Enables sampling from arbitrary distributions if the log density is known up to a constant; a common situation in the context of Bayesian inference. The implemented sampling algorithm was proposed by Vihola (2012) <DOI:10.1007/s11222-011-9269-5> and achieves often a high efficiency by tuning the proposal distributions to a user defined acceptance rate.
This package contains several Bayesian models for data analysis of psychological tests. A user friendly interface for these models should enable students and researchers to perform professional level Bayesian data analysis without advanced knowledge in programming and Bayesian statistics. This package is based on the Stan platform (Carpenter et el. 2017 <doi:10.18637/jss.v076.i01>).
This package provides spatial data for mapping Brunei, including boundaries for districts, mukims, and kampongs, as well as locations of key infrastructure such as masjids, hospitals, clinics, and schools. The package supports researchers, analysts, and developers working with Bruneiâ s geographic and demographic data, offering a quick and accessible foundation for creating maps and conducting spatial studies.
Fit and simulate a semiparametric bivariate correlated frailty models with proportional hazard structure. Frailty distributions, such as gamma and lognormal models are supported. Bivariate gamma fit is obtained using the approach given in Iachine (1995) and lognormal fit is based on the approach by Ripatti and Palmgren (2000) <doi:10.1111/j.0006-341X.2000.01016.x>.
This package provides functions to prepare tidy objects from estimated models via BVAR (see Kuschnig & Vashold, 2019 <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.25541.60643>) and visualisation thereof. Bridges the gap between estimating models with BVAR and plotting the results in a more sophisticated way with ggplot2 as well as passing them on in a tidy format.
Fits predictive and symmetric co-correspondence analysis (CoCA
) models to relate one data matrix to another data matrix. More specifically, CoCA
maximises the weighted covariance between the weighted averaged species scores of one community and the weighted averaged species scores of another community. CoCA
attempts to find patterns that are common to both communities.
This hosts the findRFM
function which generates RFM scores on a 1-5 point scale for customer transaction data. The function consumes a data frame with Transaction Number, Customer ID, Date of Purchase (in date format) and Amount of Purchase as the attributes. The function returns a data frame with RFM data for the sales information.
Mapping tools that convert place names to coordinates on the fly. These ggplot2 extensions make maps from a data frame where one of the columns contains place names, without having to directly work with the underlying geospatial data and tools. The corresponding map data must be registered with cartographer either by the user or by another package.
Bayesian Survival models via the mixture of Log-Normal distribution extends the well-known survival models and accommodates different behaviour over time and considers higher censored survival times. The proposal combines mixture distributions Fruhwirth-Schnatter(2006) <doi:10.1007/s11336-009-9121-4>, and data augmentation techniques Tanner and Wong (1987) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1987.10478458>.
Normalize data to minimize the difference between sample plates (batch effects). For given data in a matrix and grouping variable (or plate), the function normn_MA normalizes the data on MA coordinates. More details are in the citation. The primary method is Multi-MA'. Other fitting functions on MA coordinates can also be employed e.g. loess.
Implementation of Warnes & Raftery's MCGibbsit run-length and convergence diagnostic for a set of (not-necessarily independent) Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) samplers. It combines the quantile estimate error-bounding approach of the Raftery and Lewis MCMC run length diagnostic `gibbsit` with the between verses within chain approach of the Gelman and Rubin MCMC convergence diagnostic.
Programmatic interface to several NASA Earth Observation OPeNDAP
servers (Open-source Project for a Network Data Access Protocol) (<https://www.opendap.org/>). Allows for easy downloads of MODIS subsets, as well as other Earth Observation datacubes, in a time-saving and efficient way : by sampling it at the very downloading phase (spatially, temporally and dimensionally).
This package provides methods for the analysis of how ecological drivers affect the multifunctionality of an ecosystem based on methods of Byrnes et al. 2016 <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12143> and Byrnes et al. 2022 <doi:10.1101/2022.03.17.484802>. Most standard methods in the literature are implemented (see vignettes) in a tidy format.
Implementation of commonly used p-value-based and parametric multiple testing procedures (computation of adjusted p-values and simultaneous confidence intervals) and parallel gatekeeping procedures based on the methodology presented in the book "Multiple Testing Problems in Pharmaceutical Statistics" (edited by Alex Dmitrienko, Ajit C. Tamhane and Frank Bretz) published by Chapman and Hall/CRC Press 2009.
This package contains a collection of functions for performing different kinds of calculation that are of interest to someone following a diet plan. Calculators for the Basal Metabolic Rate are based on Mifflin et al. (1990) <doi:10.1093/ajcn/51.2.241> and McArdle
, W. D., Katch, F. I., & Katch, V. L. (2010, ISBN:9780812109917).
This package provides a bridge is created between existing robust open-source record linkage algorithms and an urgently needed user-friendly platform that removes financial and technical barriers, setting a new standard for data interoperability in public health and bioinformatics. The fastLink
