Can be useful for finding associations among different positions in a position-wise aligned sequence dataset. The approach adopted for finding associations among positions is based on the latent multivariate normal distribution.

Software which provides numerous functionalities for detecting and removing group-level effects from high-dimensional scientific data which, when combined with additional assumptions, allow for causal conclusions, as-described in our manuscripts Bridgeford et al. (2024) <doi:10.1101/2021.09.03.458920> and Bridgeford et al. (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2307.13868>. Also provides a number of useful utilities for generating simulations and balancing covariates across multiple groups/batches of data via matching and propensity trimming for more than two groups.

This package performs forward and backward stepwise regression for the proportional subdistribution hazards model in competing risks (Fine & Gray 1999). Procedure uses AIC, BIC and BICcr as selection criteria. BICcr has a penalty of k = log(n*), where n* is the number of primary events. This version includes improved handling of factors, interactions, and polynomial terms.

This package provides a set of functions to manage CRAN'-like repositories efficiently.

This package provides a set of functions to conduct Conjunctive Analysis of Case Configurations (CACC) as described in Miethe, Hart, and Regoeczi (2008) <doi:10.1007/s10940-008-9044-8>, and identify and quantify situational clustering in dominant case configurations as described in Hart (2019) <doi:10.1177/0011128719866123>. Initially conceived as an exploratory technique for multivariate analysis of categorical data, CACC has developed to include formal statistical tests that can be applied in a wide variety of contexts. This technique allows examining composite profiles of different units of analysis in an alternative way to variable-oriented methods.

(1998) <doi:10.1080/01638539809545028>; Lexical similarity: Jaccard (1912) <doi:10.1111/j.1469-8137.1912.tb05611.x>; Semantic similarity: Salton & Buckley (1988) <doi:10.1016/0306-4573(88)90021-0>; Mikolov et al. (2013) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1301.3781>; Pennington et al. (2014) <doi:10.3115/v1/D14-1162>; Structural and stylistic analysis: Graesser et al. (2004) <doi:10.1075/target.21131.ryu>; Sentiment analysis: Rinker (2019) <https://github.com/trinker/sentimentr>.

Calculates and visualises cumulative percent decay curves, which are typically calculated from metagenomic taxonomic profiles. These can be used to estimate the level of expected endogenous taxa at different abundance levels retrieved from metagenomic samples, when comparing to samples of known sampling site or source. Method described in Fellows Yates, J. A. et. al. (2021) Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences USA <doi:10.1073/pnas.2021655118>.

Helpful functions for the cleaning and manipulation of surveillance data, especially with regards to the creation and validation of panel data from individual level surveillance data.

Set of functions to import COVID-19 pandemic data into R. The Brazilian COVID-19 data, obtained from the official Brazilian repository at <https://covid.saude.gov.br/>, is available at the country, region, state, and city levels. The package also downloads world-level COVID-19 data from Johns Hopkins University's repository. COVID-19 data is available from the start of follow-up until to May 5, 2023, when the World Health Organization (WHO) declared an end to the Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) for COVID-19.

This package provides a new methodology for linear regression with both curve response and curve regressors, which is described in Cho, Goude, Brossat and Yao (2013) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2012.722900> and (2015) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-18732-7_3>. The key idea behind this methodology is dimension reduction based on a singular value decomposition in a Hilbert space, which reduces the curve regression problem to several scalar linear regression problems.

This package provides means of plots for comparing utilization data of compute systems.

This package provides a tool for easily matching spatial data when you have a list of place/region names. You might have a data frame that came from a spreadsheet tracking some data by suburb or state. This package can convert it into a spatial data frame ready for plotting. The actual map data is provided by other packages (or your own code).

Offers a set of objects tailored to simplify working with choice data. It enables the computation of choice probabilities and the likelihood of various types of choice models based on given data.

Identify the most relative data points by dividing a numeric data set into three classes A, B, and C, where class A items are the "import few", class C items are the "trivial many" with class B items being something in between, resembling the idea of the Pareto principle. This ABC classification is done using an ABC curve, which plots cumulative "Yield" against "Effort", similar to a Lorenz curve. Class borders are then precisely mathematically defined on that curve, aiding in interpretation. Based on: Ultsch A, Lotsch J (2015) "Computed ABC Analysis for rational Selection of most informative Variables in multivariate Data". PLoS ONE 10(6): e0129767. <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0129767>.

This package provides functions for loading large (10M+ lines) CSV and other delimited files, similar to read.csv, but typically faster and using less memory than the standard R loader. While not entirely general, it covers many common use cases when the types of columns in the CSV file are known in advance. In addition, the package provides a class int64', which represents 64-bit integers exactly when reading from a file. The latter is useful when working with 64-bit integer identifiers exported from databases. The CSV file loader supports common column types including integer', double', string', and int64', leaving further type transformations to the user.

Connectome Predictive Modelling (CPM) (Shen et al. (2017) <doi:10.1038/nprot.2016.178>) is a method to predict individual differences in behaviour from brain functional connectivity. cpmr provides a simple yet efficient implementation of this method.

Convex Partition is a black-box optimisation algorithm for single objective real-parameters functions. The basic principle is to progressively estimate and exploit a regression tree similar to a CART (Classification and Regression Tree) of the objective function. For more details see de Paz (2024) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-62836-8_3> and Loh (2011) <doi:10.1002/widm.8> .
