Circumplex models, which organize constructs in a circle around two underlying dimensions, are popular for studying interpersonal functioning, mood/affect, and vocational preferences/environments. This package provides tools for analyzing and visualizing circular data, including scoring functions for relevant instruments and a generalization of the bootstrapped structural summary method from Zimmermann & Wright (2017) <doi:10.1177/1073191115621795> and functions for creating publication-ready tables and figures from the results.
This package provides a general toolkit for drug target identification. We include functionality to reduce large graphs to subgraphs and prioritize nodes. In addition to being optimized for use with generic graphs, we also provides support to analyze protein-protein interactions networks from online repositories. For more details on core method, refer to Weaver et al. (2021) <https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/journal.pcbi.1008755>.
This package provides functions for the clustering of variables around Latent Variables, for 2-way or 3-way data. Each cluster of variables, which may be defined as a local or directional cluster, is associated with a latent variable. External variables measured on the same observations or/and additional information on the variables can be taken into account. A "noise" cluster or sparse latent variables can also be defined.
Synthesizing joint distributions from marginal densities, focusing on controlling key statistical properties such as correlation for continuous data, mutual information for categorical data, and inducing Simpson's Paradox. Generate datasets with specified correlation structures for continuous variables, adjust mutual information between categorical variables, and manipulate subgroup correlations to intentionally create Simpson's Paradox.

JASPAR is an open-access database containing manually curated, non-redundant transcription factor (TF) binding profiles for TFs across six taxonomic groups. In this 9th release, we expanded the CORE collection with 341 new profiles (148 for plants, 101 for vertebrates, 85 for urochordates, and 7 for insects), which corresponds to a 19% expansion over the previous release. To search thisdatabases, please use the package TFBSTools (>= 1.31.2).
The fit.models
function and its associated methods (coefficients, print, summary, plot, etc.) were originally provided in the robust
package to compare robustly and classically fitted model objects. The aim of the fit.models
package is to separate this fitted model object comparison functionality from the robust package and to extend it to support fitting methods (e.g., classical, robust, Bayesian, regularized, etc.) more generally.
Imputation of missing numerical outcomes for a longitudinal trial with protocol deviations. The package uses distinct treatment arm-based assumptions for the unobserved data, following the general algorithm of Carpenter, Roger, and Kenward (2013) <doi:10.1080/10543406.2013.834911>, and the causal model of White, Royes and Best (2020) <doi:10.1080/10543406.2019.1684308>. Sensitivity analyses to departures from these assumptions can be done by the Delta method of Roger. The program uses the same algorithm as the mimix Stata package written by Suzie Cro, with additional coding for the causal model and delta method. The reference-based methods are jump to reference (J2R), copy increments in reference (CIR), copy reference (CR), and the causal model, all of which must specify the reference treatment arm. Other methods are missing at random (MAR) and the last mean carried forward (LMCF). Individual-specific imputation methods (and their reference groups) can be specified.
This package provides a random-effects stochastic model that allows quick detection of clonal dominance events from clonal tracking data collected in gene therapy studies. Starting from the Ito-type equation describing the dynamics of cells duplication, death and differentiation at clonal level, we first considered its local linear approximation as the base model. The parameters of the base model, which are inferred using a maximum likelihood approach, are assumed to be shared across the clones. Although this assumption makes inference easier, in some cases it can be too restrictive and does not take into account possible scenarios of clonal dominance. Therefore we extended the base model by introducing random effects for the clones. In this extended formulation the dynamic parameters are estimated using a tailor-made expectation maximization algorithm. Further details on the methods can be found in L. Del Core et al., (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.05.31.494100>.
Implementations of several robust nonparametric two-sample tests for location or scale differences. The test statistics are based on robust location and scale estimators, e.g. the sample median or the Hodges-Lehmann estimators as described in Fried & Dehling (2011) <doi:10.1007/s10260-011-0164-1>. The p-values can be computed via the permutation principle, the randomization principle, or by using the asymptotic distributions of the test statistics under the null hypothesis, which ensures (approximate) distribution independence of the test decision. To test for a difference in scale, we apply the tests for location difference to transformed observations; see Fried (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2011.02.012>. Random noise on a small range can be added to the original observations in order to hold the significance level on data from discrete distributions. The location tests assume homoscedasticity and the scale tests require the location parameters to be zero.
