This package performs Granger causality tests on pairs of time series to determine causal relationships. Uses Vector Autoregressive (VAR) models to test whether one time series helps predict another beyond what the series own past values provide. Returns structured results including p-values, test statistics, and causality conclusions for both directions.

This package provides a novel statistical model to detect the joint genetic and dynamic gene-environment (GxE) interaction with continuous traits in genetic association studies. It uses varying-coefficient models to account for different GxE trajectories, regardless whether the relationship is linear or not. The package includes one function, GxEtest(), to test a single genetic variant (e.g., a single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP), and another function, GxEscreen(), to test for a set of genetic variants. The method involves a likelihood ratio test described in Crainiceanu, C. M., and Ruppert, D. (2004) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2004.00438.x>.

Generalized meta-analysis is a technique for estimating parameters associated with a multiple regression model through meta-analysis of studies which may have information only on partial sets of the regressors. It estimates the effects of each variable while fully adjusting for all other variables that are measured in at least one of the studies. Using algebraic relationships between regression parameters in different dimensions, a set of moment equations is specified for estimating the parameters of a maximal model through information available on sets of parameter estimates from a series of reduced models available from the different studies. The specification of the equations requires a reference dataset to estimate the joint distribution of the covariates. These equations are solved using the generalized method of moments approach, with the optimal weighting of the equations taking into account uncertainty associated with estimates of the parameters of the reduced models. The proposed framework is implemented using iterated reweighted least squares algorithm for fitting generalized linear regression models. For more details about the method, please see pre-print version of the manuscript on generalized meta-analysis by Prosenjit Kundu, Runlong Tang and Nilanjan Chatterjee (2018) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asz030>.The current version (0.2.0) is updated to address some of the stability issues in the previous version (0.1).

Fits multiple-group latent class analysis (LCA) for exploring differences between populations in the data with a multilevel structure. There are two approaches to reflect group differences in glca: fixed-effect LCA (Bandeen-Roche et al (1997) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1997.10473658>; Clogg and Goodman (1985) <doi:10.2307/270847>) and nonparametric random-effect LCA (Vermunt (2003) <doi:10.1111/j.0081-1750.2003.t01-1-00131.x>).

Splits date and time of day components from continuous datetime objects, then plots them using grammar of graphics ('ggplot2'). Plots can also be decorated with solar cycle information (e.g., sunset, sunrise, etc.). This is useful for visualising data that are associated with the solar cycle.

This package implements the generalized propensity score cumulative distribution function proposed by Greene (2017) <https://digitalcommons.library.tmc.edu/dissertations/AAI10681743/>. A single scalar balancing score is calculated for any generalized propensity score vector with three or more treatments. This balancing score is used for propensity score matching and stratification in outcome analyses when analyzing either ordinal or multinomial treatments.

This package provides flexible tools for the visualization of genomic data. Supports interactive and static plots tailored for presentations and publications, with customizable features like colors, themes, and annotations to align with specific analytical and presentation goals.

An optim-style implementation of the Stochastic Quasi-Gradient Differential Evolution (SQG-DE) optimization algorithm first published by Sala, Baldanzini, and Pierini (2018; <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-72926-8_27>). This optimization algorithm fuses the robustness of the population-based global optimization algorithm "Differential Evolution" with the efficiency of gradient-based optimization. The derivative-free algorithm uses population members to build stochastic gradient estimates, without any additional objective function evaluations. Sala, Baldanzini, and Pierini argue this algorithm is useful for difficult optimization problems under a tight function evaluation budget. This package can run SQG-DE in parallel and sequentially.

The gasanalyzer R package offers methods for importing, preprocessing, and analyzing data related to photosynthetic characteristics (gas exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence and isotope ratios). It translates variable names into a standard format, and can recalculate derived, physiological quantities using imported or predefined equations. The package also allows users to assess the sensitivity of their results to different assumptions used in the calculations. See also Tholen (2024) <doi:10.1093/aobpla/plae035>.

This package provides methods to calculate sensitivities of financial option prices for European, geometric and arithmetic Asian, and American options, with various payoff functions in the Black Scholes model, and in more general jump diffusion models.

This package provides tools for assessing and diagnosing convergence of Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulations, as well as for graphically display results from full MCMC analysis. The package also facilitates the graphical interpretation of models by providing flexible functions to plot the results against observed variables, and functions to work with hierarchical/multilevel batches of parameters (Fernández-i-Marà n, 2016 <doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i09>).

The GenSVM classifier is a generalized multiclass support vector machine (SVM). This classifier aims to find decision boundaries that separate the classes with as wide a margin as possible. In GenSVM, the loss function is very flexible in the way that misclassifications are penalized. This allows the user to tune the classifier to the dataset at hand and potentially obtain higher classification accuracy than alternative multiclass SVMs. Moreover, this flexibility means that GenSVM has a number of other multiclass SVMs as special cases. One of the other advantages of GenSVM is that it is trained in the primal space, allowing the use of warm starts during optimization. This means that for common tasks such as cross validation or repeated model fitting, GenSVM can be trained very quickly. Based on: G.J.J. van den Burg and P.J.F. Groenen (2018) <https://www.jmlr.org/papers/v17/14-526.html>.

Several Goodness-of-Fit (GoF) tests for Copulae are provided. A new hybrid test, Zhang et al. (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2016.02.017> is implemented which supports all of the individual tests in the package, e.g. Genest et al. (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2007.10.005>. Estimation methods for the margins are provided and all the tests support parameter estimation and predefined values. The parameters are estimated by pseudo maximum likelihood but if it fails the estimation switches automatically to inversion of Kendall's tau. For reproducibility of results, the functions support the definition of seeds. Also all the tests support automatized parallelization of the bootstrapping tasks. The package provides an interface to perform new GoF tests by submitting the test statistic.
