The confidence intervals are: Jeffreys, Wald, Wald corrected, Wald, Blyth and Still, Agresti and Coull, Wilson, Score, Score corrected, Wald logit, Wald logit corrected, Arcsine and Exact binomial.

This package provides an approach which is based on the methodology of the Burden of Communicable Diseases in Europe (BCoDE) and can be used for large and small samples such as individual countries. The Burden of Healthcare-Associated Infections (BHAI) is estimated in disability-adjusted life years, number of infections as well as number of deaths per year. Results can be visualized with various plotting functions and exported into tables.

The BioTIME database was first published in 2018 and inspired ideas, questions, project and research article. To make it even more accessible, an R package was created. The BioTIMEr package provides tools designed to interact with the BioTIME database. The functions provided include the BioTIME recommended methods for preparing (gridding and rarefaction) time series data, a selection of standard biodiversity metrics (including species richness, numerical abundance and exponential Shannon) alongside examples on how to display change over time. It also includes a sample subset of both the query and meta data, the full versions of which are freely available on the BioTIME website <https://biotime.st-andrews.ac.uk/home.php>.

Supervised learning on tabular data with blockwise missing patterns, using the Blockwise Reduced Modeling (BRM) method of Srinivasan, Currim, and Ram (2025) <doi:10.1287/ijds.2022.9016>. BRM partitions the training data into overlapping subsets based on per-row feature-missing patterns, fits one user-supplied learner per subset with minimal imputation, and at prediction time routes each test instance to the best-matching subset model. The interface is learner-agnostic: any fit-and-predict pair can be plugged in, and convenience specifications are provided for linear models, tree models, random forests, and gradient boosting.

This package provides comprehensive methods to calculate posterior probabilities, posterior predictive probabilities, and Go/NoGo/Gray decision probabilities for quantitative decision-making under a Bayesian paradigm in clinical trials. The package supports both single and two-endpoint analyses for binary and continuous outcomes, with controlled, uncontrolled, and external designs. For single continuous endpoints, three calculation methods are available: numerical integration (NI), Monte Carlo simulation (MC), and Moment-Matching approximation (MM). For two continuous endpoints, a bivariate Normal-Inverse-Wishart conjugate model is implemented with MC and MM methods. For two binary endpoints, a Dirichlet-multinomial model is implemented. External designs incorporate historical data through power priors using exact conjugate representations (Normal-Inverse-Chi-squared for single continuous, Normal-Inverse-Wishart for two continuous, and Dirichlet for binary endpoints), enabling closed-form posterior computation without Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. This approach significantly reduces computational burden while preserving complete Bayesian rigor. The package also provides grid-search functions to find optimal Go and NoGo thresholds that satisfy user-specified operating characteristic criteria for all supported endpoint types and study designs. S3 print() and plot() methods are provided for all decision probability classes, enabling formatted display and visualisation of Go/NoGo/Gray operating characteristics across treatment scenarios. See Kang, Yamaguchi, and Han (2026) <doi:10.1080/10543406.2026.2655410> for the methodological framework.

Fully Bayesian inference for estimating the number of clusters and related parameters to heterogeneous binary data.

Fits bifactor exploratory structural equation models (B-ESEM), together with standard exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), for continuous and ordinal data. Continuous models use lavaan native efa() blocks with robust maximum likelihood (MLR) estimation. Ordinal ESEM defaults to the lavaan weighted least squares mean- and variance-adjusted (WLSMV) estimator; ordinal B-ESEM uses a custom diagonally weighted least squares (DWLS) path with polychoric correlations from psych', rotation-delta standard errors via numDeriv', and a mean- and variance-adjusted chi-square. Target, geomin, and oblimin rotations use GPArotation'; the bifactor ESEM approach follows Morin, Arens and Marsh (2016) <doi:10.1080/10705511.2014.961800>. Additional features include multi-group measurement invariance (configural through strict, with partial invariance), ESEM-within-CFA conversion, McDonald's omega reliability suite, and the Mehrvarz and Rouder (2026) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/95enc_v3> alignment ratio check for independent cluster model confirmatory factor analysis (ICM-CFA) misspecification. An optional MplusAutomation interface allows side-by-side comparison with Mplus output.

This package provides a suite of Bayesian MI-LASSO for variable selection methods for multiply-imputed datasets. The package includes four Bayesian MI-LASSO models using shrinkage (Multi-Laplace, Horseshoe, ARD) and Spike-and-Slab (Spike-and-Laplace) priors, along with tools for model fitting via MCMC, four-step projection predictive variable selection, and hyperparameter calibration. Methods are suitable for both continuous and binary covariates under missing-at-random or missing-completely-at-random assumptions. See Zou, J., Wang, S. and Chen, Q. (2025), Bayesian MI-LASSO for Variable Selection on Multiply-Imputed Data. ArXiv, 2211.00114. <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2211.00114> for more details. We also provide the frequentist MI-LASSO function.

Disaggregates an observed aggregate price index into sectoral components with a Bayesian state-space model in which the aggregate enters as a genuine observation density rather than as a renormalization identity. A random-walk-with-drift transition in log space (with partial pooling on the drift and the innovation scale) and an estimable cross-sectional concentration produce posterior draws of the sectoral indices with credible intervals, suitable as multiple-imputation input for downstream dynamic models. The Hamiltonian Monte Carlo engine follows Stan (Carpenter et al., 2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v076.i01>; model comparison uses Pareto Smoothed Importance Sampling Leave-One-Out cross-validation (Vehtari, Gelman and Gabry, 2017) <doi:10.1007/s11222-016-9696-4>. A closed-form linear-Gaussian Kalman/RTS smoother provides an exact, MCMC-free Bayesian alternative for the same aggregate evidence.

It computes betas-select, coefficients after standardization in structural equation models and regression models, standardizing only selected variables.
