extends the statistical technique of canonical correlation analysis to the setting where original individual-level records are not available, and employs a covariance shrinkage algorithm to achieve robustness.
The genome is divided into non-overlapping fixed-sized bins, number of sequence reads in each counted, adjusted with a simultaneous two-dimensional loess correction for sequence mappability and GC content, and filtered to remove spurious regions in the genome. Downstream steps of segmentation and calling are also implemented via packages DNAcopy and CGHcall, respectively.
This package contains various routines for drawing ellipses and ellipse-like confidence regions, implementing the plots described in Murdoch and Chow (1996), A graphical display of large correlation matrices, The American Statistician 50, 178-180. There are also routines implementing the profile plots described in Bates and Watts (1988), Nonlinear Regression Analysis and its Applications.
This package implements a general framework for finite mixtures of regression models using the EM algorithm. FlexMix provides the E-step and all data handling, while the M-step can be supplied by the user to easily define new models. Existing drivers implement mixtures of standard linear models, generalized linear models and model-based clustering.

The 6581 SID chip is the sound chip used in the Commodore 64 computer. reMID is a MIDI implementation of the 6581 SID chip using the reSID library to provide a virtual SID-based synthesizer, controllable in real-time via MIDI. It includes support for scripted instruments that allow complex sonic control of the chip.
Indirect method for the estimation of reference intervals using Real-World Data ('RWD'). It takes routine measurements of diagnostic tests, containing pathological and non-pathological samples as input and uses sophisticated statistical methods to derive a model describing the distribution of the non-pathological samples. This distribution can then be used to derive reference intervals. Furthermore, the package offers functions for printing and plotting the results of the algorithm. See ?refineR
for a more comprehensive description of the features. Version 1.0 of the algorithm is described in detail in Ammer et al. (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41598-021-95301-2>. Additional guidance on the usage of the algorithm is given in Ammer et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/jalm/jfac101>.
