This package contains all of the functions necessary for the complete analysis of a continuous glucose monitoring study and can be applied to data measured by various existing CGM devices such as FreeStyle Libre', Glutalor', Dexcom and Medtronic CGM'. It reads a series of data files, is able to convert various formats of time stamps, can deal with missing values, calculates both regular statistics and nonlinear statistics, and conducts group comparison. It also displays results in a concise format. Also contains two unique features new to CGM analysis: one is the implementation of strictly standard mean difference and the class of effect size; the other is the development of a new type of plot called antenna plot. It corresponds to Zhang XD'(2018)<doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btx826>'s article CGManalyzer: an R package for analyzing continuous glucose monitoring studies'.

Test for cluster tendency (clusterability) of a data set. The methods implemented - reducing the data set to a single dimension using principal component analysis or computing pairwise distances, and performing a multimodality test like the Dip Test or Silverman's Critical Bandwidth Test - are described in Adolfsson, Ackerman, and Brownstein (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.patcog.2018.10.026> and Laborde et al. (2023) <doi: 10.1186/s12859-023-05210-6>. Such methods can inform whether clustering algorithms are appropriate for a data set.

This model fitting tool incorporates cyclic coordinate descent and majorization-minimization approaches to fit a variety of regression models found in large-scale observational healthcare data. Implementations focus on computational optimization and fine-scale parallelization to yield efficient inference in massive datasets. Please see: Suchard, Simpson, Zorych, Ryan and Madigan (2013) <doi:10.1145/2414416.2414791>.

The CalMaTe method calibrates preprocessed allele-specific copy number estimates (ASCNs) from DNA microarrays by controlling for single-nucleotide polymorphism-specific allelic crosstalk. The resulting ASCNs are on average more accurate, which increases the power of segmentation methods for detecting changes between copy number states in tumor studies including copy neutral loss of heterozygosity. CalMaTe applies to any ASCNs regardless of preprocessing method and microarray technology, e.g. Affymetrix and Illumina.

This package provides a toolbox for developing applications, games, simulations, or agent-based models in the R terminal. Included functions allow users to move the cursor around the terminal screen, change text colors and attributes, clear the screen, hide and show the cursor, map key presses to functions, draw shapes and curves, among others. Most functionalities require users to be in a terminal (not the R GUI).

This package provides tools for the analysis, visualization, and manipulation of dynamical, social (Saqr et al. (2024) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-54464-4_10>) and complex networks (Saqr et al. (2025) <doi:10.1145/3706468.3706513>). The package supports multiple network formats and offers flexible tools for heterogeneous, multi-layer, and hierarchical network analysis with simple syntax and extensive toolset.

Color values in R are often represented as strings of hexadecimal colors or named colors. This package offers fast conversion of these color representations to either an array of red/green/blue/alpha values or to the packed integer format used in native raster objects. Functions for conversion are also exported at the C level for use in other packages. This fast conversion of colors is implemented using an order-preserving minimal perfect hash derived from Majewski et al (1996) "A Family of Perfect Hashing Methods" <doi:10.1093/comjnl/39.6.547>.

Uses inverse probability weighting methods to estimate treatment effect under marginal structure model for the cause-specific hazard of competing risk events. Estimates also the cumulative incidence function (i.e. risk) of the potential outcomes, and provides inference on risk difference and risk ratio. Reference: Kalbfleisch & Prentice (2002)<doi:10.1002/9781118032985>; Hernan et al (2001)<doi:10.1198/016214501753168154>.

Create correlation heatmaps from a numeric matrix. Ensembl Gene ID row names can be converted to Gene Symbols using, e.g., BioMart. Optionally, data can be clustered and filtered by correlation, tree cutting and/or number of missing values. Genes of interest can be highlighted in the plot and correlation significance be indicated by asterisks encoding corresponding P-Values. Plot dimensions and label measures are adjusted automatically by default. The plot features rely on the heatmap.n2() function in the heatmapFlex package.

Data from statistical agencies and other institutions often need to be protected before they can be published. This package can be used to perturb statistical tables in a consistent way. The main idea is to add - at the micro data level - a record key for each unit. Based on these keys, for any cell in a statistical table a cell key is computed as a function on the record keys contributing to a specific cell. Values that are added to the cell in order to perturb it are derived from a lookup-table that maps values of cell keys to specific perturbation values. The theoretical basis for the methods implemented can be found in Thompson, Broadfoot and Elazar (2013) <https://unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/stats/documents/ece/ces/ge.46/2013/Topic_1_ABS.pdf> which was extended and enhanced by Giessing and Tent (2019) <https://unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/stats/documents/ece/ces/ge.46/2019/mtg1/SDC2019_S2_Germany_Giessing_Tent_AD.pdf>.

Constrained quantile regression is performed. One constraint is that all beta coefficients (including the constant) cannot be negative, they can be either 0 or strictly positive. Another constraint is that the beta coefficients lie within an interval. References: Koenker R. (2005) Quantile Regression, Cambridge University Press. <doi:10.1017/CBO9780511754098>.

This package provides a database of Chinese surnames and given names (1930-2008).

Compile inline C code and easily call with automatically generated wrapper functions. By allowing user-defined headers and compilation flags (preprocessor, compiler and linking flags) the user can configure optimization options and linking to third party libraries. Multiple functions may be defined in a single block of code - which may be defined in a string or a path to a source file.

Perform the functional modeling methods of Huang and Wang (2018) <doi:10.1111/biom.12741> to accommodate dependent error in covariates of the proportional hazards model. The adopted measurement error model has minimal assumptions on the dependence structure, and an instrumental variable is supposed to be available.

The reliability of assessment tools is a crucial aspect of monitoring student performance in various educational settings. It ensures that the assessment outcomes accurately reflect a student's true level of performance. However, when assessments are combined, determining composite reliability can be challenging, especially for naturalistic and unbalanced datasets in nested design as is often the case for Workplace-Based Assessments. This package is designed to estimate composite reliability in nested designs using multivariate generalizability theory and enhance the analysis of assessment data. The package allows for the inclusion of weight per assessment type and produces extensive G- and D-study results with graphical interpretations, and options to find the set of weights that maximizes the composite reliability or minimizes the standard error of measurement (SEM).
