An interactive Shiny dashboard for visualizing and exploring key metrics related to HIV/AIDS, including prevalence, incidence, mortality, and treatment coverage. The dashboard is designed to work with a dataset containing specific columns with standardized names. These columns must be present in the input data for the app to function properly: year: Numeric year of the data (e.g. 2010, 2021); sex: Gender classification (e.g. Male, Female); age_group: Age bracket (e.g. 15â 24, 25â 34); hiv_prevalence: Estimated HIV prevalence percentage; hiv_incidence: Number of new HIV cases per year; aids_deaths: Total AIDS-related deaths; plhiv: Estimated number of people living with HIV; art_coverage: Percentage receiving antiretroviral therapy (ART); testing_coverage: HIV testing services coverage; causes: Description of likely HIV transmission cause (e.g. unprotected sex, drug use). The dataset structure must strictly follow this column naming convention for the dashboard to render correctly.

This package provides a histogram slider input binding for use in Shiny'. Currently supports creating histograms from numeric, date, and date-time vectors.

Computes the expectation of the number of transmissions and receptions considering a Hop-by-Hop transport model with limited number of retransmissions per packet. It provides the theoretical results shown in Palma et. al.(2016) <DOI:10.1109/TLA.2016.7555237> and also estimated values based on Monte Carlo simulations. It is also possible to consider random data and ACK probabilities.

Predict hatch and emergence timing for a wide range of wild fishes using the effective value framework (Sparks et al., (2019) <DOI:10.1139/cjfas-2017-0468>). hatchR offers users access to established phenological models and the flexibility to incorporate custom parameterizations using external datasets.

Estimation procedures and goodness-of-fit test for several Markov regime switching models and mixtures of bivariate copula models. The goodness-of-fit test is based on a Cramer-von Mises statistic and uses Rosenblatt's transform and parametric bootstrap to estimate the p-value. The proposed methodologies are described in Nasri, Remillard and Thioub (2020) <doi:10.1002/cjs.11534>.

We provide a stage-wise selection method using genetic algorithms, designed to efficiently identify main and two-way interactions within high-dimensional linear regression models. Additionally, it implements simulated annealing algorithm during the mutation process. The relevant paper can be found at: Ye, C.,and Yang,Y. (2019) <doi:10.1109/TIT.2019.2913417>.

This package provides a two-step double-robust method to estimate the conditional average treatment effects (CATE) with potentially high-dimensional covariate(s). In the first stage, the nuisance functions necessary for identifying CATE are estimated by machine learning methods, allowing the number of covariates to be comparable to or larger than the sample size. The second stage consists of a low-dimensional local linear regression, reducing CATE to a function of the covariate(s) of interest. The CATE estimator implemented in this package not only allows for high-dimensional data, but also has the â double robustnessâ property: either the model for the propensity score or the models for the conditional means of the potential outcomes are allowed to be misspecified (but not both). This package is based on the paper by Fan et al., "Estimation of Conditional Average Treatment Effects With High-Dimensional Data" (2022), Journal of Business & Economic Statistics <doi:10.1080/07350015.2020.1811102>.

Vapor pressure, relative humidity, absolute humidity, specific humidity, and mixing ratio are commonly used water vapor measures in meteorology. This R package provides functions for calculating saturation vapor pressure (hPa), partial water vapor pressure (Pa), relative humidity (%), absolute humidity (kg/m^3), specific humidity (kg/kg), and mixing ratio (kg/kg) from temperature (K) and dew point (K). Conversion functions between humidity measures are also provided.

Pre-made models that can be rapidly tailored to various chemicals and species using chemical-specific in vitro data and physiological information. These tools allow incorporation of chemical toxicokinetics ("TK") and in vitro-in vivo extrapolation ("IVIVE") into bioinformatics, as described by Pearce et al. (2017) (<doi:10.18637/jss.v079.i04>). Chemical-specific in vitro data characterizing toxicokinetics have been obtained from relatively high-throughput experiments. The chemical-independent ("generic") physiologically-based ("PBTK") and empirical (for example, one compartment) "TK" models included here can be parameterized with in vitro data or in silico predictions which are provided for thousands of chemicals, multiple exposure routes, and various species. High throughput toxicokinetics ("HTTK") is the combination of in vitro data and generic models. We establish the expected accuracy of HTTK for chemicals without in vivo data through statistical evaluation of HTTK predictions for chemicals where in vivo data do exist. The models are systems of ordinary differential equations that are developed in MCSim and solved using compiled (C-based) code for speed. A Monte Carlo sampler is included for simulating human biological variability (Ring et al., 2017 <doi:10.1016/j.envint.2017.06.004>) and propagating parameter uncertainty (Wambaugh et al., 2019 <doi:10.1093/toxsci/kfz205>). Empirically calibrated methods are included for predicting tissue:plasma partition coefficients and volume of distribution (Pearce et al., 2017 <doi:10.1007/s10928-017-9548-7>). These functions and data provide a set of tools for using IVIVE to convert concentrations from high-throughput screening experiments (for example, Tox21, ToxCast) to real-world exposures via reverse dosimetry (also known as "RTK") (Wetmore et al., 2015 <doi:10.1093/toxsci/kfv171>).

Calculates the interval estimates for the parameters of linear models with heteroscedastic regression using bootstrap - (Wild Bootstrap) and double bootstrap-t (Wild Bootstrap). It is also possible to calculate confidence intervals using the percentile bootstrap and percentile bootstrap double. The package can calculate consistent estimates of the covariance matrix of the parameters of linear regression models with heteroscedasticity of unknown form. The package also provides a function to consistently calculate the covariance matrix of the parameters of linear models with heteroscedasticity of unknown form. The bootstrap methods exported by the package are based on the master's thesis of the first author, available at <https://raw.githubusercontent.com/prdm0/hcci/master/references/dissertacao_mestrado.pdf>. The hcci package in previous versions was cited in the book VINOD, Hrishikesh D. Hands-on Intermediate Econometrics Using R: Templates for Learning Quantitative Methods and R Software. 2022, p. 441, ISBN 978-981-125-617-2 (hardcover). The simple bootstrap schemes are based on the works of Cribari-Neto F and Lima M. G. (2009) <doi:10.1080/00949650801935327>, while the double bootstrap schemes for the parameters that index the linear models with heteroscedasticity of unknown form are based on the works of Beran (1987) <doi:10.2307/2336685>. The use of bootstrap for the calculation of interval estimates in regression models with heteroscedasticity of unknown form from a weighting of the residuals was proposed by Wu (1986) <doi:10.1214/aos/1176350142>. This bootstrap scheme is known as weighted or wild bootstrap.

Used for predicting a genotype's allelic state at a specific locus/QTL/gene. This is accomplished by using both a genotype matrix and a separate file which has categorizations about loci/QTL/genes of interest for the individuals in the genotypic matrix. A training population can be created from a panel of individuals who have been previously screened for specific loci/QTL/genes, and this previous screening could be summarized into a category. Using the categorization of individuals which have been genotyped using a genome wide marker platform, a model can be trained to predict what category (haplotype) an individual belongs in based on their genetic sequence in the region associated with the locus/QTL/gene. These trained models can then be used to predict the haplotype of a locus/QTL/gene for individuals which have been genotyped with a genome wide platform yet not genotyped for the specific locus/QTL/gene. This package is based off work done by Winn et al 2021. For more specific information on this method, refer to <doi:10.1007/s00122-022-04178-w>.

High level functions for hyperplane fitting (hyper.fit()) and visualising (hyper.plot2d() / hyper.plot3d()). In simple terms this allows the user to produce robust 1D linear fits for 2D x vs y type data, and robust 2D plane fits to 3D x vs y vs z type data. This hyperplane fitting works generically for any N-1 hyperplane model being fit to a N dimension dataset. All fits include intrinsic scatter in the generative model orthogonal to the hyperplane.

This package provides functions for basic hydraulic calculations related to water flow in circular pipes both flowing full (under pressure), and partially full (gravity flow), and trapezoidal open channels. For pressure flow this includes friction loss calculations by solving the Darcy-Weisbach equation for head loss, flow or diameter, plotting a Moody diagram, matching a pump characteristic curve to a system curve, and solving for flows in a pipe network using the Hardy-Cross method. The Darcy-Weisbach friction factor is calculated using the Colebrook (or Colebrook-White equation), the basis of the Moody diagram, the original citation being Colebrook (1939) <doi:10.1680/ijoti.1939.13150>. For gravity flow, the Manning equation is used, again solving for missing parameters. The derivation of and solutions using the Darcy-Weisbach equation and the Manning equation are outlined in many fluid mechanics texts such as Finnemore and Maurer (2024, ISBN:978-1-264-78729-6). Some gradually- and rapidly-varied flow functions are included. For the Manning equation solutions, this package uses modifications of original code from the iemisc package by Irucka Embry.

The hybrid model likelihood as described by Ramos-Goñi et al. (2017) <doi:10.1097/MLR.0000000000000283> is implemented and and embedded in a latent class framework. The package is based on flexmix and among others contains an M-step-driver as described by Leisch (2004) <doi:10.18637/jss.v011.i08>. Users can, for example, estimate latent classes for EQ-5D value sets and address preference heterogeneity. Both uncensored and censored data are supported. Furthermore, heteroscedasticity can be taken into account. It is possible to control for different covariates on the continuous and dichotomous data and start values can differ between the expected latent classes.

This code provides a method to fit the hidden compact representation model as well as to identify the causal direction on discrete data. We implement an effective solution to recover the above hidden compact representation under the likelihood framework. Please see the Causal Discovery from Discrete Data using Hidden Compact Representation from NIPS 2018 by Ruichu Cai, Jie Qiao, Kun Zhang, Zhenjie Zhang and Zhifeng Hao (2018) <https://nips.cc/Conferences/2018/Schedule?showEvent=11274> for a description of some of our methods.

Inference concerning equilibrium and random mating in autopolyploids. Methods are available to test for equilibrium and random mating at any even ploidy level (>2) in the presence of double reduction at biallelic loci. For autopolyploid populations in equilibrium, methods are available to estimate the degree of double reduction. We also provide functions to calculate genotype frequencies at equilibrium, or after one or several rounds of random mating, given rates of double reduction. The main function is hwefit().
