This package provides a comprehensive high-level package, for composite indicator construction and analysis. It is a "development environment" for composite indicators and scoreboards, which includes utilities for construction (indicator selection, denomination, imputation, data treatment, normalisation, weighting and aggregation) and analysis (multivariate analysis, correlation plotting, short cuts for principal component analysis, global sensitivity analysis, and more). A composite indicator is completely encapsulated inside a single hierarchical list called a "coin". This allows a fast and efficient work flow, as well as making quick copies, testing methodological variations and making comparisons. It also includes many plotting options, both statistical (scatter plots, distribution plots) as well as for presenting results.

This package provides a set of functions for applying a restricted linear algebra to the analysis of count-based data. See the accompanying preprint manuscript: "Normalizing need not be the norm: count-based math for analyzing single-cell data" Church et al (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.06.01.494334> This tool is specifically designed to analyze count matrices from single cell RNA sequencing assays. The tools implement several count-based approaches for standard steps in single-cell RNA-seq analysis, including scoring genes and cells, comparing cells and clustering, calculating differential gene expression, and several methods for rank reduction. There are many opportunities for further optimization that may prove useful in the analysis of other data. We provide the source code freely available at <https://github.com/shchurch/countland> and encourage users and developers to fork the code for their own purposes.

This package implements clustering techniques such as Proximus and Rock, utility functions for efficient computation of cross distances and data manipulation.

Matrix-variate covariance estimation via the Kronecker-core decomposition. Computes the Kronecker and core covariance matrices corresponding to an arbitrary covariance matrix, and provides an empirical Bayes covariance estimator that adaptively shrinks towards the space of separable covariance matrices. For details, see Hoff, McCormack and Zhang (2022) <arXiv:2207.12484> "Core Shrinkage Covariance Estimation for Matrix-variate data".

Toolkit for processing and calling interactions in capture Hi-C data. Converts BAM files into counts of reads linking restriction fragments, and identifies pairs of fragments that interact more than expected by chance. Significant interactions are identified by comparing the observed read count to the expected background rate from a count regression model.

Generate synthetic station-based monthly climate time-series including temperature and rainfall, export to Network Common Data Form (NetCDF), and provide visualization helpers for climate workflows. The approach is inspired by statistical weather generator concepts described in Wilks (1999) <doi:10.1016/S0168-1923(99)00037-4> and Richardson (1981) <doi:10.1029/WR017i001p00182>.

Build dendrograms with sample groups highlighted by different colors. Visualize results of hierarchical clustering analyses as dendrograms whose leaves and labels are colored according to sample grouping. Assess whether data point grouping aligns to naturally occurring clusters.

This package implements the covariate balancing propensity score (CBPS) proposed by Imai and Ratkovic (2014) <DOI:10.1111/rssb.12027>. The propensity score is estimated such that it maximizes the resulting covariate balance as well as the prediction of treatment assignment. The method, therefore, avoids an iteration between model fitting and balance checking. The package also implements optimal CBPS from Fan et al. (in-press) <DOI:10.1080/07350015.2021.2002159>, several extensions of the CBPS beyond the cross-sectional, binary treatment setting. They include the CBPS for longitudinal settings so that it can be used in conjunction with marginal structural models from Imai and Ratkovic (2015) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2014.956872>, treatments with three- and four-valued treatment variables, continuous-valued treatments from Fong, Hazlett, and Imai (2018) <DOI:10.1214/17-AOAS1101>, propensity score estimation with a large number of covariates from Ning, Peng, and Imai (2020) <DOI:10.1093/biomet/asaa020>, and the situation with multiple distinct binary treatments administered simultaneously. In the future it will be extended to other settings including the generalization of experimental and instrumental variable estimates.

Includes the 100 datasets simulated by Congreve and Lamsdell (2016) <doi:10.1111/pala.12236>, and analyses of the partition and quartet distance of reconstructed trees from the generative tree, as analysed by Smith (2019) <doi:10.1098/rsbl.2018.0632>.

Collective matrix factorization (CMF) finds joint low-rank representations for a collection of matrices with shared row or column entities. This code learns a variational Bayesian approximation for CMF, supporting multiple likelihood potentials and missing data, while identifying both factors shared by multiple matrices and factors private for each matrix. For further details on the method see Klami et al. (2014) <arXiv:1312.5921>. The package can also be used to learn Bayesian canonical correlation analysis (CCA) and group factor analysis (GFA) models, both of which are special cases of CMF. This is likely to be useful for people looking for CCA and GFA solutions supporting missing data and non-Gaussian likelihoods. See Klami et al. (2013) <https://research.cs.aalto.fi/pml/online-papers/klami13a.pdf> and Virtanen et al. (2012) <http://proceedings.mlr.press/v22/virtanen12.html> for details on Bayesian CCA and GFA, respectively.

Quickly and easily create codebooks (i.e. data dictionaries) directly from a data frame.

This package provides functions to analyze coarse data. Specifically, it contains functions to (1) fit parametric accelerated failure time models to interval-censored survival time data, and (2) estimate the case-fatality ratio in scenarios with under-reporting. This package's development was motivated by applications to infectious disease: in particular, problems with estimating the incubation period and the case fatality ratio of a given disease. Sample data files are included in the package. See Reich et al. (2009) <doi:10.1002/sim.3659>, Reich et al. (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2011.01709.x>, and Lessler et al. (2009) <doi:10.1016/S1473-3099(09)70069-6>.

Implements maximum-likelihood estimation with stable parameterizations of characteristic roots, model selection via AIC, residual and spectral diagnostics, forecasting and simulation, and extraction of fitted state estimates. Methods are described in Wang (2013) <doi:10.18637/jss.v053.i05>.

Data can be acquired for the entire United States or only for specific localities. Currently, support is only provided for the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, but support will be expanded for other CMS databases in future versions.

Datasets for the book entitled "Modelling Survival Data in Medical Research" by Collett (2023) <doi:10.1201/9781003282525>. The datasets provide extensive examples of time-to-event data.

This package performs Bayesian nonparametric density estimation using Martingale posterior distributions including the Copula Resampling (CopRe) algorithm. Also included are a Gibbs sampler for the marginal Gibbs-type mixture model and an extension to include full uncertainty quantification via a predictive sequence resampling (SeqRe) algorithm. The CopRe and SeqRe samplers generate random nonparametric distributions as output, leading to complete nonparametric inference on posterior summaries. Routines for calculating arbitrary functionals from the sampled distributions are included as well as an important algorithm for finding the number and location of modes, which can then be used to estimate the clusters in the data using, for example, k-means.
