In applications it is usual that some additional information is available. This package dawai (an acronym for Discriminant Analysis With Additional Information) performs linear and quadratic discriminant analysis with additional information expressed as inequality restrictions among the populations means. It also computes several estimations of the true error rate.

This package implements Design-Robust Meta-Analysis (DR-Meta), a variance-function random-effects framework in which between-study heterogeneity is modelled as a function of a study-level design robustness index, allowing heterogeneity to depend systematically on study quality or design strength rather than being treated as a single nuisance parameter. The package provides profiled restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimation of the overall effect and variance-function parameters, study-specific weights, heterogeneity diagnostics (tau-squared, I-squared), influence and leave-one-out analysis, and graphical tools including forest plots and influence plots. The DR-Meta framework nests classical fixed-effects and standard random-effects meta-analysis as special cases, making it a strict generalisation of existing approaches.

The Data Driven I-V Feature Extraction is used to extract Current-Voltage (I-V) features from I-V curves. I-V curves indicate the relationship between current and voltage for a solar cell or Photovoltaic (PV) modules. The I-V features such as maximum power point (Pmp), shunt resistance (Rsh), series resistance (Rs),short circuit current (Isc), open circuit voltage (Voc), fill factor (FF), current at maximum power (Imp) and voltage at maximum power(Vmp) contain important information of the performance for PV modules. The traditional method uses the single diode model to model I-V curves and extract I-V features. This package does not use the diode model, but uses data-driven a method which select different linear parts of the I-V curves to extract I-V features. This method also uses a sampling method to calculate uncertainties when extracting I-V features. Also, because of the partially shaded array, "steps" occurs in I-V curves. The "Segmented Regression" method is used to identify steps in I-V curves. This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energyâ s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) under Solar Energy Technologies Office (SETO) Agreement Number DE-EE0007140.

Empirical Bayes methods for learning prior distributions from data. An unknown prior distribution (g) has yielded (unobservable) parameters, each of which produces a data point from a parametric exponential family (f). The goal is to estimate the unknown prior ("g-modeling") by deconvolution and Empirical Bayes methods. Details and examples are in the paper by Narasimhan and Efron (2020, <doi:10.18637/jss.v094.i11>).
