This package provides a comprehensive toolkit for clinical Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) informatics, built on tidyverse <https://tidyverse.tidyverse.org/> principles and making use of genotype list string (GL string, Mack et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/tan.15126>) for storing and computing HLA genotype data. Specific functionalities include: coercion of HLA data in tabular format to and from GL string; calculation of matching and mismatching in all directions, with multiple output formats; automatic formatting of HLA data for searching within a GL string; truncation of molecular HLA data to a specific number of fields; and reading HLA genotypes in HML files and extracting the GL string. This library is intended for research use. Any application making use of this package in a clinical setting will need to be independently validated according to local regulations.

Method for the calculation of copy numbers and calling of copy number alterations. The algorithm uses coverage data from amplicon sequencing of a sample cohort as input. The method includes significance assessment, correction for multiple testing and does not depend on normal DNA controls. Budczies (2016 Mar 15) <doi:10.18632/oncotarget.7451>.

Interactive dendrogram that enables the user to select and color clusters, to zoom and pan the dendrogram, and to visualize the clustered data not only in a built-in heat map, but also in GGobi interactive plots and user-supplied plots. This is a backport of Qt-based idendro (<https://github.com/tsieger/idendro>) to base R graphics and Tcl/Tk GUI.

In classification problems a monotone relation between some predictors and the classes may be assumed. In this package isoboost we propose new boosting algorithms, based on LogitBoost, that incorporate this isotonicity information, yielding more accurate and easily interpretable rules.

Analyzes raw abundance data from a cellular thermal shift experiment and calculates melt temperatures and melt shifts for each protein in the experiment. McCracken (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.12.30.522131>.

This package provides a voxel is a representation of a value on a regular, three-dimensional grid; it is the 3D equivalent of a 2D pixel. Voxel data can be visualised with this package using fixed viewpoint isometric cubes for each data point. This package also provides sample voxel data and tools for transforming the data.

This toolbox makes working with oxygen, carbon, and clumped isotope data reproducible and straightforward. Use it to quickly calculate isotope fractionation factors, and apply paleothermometry equations.

The Percentage of Importance Indice (Percentage_I.I.) bases in magnitudes, frequencies, and distributions of occurrence of an event (DEMOLIN-LEITE, 2021) <http://cjascience.com/index.php/CJAS/article/view/1009/1350>. This index can detect the key loss sources (L.S) and solution sources (S.S.), classifying them according to their importance in terms of loss or income gain, on the productive system. The Percentage_I.I. = [(ks1 x c1 x ds1)/SUM (ks1 x c1 x ds1) + (ks2 x c2 x ds2) + (ksn x cn x dsn)] x 100. key source (ks) is obtained using simple regression analysis and magnitude (abundance). Constancy (c) is SUM of occurrence of L.S. or S.S. on the samples (absence = 0 or presence = 1), and distribution source (ds) is obtained using chi-square test. This index has derivations: i.e., i) Loss estimates and solutions effectiveness and ii) Attention and non-attention levels (DEMOLIN-LEITE,2024) <DOI: 10.1590/1519-6984.253215>.

Density, spectral density, and regression estimation using infinite order flat-top kernels.

This package provides functions to import and handle infrared spectra (import from .csv and Thermo Galactic's .spc', baseline correction, binning, clipping, interpolating, smoothing, averaging, adding, subtracting, dividing, multiplying, atmospheric correction, tidyverse methods, plotting).

This package provides functions to clean and process international trade data into an international trade network (ITN) are provided. It then provides a set a functions to undertake analysis and plots of the ITN (extract the backbone, centrality, blockmodels, clustering). Examining the key players in the ITN and regional trade patterns.

This package provides methods for testing the equality of dependent intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) estimated using linear mixed-effects models. Several of the implemented approaches are based on the work of Donner and Zou (2002) <doi:10.1111/1467-9884.00324>.

This package provides tools for assessment and quantification of individual identity information in animal signals. This package accompanies a research article by Linhart et al. (2019) <doi:10.1101/546143>: "Measuring individual identity information in animal signals: Overview and performance of available identity metrics".

Network functionalities specialized for data generated from input-output tables.

Make empirical Bayes incidence curves from reported case data using a specified delay distribution.

This resource provides tools to create, compare, and post-process spatial isotope assignment models of animal origin. It generates probability-of-origin maps for individuals based on user-provided tissue and environment isotope values (e.g., as generated by IsoMAP, Bowen et al. [2013] <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12147>) using the framework established in Bowen et al. (2010) <doi:10.1146/annurev-earth-040809-152429>). The package isocat can then quantitatively compare and cluster these maps to group individuals by similar origin. It also includes techniques for applying four approaches (cumulative sum, odds ratio, quantile only, and quantile simulation) with which users can summarize geographic origins and probable distance traveled by individuals. Campbell et al. [2020] establishes several of the functions included in this package <doi:10.1515/ami-2020-0004>.

This package provides functions for analyzing multiple choice items. These analyses include the convertion of student response into binaty data (correct/incorrect), the computation of the number of corrected responses and grade for each subject, the calculation of item difficulty and discrimination, the computation of the frecuency and point-biserial correlation for each distractor and the graphical analysis of each item.

This package contains functions that allow Bayesian inference on a parameter of some widely-used exponential models. The functions can generate independent samples from the closed-form posterior distribution using the inverse stable prior. Inverse stable is a non-conjugate prior for a parameter of an exponential subclass of discrete and continuous data distributions (e.g. Poisson, exponential, inverse gamma, double exponential (Laplace), half-normal/half-Gaussian, etc.). The prior class provides flexibility in capturing a wide array of prior beliefs (right-skewed and left-skewed) as modulated by a parameter that is bounded in (0,1). The generated samples can be used to simulate the prior and posterior predictive distributions. More details can be found in Cahoy and Sedransk (2019) <doi:10.1007/s42519-018-0027-2>. The package can also be used as a teaching demo for introductory Bayesian courses.

Fits the (randomized drift) inverse Gaussian distribution to survival data. The model is described in Aalen OO, Borgan O, Gjessing HK. Survival and Event History Analysis. A Process Point of View. Springer, 2008. It is based on describing time to event as the barrier hitting time of a Wiener process, where drift towards the barrier has been randomized with a Gaussian distribution. The model allows covariates to influence starting values of the Wiener process and/or average drift towards a barrier, with a user-defined choice of link functions.

This package provides functions to generate incidence matrices and bipartite graphs that have (1) a fixed fill rate, (2) given marginal sums, (3) marginal sums that follow given distributions, or (4) represent bill sponsorships in the US Congress <doi:10.31219/osf.io/ectms>. It can also generate an incidence matrix from an adjacency matrix, or bipartite graph from a unipartite graph, via a social process mirroring team, group, or organization formation <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2204.13670>, or examine the space of binary matrices with fixed marginals.
