This package implements an Integer Programming-based method for optimising genetic gain in polyclonal selection, where the goal is to select a group of genotypes that jointly meet multi-trait selection criteria. The method uses predictors of genotypic effects obtained from the fitting of mixed models. Its application is demonstrated with grapevine data, but is applicable to other species and breeding contexts. For more details see Surgy et al. (2025) <doi:10.1007/s00122-025-04885-0>.

Background - Traditional gene set enrichment analyses are typically limited to a few ontologies and do not account for the interdependence of gene sets or terms, resulting in overcorrected p-values. To address these challenges, we introduce mulea, an R package offering comprehensive overrepresentation and functional enrichment analysis. Results - mulea employs a progressive empirical false discovery rate (eFDR) method, specifically designed for interconnected biological data, to accurately identify significant terms within diverse ontologies. mulea expands beyond traditional tools by incorporating a wide range of ontologies, encompassing Gene Ontology, pathways, regulatory elements, genomic locations, and protein domains. This flexibility enables researchers to tailor enrichment analysis to their specific questions, such as identifying enriched transcriptional regulators in gene expression data or overrepresented protein domains in protein sets. To facilitate seamless analysis, mulea provides gene sets (in standardised GMT format) for 27 model organisms, covering 22 ontology types from 16 databases and various identifiers resulting in almost 900 files. Additionally, the muleaData ExperimentData Bioconductor package simplifies access to these pre-defined ontologies. Finally, mulea's architecture allows for easy integration of user-defined ontologies, or GMT files from external sources (e.g., MSigDB or Enrichr), expanding its applicability across diverse research areas. Conclusions - mulea is distributed as a CRAN R package. It offers researchers a powerful and flexible toolkit for functional enrichment analysis, addressing limitations of traditional tools with its progressive eFDR and by supporting a variety of ontologies. Overall, mulea fosters the exploration of diverse biological questions across various model organisms.

Nonparametric survival function estimates and semiparametric regression for the multivariate failure time data with right-censoring. For nonparametric survival function estimates, the Volterra, Dabrowska, and Prentice-Cai estimates for bivariate failure time data may be computed as well as the Dabrowska estimate for the trivariate failure time data. Bivariate marginal hazard rate regression can be fitted for the bivariate failure time data. Functions are also provided to compute (bootstrap) confidence intervals and plot the estimates of the bivariate survival function.

This package provides a tool for computing probabilities and other quantities that are relevant in selecting performance criteria for discrete trial training. The main function, miebl(), computes Bayesian and frequentist probabilities and bounds for each of n possible performance criterion choices when attempting to determine a student's true mastery level by counting their number of successful attempts at displaying learning among n trials. The reporting function miebl_re() takes output from miebl() and prepares it into a brief report for a specific criterion. miebl_cp() combines 2 to 5 distributions of true mastery level given performance criterion in one plot for comparison.

This package provides functions and wrappers for using the Multiple Aggregation Prediction Algorithm (MAPA) for time series forecasting. MAPA models and forecasts time series at multiple temporal aggregation levels, thus strengthening and attenuating the various time series components for better holistic estimation of its structure.

An implementation of the alternating expectation conditional maximization (AECM) algorithm for matrix-variate variance gamma (MVVG) and normal-inverse Gaussian (MVNIG) linear models. These models are designed for settings of multivariate analysis with clustered non-uniform observations and correlated responses. The package includes fitting and prediction functions for both models, and an example dataset from a periodontal on Gullah-speaking African Americans, with responses in gaad_res, and covariates in gaad_cov. For more details on the matrix-variate distributions used, see Gallaugher & McNicholas (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2018.08.012>.

We implement a surrogate modeling algorithm to guide simulation-based sample size planning. The method is described in detail in our paper (Zimmer & Debelak (2023) <doi:10.1037/met0000611>).

Statistical methods to match feature vectors between multiple datasets in a one-to-one fashion. Given a fixed number of classes/distributions, for each unit, exactly one vector of each class is observed without label. The goal is to label the feature vectors using each label exactly once so to produce the best match across datasets, e.g. by minimizing the variability within classes. Statistical solutions based on empirical loss functions and probabilistic modeling are provided. The Gurobi software and its R interface package are required for one of the package functions (match.2x()) and can be obtained at <https://www.gurobi.com/> (free academic license).
