This package provides a generic reference Bayesian analysis of unidimensional mixture distributions obtained by a location-scale parameterisation of the model is implemented. The including functions simulate and summarize posterior samples for location-scale mixture models using a weakly informative prior. There is no need to define priors for scale-location parameters except two hyperparameters in which are associated with a Dirichlet prior for weights and a simplex.

This package offers functions to process multiple ChIP-seq BAM files and detect allele-specific events. It computes allele counts at individual variants (SNPs/SNVs), implements extensive QC (quality control) steps to remove problematic variants, and utilizes a Bayesian framework to identify statistically significant allele-specific events. BaalChIP is able to account for copy number differences between the two alleles, a known phenotypical feature of cancer samples.

The first day of any MMWR week is Sunday. MMWR week numbering is sequential beginning with 1 and incrementing with each week to a maximum of 52 or 53. MMWR week #1 of an MMWR year is the first week of the year that has at least four days in the calendar year. This package provides functionality to convert dates to MMWR day, week, and year and the reverse.

Phylogenetic clustering (phyloclustering) is an evolutionary continuous time Markov Chain model-based approach to identify population structure from molecular data without assuming linkage equilibrium. The package phyclust provides a convenient implementation of phyloclustering for DNA and SNP data, capable of clustering individuals into subpopulations and identifying molecular sequences representative of those subpopulations. It is designed in C for performance and interfaced with R for visualization.

With appRiori <doi:10.1177/25152459241293110>, users upload the research variables and the app guides them to the best set of comparisons fitting the hypotheses, for both main and interaction effects. Through a graphical explanation and empirical examples on reproducible data, it is shown that it is possible to understand both the logic behind the planned comparisons and the way to interpret them when a model is tested.

Nonparametric data-driven approach to discovering heterogeneous subgroups in a selection-on-observables framework. aggTrees allows researchers to assess whether there exists relevant heterogeneity in treatment effects by generating a sequence of optimal groupings, one for each level of granularity. For each grouping, we obtain point estimation and inference about the group average treatment effects. Please reference the use as Di Francesco (2022) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.4304256>.

Allows the estimation and prediction for binary Gaussian process model. The mean function can be assumed to have time-series structure. The estimation methods for the unknown parameters are based on penalized quasi-likelihood/penalized quasi-partial likelihood and restricted maximum likelihood. The predicted probability and its confidence interval are computed by Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. More details can be seen in Sung et al (2017) <arXiv:1705.02511>.

Network meta-analysis and meta-regression (allows including up to three covariates) for individual participant data, aggregate data, and mixtures of both formats using the three-level hierarchical model. Each format can come from randomized controlled trials or non-randomized studies or mixtures of both. Estimates are generated in a Bayesian framework using JAGS. The implemented models are described by Hamza et al. 2023 <DOI:10.1002/jrsm.1619>.

Also contains some basic utility functions to do fast left outer join merging based on match', factorisation of data and a basic function for re-coding vectors.

Fits a state-space mass-balance model for marine ecosystems, which implements dynamics derived from Ecopath with Ecosim <https://ecopath.org/> while fitting to time-series of fishery catch, biomass indices, age-composition samples, and weight-at-age data. Package ecostate fits biological parameters (e.g., equilibrium mass) and measurement parameters (e.g., catchability coefficients) jointly with residual variation in process errors, and can include Bayesian priors for parameters.

This package provides a suite of bootstrap-based models and tools for analyzing fish stocks and aquatic populations. Designed for ecologists and fisheries scientists, it supports data from length-frequency distributions, tag-and-recapture studies, and hard structure readings (e.g., otoliths). See Schwamborn et al., 2019 <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2018.12.001> for background. The package includes functions for bootstrapped fitting of growth curves and plotting.

Read data files readable by gnumeric into R'. Can read whole sheet or a range, from several file formats, including the native format of gnumeric'. Reading is done by using ssconvert (a file converter utility included in the gnumeric distribution <http://www.gnumeric.org>) to convert the requested part to CSV. From gnumeric files (but not other formats) can list sheet names and sheet sizes or read all sheets.

This repository aims to contribute to the econometric models production with Colombian data, by providing a set of web-scrapping functions of some of the main macro-financial indicators. All the sources are public and free, but the advantage of these functions is that they directly download and harmonize the information in R's environment. No need to import or download additional files. You only need an internet connection!

This package provides functions and examples based on the m-out-of-n bootstrap suggested by Politis, D.N. and Romano, J.P. (1994) <doi:10.1214/aos/1176325770>. Additionally there are functions to estimate the scaling factor tau and the subsampling size m. For a detailed description and a full list of references, see Dalitz, C. and Lögler, F.

This package provides a suite of functions for the design of case-control and two-phase studies, and the analysis of data that arise from them.

This package provides tools for Bayesian estimation of meta-analysis models that account for publications bias or p-hacking. For publication bias, this package implements a variant of the p-value based selection model of Hedges (1992) <doi:10.1214/ss/1177011364> with discrete selection probabilities. It also implements the mixture of truncated normals model for p-hacking described in Moss and De Bin (2019) <arXiv:1911.12445>.

Color palettes taken from the landscapes and cities of Washington state. Colors were extracted from a set of photographs, and then combined to form a set of continuous and discrete palettes. Continuous palettes were designed to be perceptually uniform, while discrete palettes were chosen to maximize contrast at several different levels of overall brightness and saturation. Each palette has been evaluated to ensure colors are distinguishable by colorblind people.
