Providing a common set of simplified web scraping tools for working with the NHS Data Dictionary <https://datadictionary.nhs.uk/data_elements_overview.html>. The intended usage is to access the data elements section of the NHS Data Dictionary to access key lookups. The benefits of having it in this package are that the lookups are the live lookups on the website and will not need to be maintained. This package was commissioned by the NHS-R community <https://nhsrcommunity.com/> to provide this consistency of lookups. The OpenSafely lookups have now been added <https://www.opencodelists.org/docs/>.

Designed to replace the tables which were in the back of the first two editions of Hollander and Wolfe - Nonparametric Statistical Methods. Exact procedures are performed when computationally possible. Monte Carlo and Asymptotic procedures are performed otherwise. For those procedures included in the base packages, our code simply provides a wrapper to standardize the output with the other procedures in the package.

Simulation, estimation, prediction procedure, and model identification methods for nonlinear time series analysis, including threshold autoregressive models, Markov-switching models, convolutional functional autoregressive models, nonlinearity tests, Kalman filters and various sequential Monte Carlo methods. More examples and details about this package can be found in the book "Nonlinear Time Series Analysis" by Ruey S. Tsay and Rong Chen, John Wiley & Sons, 2018 (ISBN: 978-1-119-26407-1).

This package provides functions to fit linear mixed models based on convolutions of the generalized Laplace (GL) distribution. The GL mixed-effects model includes four special cases with normal random effects and normal errors (NN), normal random effects and Laplace errors (NL), Laplace random effects and normal errors (LN), and Laplace random effects and Laplace errors (LL). The methods are described in Geraci and Farcomeni (2020, Statistical Methods in Medical Research) <doi:10.1177/0962280220903763>.

This package provides efficient methods to compute co-occurrence matrices, pointwise mutual information (PMI) and singular value decomposition (SVD). In the biomedical and clinical settings, one challenge is the huge size of databases, e.g. when analyzing data of millions of patients over tens of years. To address this, this package provides functions to efficiently compute monthly co-occurrence matrices, which is the computational bottleneck of the analysis, by using the RcppAlgos package and sparse matrices. Furthermore, the functions can be called on SQL databases, enabling the computation of co-occurrence matrices of tens of gigabytes of data, representing millions of patients over tens of years. Partly based on Hong C. (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41746-021-00519-z>.

This package provides a program for Bayesian analysis of univariate normal mixtures with an unknown number of components, following the approach of Richardson and Green (1997) <doi:10.1111/1467-9868.00095>. This makes use of reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo methods that are capable of jumping between the parameter sub-spaces corresponding to different numbers of components in the mixture. A sample from the full joint distribution of all unknown variables is thereby generated, and this can be used as a basis for a thorough presentation of many aspects of the posterior distribution.

This package provides functions for specifying and fitting nested dichotomy logistic regression models for a multi-category response and methods for summarising and plotting those models. Nested dichotomies are statistically independent, and hence provide an additive decomposition of tests for the overall polytomous response. When the dichotomies make sense substantively, this method can be a simpler alternative to the standard multinomial logistic model which compares response categories to a reference level. See: J. Fox (2016), "Applied Regression Analysis and Generalized Linear Models", 3rd Ed., ISBN 1452205663.

Sample sizes are often small due to hard to reach target populations, rare target events, time constraints, limited budgets, or ethical considerations. Two statistical methods with promising performance in small samples are the nonparametric bootstrap test with pooled resampling method, which is the focus of Dwivedi, Mallawaarachchi, and Alvarado (2017) <doi:10.1002/sim.7263>, and informative hypothesis testing, which is implemented in the restriktor package. The npboottprmFBar package uses the nonparametric bootstrap test with pooled resampling method to implement informative hypothesis testing. The bootFbar() function can be used to analyze data with this method and the persimon() function can be used to conduct performance simulations on type-one error and statistical power.

This package provides functions to compute the Rank-Based Stability Index (RSI) for genotype by environment interaction data, along with a genotype plus genotype-by-environment (GGE) style biplot visualization of stability.

The Nordklim dataset 1.0 is a unique and useful achievement for climate analysis. It includes observations of twelve different climate elements from more than 100 stations in the Nordic region, in time span over 100 years. The project contractors were NORDKLIM/NORDMET on behalf of the National meteorological services in Denmark (DMI), Finland (FMI), Iceland (VI), Norway (DNMI) and Sweden (SMHI).

This package provides a novel integral estimator for estimating the causal effects with continuous treatments (or dose-response curves) and a localized derivative estimator for estimating the derivative effects. The inference on the dose-response curve and its derivative is conducted via nonparametric bootstrap. The reference paper is Zhang, Chen, and Giessing (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2405.09003>.

Researchers often want to evaluate whether there is a negligible relationship among variables. The negligible package provides functions that are useful for conducting negligible effect testing (also called equivalence testing). For example, there are functions for evaluating the equivalence of means or the presence of a negligible association (correlation or regression). Beribisky, N., Mara, C., & Cribbie, R. A.

Nonparametric smoothing methods for density and regression estimation and inference with circular data. The package provides kernel density estimation along with inferential tools such as circular SiZer for feature significance, mode estimation, and modal clustering. It includes multiple methods for selecting the smoothing parameter, allowing users to optimize the trade-off between bias and variance. Various plotting functions help visualize estimated densities, modes, clusters, and significance features. For regression, the package implements nonparametric estimation of the mean regression function as well as other conditional characteristics, including modal regression and generalized regression. Bandwidth selection is also supported in the regression context, and testing procedures are available to assess structural features or effects in circular regression models.
