This package provides functions for sequencing studies allowing for multiple functional annotation scores. Score type tests and an efficient perturbation method are used for individual gene/large gene-set/genome wide analysis. Only summary statistics are needed.

The main function of this package allows numerical vector objects to be displayed with their values in vulgar fractional form. This is convenient if patterns can then be more easily detected. In some cases replacing the components of a numeric vector by a rational approximation can also be expected to remove some component of round-off error. The main functions form a re-implementation of the functions fractions and rational of the MASS package, but using a radically improved programming strategy.

Has two functions to help with calculating feature selection stability. Lump is a function that groups subset vectors into a dataframe, and adds NA to shorter vectors so they all have the same length. ASM is a function that takes a dataframe of subset vectors and the original vector of features as inputs, and calculates the Stability of the feature selection. The calculation for asm uses the Adjusted Stability Measure proposed in: Lustgarten', Gopalakrishnan', & Visweswaran (2009)<https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2815476/>.

Tests for Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) and communalities in a dataset.

Read and process a large delimited file block by block. A block consists of all the contiguous rows that have the same value in the first field. The result can be returned as a list or a data.table, or even directly printed to an output file.

Function factories are functions that make functions. They can be confusing to construct. Straightforward techniques can produce functions that are fragile or hard to understand. While more robust techniques exist to construct function factories, those techniques can be confusing. This package is designed to make it easier to construct function factories.

Randomized and balanced allocation of units to treatment groups using the Finite Selection Model (FSM). The FSM was originally proposed and developed at the RAND corporation by Carl Morris to enhance the experimental design for the now famous Health Insurance Experiment. See Morris (1979) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(79)90053-8> for details on the original version of the FSM.

Finds features through a detailed analysis of model residuals using rpart classification and regression trees. Scans the residuals of a model across subsets of the data to identify areas where the model differs from the actual data.

The four-gamete test is based on the infinite-sites model which assumes that the probability of the same mutation occurring twice (recurrent or parallel mutations) and the probability of a mutation back to the original state (reverse mutations) are close to zero. Without these types of mutations, the only explanation for observing the four dilocus genotypes (example below) is recombination (Hudson and Kaplan 1985, Genetics 111:147-164). Thus, the presence of all four gametes is also called phylogenetic incompatibility.

Regression models for functional data, i.e., scalar-on-function, function-on-scalar and function-on-function regression models, are fitted by a component-wise gradient boosting algorithm. For a manual on how to use FDboost', see Brockhaus, Ruegamer, Greven (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v094.i10>.

In the Cramérâ Lundberg risk process perturbed by a Wiener process, this packages provides approximations to the probability of ruin within a finite time horizon. Currently, there are three methods implemented: The first one uses saddlepoint approximation (two variants are provided), the second one uses importance sampling and the third one is based on the simulation of a dual process. This last method is not very accurate and only given here for completeness.

Developed by CDC/ATSDR (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention/ Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry), Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) serves as a tool to assess the resilience of communities by taking into account socioeconomic and demographic factors. Provided with year(s), region(s) and a geographic level of interest, findSVI retrieves required variables from US census data and calculates SVI for communities in the specified area based on CDC/ATSDR SVI documentation.

An implementation of various learning algorithms based on fuzzy rule-based systems (FRBSs) for dealing with classification and regression tasks. Moreover, it allows to construct an FRBS model defined by human experts. FRBSs are based on the concept of fuzzy sets, proposed by Zadeh in 1965, which aims at representing the reasoning of human experts in a set of IF-THEN rules, to handle real-life problems in, e.g., control, prediction and inference, data mining, bioinformatics data processing, and robotics. FRBSs are also known as fuzzy inference systems and fuzzy models. During the modeling of an FRBS, there are two important steps that need to be conducted: structure identification and parameter estimation. Nowadays, there exists a wide variety of algorithms to generate fuzzy IF-THEN rules automatically from numerical data, covering both steps. Approaches that have been used in the past are, e.g., heuristic procedures, neuro-fuzzy techniques, clustering methods, genetic algorithms, squares methods, etc. Furthermore, in this version we provide a universal framework named frbsPMML', which is adopted from the Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML), for representing FRBS models. PMML is an XML-based language to provide a standard for describing models produced by data mining and machine learning algorithms. Therefore, we are allowed to export and import an FRBS model to/from frbsPMML'. Finally, this package aims to implement the most widely used standard procedures, thus offering a standard package for FRBS modeling to the R community.

Randomized clinical trials commonly follow participants for a time-to-event efficacy endpoint for a fixed period of time. Consequently, at the time when the last enrolled participant completes their follow-up, the number of observed endpoints is a random variable. Assuming data collected through an interim timepoint, simulation-based estimation and inferential procedures in the standard right-censored failure time analysis framework are conducted for the distribution of the number of endpoints--in total as well as by treatment arm--at the end of the follow-up period. The future (i.e., yet unobserved) enrollment, endpoint, and dropout times are generated according to mechanisms specified in the simTrial() function in the seqDesign package. A Bayesian model for the endpoint rate, offering the option to specify a robust mixture prior distribution, is used for generating future data (see the vignette for details). Inference can be restricted to participants who received treatment according to the protocol and are observed to be at risk for the endpoint at a specified timepoint. Plotting functions are provided for graphical display of results.
