
On import, the XML information is converted to a dataframe that reflects the hierarchical XML structure. Intuitive functions allow to navigate within this transparent XML data structure (without any knowledge of XPath'). flatXML also provides tools to extract data from the XML into a flat dataframe that can be used to perform statistical operations. It also supports converting dataframes to XML.
Fit linear mixed-effects models using restricted (or residual) maximum likelihood (REML) and with generalized inverse matrices to specify covariance structures for random effects. In particular, the package is suited to fit quantitative genetic mixed models, often referred to as animal models'. Implements the average information algorithm as the main tool to maximize the restricted log-likelihood, but with other algorithms available.
Utilities to cost and evaluate Australian tax policy, including fast projections of personal income tax collections, high-performance tax and transfer calculators, and an interface to common indices from the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

Some basic functions to implement belief functions including: transformation between belief functions using the method introduced by Philippe Smets <arXiv:1304.1122>, evidence combination, evidence discounting, decision-making, and constructing masses. Currently, thirteen combination rules and six decision rules are supported. It can also be used to generate different types of random masses when working on belief combination and conflict management.
