Computes the posterior model probabilities for standard meta-analysis models (null model vs. alternative model assuming either fixed- or random-effects, respectively). These posterior probabilities are used to estimate the overall mean effect size as the weighted average of the mean effect size estimates of the random- and fixed-effect model as proposed by Gronau, Van Erp, Heck, Cesario, Jonas, & Wagenmakers (2017, <doi:10.1080/23743603.2017.1326760>). The user can define a wide range of non-informative or informative priors for the mean effect size and the heterogeneity coefficient. Moreover, using pre-compiled Stan models, meta-analysis with continuous and discrete moderators with Jeffreys-Zellner-Siow (JZS) priors can be fitted and tested. This allows to compute Bayes factors and perform Bayesian model averaging across random- and fixed-effects meta-analysis with and without moderators. For a primer on Bayesian model-averaged meta-analysis, see Gronau, Heck, Berkhout, Haaf, & Wagenmakers (2021, <doi:10.1177/25152459211031256>).

Frequently one needs a convenient way to build and tune several models in one go.The goal is to provide a number of machine learning convenience functions. It provides the ability to build, tune and obtain predictions of several models in one function. The models are built using functions from caret with easier to read syntax.

Correct identification and handling of missing data is one of the most important steps in any analysis. To aid this process, mde provides a very easy to use yet robust framework to quickly get an idea of where the missing data lies and therefore find the most appropriate action to take. Graham WJ (2009) <doi:10.1146/annurev.psych.58.110405.085530>.

This package provides methods to estimate serial intervals and time-varying case reproduction numbers from infectious disease outbreak data. Serial intervals measure the time between symptom onset in linked transmission pairs, while case reproduction numbers quantify how many secondary cases each infected individual generates over time. These parameters are essential for understanding transmission dynamics, evaluating control measures, and informing public health responses. The package implements the maximum likelihood framework from Vink et al. (2014) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwu209> for serial interval estimation and the retrospective method from Wallinga & Lipsitch (2007) <doi:10.1098/rspb.2006.3754> for reproduction number estimation. Originally developed for scabies transmission analysis but applicable to other infectious diseases including influenza, COVID-19, and emerging pathogens. Designed for epidemiologists, public health researchers, and infectious disease modelers working with outbreak surveillance data.

Alternative implementation of the beautiful MissForest algorithm used to impute mixed-type data sets by chaining random forests, introduced by Stekhoven, D.J. and Buehlmann, P. (2012) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btr597>. Under the hood, it uses the lightning fast random forest package ranger'. Between the iterative model fitting, we offer the option of using predictive mean matching. This firstly avoids imputation with values not already present in the original data (like a value 0.3334 in 0-1 coded variable). Secondly, predictive mean matching tries to raise the variance in the resulting conditional distributions to a realistic level. This would allow, e.g., to do multiple imputation when repeating the call to missRanger(). Out-of-sample application is supported as well.

Estimation of the survivor function for interval censored time-to-event data subject to misclassification using nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation, implementing the methods of Titman (2017) <doi:10.1007/s11222-016-9705-7>. Misclassification probabilities can either be specified as fixed or estimated. Models with time dependent misclassification may also be fitted.

This package provides a user-friendly way for the analysis of multinomial processing tree (MPT) models (e.g., Riefer, D. M., and Batchelder, W. H. [1988]. Multinomial modeling and the measurement of cognitive processes. Psychological Review, 95, 318-339) for single and multiple datasets. The main functions perform model fitting and model selection. Model selection can be done using AIC, BIC, or the Fisher Information Approximation (FIA) a measure based on the Minimum Description Length (MDL) framework. The model and restrictions can be specified in external files or within an R script in an intuitive syntax or using the context-free language for MPTs. The classical .EQN file format for model files is also supported. Besides MPTs, this package can fit a wide variety of other cognitive models such as SDT models (see fit.model). It also supports multicore fitting and FIA calculation (using the snowfall package), can generate or bootstrap data for simulations, and plot predicted versus observed data.

This package provides a set of functions which use the Expectation Maximisation (EM) algorithm (Dempster, A. P., Laird, N. M., and Rubin, D. B. (1977) <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1977.tb01600.x> Maximum likelihood from incomplete data via the EM algorithm, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, 39(1), 1--22) to take a finite mixture model approach to clustering. The package is designed to cluster multivariate data that have categorical and continuous variables and that possibly contain missing values. The method is described in Hunt, L. and Jorgensen, M. (1999) <doi:10.1111/1467-842X.00071> Australian & New Zealand Journal of Statistics 41(2), 153--171 and Hunt, L. and Jorgensen, M. (2003) <doi:10.1016/S0167-9473(02)00190-1> Mixture model clustering for mixed data with missing information, Computational Statistics & Data Analysis, 41(3-4), 429--440.

Convenient wrapper functions for the analysis of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) spectra data in order to select only representative spectra (also called cherry-pick). The package covers the preprocessing and dereplication steps (based on Strejcek, Smrhova, Junkova and Uhlik (2018) <doi:10.3389/fmicb.2018.01294>) needed to cluster MALDI-TOF spectra before the final cherry-picking step. It enables the easy exclusion of spectra and/or clusters to accommodate complex cherry-picking strategies. Alternatively, cherry-picking using taxonomic identification MALDI-TOF data is made easy with functions to import inconsistently formatted reports.

Metadynamics is a state of the art biomolecular simulation technique. Plumed Tribello, G.A. et al. (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2013.09.018> program makes it possible to perform metadynamics using various simulation codes. The results of metadynamics done in Plumed can be analyzed by metadynminer'. The package metadynminer reads 1D and 2D metadynamics hills files from Plumed package. It uses a fast algorithm by Hosek, P. and Spiwok, V. (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.cpc.2015.08.037> to calculate a free energy surface from hills. Minima can be located and plotted on the free energy surface. Transition states can be analyzed by Nudged Elastic Band method by Henkelman, G. and Jonsson, H. (2000) <doi:10.1063/1.1323224>. Free energy surfaces, minima and transition paths can be plotted to produce publication quality images.
