This package provides a wrapper around the LIBLINEAR C/C++ library for machine learning (available at <https://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/liblinear/>). LIBLINEAR is a simple library for solving large-scale regularized linear classification and regression. It currently supports L2-regularized classification (such as logistic regression, L2-loss linear SVM and L1-loss linear SVM) as well as L1-regularized classification (such as L2-loss linear SVM and logistic regression) and L2-regularized support vector regression (with L1- or L2-loss). The main features of LiblineaR include multi-class classification (one-vs-the rest, and Crammer & Singer method), cross validation for model selection, probability estimates (logistic regression only) or weights for unbalanced data. The estimation of the models is particularly fast as compared to other libraries.

It allows to cluster communication networks using the Stochastic Topic Block Model <doi:10.1007/s11222-016-9713-7> by posting jobs through the API of the linkage.fr server, which implements the clustering method. The package also allows to visualize the clustering results returned by the server.

L-systems or Lindenmayer systems are parallel rewriting systems which can be used to simulate biological forms and certain kinds of fractals. Briefly, in an L-system a series of symbols in a string are replaced iteratively according to rules to give a more complex string. Eventually, the symbols are translated into turtle graphics for plotting. Wikipedia has a very good introduction: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-system This package provides basic functions for exploring L-systems.

This package provides a classification tree method that uses Uncorrelated Linear Discriminant Analysis (ULDA) for variable selection, split determination, and model fitting in terminal nodes. It automatically handles missing values and offers visualization tools. For more details, see Wang (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.23147>.

Suite of R functions for the estimation of the local false discovery rate (LFDR) using Type II maximum likelihood estimation (MLE).

Bayesian population size estimation using non parametric latent-class models.

Managing and exploring parameter estimation results derived from Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) using the likelihood package. It provides functions for organizing, visualizing, and summarizing MLE outcomes, streamlining statistical analysis workflows. By improving interpretation and facilitating model evaluation, it helps users gain deeper insights into parameter estimation and model fitting, making MLE result exploration more efficient and accessible. See Goffe et al. (1994) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(94)90038-8> for details on MLE, and Canham and Uriarte (2006) <doi:10.1890/04-0657> for application of MLE using likelihood'.

The leader clustering algorithm provides a means for clustering a set of data points. Unlike many other clustering algorithms it does not require the user to specify the number of clusters, but instead requires the approximate radius of a cluster as its primary tuning parameter. The package provides a fast implementation of this algorithm in n-dimensions using Lp-distances (with special cases for p=1,2, and infinity) as well as for spatial data using the Haversine formula, which takes latitude/longitude pairs as inputs and clusters based on great circle distances.

This package implements novel nonparametric approaches to address biases and confounding when comparing treatments or exposures in observational studies of outcomes. While designed and appropriate for use in studies involving medicine and the life sciences, the package can be used in other situations involving outcomes with multiple confounders. The package implements a family of methods for non-parametric bias correction when comparing treatments in observational studies, including survival analysis settings, where competing risks and/or censoring may be present. The approach extends to bias-corrected personalized predictions of treatment outcome differences, and analysis of heterogeneity of treatment effect-sizes across patient subgroups.

Implementation of the Swiss Confederation's standard analysis model for salary analyses <www.ebg.admin.ch/en/equal-pay-analysis-with-logib> in R. The analysis is run at company-level and the model is intended for medium-sized and large companies. It can technically be used with 50 or more employees (apprentices, trainees/interns and expats are not included in the analysis). Employees with at least 100 employees are required by the Gender Equality Act to conduct an equal pay analysis. This package allows users to run the equal salary analysis in R, providing additional transparency with respect to the methodology and simple automation possibilities.

Bootstrap routines for nested linear mixed effects models fit using either lme4 or nlme'. The provided bootstrap() function implements the parametric, residual, cases, random effect block (REB), and wild bootstrap procedures.

Fast implementations to compute the genetic covariance matrix, the Jaccard similarity matrix, the s-matrix (the weighted Jaccard similarity matrix), and the (classic or robust) genomic relationship matrix of a (dense or sparse) input matrix (see Hahn, Lutz, Hecker, Prokopenko, Cho, Silverman, Weiss, and Lange (2020) <doi:10.1002/gepi.22356>). Full support for sparse matrices from the R-package Matrix'.
