Multiple testing procedures for heterogeneous and discrete tests as described in Döhler and Roquain (2020) <doi:10.1214/20-EJS1771>. The main algorithms of the paper are available as continuous, discrete and weighted versions. They take as input the results of a test procedure from package DiscreteTests', or a set of observed p-values and their discrete support under their nulls. A shortcut function to obtain such p-values and supports is also provided, along with wrappers allowing to apply discrete procedures directly to data.

Builds and runs c++ code for classes that encapsulate state space model, particle filtering algorithm pairs. Algorithms include the Bootstrap Filter from Gordon et al. (1993) <doi:10.1049/ip-f-2.1993.0015>, the generic SISR filter, the Auxiliary Particle Filter from Pitt et al (1999) <doi:10.2307/2670179>, and a variety of Rao-Blackwellized particle filters inspired by Andrieu et al. (2002) <doi:10.1111/1467-9868.00363>. For more details on the c++ library pf', see Brown (2020) <doi:10.21105/joss.02599>.

Developed to perform the estimation and inference for regression coefficient parameters in longitudinal marginal models using the method of quadratic inference functions. Like generalized estimating equations, this method is also a quasi-likelihood inference method. It has been showed that the method gives consistent estimators of the regression coefficients even if the correlation structure is misspecified, and it is more efficient than GEE when the correlation structure is misspecified. Based on Qu, A., Lindsay, B.G. and Li, B. (2000) <doi:10.1093/biomet/87.4.823>.

This package provides researchers with a simple set of diagnostic tools for monitoring the progress and reliability of raters conducting content coding tasks. Goehring (2024) <https://bengoehring.github.io/improving-content-analysis-tools-for-working-with-undergraduate-research-assistants.pdf> argues that supervisors---especially supervisors of small teams---should utilize computational tools to monitor reliability in real time. As such, this package provides easy-to-use functions for calculating inter-rater reliability statistics and measuring the reliability of one coder compared to the rest of the team.

This package provides methods for fast access to large ASCII files. Currently the following file formats are supported: comma separated format (CSV) and fixed width format. It is assumed that the files are too large to fit into memory, although the package can also be used to efficiently access files that do fit into memory. Methods are provided to access and process files blockwise. Furthermore, an opened file can be accessed as one would an ordinary data.frame. The LaF vignette gives an overview of the functionality provided.

PAA imports single color (protein) microarray data that has been saved in gpr file format - esp. ProtoArray data. After preprocessing (background correction, batch filtering, normalization) univariate feature preselection is performed (e.g., using the "minimum M statistic" approach - hereinafter referred to as "mMs"). Subsequently, a multivariate feature selection is conducted to discover biomarker candidates. Therefore, either a frequency-based backwards elimination aproach or ensemble feature selection can be used. PAA provides a complete toolbox of analysis tools including several different plots for results examination and evaluation.

This package provides a collection of tools to create, use and maintain modularized model code written in the modeling language GAMS (<https://www.gams.com/>). Out-of-the-box GAMS does not come with support for modularized model code. This package provides the tools necessary to convert a standard GAMS model to a modularized one by introducing a modularized code structure together with a naming convention which emulates local environments. In addition, this package provides tools to monitor the compliance of the model code with modular coding guidelines.

Generalized factor model is implemented for ultra-high dimensional data with mixed-type variables. Two algorithms, variational EM and alternate maximization, are designed to implement the generalized factor model, respectively. The factor matrix and loading matrix together with the number of factors can be well estimated. This model can be employed in social and behavioral sciences, economy and finance, and genomics, to extract interpretable nonlinear factors. More details can be referred to Wei Liu, Huazhen Lin, Shurong Zheng and Jin Liu. (2023) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2021.1999818>.

This package provides a high level interface for torch providing utilities to reduce the the amount of code needed for common tasks, abstract away torch details and make the same code work on both the CPU and GPU'. It's flexible enough to support expressing a large range of models. It's heavily inspired by fastai by Howard et al. (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2002.04688>, Keras by Chollet et al. (2015) and PyTorch Lightning by Falcon et al. (2019) <doi:10.5281/zenodo.3828935>.

This package provides a framework for organizing R projects with a standardized structure. Most analyses consist of three main components: code, results, and data, each with different requirements such as version control, sharing, and encryption. This package provides tools to set up and manage project directories, handle file paths consistently across operating systems, organize results using date-based structures, source code from specified directories, create and manage Quarto documents, and perform file operations safely. It ensures consistency across projects while accommodating different requirements for various types of content.

Post-processing functions allow for inferring posterior inclusion and model probabilities, various moments, coefficient and predictive densities. Plotting functions available for posterior model size, MCMC convergence, predictive and coefficient densities, best models representation, BMA comparison. Also includes Bayesian normal-conjugate linear model with Zellner's g prior, and assorted methods.

Firstly, both functions of the univariate Poisson dispersion index (DI) for count data and the univariate exponential variation index (VI) for nonnegative continuous data are performed. Next, other functions of univariate indexes such the binomial dispersion index (DIb), the negative binomial dispersion index (DInb) and the inverse Gaussian variation index (VIiG) are given. Finally, we are computed some multivariate versions of these functions such that the generalized dispersion index (GDI) with its marginal one (MDI) and the generalized variation index (GVI) with its marginal one (MVI) too.

Analysis of complex ANOVA models with any combination of orthogonal/nested and fixed/random factors, as described by Underwood (1997). There are two restrictions: (i) data must be balanced; (ii) fixed nested factors are not allowed. Homogeneity of variances is checked using Cochran's C test and a posteriori comparisons of means are done using Student-Newman-Keuls (SNK) procedure. For those terms with no denominator in the F-ratio calculation, pooled mean squares and quasi F-ratios are provided. Magnitute of effects are assessed by components of variation.

This package provides probability density functions and sampling algorithms for three key distributions from the General Unimodal Distribution (GUD) family: the Flexible Gumbel (FG) distribution, the Double Two-Piece (DTP) Student-t distribution, and the Two-Piece Scale (TPSC) Student-t distribution. Additionally, this package includes a function for Bayesian linear modal regression, leveraging these three distributions for model fitting. The details of the Bayesian modal regression model based on the GUD family can be found at Liu, Huang, and Bai (2024) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2024.108012>.

Computes Logistic Knowledge Tracing ('LKT') which is a general method for tracking human learning in an educational software system. Please see Pavlik, Eglington, and Harrel-Williams (2021) <https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9616435>. LKT is a method to compute features of student data that are used as predictors of subsequent performance. LKT allows great flexibility in the choice of predictive components and features computed for these predictive components. The system is built on top of LiblineaR', which enables extremely fast solutions compared to base glm() in R.

Derives prediction rule ensembles (PREs). Largely follows the procedure for deriving PREs as described in Friedman & Popescu (2008; <DOI:10.1214/07-AOAS148>), with adjustments and improvements described in Fokkema (2020; <DOI:10.18637/jss.v092.i12>) and Fokkema & Strobl (2020; <DOI:10.1037/met0000256>). The main function pre() derives prediction rule ensembles consisting of rules and/or linear terms for continuous, binary, count, multinomial, survival and multivariate continuous responses. Function gpe() derives generalized prediction ensembles, consisting of rules, hinge and linear functions of the predictor variables.

Implementation of Stepwise Clustered Ensemble (SCE) and Stepwise Cluster Analysis (SCA) for multivariate data analysis. The package provides comprehensive tools for feature selection, model training, prediction, and evaluation in hydrological and environmental modeling applications. Key functionalities include recursive feature elimination (RFE), Wilks feature importance analysis, model validation through out-of-bag (OOB) validation, and ensemble prediction capabilities. The package supports both single and multivariate response variables, making it suitable for complex environmental modeling scenarios. For more details see Li et al. (2021) <doi:10.5194/hess-25-4947-2021>.

This package provides different approaches for selecting the threshold in generalized Pareto distributions. Most of them are based on minimizing the AMSE-criterion or at least by reducing the bias of the assumed GPD-model. Others are heuristically motivated by searching for stable sample paths, i.e. a nearly constant region of the tail index estimator with respect to k, which is the number of data in the tail. The third class is motivated by graphical inspection. In addition, a sequential testing procedure for GPD-GoF-tests is also implemented here.

This package implements the Classification-based on Association Rules (CBA) algorithm for association rule classification. The package, also described in Hahsler et al. (2019) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2019-048>, contains several convenience methods that allow to automatically set CBA parameters (minimum confidence, minimum support) and it also natively handles numeric attributes by integrating a pre-discretization step. The rule generation phase is handled by the arules package. To further decrease the size of the CBA models produced by the arc package, postprocessing by the qCBA package is suggested.

The fxl Charting package is used to prepare and design single case design figures that are typically prepared in spreadsheet software. With fxl', there is no need to leave the R environment to prepare these works and many of the more unique conventions in single case experimental designs can be performed without the need for physically constructing features of plots (e.g., drawing annotations across plots). Support is provided for various different plotting arrangements (e.g., multiple baseline), annotations (e.g., brackets, arrows), and output formats (e.g., svg, rasters).

Factor analysis implementation for multiple data sources, i.e., for groups of variables. The whole data analysis pipeline is provided, including functions and recommendations for data normalization and model definition, as well as missing value prediction and model visualization. The model group factor analysis (GFA) is inferred with Gibbs sampling, and it has been presented originally by Virtanen et al. (2012), and extended in Klami et al. (2015) <DOI:10.1109/TNNLS.2014.2376974> and Bunte et al. (2016) <DOI:10.1093/bioinformatics/btw207>; for details, see the citation info.

Implementation of Narrowest Significance Pursuit, a general and flexible methodology for automatically detecting localised regions in data sequences which each must contain a change-point (understood as an abrupt change in the parameters of an underlying linear model), at a prescribed global significance level. Narrowest Significance Pursuit works with a wide range of distributional assumptions on the errors, and yields exact desired finite-sample coverage probabilities, regardless of the form or number of the covariates. For details, see P. Fryzlewicz (2021) <https://stats.lse.ac.uk/fryzlewicz/nsp/nsp.pdf>.

Implementation of optimistic optimization methods for global optimization of deterministic or stochastic functions. The algorithms feature guarantees of the convergence to a global optimum. They require minimal assumptions on the (only local) smoothness, where the smoothness parameter does not need to be known. They are expected to be useful for the most difficult functions when we have no information on smoothness and the gradients are unknown or do not exist. Due to the weak assumptions, however, they can be mostly effective only in small dimensions, for example, for hyperparameter tuning.
