An implementation of functions to generate and plot postestimation quantities after estimating Bayesian regression models using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Functionality includes the estimation of the Precision-Recall curves (see Beger, 2016 <doi:10.2139/ssrn.2765419>), the implementation of the observed values method of calculating predicted probabilities by Hanmer and Kalkan (2013) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-5907.2012.00602.x>, the implementation of the average value method of calculating predicted probabilities (see King, Tomz, and Wittenberg, 2000 <doi:10.2307/2669316>), and the generation and plotting of first differences to summarize typical effects across covariates (see Long 1997, ISBN:9780803973749; King, Tomz, and Wittenberg, 2000 <doi:10.2307/2669316>). This package can be used with MCMC output generated by any Bayesian estimation tool including JAGS', BUGS', MCMCpack', and Stan'.

This package implements Bayesian brain mapping with population-derived priors, including the original model described in Mejia et al. (2020) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2019.1679638>, the model with spatial priors described in Mejia et al. (2022) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2022.2104289>, and the model with population-derived priors on functional connectivity described in Mejia et al. (2025) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxaf022>. Population-derived priors are based on templates representing established brain network maps, for example derived from independent component analysis (ICA), parcellations, or other methods. Model estimation is based on expectation-maximization or variational Bayes algorithms. Includes direct support for CIFTI', GIFTI', and NIFTI neuroimaging file formats.

Fit Bayesian multivariate GARCH models using Stan for full Bayesian inference. Generate (weighted) forecasts for means, variances (volatility) and correlations. Currently DCC(P,Q), CCC(P,Q), pdBEKK(P,Q), and BEKK(P,Q) parameterizations are implemented, alongside a constant covariance baseline (that can be used for testing whether GARCH is warranted), based either on a multivariate gaussian normal or student-t distribution. DCC and CCC models are based on Engle (2002) <doi:10.1198/073500102288618487> and Bollerslev (1990). The BEKK parameterization follows Engle and Kroner (1995) <doi:10.1017/S0266466600009063> while the pdBEKK as well as the estimation approach for this package is described in Rast et al. (2020) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/j57pk>. The fitted models contain rstan objects and can be examined with rstan functions.

Carries out Bland Altman analyses (also known as a Tukey mean-difference plot) as described by JM Bland and DG Altman in 1986 <doi:10.1016/S0140-6736(86)90837-8>. This package was created in 2015 as existing Bland-Altman analysis functions did not calculate confidence intervals. This package was created to rectify this, and create reproducible plots. This package is also available as a module for the jamovi statistical spreadsheet (see <https://www.jamovi.org> for more information).

The Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design is a novel phase I clinical trial design for finding the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). It can be used to design both single-agent and drug-combination trials. The BOIN design is motivated by the top priority and concern of clinicians when testing a new drug, which is to effectively treat patients and minimize the chance of exposing them to subtherapeutic or overly toxic doses. The prominent advantage of the BOIN design is that it achieves simplicity and superior performance at the same time. The BOIN design is algorithm-based and can be implemented in a simple way similar to the traditional 3+3 design. The BOIN design yields an average performance that is comparable to that of the continual reassessment method (CRM, one of the best model-based designs) in terms of selecting the MTD, but has a substantially lower risk of assigning patients to subtherapeutic or overly toxic doses. For tutorial, please check Yan et al. (2020) <doi:10.18637/jss.v094.i13>.

Whitening is the first step of almost all blind source separation (BSS) methods. A fast implementation of whitening for BSS is implemented to serve as a lightweight dependency for packages providing BSS methods.

Constructs treatment and block designs for linear treatment models with crossed or nested block factors. The treatment design can be any feasible linear model and the block design can be any feasible combination of crossed or nested block factors. The block design is a sum of one or more block factors and the block design is optimized sequentially with the levels of each successive block factor optimized conditional on all previously optimized block factors. D-optimality is used throughout except for square or rectangular lattice block designs which are constructed algebraically using mutually orthogonal Latin squares. Crossed block designs with interaction effects are optimized using a weighting scheme which allows for differential weighting of first and second-order block effects. Outputs include a table showing the allocation of treatments to blocks and tables showing the achieved D-efficiency factors for each block and treatment design. Edmondson, R.N.

Calculates the necessary quantities to perform Bayesian multigroup equivalence testing. Currently the package includes the Bayesian models and equivalence criteria outlined in Pourmohamad and Lee (2023) <doi:10.1002/sta4.645>, but more models and equivalence testing features may be added over time.

This package provides functions for blind source separation over multivariate spatial data, and useful statistics for evaluating performance of estimation on mixing matrix. BSSoverSpace is based on an eigen analysis of a positive definite matrix defined in terms of multiple normalized spatial local covariance matrices, and thus can handle moderately high-dimensional random fields. This package is an implementation of the method described in Zhang, Hao and Yao (2022)<arXiv:2201.02023>.

An interface for the Neo4j database providing mapping between different identifiers of biological entities. This Biological Entity Dictionary (BED) has been developed to address three main challenges. The first one is related to the completeness of identifier mappings. Indeed, direct mapping information provided by the different systems are not always complete and can be enriched by mappings provided by other resources. More interestingly, direct mappings not identified by any of these resources can be indirectly inferred by using mappings to a third reference. For example, many human Ensembl gene ID are not directly mapped to any Entrez gene ID but such mappings can be inferred using respective mappings to HGNC ID. The second challenge is related to the mapping of deprecated identifiers. Indeed, entity identifiers can change from one resource release to another. The identifier history is provided by some resources, such as Ensembl or the NCBI, but it is generally not used by mapping tools. The third challenge is related to the automation of the mapping process according to the relationships between the biological entities of interest. Indeed, mapping between gene and protein ID scopes should not be done the same way than between two scopes regarding gene ID. Also, converting identifiers from different organisms should be possible using gene orthologs information. The method has been published by Godard and van Eyll (2018) <doi:10.12688/f1000research.13925.3>.

Bayesian analysis of multivariate receptor modeling. The package consists of implementations of the methods of Park and Oh (2015) <doi:10.1016/j.chemolab.2015.08.021>.The package uses JAGS'(Just Another Gibbs Sampler) to generate Markov chain Monte Carlo samples of parameters.

The purpose of this package is to fit the three Spatial Econometric Models proposed in Anselin (1988, ISBN:9024737354) in the homoscedastic and the heteroscedatic case. The fit is made through MCMC algorithms and observational working variables approach.

We perform linear, logistic, and cox regression using the base functions lm(), glm(), and coxph() in the R software and the survival package. Likewise, we can use ols(), lrm() and cph() from the rms package for the same functionality. Each of these two sets of commands has a different focus. In many cases, we need to use both sets of commands in the same situation, e.g. we need to filter the full subset model using AIC, and we need to build a visualization graph for the final model. base.rms package can help you to switch between the two sets of commands easily.

Provide early termination phase II trial designs with a decreasingly informative prior (DIP) or a regular Bayesian prior chosen by the user. The program can determine the minimum planned sample size necessary to achieve the user-specified admissible designs. The program can also perform power and expected sample size calculations for the tests in early termination Phase II trials.
