Gradient-Enhanced Kriging as an emulator for computer experiments based on Maximum-Likelihood estimation.

Several methods may be found for selecting a subset of regressors from a set of k candidate variables in multiple linear regression. One possibility is to evaluate all possible regression models and comparing them using Mallows's Cp statistic (Cp) according to Gilmour original study. Full model is calculated, all possible combinations of regressors are generated, adjusted Cp for each submodel are computed, and the submodel with the minimum adjusted value Cp (ModelMin) is calculated. To identify the final model, the package applies a sequence of hypothesis tests on submodels nested within ModelMin, following the approach outlined in Gilmour's original paper. For more details see the help of the function final_model() and the original study (1996) <doi:10.2307/2348411>.

This package provides a model building procedure to build parsimonious geoadditive model from a large number of covariates. Continuous, binary and ordered categorical responses are supported. The model building is based on component wise gradient boosting with linear effects, smoothing splines and a smooth spatial surface to model spatial autocorrelation. The resulting covariate set after gradient boosting is further reduced through backward elimination and aggregation of factor levels. The package provides a model based bootstrap method to simulate prediction intervals for point predictions. A test data set of a soil mapping case study in Berne (Switzerland) is provided.

An R interface to weighted nonlinear least-squares optimization with the GNU Scientific Library (GSL), see M. Galassi et al. (2009, ISBN:0954612078). The available trust region methods include the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm with and without geodesic acceleration, the Steihaug-Toint conjugate gradient algorithm for large systems and several variants of Powell's dogleg algorithm. Multi-start optimization based on quasi-random samples is implemented using a modified version of the algorithm in Hickernell and Yuan (1997, OR Transactions). Robust nonlinear regression can be performed using various robust loss functions, in which case the optimization problem is solved by iterative reweighted least squares (IRLS). Bindings are provided to tune a number of parameters affecting the low-level aspects of the trust region algorithms. The interface mimics R's nls() function and returns model objects inheriting from the same class.

This package provides a reproducible pipeline to conduct genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and extract single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for a human trait or disease. Given aggregated GWAS dataset(s) and a user-defined significance threshold, the package retrieves significant SNPs from the GWAS Catalog using supported trait identifiers, annotates their gene context, and can write a harmonised metadata table in comma-separated values (CSV) format, genomic intervals in the Browser Extensible Data (BED) format, and sequences in the FASTA (text-based sequence) format with user-defined flanking regions for clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) guide design. The existing efo_id argument is retained for backward compatibility. The package prepares computational artifacts for downstream workflows; it does not perform biological causality testing, clinical interpretation, therapeutic design, or wet-lab validation. For details on the resources and methods see: Buniello et al. (2019) <doi:10.1093/nar/gky1120>; Sollis et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkac1010>; Jinek et al. (2012) <doi:10.1126/science.1225829>.

This function converts mfpr, numeric, or character strings representing numbers to bigq format without loss of precision.

This package implements the Generalized Method of Wavelet Moments with Exogenous Inputs estimator (GMWMX) presented in Voirol, L., Xu, H., Zhang, Y., Insolia, L., Molinari, R. and Guerrier, S. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2409.05160>. The GMWMX estimator allows to estimate functional and stochastic parameters of linear models with correlated residuals in presence of missing data. The gmwmx2 package provides functions to load and plot Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data from the Nevada Geodetic Laboratory and functions to estimate linear model model with correlated residuals in presence of missing data.

An implementation of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) generalized consensus estimators used to assign the reference value in a key comparison exercise. This can also be applied to any interlaboratory study. Given a set of different sources, primary laboratories or measurement methods this package provides an evaluation of the variance components according to the selected statistical method for consensus building. It also implements the comparison among different consensus builders and evaluates the participating method or sources against the consensus reference value. Based on a diverse set of references, DerSimonian-Laird (1986) <doi:10.1016/0197-2456(86)90046-2>, for a complete list of references look at the reference section in the package documentation.

GEE estimation of the parameters in mean structures with possible correlation between the outcomes. User-specified mean link and variance functions are allowed, along with observation weighting.

Gaussian processes are flexible distributions to model functional data. Whilst theoretically appealing, they are computationally cumbersome except for small datasets. This package implements two methods for scaling Gaussian process inference in Stan'. First, a sparse approximation of the likelihood that is generally applicable and, second, an exact method for regularly spaced data modeled by stationary kernels using fast Fourier methods. Utility functions are provided to compile and fit Stan models using the cmdstanr interface. References: Hoffmann and Onnela (2025) <doi:10.18637/jss.v112.i02>.
