This package provides a system for querying, retrieving and analyzing protocol- and results-related information on clinical trials from three public registers, the European Union Clinical Trials Register (EUCTR), ClinicalTrials.gov (CTGOV) and the ISRCTN. Trial information is downloaded, converted and stored in a database. Functions are included to identify deduplicated records, to easily find and extract variables (fields) of interest even from complex nesting as used by the registers, and to update previous queries. The package can be used for meta-analysis and trend-analysis of the design and conduct as well as for results of clinical trials.

This package provides a unified syntax for the simulation-based comparison of different single-stage basket trial designs with a binary endpoint and equal sample sizes in all baskets. Methods include the designs by Baumann et al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2309.06988>, Fujikawa et al. (2020) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201800404>, Berry et al. (2020) <doi:10.1177/1740774513497539>, Neuenschwander et al. (2016) <doi:10.1002/pst.1730> and Psioda et al. (2021) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxz014>. For the latter three designs, the functions are mostly wrappers for functions provided by the packages bhmbasket and bmabasket'.

The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of the count data models along with standard error of the estimates and Akaike information model section criterion are provided. The functions allow to compute the MLE for the following distributions such as the Bell distribution, the Borel distribution, the Poisson distribution, zero inflated Bell distribution, zero inflated Bell Touchard distribution, zero inflated Poisson distribution, zero one inflated Bell distribution and zero one inflated Poisson distribution. Moreover, the probability mass function (PMF), distribution function (CDF), quantile function (QF) and random numbers generation of the Bell Touchard and zero inflated Bell Touchard distribution are also provided.

The twoStepsBenchmark() and threeRuleSmooth() functions allow you to disaggregate a low-frequency time series with higher frequency time series, using the French National Accounts methodology. The aggregated sum of the resulting time series is strictly equal to the low-frequency time series within the benchmarking window. Typically, the low-frequency time series is an annual one, unknown for the last year, and the high frequency one is either quarterly or monthly. See "Methodology of quarterly national accounts", Insee Méthodes N°126, by Insee (2012, ISBN:978-2-11-068613-8, <https://www.insee.fr/en/information/2579410>).

This package provides functions for the computation of functional elastic shape means over sets of open planar curves. The package is particularly suitable for settings where these curves are only sparsely and irregularly observed. It uses a novel approach for elastic shape mean estimation, where planar curves are treated as complex functions and a full Procrustes mean is estimated from the corresponding smoothed Hermitian covariance surface. This is combined with the methods for elastic mean estimation proposed in Steyer, Stöcker, Greven (2022) <doi:10.1111/biom.13706>. See Stöcker et. al. (2022) <arXiv:2203.10522> for details.

This package provides tools to assist planning and monitoring of time-to-event trials under complicated censoring assumptions and/or non-proportional hazards. There are three main components: The first is analytic calculation of predicted time-to-event trial properties, providing estimates of expected hazard ratio, event numbers and power under different analysis methods. The second is simulation, allowing stochastic estimation of these same properties. Thirdly, it provides parametric event prediction using blinded trial data, including creation of prediction intervals. Methods are based upon numerical integration and a flexible object-orientated structure for defining event, censoring and recruitment distributions (Curves).

We implement and extend the Dividing Local Gaussian Process algorithm by Lederer et al. (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2006.09446>. Its main use case is in online learning where it is used to train a network of local GPs (referred to as tree) by cleverly partitioning the input space. In contrast to a single GP, GPTreeO is able to deal with larger amounts of data. The package includes methods to create the tree and set its parameter, incorporating data points from a data stream as well as making joint predictions based on all relevant local GPs.

The Graphical Group Ridge GGRidge package package classifies ridge regression predictors in disjoint groups of conditionally correlated variables and derives different penalties (shrinkage parameters) for these groups of predictors. It combines the ridge regression method with the graphical model for high-dimensional data (i.e. the number of predictors exceeds the number of cases) or ill-conditioned data (e.g. in the presence of multicollinearity among predictors). The package reduces the mean square errors and the extent of over-shrinking of predictors as compared to the ridge method.Aldahmani, S. and Zoubeidi, T. (2020) <DOI:10.1080/00949655.2020.1803320>.

This package implements Multi-Calibration Boosting (2018) <https://proceedings.mlr.press/v80/hebert-johnson18a.html> and Multi-Accuracy Boosting (2019) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1805.12317> for the multi-calibration of a machine learning model's prediction. MCBoost updates predictions for sub-groups in an iterative fashion in order to mitigate biases like poor calibration or large accuracy differences across subgroups. Multi-Calibration works best in scenarios where the underlying data & labels are unbiased, but resulting models are. This is often the case, e.g. when an algorithm fits a majority population while ignoring or under-fitting minority populations.

This package provides a new pipeline to explore chemical structural similarity across metabolites. It allows the metabolite classification in structurally-related modules and identifies common shared functional groups. The KODAMA algorithm is used to highlight structural similarity between metabolites. See Cacciatore S, Tenori L, Luchinat C, Bennett PR, MacIntyre DA.

Partially penalized versions of specific transformation models implemented in package mlt'. Available models include a fully parametric version of the Cox model, other parametric survival models (Weibull, etc.), models for binary and ordered categorical variables, normal and transformed-normal (Box-Cox type) linear models, and continuous outcome logistic regression. Hyperparameter tuning is facilitated through model-based optimization functionalities from package mlrMBO'. The accompanying vignette describes the methodology used in tramnet in detail. Transformation models and model-based optimization are described in Hothorn et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/sjos.12291> and Bischl et al. (2016) <arxiv:1703.03373>, respectively.

The goal of the package is to equip the jmcm package (current version 0.2.1) with estimations of the covariance of estimated parameters. Two methods are provided. The first method is to use the inverse of estimated Fisher's information matrix, see M. Pourahmadi (2000) <doi:10.1093/biomet/87.2.425>, M. Maadooliat, M. Pourahmadi and J. Z. Huang (2013) <doi:10.1007/s11222-011-9284-6>, and W. Zhang, C. Leng, C. Tang (2015) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12065>. The second method is bootstrap based, see Liu, R.Y. (1988) <doi:10.1214/aos/1176351062> for reference.

The speckle package contains functions for the analysis of single cell RNA-seq data. The speckle package currently contains functions to analyse differences in cell type proportions. There are also functions to estimate the parameters of the Beta distribution based on a given counts matrix, and a function to normalise a counts matrix to the median library size. There are plotting functions to visualise cell type proportions and the mean-variance relationship in cell type proportions and counts. As our research into specialised analyses of single cell data continues we anticipate that the package will be updated with new functions.

This R package provides tools for the statistical analysis of integrative genomic data that involve some combination of: genotypes, high-dimensional intermediate traits (e.g., gene expression, protein abundance), and higher-order traits (phenotypes). The package includes functions to: (1) construct global linkage maps between genetic markers and gene expression; (2) analyze multiple-locus linkage (epistasis) for gene expression; (3) quantify the proportion of genome-wide variation explained by each locus and identify eQTL hotspots; (4) estimate pair-wise causal gene regulatory probabilities and construct gene regulatory networks; and (5) identify causal genes for a quantitative trait of interest.

This package provides tools to access and manipulate Word and PowerPoint documents from R. The package focuses on tabular and graphical reporting from R; it also provides two functions that let users get document content into data objects. A set of functions lets add and remove images, tables and paragraphs of text in new or existing documents. When working with PowerPoint presentations, slides can be added or removed; shapes inside slides can also be added or removed. When working with Word documents, a cursor can be used to help insert or delete content at a specific location in the document.

This package provides a series of wrapper functions to implement the 10 maximum likelihood models of animal orientation described by Schnute and Groot (1992) <DOI:10.1016/S0003-3472(05)80068-5>. The functions also include the ability to use different optimizer methods and calculate various model selection metrics (i.e., AIC, AICc, BIC). The ability to perform variants of the Hermans-Rasson test and Pycke test is also included as described in Landler et al. (2019) <DOI:10.1186/s12898-019-0246-8>. The latest version also includes a new method to calculate circular-circular and circular-linear distance correlations.

This package provides functions to compute Generalized Likelihood Ratio Tests (GLRT) also known as Likelihood Ratio Tests (LRT) and Rao's score tests of simple and complex contrasts of Generalized Linear Models (GLMs). It provides the same interface as summary.glm(), adding GLRT P-values, less biased than Wald's P-values and consistent with profile-likelihood confidence interval generated by confint(). See Wilks (1938) <doi:10.1214/aoms/1177732360> for the LRT chi-square approximation. See Rao (1948) <doi:10.1017/S0305004100023987> for Rao's score test. See Wald (1943) <doi:10.2307/1990256> for Wald's test.

This package provides a program that conducts group variable selection for quantile and robust mean regression (Sherwood and Li, 2022). The group lasso penalty (Yuan and Lin, 2006) is used for group-wise variable selection. Both of the quantile and mean regression models are based on the Huber loss. Specifically, with the tuning parameter in the Huber loss approaching to 0, the quantile check function can be approximated by the Huber loss for the median and the tilted version of Huber loss at other quantiles. Such approximation provides computational efficiency and stability, and has also been shown to be statistical consistent.

Fits Bayesian hierarchical spatial process models for point-referenced Gaussian, Poisson, binomial, and binary data using stacking of predictive densities. It involves sampling from analytically available posterior distributions conditional upon some candidate values of the spatial process parameters and, subsequently assimilate inference from these individual posterior distributions using Bayesian predictive stacking. Our algorithm is highly parallelizable and hence, much faster than traditional Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms while delivering competitive predictive performance. See Zhang, Tang, and Banerjee (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2304.12414>, and, Pan, Zhang, Bradley, and Banerjee (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2406.04655> for details.

In addition to charts, tstools provides a super fast, data.table backed time series I/O that allows the user to export / import long format, wide format and transposed wide format data to various file types.

The barbieQ package provides a series of robust statistical tools for analysing barcode count data generated from cell clonal tracking (i.e., lineage tracing) experiments. In these experiments, an initial cell and its offspring collectively form a clone (i.e., lineage). A unique barcode sequence, incorporated into the DNA of the inital cell, is inherited within the clone. This one-to-one mapping of barcodes to clones enables clonal tracking of their behaviors. By counting barcodes, researchers can quantify the population abundance of individual clones under specific experimental perturbations. barbieQ supports barcode count data preprocessing, statistical testing, and visualization.

sRACIPE implements a randomization-based method for gene circuit modeling. It allows us to study the effect of both the gene expression noise and the parametric variation on any gene regulatory circuit (GRC) using only its topology, and simulates an ensemble of models with random kinetic parameters at multiple noise levels. Statistical analysis of the generated gene expressions reveals the basin of attraction and stability of various phenotypic states and their changes associated with intrinsic and extrinsic noises. sRACIPE provides a holistic picture to evaluate the effects of both the stochastic nature of cellular processes and the parametric variation.
