Machine learning method specifically designed for pre-miRNA prediction. It takes advantage of unlabeled sequences to improve the prediction rates even when there are just a few positive examples, when the negative examples are unreliable or are not good representatives of its class. Furthermore, the method can automatically search for negative examples if the user is unable to provide them. MiRNAss can find a good boundary to divide the pre-miRNAs from other groups of sequences; it automatically optimizes the threshold that defines the classes boundaries, and thus, it is robust to high class imbalance. Each step of the method is scalable and can handle large volumes of data.

This package performs the execution of the main procedures of multiple comparisons in the literature, Scott-Knott (1974) <http://www.jstor.org/stable/2529204>, Batista (2016) <http://repositorio.ufla.br/jspui/handle/1/11466>, including graphic representations and export to different extensions of its results.

This will assist the user in making the decision for the chosen test.

Three algorithms for estimating a Markov random field structure.Two of them are an exact version and a simulated annealing version of a penalized maximum conditional likelihood method similar to the Bayesian Information Criterion. These algorithm are described in Frondana (2016) <doi:10.11606/T.45.2018.tde-02022018-151123>.The third one is a greedy algorithm, described in Bresler (2015) <doi:10.1145/2746539.2746631).

Maximum entropy density based dependent data bootstrap. An algorithm is provided to create a population of time series (ensemble) without assuming stationarity.

Companion package of Carrion-i-Silvestre & Sansó (2023): "Generalized Extreme Value Approximation to the CUMSUMQ Test for Constant Unconditional Variance in Heavy-Tailed Time Series". It implements the Modified Iterative Cumulative Sum of Squares Algorithm, which is an extension of the Iterative Cumulative Sum of Squares (ICSS) Algorithm of Inclan and Tiao (1994), and it checks for changes in the unconditional variance of a time series controlling for the tail index of the underlying distribution. The fourth order moment is estimated non-parametrically to avoid the size problems when the innovations are non-Gaussian (see, Sansó et al., 2004). Critical values and p-values are generated using a Generalized Extreme Value distribution approach.

Using this package, one can determine the minimum sample size required so that the mean square error of the sample mean and the population mean of a distribution becomes less than some pre-determined epsilon, i.e. it helps the user to determine the minimum sample size required to attain the pre-fixed precision level by minimizing the difference between the sample mean and population mean.

Fits multiple variable mixtures of various parametric proportional hazard models using the EM-Algorithm. Proportionality restrictions can be imposed on the latent groups and/or on the variables. Several survival distributions can be specified. Missing values and censored values are allowed. Independence is assumed over the single variables.

An implementation for the multi-task Gaussian processes with common mean framework. Two main algorithms, called Magma and MagmaClust', are available to perform predictions for supervised learning problems, in particular for time series or any functional/continuous data applications. The corresponding articles has been respectively proposed by Arthur Leroy, Pierre Latouche, Benjamin Guedj and Servane Gey (2022) <doi:10.1007/s10994-022-06172-1>, and Arthur Leroy, Pierre Latouche, Benjamin Guedj and Servane Gey (2023) <https://jmlr.org/papers/v24/20-1321.html>. Theses approaches leverage the learning of cluster-specific mean processes, which are common across similar tasks, to provide enhanced prediction performances (even far from data) at a linear computational cost (in the number of tasks). MagmaClust is a generalisation of Magma where the tasks are simultaneously clustered into groups, each being associated to a specific mean process. User-oriented functions in the package are decomposed into training, prediction and plotting functions. Some basic features (classic kernels, training, prediction) of standard Gaussian processes are also implemented.

Traditional and spatial capture-mark-recapture analysis with multiple non-invasive marks. The models implemented in multimark combine encounter history data arising from two different non-invasive "marks", such as images of left-sided and right-sided pelage patterns of bilaterally asymmetrical species, to estimate abundance and related demographic parameters while accounting for imperfect detection. Bayesian models are specified using simple formulae and fitted using Markov chain Monte Carlo. Addressing deficiencies in currently available software, multimark also provides a user-friendly interface for performing Bayesian multimodel inference using non-spatial or spatial capture-recapture data consisting of a single conventional mark or multiple non-invasive marks. See McClintock (2015) <doi:10.1002/ece3.1676> and Maronde et al. (2020) <doi:10.1002/ece3.6990>.
