Generalized additive model selection via approximate Bayesian inference is provided. Bayesian mixed model-based penalized splines with spike-and-slab-type coefficient prior distributions are used to facilitate fitting and selection. The approximate Bayesian inference engine options are: (1) Markov chain Monte Carlo and (2) mean field variational Bayes. Markov chain Monte Carlo has better Bayesian inferential accuracy, but requires a longer run-time. Mean field variational Bayes is faster, but less accurate. The methodology is described in He and Wand (2024) <doi:10.1007/s10182-023-00490-y>.

This package provides a collection of datasets and simplified functions for an introductory (geo)statistics module at University College London. Provides functionality for compositional, directional and spatial data, including ternary diagrams, Wulff and Schmidt stereonets, and ordinary kriging interpolation. Implements logistic and (additive and centred) logratio transformations. Computes vector averages and concentration parameters for the von-Mises distribution. Includes a collection of natural and synthetic fractals, and a simulator for deterministic chaos using a magnetic pendulum example. The main purpose of these functions is pedagogical. Researchers can find more complete alternatives for these tools in other packages such as compositions', robCompositions', sp', gstat and RFOC'. All the functions are written in plain R, with no compiled code and a minimal number of dependencies. Theoretical background and worked examples are available at <https://tinyurl.com/UCLgeostats/>.

Accurate and computationally efficient p-value calculation methods for a general family of Fisher type statistics (GFisher). The GFisher covers Fisher's combination, Good's statistic, Lancaster's statistic, weighted Z-score combination, etc. It allows a flexible weighting scheme, as well as an omnibus procedure that automatically adapts proper weights and degrees of freedom to a given data. The new p-value calculation methods are based on novel ideas of moment-ratio matching and joint-distribution approximation. The technical details can be found in Hong Zhang and Zheyang Wu (2020) <arXiv:2003.01286>.

Likelihood inference in Gaussian copula marginal regression models.

This package provides a Gibbs sampler corresponding to a Group Inverse-Gamma Gamma (GIGG) regression model with adjustment covariates. Hyperparameters in the GIGG prior specification can either be fixed by the user or can be estimated via Marginal Maximum Likelihood Estimation.

This package provides an extension to ggplot2 (Wickham, 2016, <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-24277-4>) for creating two types of continuous confidence interval plots (Violin CI and Gradient CI plots), typically for the sample mean. These plots contain multiple user-defined confidence areas with varying colours, defined by the underlying t-distribution used to compute standard confidence intervals for the mean of the normal distribution when the variance is unknown. Two types of plots are available, a gradient plot with rectangular areas, and a violin plot where the shape (horizontal width) is defined by the probability density function of the t-distribution. These visualizations are studied in (Helske, Helske, Cooper, Ynnerman, and Besancon, 2021) <doi:10.1109/TVCG.2021.3073466>.

Fits generalized linear models where the parameters are subject to linear constraints. The model is specified by giving a symbolic description of the linear predictor, a description of the error distribution, and a matrix of constraints on the parameters.

This package performs Geometrical Archetypal Analysis after creating Grid Archetypes which are the Cartesian Product of all minimum, maximum variable values. Since the archetypes are fixed now, we have the ability to compute the convex composition coefficients for all our available data points much faster by using the half part of Principal Convex Hull Archetypal method. Additionally we can decide to keep as archetypes the closer to the Grid Archetypes ones. Finally the number of archetypes is always 2 to the power of the dimension of our data points if we consider them as a vector space. Cutler, A., Breiman, L.
