Calculates the prices of European options based on the universal solution provided by Bakshi, Cao and Chen (1997) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-6261.1997.tb02749.x>. This solution considers stochastic volatility, stochastic interest and random jumps. Please cite their work if this package is used.

This package provides a set of tools for performing graph theory analysis of brain MRI data. It works with data from a Freesurfer analysis (cortical thickness, volumes, local gyrification index, surface area), diffusion tensor tractography data (e.g., from FSL) and resting-state fMRI data (e.g., from DPABI). It contains a graphical user interface for graph visualization and data exploration, along with several functions for generating useful figures.

Simulation and parameter estimation of multitype Bienayme - Galton - Watson processes.

Generation of samples from a mix of binary, ordinal and continuous random variables with a pre-specified correlation matrix and marginal distributions. The details of the method are explained in Demirtas et al. (2012) <DOI:10.1002/sim.5362>.

Implementation of the Generalized Pairwise Comparisons (GPC) as defined in Buyse (2010) <doi:10.1002/sim.3923> for complete observations, and extended in Peron (2018) <doi:10.1177/0962280216658320> to deal with right-censoring. GPC compare two groups of observations (intervention vs. control group) regarding several prioritized endpoints to estimate the probability that a random observation drawn from one group performs better/worse/equivalently than a random observation drawn from the other group. Summary statistics such as the net treatment benefit, win ratio, or win odds are then deduced from these probabilities. Confidence intervals and p-values are obtained based on asymptotic results (Ozenne 2021 <doi:10.1177/09622802211037067>), non-parametric bootstrap, or permutations. The software enables the use of thresholds of minimal importance difference, stratification, non-prioritized endpoints (O Brien test), and can handle right-censoring and competing-risks.

Plotting package based on the grid system, combining elements of a bubble plot and heatmap to conveniently display two numerical variables, (represented by color and size) grouped by categorical variables on the x and y axes. This is a useful alternative to a forest plot when the data can be grouped in two dimensions, such as predictors x outcomes. It has particular advantages for visualising the metabolic measures produced by the Nightingale Health metabolomics platform, and templates are included for automatically generating figures from these datasets.

Moreover, the package includes code for estimating several technical efficiency measures using different models such as the input and output-oriented radial measures, the input and output-oriented Russell measures, the Directional Distance Function (DDF), the Weighted Additive Measure (WAM) and the Slacks-Based Measure (SBM).

Single linkage clustering and connected component analyses are often performed on biological images. Bioi provides a set of functions for performing these tasks. This functionality is implemented in several key functions that can extend to from 1 to many dimensions. The single linkage clustering method implemented here can be used on n-dimensional data sets, while connected component analyses are limited to 3 or fewer dimensions.

The BioTIME database was first published in 2018 and inspired ideas, questions, project and research article. To make it even more accessible, an R package was created. The BioTIMEr package provides tools designed to interact with the BioTIME database. The functions provided include the BioTIME recommended methods for preparing (gridding and rarefaction) time series data, a selection of standard biodiversity metrics (including species richness, numerical abundance and exponential Shannon) alongside examples on how to display change over time. It also includes a sample subset of both the query and meta data, the full versions of which are freely available on the BioTIME website <https://biotime.st-andrews.ac.uk/home.php>.

Under- and over-dispersed binary data are modeled using an extended Poisson process model (EPPM) appropriate for binary data. A feature of the model is that the under-dispersion relative to the binomial distribution only needs to be greater than zero, but the over-dispersion is restricted compared to other distributional models such as the beta and correlated binomials. Because of this, the examples focus on under-dispersed data and how, in combination with the beta or correlated distributions, flexible models can be fitted to data displaying both under- and over-dispersion. Using Generalized Linear Model (GLM) terminology, the functions utilize linear predictors for the probability of success and scale-factor with various link functions for p, and log link for scale-factor, to fit a variety of models relevant to areas such as bioassay. Details of the EPPM are in Faddy and Smith (2012) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201100214> and Smith and Faddy (2019) <doi:10.18637/jss.v090.i08>.

This package implements fast, exact bootstrap Principal Component Analysis and Singular Value Decompositions for high dimensional data, as described in <doi:10.1080/01621459.2015.1062383> (see also <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1405.0922>). For data matrices that are too large to operate on in memory, users can input objects with class ff (see the ff package), where the actual data is stored on disk. In response, this package will implement a block matrix algebra procedure for calculating the principal components (PCs) and bootstrap PCs. Depending on options set by the user, the parallel package can be used to parallelize the calculation of the bootstrap PCs.

This package provides methods for mediation analysis with missing data and non-normal data are implemented. For missing data, four methods are available: Listwise deletion, Pairwise deletion, Multiple imputation, and Two Stage Maximum Likelihood algorithm. For MI and TS-ML, auxiliary variables can be included to handle missing data. For handling non-normal data, bootstrap and two-stage robust methods can be used. Technical details of the methods can be found in Zhang and Wang (2013, <doi:10.1007/s11336-012-9301-5>), Zhang (2014, <doi:10.3758/s13428-013-0424-0>), and Yuan and Zhang (2012, <doi:10.1007/s11336-012-9282-4>).

Implementation of algorithms for cutting numerical values exhibiting a potentially highly skewed distribution into evenly distributed groups (bins). This functionality can be applied for binning discrete values, such as counts, as well as for discretization of continuous values, for example, during generation of features used in machine learning algorithms.

Verification of continually updating time series data where we expect new values, but want to ensure previous data remains unchanged. Data previously recorded could change for a number of reasons, such as discovery of an error in model code, a change in methodology or instrument recalibration. Monitoring data sources for these changes is not always possible. Other unnoticed changes could include a jump in time or measurement frequency, due to instrument failure or software updates. Functionality is provided that can be used to check and flag changes to previous data to prevent changes going unnoticed, as well as unexpected jumps in time.
