Uses non-linear regression to statistically compare two circadian rhythms. Groups are only compared if both are rhythmic (amplitude is non-zero). Performs analyses regarding mesor, phase, and amplitude, reporting on estimates and statistical differences, for each, between groups. Details can be found in Parsons et al (2020) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz730>.

This package provides a Bayesian approach to using predictive probability in an ANOVA construct with a continuous normal response, when threshold values must be obtained for the question of interest to be evaluated as successful (Sieck and Christensen (2021) <doi:10.1002/qre.2802>). The Bayesian Mission Mean (BMM) is used to evaluate a question of interest (that is, a mean that randomly selects combination of factor levels based on their probability of occurring instead of averaging over the factor levels, as in the grand mean). Under this construct, in contrast to a Gibbs sampler (or Metropolis-within-Gibbs sampler), a two-stage sampling method is required. The nested sampler determines the conditional posterior distribution of the model parameters, given Y, and the outside sampler determines the marginal posterior distribution of Y (also commonly called the predictive distribution for Y). This approach provides a sample from the joint posterior distribution of Y and the model parameters, while also accounting for the threshold value that must be obtained in order for the question of interest to be evaluated as successful.

This package provides a collection of functions for top-down exploratory data analysis of spectral data including nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared (IR), Raman, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and other similar types of spectroscopy. Includes functions for plotting and inspecting spectra, peak alignment, hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), principal components analysis (PCA) and model-based clustering. Robust methods appropriate for this type of high-dimensional data are available. ChemoSpec is designed for structured experiments, such as metabolomics investigations, where the samples fall into treatment and control groups. Graphical output is formatted consistently for publication quality plots. ChemoSpec is intended to be very user friendly and to help you get usable results quickly. A vignette covering typical operations is available.

Computes confidence intervals for the positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) based on varied scenarios. In situations where the proportion of diseased subjects does not correspond to the disease prevalence (e.g. case-control studies), this package provides two types of solutions: 1) five methods for estimating confidence intervals for PPV and NPV via ratio of two binomial proportions including Gart & Nam (1988), Walter (1975), MOVER-J (Laud, 2017), Fieller (1954), and Bootstrap (Efron, 1979); 2) three direct methods that compute the confidence intervals including Pepe (2003), Zhou (2007), and Delta. In prospective studies where the proportion of diseased subjects is an unbiased estimate of the disease prevalence, this package provides several methods for calculating the confidence intervals for PPV and NPV including Clopper-Pearson, Wald, Wilson, Agresti-Coull, and Beta. See the Details and References sections in the corresponding functions.

(2009) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2008.11.022> and, more recently, Lambert, P. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2021.107250>. It is inspired by the algorithm developed by de Boor, C. (1977) <doi:10.1137/0714026>.

Bindings to Google's C++ library Compact Language Detector 2 (see <https://github.com/cld2owners/cld2#readme> for more information). Probabilistically detects over 80 languages in plain text or HTML. For mixed-language input it returns the top three detected languages and their approximate proportion of the total classified text bytes (e.g. 80% English and 20% French out of 1000 bytes). There is also a cld3 package on CRAN which uses a neural network model instead.

Predicts categorical or continuous outcomes while concentrating on a number of key points. These are Cross-validation, Accuracy, Regression and Rule of Ten or "one in ten rule" (CARRoT), and, in addition to it R-squared statistics, prior knowledge on the dataset etc. It performs the cross-validation specified number of times by partitioning the input into training and test set and fitting linear/multinomial/binary regression models to the training set. All regression models satisfying chosen constraints are fitted and the ones with the best predictive power are given as an output. Best predictive power is understood as highest accuracy in case of binary/multinomial outcomes, smallest absolute and relative errors in case of continuous outcomes. For binary case there is also an option of finding a regression model which gives the highest AUROC (Area Under Receiver Operating Curve) value. The option of parallel toolbox is also available. Methods are described in Peduzzi et al. (1996) <doi:10.1016/S0895-4356(96)00236-3> , Rhemtulla et al. (2012) <doi:10.1037/a0029315>, Riley et al. (2018) <doi:10.1002/sim.7993>, Riley et al.

Tree-based classification and soft-clustering method for preference rankings, with tools for external validation of fuzzy clustering, and Kemeny-equivalent augmented unfolding. It contains the recursive partitioning algorithm for preference rankings, non-parametric tree-based method for a matrix of preference rankings as a response variable. It contains also the distribution-free soft clustering method for preference rankings, namely the K-median cluster component analysis (CCA). The package depends on the ConsRank R package. Options for validate the tree-based method are both test-set procedure and V-fold cross validation. The package contains the routines to compute the adjusted concordance index (a fuzzy version of the adjusted rand index) and the normalized degree of concordance (the corresponding fuzzy version of the rand index). The package also contains routines to perform the Kemeny-equivalent augmented unfolding. The mds endine is the function sacofSym from the package smacof'.

This package provides a class of methods that combine dimension reduction and clustering of continuous, categorical or mixed-type data (Markos, Iodice D'Enza and van de Velden 2019; <DOI:10.18637/jss.v091.i10>). For continuous data, the package contains implementations of factorial K-means (Vichi and Kiers 2001; <DOI:10.1016/S0167-9473(00)00064-5>) and reduced K-means (De Soete and Carroll 1994; <DOI:10.1007/978-3-642-51175-2_24>); both methods that combine principal component analysis with K-means clustering. For categorical data, the package provides MCA K-means (Hwang, Dillon and Takane 2006; <DOI:10.1007/s11336-004-1173-x>), i-FCB (Iodice D'Enza and Palumbo 2013, <DOI:10.1007/s00180-012-0329-x>) and Cluster Correspondence Analysis (van de Velden, Iodice D'Enza and Palumbo 2017; <DOI:10.1007/s11336-016-9514-0>), which combine multiple correspondence analysis with K-means. For mixed-type data, it provides mixed Reduced K-means and mixed Factorial K-means (van de Velden, Iodice D'Enza and Markos 2019; <DOI:10.1002/wics.1456>), which combine PCA for mixed-type data with K-means.

Analyzing responses to check-all-that-apply survey items often requires data transformations and subjective decisions for combining categories. CATAcode contains tools for exploring response patterns, facilitating data transformations, applying a set of decision rules for coding responses, and summarizing response frequencies.

Given the hypothesis of a bi-modal distribution of cells for each marker, the algorithm constructs a binary tree, the nodes of which are subpopulations of cells. At each node, observed cells and markers are modeled by both a family of normal distributions and a family of bi-modal normal mixture distributions. Splitting is done according to a normalized difference of AIC between the two families. Method is detailed in: Commenges, Alkhassim, Gottardo, Hejblum & Thiebaut (2018) <doi: 10.1002/cyto.a.23601>.
