This package provides an alternative approach to aoristic analyses for archaeological datasets by fitting Bayesian parametric growth models and non-parametric random-walk Intrinsic Conditional Autoregressive (ICAR) models on time frequency data (Crema (2024)<doi:10.1111/arcm.12984>). It handles event typo-chronology based timespans defined by start/end date as well as more complex user-provided vector of probabilities.

This package provides functions to fit, via Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, the Bessel and Beta regressions to a data set with a bounded continuous response variable. The Bessel regression is a new and robust approach proposed in the literature. The EM version for the well known Beta regression is another major contribution of this package. See details in the references Barreto-Souza, Mayrink and Simas (2022) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12354> and Barreto-Souza, Mayrink and Simas (2020) <arXiv:2003.05157>.

Bayesian adaptive randomization is also called outcome adaptive randomization, which is increasingly used in clinical trials.

Decomposition of time series into trend, seasonal, and remainder components with methods for detecting and characterizing abrupt changes within the trend and seasonal components. BFAST can be used to analyze different types of satellite image time series and can be applied to other disciplines dealing with seasonal or non-seasonal time series, such as hydrology, climatology, and econometrics. The algorithm can be extended to label detected changes with information on the parameters of the fitted piecewise linear models. BFAST monitoring functionality is described in Verbesselt et al. (2010) <doi:10.1016/j.rse.2009.08.014>. BFAST monitor provides functionality to detect disturbance in near real-time based on BFAST'- type models, and is described in Verbesselt et al. (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.rse.2012.02.022>. BFAST Lite approach is a flexible approach that handles missing data without interpolation, and will be described in an upcoming paper. Furthermore, different models can now be used to fit the time series data and detect structural changes (breaks).

MDS is a statistic tool for reduction of dimensionality, using as input a distance matrix of dimensions n à n. When n is large, classical algorithms suffer from computational problems and MDS configuration can not be obtained. With this package, we address these problems by means of six algorithms, being two of them original proposals: - Landmark MDS proposed by De Silva V. and JB. Tenenbaum (2004). - Interpolation MDS proposed by Delicado P. and C. Pachón-Garcà a (2021) <arXiv:2007.11919> (original proposal). - Reduced MDS proposed by Paradis E (2018). - Pivot MDS proposed by Brandes U. and C. Pich (2007) - Divide-and-conquer MDS proposed by Delicado P. and C. Pachón-Garcà a (2021) <arXiv:2007.11919> (original proposal). - Fast MDS, proposed by Yang, T., J. Liu, L. McMillan and W. Wang (2006).

All the seeds do not germinate at a single point in time due to physiological mechanisms determined by temperature which vary among individual seeds in the population. Seeds germinate by following accumulation of thermal time in degree days/hours, quantified by multiplying the time of germination with excess of base temperature required by each seed for its germination, which follows log-normal distribution. The theoretical germination course can be obtained by regressing the rate of germination at various fractions against temperature (Garcia et al., 1982), where the fraction-wise regression lines intersect the temperature axis at base temperature and the methodology of determining optimum base temperature has been described by Ellis et al. (1987). This package helps to find the base temperature of seed germination using algorithms of Garcia et al. (1982) and Ellis et al. (1982) <doi:10.1093/JXB/38.6.1033> <doi:10.1093/jxb/33.2.288>.

It is very common nowadays for a study to collect multiple features and appropriately integrating multiple longitudinal features simultaneously for defining individual clusters becomes increasingly crucial to understanding population heterogeneity and predicting future outcomes. BCClong implements a Bayesian consensus clustering (BCC) model for multiple longitudinal features via a generalized linear mixed model. Compared to existing packages, several key features make the BCClong package appealing: (a) it allows simultaneous clustering of mixed-type (e.g., continuous, discrete and categorical) longitudinal features, (b) it allows each longitudinal feature to be collected from different sources with measurements taken at distinct sets of time points (known as irregularly sampled longitudinal data), (c) it relaxes the assumption that all features have the same clustering structure by estimating the feature-specific (local) clusterings and consensus (global) clustering.

This package provides various basis expansions for flexible regression modeling, including random Fourier features (Rahimi & Recht, 2007) <https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper_files/paper/2007/file/013a006f03dbc5392effeb8f18fda755-Paper.pdf>, exact kernel / Gaussian process feature maps, Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART) (Chipman et al., 2010) <doi:10.1214/09-AOAS285> prior features, and a helpful interface for n-way interactions. The provided functions may be used within any modeling formula, allowing the use of kernel methods and other basis expansions in modeling functions that do not otherwise support them. Along with the basis expansions, a number of kernel functions are also provided, which support kernel arithmetic to form new kernels. Basic ridge regression functionality is included as well.

Multicenter randomized trials involve the collection and analysis of data from numerous study participants across multiple sites. Outliers may be present. To identify outliers, this package examines data at the individual level (univariate and multivariate) and site-level (with and without covariate adjustment). Methods are outlined in further detail in Rigdon et al (to appear).

This package provides a simple tool to quantify the amount of transmission of an infectious disease of interest occurring within and between population groups. bumblebee uses counts of observed directed transmission pairs, identified phylogenetically from deep-sequence data or from epidemiological contacts, to quantify transmission flows within and between population groups accounting for sampling heterogeneity. Population groups might include: geographical areas (e.g. communities, regions), demographic groups (e.g. age, gender) or arms of a randomized clinical trial. See the bumblebee website for statistical theory, documentation and examples <https://magosil86.github.io/bumblebee/>.
