Gene Symbols or Ensembl Gene IDs are converted using the Bimap interface in AnnotationDbi in convertId2() but that function is only provided as fallback mechanism for the most common use cases in data analysis. The main function in the package is convert.bm() which queries BioMart using the full capacity of the API provided through the biomaRt package. Presets and defaults are provided for convenience but all "marts", "filters" and "attributes" can be set by the user. Function convert.alias() converts Gene Symbols to Aliases and vice versa and function likely_symbol() attempts to determine the most likely current Gene Symbol.

This package performs biomedical named entity recognition, Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) concept mapping, and negation detection using the Python spaCy', scispaCy', and medspaCy packages, and transforms extracted data into a wide format for inclusion in machine learning models. The development of the scispaCy package is described by Neumann (2019) <doi:10.18653/v1/W19-5034>. The medspacy package uses ConText', an algorithm for determining the context of clinical statements described by Harkema (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.jbi.2009.05.002>. Clinspacy also supports entity embeddings from scispaCy and UMLS cui2vec concept embeddings developed by Beam (2018) <arXiv:1804.01486>.

This package provides utility functions, distributions, and fitting methods for Bayesian Spatial Capture-Recapture (SCR) and Open Population Spatial Capture-Recapture (OPSCR) modelling using the nimble package (de Valpine et al. 2017 <doi:10.1080/10618600.2016.1172487 >). Development of the package was motivated primarily by the need for flexible and efficient analysis of large-scale SCR data (Bischof et al. 2020 <doi:10.1073/pnas.2011383117 >). Computational methods and techniques implemented in nimbleSCR include those discussed in Turek et al. 2021 <doi:10.1002/ecs2.3385>; among others. For a recent application of nimbleSCR, see Milleret et al. (2021) <doi:10.1098/rsbl.2021.0128>.

Supports risk assessors in performing the entry step of the quantitative Pest Risk Assessment. It allows the estimation of the amount of a plant pest entering a risk assessment area (in terms of founder populations) through the calculation of the imported commodities that could be potential pathways of pest entry, and the development of a pathway model. Two Shiny apps based on the functionalities of the package are included, that simplify the process of assessing the risk of entry of plant pests. The approach is based on the work of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA PLH Panel et al., 2018) <doi:10.2903/j.efsa.2018.5350>.

Sequence detector in this package contains a specific automaton model that can be used to learn and detect data and process sequences. Automaton model in this package is capable of learning and tracing sequences. Automaton model can be found in Krleža, Vrdoljak, BrÄ iÄ (2019) <doi:10.1109/ACCESS.2019.2955245>. This research has been partly supported under Competitiveness and Cohesion Operational Programme from the European Regional and Development Fund, as part of the Integrated Anti-Fraud System project no. KK.01.2.1.01.0041. This research has also been partly supported by the European Regional Development Fund under the grant KK.01.1.1.01.0009.

Tensor Gaussian graphical models (GGMs) have important applications in numerous areas, which can interpret conditional independence structures within tensor data. Yet, the available tensor data in one single study is often limited due to high acquisition costs. Although relevant studies can provide additional data, it remains an open question how to pool such heterogeneous data. This package implements a transfer learning framework for tensor GGMs, which takes full advantage of informative auxiliary domains even when non-informative auxiliary domains are present, benefiting from the carefully designed data-adaptive weights.

The introduction of the broom package has made converting model objects into data frames as simple as a single function. While the broom package focuses on providing tidy data frames that can be used in advanced analysis, it deliberately stops short of providing functionality for reporting models in publication-ready tables. pixiedust provides this functionality with a programming interface intended to be similar to ggplot2's system of layers with fine tuned control over each cell of the table. Options for output include printing to the console and to the common markdown formats (markdown, HTML, and LaTeX). With a little pixiedust (and happy thoughts) tables can really fly.

This package implements a two-stage estimation approach for Cox regression using five-parameter M-spline functions to model the baseline hazard. It allows for flexible hazard shapes and model selection based on log-likelihood criteria as described in Teranishi et al.(2025). In addition, the package provides functions for constructing and evaluating B-spline copulas based on five M-spline or I-spline basis functions, allowing users to flexibly model and compute bivariate dependence structures. Both the copula function and its density can be evaluated. Furthermore, the package supports computation of dependence measures such as Kendall's tau and Spearman's rho, derived analytically from the copula parameters.

Original idea was presented in the thesis "A statistical analysis tool for agricultural research" to obtain the degree of Master on science, National Engineering University (UNI), Lima-Peru. Some experimental data for the examples come from the CIP and others research. Agricolae offers extensive functionality on experimental design especially for agricultural and plant breeding experiments, which can also be useful for other purposes. It supports planning of lattice, Alpha, Cyclic, Complete Block, Latin Square, Graeco-Latin Squares, augmented block, factorial, split and strip plot designs. There are also various analysis facilities for experimental data, e.g. treatment comparison procedures and several non-parametric tests comparison, biodiversity indexes and consensus cluster.

Fits tractable fully parametric odds-based regression models for survival data, including proportional odds (PO), accelerated failure time (AFT), accelerated odds (AO), and General Odds (GO) models in overall survival frameworks. Given at least an R function specifying the survivor, hazard rate and cumulative distribution functions, any user-defined parametric distribution can be fitted. We applied and evaluated a minimum of seventeen (17) various baseline distributions that can handle different failure rate shapes for each of the four different proposed odds-based regression models. For more information see Bennet et al., (1983) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780020223>, and Muse et al., (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.aej.2022.01.033>.

An R Shiny application for visual and statistical exploration and web communication of archaeological spatial data, either remains or sites. It offers interactive 3D and 2D visualisations (cross sections and maps of remains, timeline of the work made in a site) which can be exported in SVG and HTML formats. It performs simple spatial statistics (convex hull, regression surfaces, 2D kernel density estimation) and allows exporting data to other online applications for more complex methods. archeoViz can be used offline locally or deployed on a server, either with interactive input of data or with a static data set. Example is provided at <https://analytics.huma-num.fr/archeoviz/en>.

These are data sets for the hit TV show, RuPaul's Drag Race. Data right now include episode-level data, contestant-level data, and episode-contestant-level data. This is a work in progress, and a love letter of a kind to RuPaul's Drag Race and the performers that have appeared on the show. This may not be the most productive use of my time, but I have tenure and what are you going to do about it? I think there is at least some value in this package if it allows the show's fandom to learn more about the R programming language around its contents.

This package provides a comprehensive framework for bioinformatics exploratory analysis of bulk and single-cell T-cell receptor and antibody repertoires. It provides seamless data loading, analysis and visualisation for AIRR (Adaptive Immune Receptor Repertoire) data, both bulk immunosequencing (RepSeq) and single-cell sequencing (scRNAseq). Immunarch implements most of the widely used AIRR analysis methods, such as: clonality analysis, estimation of repertoire similarities in distribution of clonotypes and gene segments, repertoire diversity analysis, annotation of clonotypes using external immune receptor databases and clonotype tracking in vaccination and cancer studies. A successor to our previously published tcR immunoinformatics package (Nazarov 2015) <doi:10.1186/s12859-015-0613-1>.

Conduct multi-locus genome-wide association study under the framework of multi-locus random-SNP-effect mixed linear model (mrMLM). First, each marker on the genome is scanned. Bonferroni correction is replaced by a less stringent selection criterion for significant test. Then, all the markers that are potentially associated with the trait are included in a multi-locus genetic model, their effects are estimated by empirical Bayes and all the nonzero effects were further identified by likelihood ratio test for true QTL.

An object is called "outlier" if it remarkably deviates from the other objects in a data set. Outlier detection is the process to find outliers by using the methods that are based on distance measures, clustering and spatial methods (Ben-Gal, 2005 <ISBN 0-387-24435-2>). It is one of the intensively studied research topics for identification of novelties, frauds, anomalies, deviations or exceptions in addition to its use for outlier removing in data processing. This package provides the implementations of some novel approaches to detect the outliers based on typicality degrees that are obtained with the soft partitioning clustering algorithms such as Fuzzy C-means and its variants.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process is a versatile multi-criteria decision-making tool introduced by Saaty (1987) <doi:10.1016/0270-0255(87)90473-8> that allows decision-makers to weigh attributes and evaluate alternatives presented to them. This package provides a consistent methodology for researchers to reformat data and run analytic hierarchy process in R on data that are formatted using the survey data entry mode. It is optimized for performing the analytic hierarchy process with many decision-makers, and provides tools and options for researchers to aggregate individual preferences and test multiple options. It also allows researchers to quantify, visualize and correct for inconsistency in the decision-maker's comparisons.

This package provides functions to estimate and interpret the alpha-NOMINATE ideal point model developed in Carroll et al. (2013, <doi:10.1111/ajps.12029>). alpha-NOMINATE extends traditional spatial voting frameworks by allowing for a mixture of Gaussian and quadratic utility functions, providing flexibility in modeling political actors preferences. The package uses Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for parameter estimation, supporting robust inference about individuals ideological positions and the shape of their utility functions. It also contains functions to simulate data from the model and to calculate the probability of a vote passing given the ideal points of the legislators/voters and the estimated location of the choice alternatives.

This package provides a suite of Bayesian MI-LASSO for variable selection methods for multiply-imputed datasets. The package includes four Bayesian MI-LASSO models using shrinkage (Multi-Laplace, Horseshoe, ARD) and Spike-and-Slab (Spike-and-Laplace) priors, along with tools for model fitting via MCMC, three-step projection predictive variable selection, and hyperparameter calibration. Methods are suitable for both continuous and binary covariates under missing-at-random assumptions. See Zou, J., Wang, S. and Chen, Q. (2022), Variable Selection for Multiply-imputed Data: A Bayesian Framework. ArXiv, 2211.00114. <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2211.00114> for more details. We also provide the frequentist`s MI-LASSO function.

This package provides a class of Bayesian beta regression models for the analysis of continuous data with support restricted to an unknown finite support. The response variable is modeled using a four-parameter beta distribution with the mean or mode parameter depending linearly on covariates through a link function. When the response support is known to be (0,1), the above class of models reduce to traditional (0,1) supported beta regression models. Model choice is carried out via the logarithm of the pseudo marginal likelihood (LPML), the deviance information criterion (DIC), and the Watanabe-Akaike information criterion (WAIC). See Zhou and Huang (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2021.107345>.

This package contains Bayesian implementations of the Mixed-Effects Accelerated Failure Time (MEAFT) models for censored data. Those can be not only right-censored but also interval-censored, doubly-interval-censored or misclassified interval-censored. The methods implemented in the package have been published in Komárek and Lesaffre (2006, Stat. Modelling) <doi:10.1191/1471082X06st107oa>, Komárek, Lesaffre and Legrand (2007, Stat. in Medicine) <doi:10.1002/sim.3083>, Komárek and Lesaffre (2007, Stat.

Generic Machine Learning Inference on heterogeneous treatment effects in randomized experiments as proposed in Chernozhukov, Demirer, Duflo and Fernández-Val (2020) <arXiv:1712.04802>. This package's workhorse is the mlr3 framework of Lang et al. (2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01903>, which enables the specification of a wide variety of machine learners. The main functionality, GenericML(), runs Algorithm 1 in Chernozhukov, Demirer, Duflo and Fernández-Val (2020) <arXiv:1712.04802> for a suite of user-specified machine learners. All steps in the algorithm are customizable via setup functions. Methods for printing and plotting are available for objects returned by GenericML(). Parallel computing is supported.

Determining potential output and the output gap - two inherently unobservable variables - is a major challenge for macroeconomists. sectorgap features a flexible modeling and estimation framework for a multivariate Bayesian state space model identifying economic output fluctuations consistent with subsectors of the economy. The proposed model is able to capture various correlations between output and a set of aggregate as well as subsector indicators. Estimation of the latent states and parameters is achieved using a simple Gibbs sampling procedure and various plotting options facilitate the assessment of the results. For details on the methodology and an illustrative example, see Streicher (2024) <https://www.research-collection.ethz.ch/handle/20.500.11850/653682>.

An interface for creating, registering, and resolving content-based identifiers for data management. Content-based identifiers rely on the cryptographic hashes to refer to the files they identify, thus, anyone possessing the file can compute the identifier using a well-known standard algorithm, such as SHA256'. By registering a URL at which the content is accessible to a public archive (such as Hash Archive) or depositing data in a scientific repository such Zenodo', DataONE or SoftwareHeritage', the content identifier can serve many functions typically associated with A Digital Object Identifier ('DOI'). Unlike location-based identifiers like DOIs', content-based identifiers permit the same content to be registered in many locations.
