This package provides methods to extract information on pathways, genes and various single-nucleotid polymorphisms (SNPs) from online databases. It provides functions for data preparation and evaluation of genetic influence on a binary outcome using the logistic kernel machine test (LKMT). Three different kernel functions are offered to analyze genotype information in this variance component test: A linear kernel, a size-adjusted kernel and a network-based kernel).
Nonparametric kernel distribution function estimation is performed. Three bandwidth selectors are implemented: the plug-in selectors of Altman and Leger and of Polansky and Baker, and the cross-validation selector of Bowman, Hall and Prvan. The exceedance function, the mean return period and the return level are also computed. For details, see Quintela-del-Rà o and Estévez-Pérez (2012) <doi:10.18637/jss.v050.i08>.
This package provides a higher-level interface to the torch package for defining, training, and fine-tuning neural networks through code generation. The package supports several architectures, including feedforward (multi-layer perceptron) and recurrent neural networks (RNN, LSTM, GRU), while reducing boilerplate torch code. Model training methods also bridge to machine learning frameworks in R, particularly the tidymodels ecosystem, including parsnip model specifications, workflows, recipes, and tuning tools.
This package performs meta-analysis and meta-regression using standard and robust methods with confidence intervals based on the profile likelihood. Robust methods are based on alternative distributions for the random effect, either the t-distribution (Lee and Thompson, 2008 <doi:10.1002/sim.2897> or Baker and Jackson, 2008 <doi:10.1007/s10729-007-9041-8>) or mixtures of normals (Beath, 2014 <doi:10.1002/jrsm.1114>).
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. (2025) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2025-031>.
Various tools developed as part of the Open-CESP (Centre de recherche en Epidémiologie et Santé des Populations) initiative to generate and evaluate synthetic datasets for statistical disclosure control. This includes tools to investigate the risk-utility tradeoff achievable with given synthesis methods, as well as statistical tools to estimate (conditional) probability distributions. The main eventual aim is to help researchers and statisticians disseminate open research data.
Function pip3d() tests whether a point in 3D space is within, exactly on, or outside an enclosed surface defined by a triangular mesh. Function pip2d() tests whether a point in 2D space is within, exactly on, or outside a polygon. For a reference, see: Liu et al., A new point containment test algorithm based on preprocessing and determining triangles, Computer-Aided Design 42(12):1143-1150.
The goal of safejoin is to guarantee that when performing joins extra rows are not added to your data. safejoin provides a wrapper around dplyr::left_join that will raise an error when extra rows are unexpectedly added to your data. This can be useful when working with data where you expect there to be a many to one relationship but you are not certain the relationship holds.
Species sensitivity distributions are cumulative probability distributions which are fitted to toxicity concentrations for different species as described by Posthuma et al. (2001) <isbn:9781566705783>. The ssdtools package uses Maximum Likelihood to fit distributions such as the gamma, log-logistic, log-normal and log-normal log-normal mixture. Multiple distributions can be averaged using Akaike Information Criteria. Confidence intervals on hazard concentrations and proportions are produced by bootstrapping.
This package provides functions to estimate a strategic selection estimator. A strategic selection estimator is an agent error model in which the two random components are not assumed to be orthogonal. In addition this package provides generic functions to print and plot objects of its class as well as the necessary functions to create tables for LaTeX. There is also a function to create dyadic data sets.
This package provides a novel feature-wise normalization method based on a zero-inflated negative binomial model. This method assumes that the effects of sequencing depth vary for each taxon on their mean and also incorporates a rational link of zero probability and taxon dispersion as a function of sequencing depth.

This package performs maximum likelihood based estimation and inference on time to event data, possibly subject to non-informative right censoring. FitParaSurv() provides maximum likelihood estimates of model parameters and distributional characteristics, including the mean, median, variance, and restricted mean. CompParaSurv() compares the mean, median, and restricted mean survival experiences of two treatment groups. Candidate distributions include the exponential, gamma, generalized gamma, log-normal, and Weibull.
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 provides workflows to prepare weather and climate time series from gridded and station data for SWAT ('Soil and Water Assessment Tool'). Supports data extraction, aggregation, interpolation, quality control, unit conversion, and export of per-location model input files. For the underlying model, see Arnold et al. (1998) "Large Area Hydrologic Modeling and Assessment Part I: Model Development" <doi:10.1111/j.1752-1688.1998.tb05961.x>.
Provide functions for performing abundance and compositional based binning on metagenomic samples, directly from FASTA or FASTQ files. Functions are implemented in Java and called via rJava. Parallel implementation that operates directly on input FASTA/FASTQ files for fast execution. Inputs may be file paths or Biostrings/ShortRead sequence objects; results are returned as a MetabinResult S4 object wrapping cluster assignments, algorithm parameters, and input metadata.
MsImpute is a package for imputation of peptide intensity in proteomics experiments. It additionally contains tools for MAR/MNAR diagnosis and assessment of distortions to the probability distribution of the data post imputation. The missing values are imputed by low-rank approximation of the underlying data matrix if they are MAR (method = "v2"), by Barycenter approach if missingness is MNAR ("v2-mnar"), or by Peptide Identity Propagation (PIP).
This package provides next-generation sequencing (NGS) and mass spectrometry (MS) sample data, code snippets and replication material used for developing NestLink. The NestLink approach is a protein binder selection and identification technology able to biophysically characterize thousands of library members at once without handling individual clones at any stage of the process. Data were acquired on NGS and MS platforms at the Functional Genomics Center Zurich.
srnadiff is a package that finds differently expressed regions from RNA-seq data at base-resolution level without relying on existing annotation. To do so, the package implements the identify-then-annotate methodology that builds on the idea of combining two pipelines approachs differential expressed regions detection and differential expression quantification. It reads BAM files as input, and outputs a list differentially regions, together with the adjusted p-values.

For the underlying standards see <https://www.ogc.org/standards/wfs/> and <https://www.ogc.org/standards/wms/>.
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>.
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.
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>.
This package provides some simple functions for printing text in color in markdown or Quarto documents, to be rendered as HTML or LaTeX. This is useful when writing about the use of colors in graphs or tables, where you want to print their names in their actual color to give a direct impression of the color, like â redâ shown in red, or â blueâ shown in blue.
