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.

For a detailed description of the method see Cule, Samworth and Stewart (2010, Journal of Royal Statistical Society Series B, <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2010.00753.x>).

This package performs extreme value analysis at multiple locations using functions from the evd package. Supports both point-based and gridded input data using the terra package, enabling flexible looping across spatial datasets for batch processing of generalised extreme value, Gumbel fits.

Constructs genotype x environment interaction (GxE) models where G is a weighted sum of genetic variants (genetic score) and E is a weighted sum of environments (environmental score) using the alternating optimization algorithm by Jolicoeur-Martineau et al. (2017) <arXiv:1703.08111>. This approach has greatly enhanced predictive power over traditional GxE models which include only a single genetic variant and a single environmental exposure. Although this approach was originally made for GxE modelling, it is flexible and does not require the use of genetic and environmental variables. It can also handle more than 2 latent variables (rather than just G and E) and 3-way interactions or more. The LEGIT model produces highly interpretable results and is very parameter-efficient thus it can even be used with small sample sizes (n < 250). Tools to determine the type of interaction (vantage sensitivity, diathesis-stress or differential susceptibility), with any number of genetic variants or environments, are available <arXiv:1712.04058>. The software can now produce mixed-effects LEGIT models through the lme4 package.

Log-analytic methods intended for testing multiplicative effects.

Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data sets by Lievens et al. (2012) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkr775>. Provides one single tabular tidy data set in long format, encompassing three dilution series, targeted against the soybean Lectin endogene. Each dilution series was assayed in one of the following PCR-efficiency-modifying conditions: no PCR inhibition, inhibition by isopropanol and inhibition by tannic acid. The inhibitors were co-diluted along with the dilution series. The co-dilution series consists of a five-point, five-fold serial dilution. For each concentration there are 18 replicates. Each amplification curve is 60 cycles long. Original raw data file is available at the Supplementary Data section at Nucleic Acids Research Online <doi:10.1093/nar/gkr775>.

Create small multiples of several leaflet web maps with (optional) synchronised panning and zooming control. When syncing is enabled all maps respond to mouse actions on one map. This allows side-by-side comparisons of different attributes of the same geometries. Syncing can be adjusted so that any combination of maps can be synchronised.

This package provides functions that allow for convenient working with vector space models of semantics/distributional semantic models/word embeddings. Originally built for LSA models (hence the name), but can be used for all such vector-based models. For actually building a vector semantic space, use the package lsa or other specialized software. Downloadable semantic spaces can be found at <https://sites.google.com/site/fritzgntr/software-resources>.

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.

Combines Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and Bayesian multinomial time series methods in a two-stage analysis to quantify dynamics in high-dimensional temporal data. LDA decomposes multivariate data into lower-dimension latent groupings, whose relative proportions are modeled using generalized Bayesian time series models that include abrupt changepoints and smooth dynamics.
