Bayesian changepoint detection will simply be an option in the function from the package bulletxtrctr which identifies the groove locations.

This package provides a statistical tool to inference the multi-level partial correlations based on multi-subject time series data, especially for brain functional connectivity. It combines both individual and population level inference by using the methods of Qiu and Zhou. (2021)<DOI: 10.1080/01621459.2021.1917417> and Genovese and Wasserman. (2006)<DOI: 10.1198/016214506000000339>. It realizes two reliable estimation methods of partial correlation coefficients, using scaled lasso and lasso. It can be used to estimate individual- or population-level partial correlations, identify nonzero ones, and find out unequal partial correlation coefficients between two populations.

Fits a piecewise exponential hazard to survival data using a Hierarchical Bayesian model with an Intrinsic Conditional Autoregressive formulation for the spatial dependency in the hazard rates for each piece. This function uses Metropolis- Hastings-Green MCMC to allow the number of split points to vary and also uses Stochastic Search Variable Selection to determine what covariates drive the risk of the event. This function outputs trace plots depicting the number of split points in the hazard and the number of variables included in the hazard. The function saves all posterior quantities to the desired path.

It handles event typo-chronology based timespans defined by start/end date as well as more complex user-provided vector of probabilities.

General-purpose MCMC and SMC samplers, as well as plots and diagnostic functions for Bayesian statistics, with a particular focus on calibrating complex system models.

This package provides a new class of Bayesian meta-analysis models that incorporates a model for internal and external validity bias. In this way, it is possible to combine studies of diverse quality and different types. For example, we can combine the results of randomized control trials (RCTs) with the results of observational studies (OS).

Two practical tests are provided for assessing whether multiple covariates in a treatment group and a matched control group are balanced in observational studies.

This package provides tools for bioinformatics modeling using recursive transformer-inspired architectures, autoencoders, random forests, XGBoost, and stacked ensemble models. Includes utilities for cross-validation, calibration, benchmarking, and threshold optimization in predictive modeling workflows. The methodology builds on ensemble learning (Breiman 2001 <doi:10.1023/A:1010933404324>), gradient boosting (Chen and Guestrin 2016 <doi:10.1145/2939672.2939785>), autoencoders (Hinton and Salakhutdinov 2006 <doi:10.1126/science.1127647>), and recursive transformer efficiency approaches such as Mixture-of-Recursions (Bae et al. 2025 <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2507.10524>).

Enables off-the-shelf functionality for fully Bayesian, nonstationary Gaussian process modeling. The approach to nonstationary modeling involves a closed-form, convolution-based covariance function with spatially-varying parameters; these parameter processes can be specified either deterministically (using covariates or basis functions) or stochastically (using approximate Gaussian processes). Stationary Gaussian processes are a special case of our methodology, and we furthermore implement approximate Gaussian process inference to account for very large spatial data sets (Finley, et al (2017) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1702.00434>). Bayesian inference is carried out using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods via the "nimble" package, and posterior prediction for the Gaussian process at unobserved locations is provided as a post-processing step.
