This package provides a collection of methods for modeling time-to-event data using both functional and scalar predictors. It implements functional data analysis techniques for estimation and inference, allowing researchers to assess the impact of functional covariates on survival outcomes, including time-to-single event and recurrent event outcomes.

This package provides a fast and scalable linear mixed-effects model (LMM) estimation algorithm for analysis of single-cell differential expression. The algorithm uses summary-level statistics and requires less computer memory to fit the LMM.

For functions that take and return vectors (or scalars), this package provides 8 algorithms for finding fixed point vectors (vectors for which the inputs and outputs to the function are the same vector). These algorithms include Anderson (1965) acceleration <doi:10.1145/321296.321305>, epsilon extrapolation methods (Wynn 1962 <doi:10.2307/2004051>) and minimal polynomial methods (Cabay and Jackson 1976 <doi:10.1137/0713060>).

Datasets for teaching quantitative approaches and modeling in archaeology and paleontology. This package provides several types of data related to broad topics (cultural evolution, radiocarbon dating, paleoenvironments, etc.), which can be used to illustrate statistical methods in the classroom (multivariate data analysis, compositional data analysis, diversity measurement, etc.).

The proximate composition analysis is the quantification of main components that constitutes nutritional profile of any food and food products including fish, shellfish, fish feed and their ingredients. Understanding this composition is essential for evaluating their nutritional value and for making informed dietary choices. The primary components typically analyzed include; moisture/ water in foods, crude protein, crude fat/ lipid, total ash, fiber and carbohydrates AOAC(2005,ISBN:0-935584-77-3). In case of fish, shellfish and its products, the proximate composition consists of four primary constituents - water, protein, fat, and ash (mostly minerals). Fish exhibit significant variation in their chemical makeup based on age, sex, environment, and season, both within the same species and between individual fish. There is minimal fluctuation in the content of ash and protein. The lipid concentration varies remarkably and is inversely correlated with the water content. In case of fish, carbohydrates are present in minor quantity so that are quantified by subtracting total of other components from 100 to get percentage of carbohydrates.

This package provides functions for range estimation in birds based on Pennycuick (2008) and Pennycuick (1975), Flight program which compliments Pennycuick (2008) requires manual entry of birds which can be tedious when there are thousands of birds to estimate. Implemented are two ODE methods discussed in Pennycuick (1975) and time-marching computation method "constant muscle mass" as in Pennycuick (1998). See Pennycuick (1975, ISBN:978-0-12-249405-5), Pennycuick (1998) <doi:10.1006/jtbi.1997.0572>, and Pennycuick (2008, ISBN:9780080557816).

Estimation of functional spaces based on traits of organisms. The package includes functions to impute missing trait values (with or without considering phylogenetic information), and to create, represent and analyse two dimensional functional spaces based on principal components analysis, other ordination methods, or raw traits. It also allows for mapping a third variable onto the functional space. See Carmona et al. (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41586-021-03871-y>, Puglielli et al. (2021) <doi:10.1111/nph.16952>, Carmona et al. (2021) <doi:10.1126/sciadv.abf2675>, Carmona et al. (2019) <doi:10.1002/ecy.2876> for more information.

This package creates a HTML widget which displays the results of searching for a pattern in files in a given git repository, including all its branches. The results can also be returned in a dataframe.

Fire behavior prediction models, including the Scott & Reinhardt's (2001) Rothermel Wildland Fire Modelling System <DOI:10.2737/RMRS-RP-29> and Alexander et al.'s (2006) Crown Fire Initiation & Spread model <DOI:10.1016/j.foreco.2006.08.174>. Also contains sample datasets, estimation of fire behavior prediction model inputs (e.g., fuel moisture, canopy characteristics, wind adjustment factor), results visualization, and methods to estimate fire weather hazard.

We implement a cocktail algorithm, a good mixture of coordinate decent, the majorization-minimization principle and the strong rule, for computing the solution paths of the elastic net penalized Cox's proportional hazards model. The package is an implementation of Yang, Y. and Zou, H. (2013) <doi:10.4310/SII.2013.v6.n2.a1>.

This package provides optimized C++ code for computing the partial Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) test used in niche and species distribution modeling. The implementation follows Peterson et al. (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2007.11.008>. Parallelization via OpenMP was implemented with assistance from the DeepSeek Artificial Intelligence Assistant (<https://www.deepseek.com/>).

Fit data to an ellipse, hyperbola, or parabola. Bootstrapping is available when needed. The conic curve can be rotated through an arbitrary angle and the fit will still succeed. Helper functions are provided to convert generator coefficients from one style to another, generate test data sets, rotate conic section parameters, and so on.

Multiple testing procedures for heterogeneous and discrete tests as described in Döhler and Roquain (2020) <doi:10.1214/20-EJS1771>. The main algorithms of the paper are available as continuous, discrete and weighted versions. They take as input the results of a test procedure from package DiscreteTests', or a set of observed p-values and their discrete support under their nulls. A shortcut function to obtain such p-values and supports is also provided, along with wrappers allowing to apply discrete procedures directly to data.

Fit (generalized) linear regression models in each leaf node of a tree. The tree is constructed using clinical variables only. The linear regression models are constructed using (high-dimensional) omics variables only. The leaf-node-specific regression models are estimated using the penalized likelihood including a standard ridge (L2) penalty and a fusion penalty that links the leaf-node-specific regression models to one another. The intercepts of the leaf nodes reflect the effects of the clinical variables and are left unpenalized. The tree, fitted with the clinical variables only, should be constructed outside of the package with the rpart R package. See Goedhart and others (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2411.02396> for details on the method.

As in music, a fugue statistic repeats a theme in small variations. Here, the psi-function that defines an m-statistic is slightly altered to maintain the same design sensitivity in matched sets of different sizes. The main functions in the package are sen() and senCI(). For sensitivity analyses for m-statistics, see Rosenbaum (2007) Biometrics 63 456-464 <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2006.00717.x>.
