MDS is a statistic tool for reduction of dimensionality, using as input a distance matrix of dimensions n à n. When n is large, classical algorithms suffer from computational problems and MDS configuration can not be obtained. With this package, we address these problems by means of six algorithms, being two of them original proposals: - Landmark MDS proposed by De Silva V. and JB. Tenenbaum (2004). - Interpolation MDS proposed by Delicado P. and C. Pachón-Garcà a (2021) <arXiv:2007.11919> (original proposal). - Reduced MDS proposed by Paradis E (2018). - Pivot MDS proposed by Brandes U. and C. Pich (2007) - Divide-and-conquer MDS proposed by Delicado P. and C. Pachón-Garcà a (2021) <arXiv:2007.11919> (original proposal). - Fast MDS, proposed by Yang, T., J. Liu, L. McMillan and W. Wang (2006).

Skinfold measurements is one of the most popular and practical methods for estimating percent body fat. Body composition is a term that describes the relative proportions of fat, bone, and muscle mass in the human body. Following the collection of skinfold measurements, regression analysis (a statistical procedure used to predict a dependent variable based on one or more independent or predictor variables) is used to estimate total percent body fat in humans. <doi:10.4324/9780203868744>.

Generate urls and hyperlinks to commonly used biological databases and resources based on standard identifiers. This is primarily useful when writing dynamic reports that reference things like gene symbols in text or tables, allowing you to, for example, convert gene identifiers to hyperlinks pointing to their entry in the NCBI Gene database. Currently supports NCBI Gene, PubMed', Gene Ontology, KEGG', CRAN and Bioconductor.

Several implementations of non-parametric stable bootstrap-based techniques to determine the numbers of components for Partial Least Squares linear or generalized linear regression models as well as and sparse Partial Least Squares linear or generalized linear regression models. The package collects techniques that were published in a book chapter (Magnanensi et al. 2016, The Multiple Facets of Partial Least Squares and Related Methods', <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-40643-5_18>) and two articles (Magnanensi et al. 2017, Statistics and Computing', <doi:10.1007/s11222-016-9651-4>) and (Magnanensi et al. 2021, Frontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics', <doi:10.3389/fams.2021.693126>).

Includes modern base-R functions. Functions beginning with p_ are wrapper functions for existing base-R functions, supporting native piping. Other functions are wrapper functions for core base-R features, including bracket notation and dollar-sign notation. base_match() and base_when() mimic case_match() and case_when() from dplyr but return a factor by default with levels ordered according to user input. et() mimics count() from dplyr'.

This package provides a fast, lightweight, and vectorized base 64 engine to encode and decode character and raw vectors as well as files stored on disk. Common base 64 alphabets are supported out of the box including the standard, URL-safe, bcrypt, crypt, BinHex', and IMAP-modified UTF-7 alphabets. Custom engines can be created to support unique base 64 encoding and decoding needs.

Bayesian network structure learning, parameter learning and inference. This package implements constraint-based (PC, GS, IAMB, Inter-IAMB, Fast-IAMB, MMPC, Hiton-PC, HPC), pairwise (ARACNE and Chow-Liu), score-based (Hill-Climbing and Tabu Search) and hybrid (MMHC, RSMAX2, H2PC) structure learning algorithms for discrete, Gaussian and conditional Gaussian networks, along with many score functions and conditional independence tests.

Highly efficient functions for estimating various rank (centrality) measures of nodes in bipartite graphs (two-mode networks). Includes methods for estimating HITS, CoHITS, BGRM, and BiRank with implementation primarily inspired by He et al. (2016) <doi:10.1109/TKDE.2016.2611584>. Also provides easy-to-use tools for efficiently estimating PageRank in one-mode graphs, incorporating or removing edge-weights during rank estimation, projecting two-mode graphs to one-mode, and for converting edgelists and matrices to sparseMatrix format. Best of all, the package's rank estimators can work directly with common formats of network data including edgelists (class data.frame, data.table, or tbl_df) and adjacency matrices (class matrix or dgCMatrix).

Perform mediation analysis in the presence of high-dimensional mediators based on the potential outcome framework. Bayesian Mediation Analysis (BAMA), developed by Song et al (2019) <doi:10.1111/biom.13189> and Song et al (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2009.11409>, relies on two Bayesian sparse linear mixed models to simultaneously analyze a relatively large number of mediators for a continuous exposure and outcome assuming a small number of mediators are truly active. This sparsity assumption also allows the extension of univariate mediator analysis by casting the identification of active mediators as a variable selection problem and applying Bayesian methods with continuous shrinkage priors on the effects.

Set of functions to calculate Benthic Biotic Indices from composition data, obtained whether from morphotaxonomic inventories or sequencing data. Based on reference ecological weights publicly available for a set of commonly used marine biotic indices, such as AMBI (A Marine Biotic Index, Borja et al., 2000) <doi:10.1016/S0025-326X(00)00061-8> NSI (Norwegian Sensitivity Index) and ISI (Indicator Species Index) (Rygg 2013, <ISBN:978-82-577-6210-0>). It provides the ecological quality status of the samples based on each BBI as well as the normalized Ecological Quality Ratio.

This package provides a recently proposed Bayesian BIN model disentangles the underlying processes that enable forecasters and forecasting methods to improve, decomposing forecasting accuracy into three components: bias, partial information, and noise. By describing the differences between two groups of forecasters, the model allows the user to carry out useful inference, such as calculating the posterior probabilities of the treatment reducing bias, diminishing noise, or increasing information. It also provides insight into how much tamping down bias and noise in judgment or enhancing the efficient extraction of valid information from the environment improves forecasting accuracy. This package provides easy access to the BIN model. For further information refer to the paper Ville A. Satopää, Marat Salikhov, Philip E. Tetlock, and Barbara Mellers (2021) "Bias, Information, Noise: The BIN Model of Forecasting" <doi:10.1287/mnsc.2020.3882>.
