Supports propensity score-based methodsâ including matching, stratification, and weightingâ for estimating causal treatment effects. It also implements calibration using negative control outcomes to enhance robustness. debiasedTrialEmulation facilitates effect estimation for both binary and time-to-event outcomes, supporting risk ratio (RR), odds ratio (OR), and hazard ratio (HR) as effect measures. It integrates statistical modeling and visualization tools to assess covariate balance, equipoise, and bias calibration. Additional methodsâ including approaches to address immortal time bias, information bias, selection bias, and informative censoringâ are under development. Users interested in these extended features are encouraged to contact the package authors.

This package provides tools for fitting parametric mortality curves. Implements multiple optimisation strategies to enhance robustness and stability of parameter estimation. Offers tools for forecasting mortality rates guided by mortality curves. For modelling details see: Tabeau (2001) <doi:10.1007/0-306-47562-6_1>, Renshaw and Haberman (2006) <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2005.12.001>, Cairns et al. (2009) <doi:10.1080/10920277.2009.10597538>.

This package contains a function called dmur() which accepts four parameters like possible values, probabilities of the values, selling cost and preparation cost. The dmur() function generates various numeric decision parameters like MEMV (Maximum (optimum) expected monitory value), best choice, EPPI (Expected profit with perfect information), EVPI (Expected value of the perfect information), EOL (Expected opportunity loss), which facilitate effective decision-making.

The debar sequence processing pipeline is designed for denoising high throughput sequencing data for the animal DNA barcode marker cytochrome c oxidase I (COI). The package is designed to detect and correct insertion and deletion errors within sequencer outputs. This is accomplished through comparison of input sequences against a profile hidden Markov model (PHMM) using the Viterbi algorithm (for algorithm details see Durbin et al. 1998, ISBN: 9780521629713). Inserted base pairs are removed and deleted base pairs are accounted for through the introduction of a placeholder character. Since the PHMM is a probabilistic representation of the COI barcode, corrections are not always perfect. For this reason debar censors base pairs adjacent to reported indel sites, turning them into placeholder characters (default is 7 base pairs in either direction, this feature can be disabled). Testing has shown that this censorship results in the correct sequence length being restored, and erroneous base pairs being masked the vast majority of the time (>95%).

Generally, most of the packages specify the probability density function, cumulative distribution function, quantile function, and random numbers generation of the probability distributions. The present package allows to compute some important distributional properties, including the first four ordinary and central moments, Pearson's coefficient of skewness and kurtosis, the mean and variance, coefficient of variation, median, and quartile deviation at some parametric values of several well-known and extensively used probability distributions.

Non-normality could greatly distort the meta-analytic results, according to the simulation in Sun and Cheung (2020) <doi: 10.3758/s13428-019-01334-x>. This package aims to detect non-normality for two independent groups with only limited descriptive statistics, including mean, standard deviation, minimum, and maximum.

Several statistical methods for analyzing survival data under various forms of dependent censoring are implemented in the package. In addition to accounting for dependent censoring, it offers tools to adjust for unmeasured confounding factors. The implemented approaches allow users to estimate the dependency between survival time and dependent censoring time, based solely on observed survival data. For more details on the methods, refer to Deresa and Van Keilegom (2021) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asaa095>, Czado and Van Keilegom (2023) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asac067>, Crommen et al. (2024) <doi:10.1007/s11749-023-00903-9>, Deresa and Van Keilegom (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2022.2161387>, Willems et al.

This package provides a series of functions which aid in both simulating and determining the properties of finite, discrete-time, discrete state markov chains. Two functions (DTMC, MultDTMC) produce n iterations of a Markov Chain(s) based on transition probabilities and an initial distribution. The function FPTime determines the first passage time into each state. The function statdistr determines the stationary distribution of a Markov Chain.

Statistical hypothesis testing of pattern heterogeneity via differences in underlying distributions across multiple contingency tables. Five tests are included: the comparative chi-squared test (Song et al. 2014) <doi:10.1093/nar/gku086> (Zhang et al. 2015) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkv358>, the Sharma-Song test (Sharma et al. 2021) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btab240>, the heterogeneity test, the marginal-change test (Sharma et al. 2020) <doi:10.1145/3388440.3412485>, and the strength test (Sharma et al. 2020) <doi:10.1145/3388440.3412485>. Under the null hypothesis that row and column variables are statistically independent and joint distributions are equal, their test statistics all follow an asymptotically chi-squared distribution. A comprehensive type analysis categorizes the relation among the contingency tables into type null, 0, 1, and 2 (Sharma et al. 2020) <doi:10.1145/3388440.3412485>. They can identify heterogeneous patterns that differ in either the first order (marginal) or the second order (differential departure from independence). Second-order differences reveal more fundamental changes than first-order differences across heterogeneous patterns.

All datasets and functions required for the examples and exercises of the book "Data Science for Psychologists" (by Hansjoerg Neth, Konstanz University, 2026, <doi:10.5281/zenodo.7229812>), freely available at <https://hneth-ds4psy.share.connect.posit.cloud/>. The book and corresponding courses introduce principles and methods of data science to students of psychology and other biological or social sciences. The ds4psy package primarily provides datasets, but also functions for data generation and manipulation (e.g., of text and time data) and graphics that are used in the book and its exercises. All functions included in ds4psy are designed to be explicit and instructive, rather than efficient or elegant.

This package provides tools for working with a new versatile discrete distribution, the db ("discretised Beta") distribution. This package provides density (probability), distribution, inverse distribution (quantile) and random data generation functions for the db family. It provides functions to effect conveniently maximum likelihood estimation of parameters, and a variety of useful plotting functions. It provides goodness of fit tests and functions to calculate the Fisher information, different estimates of the hessian of the log likelihood and Monte Carlo estimation of the covariance matrix of the maximum likelihood parameter estimates. In addition it provides analogous tools for working with the beta-binomial distribution which has been proposed as a competitor to the db distribution.

This package provides functions for the calculation and plotting of synchrony in tree growth from tree-ring width chronologies (TRW index). It combines variance-covariance (VCOV) mixed modelling with functions that quantify the degree to which the TRW chronologies contain a common temporal signal. It also implements temporal trends in spatial synchrony using a moving window. These methods can also be used with other kind of ecological variables that have temporal autocorrelation corrected.

This is an R implementation of Fast and Scalable Learning of Sparse Changes in High-Dimensional Gaussian Graphical Model Structure (DIFFEE). The DIFFEE algorithm can be used to fast estimate the differential network between two related datasets. For instance, it can identify differential gene network from datasets of case and control. By performing data-driven network inference from two high-dimensional data sets, this tool can help users effectively translate two aggregated data blocks into knowledge of the changes among entities between two Gaussian Graphical Model.
