Sharing statistical methods or simulation frameworks through shiny applications often requires workflows for handling data. To help save and display simulation results, the postgresUI() and postgresServer() functions in mmints help with persistent data storage using a PostgreSQL database. The mmints package also offers data upload functionality through the csvUploadUI() and csvUploadServer() functions which allow users to upload data, view variables and their types, and edit variable types before fitting statistical models within the shiny application. These tools aim to enhance efficiency and user interaction in shiny based statistical and simulation applications.

Estimating GARCH-MIDAS (MIxed-DAta-Sampling) models (Engle, Ghysels, Sohn, 2013, <doi:10.1162/REST_a_00300>) and related statistical inference, accompanying the paper "Two are better than one: Volatility forecasting using multiplicative component GARCH models" by Conrad and Kleen (2020, <doi:10.1002/jae.2742>). The GARCH-MIDAS model decomposes the conditional variance of (daily) stock returns into a short- and long-term component, where the latter may depend on an exogenous covariate sampled at a lower frequency.

Use multi-state splitting to apply Adaptive-Dynamic PCA (ADPCA) to data generated from a continuous-time multivariate industrial or natural process. Employ PCA-based dimension reduction to extract linear combinations of relevant features, reducing computational burdens. For a description of ADPCA, see <doi:10.1007/s00477-016-1246-2>, the 2016 paper from Kazor et al. The multi-state application of ADPCA is from a manuscript under current revision entitled "Multi-State Multivariate Statistical Process Control" by Odom, Newhart, Cath, and Hering, and is expected to appear in Q1 of 2018.

Data smoothing with penalized splines is a popular method and is well established for one- or two-dimensional covariates. The extension to multiple covariates is straightforward but suffers from exponentially increasing memory requirements and computational complexity. This toolbox provides a matrix-free implementation of a conjugate gradient (CG) method for the regularized least squares problem resulting from tensor product B-spline smoothing with multivariate and scattered data. It further provides matrix-free preconditioned versions of the CG-algorithm where the user can choose between a simpler diagonal preconditioner and an advanced geometric multigrid preconditioner. The main advantage is that all algorithms are performed matrix-free and therefore require only a small amount of memory. For further detail see Siebenborn & Wagner (2021).

This package implements Mander & Thompson's (2010) <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2010.07.008> methods for two-stage designs optimal under the alternative hypothesis for phase II [cancer] trials. Also provides an implementation of Simon's (1989) <doi:10.1016/0197-2456(89)90015-9> original methodology and allows exploration of the operating characteristics of sub-optimal designs.

Facilitates creation and manipulation of metric graphs, such as street or river networks. Further facilitates operations and visualizations of data on metric graphs, and the creation of a large class of random fields and stochastic partial differential equations on such spaces. These random fields can be used for simulation, prediction and inference. In particular, linear mixed effects models including random field components can be fitted to data based on computationally efficient sparse matrix representations. Interfaces to the R packages INLA and inlabru are also provided, which facilitate working with Bayesian statistical models on metric graphs. The main references for the methods are Bolin, Simas and Wallin (2024) <doi:10.3150/23-BEJ1647>, Bolin, Kovacs, Kumar and Simas (2023) <doi:10.1090/mcom/3929> and Bolin, Simas and Wallin (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2304.03190> and <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2304.10372>.

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>.

Implementation of a framework for cluster analysis with selection of the final number of clusters and an optional variable selection procedure. The package is designed to integrate the results of multiple imputed datasets while accounting for the uncertainty that the imputations introduce in the final results. In addition, the package can also be used for a cluster analysis of the complete cases of a single dataset. The package also includes specific methods to summarize and plot the results. The methods are described in Basagana et al. (2013) <doi:10.1093/aje/kws289>.

This package provides a comprehensive range of facilities to perform umbrella reviews with stratification of the evidence in R. The package accomplishes this aim by building on three core functions that: (i) automatically perform all required calculations in an umbrella review (including but not limited to meta-analyses), (ii) stratify evidence according to various classification criteria, and (iii) generate a visual representation of the results. Note that if you are not familiar with R, the core features of this package are available from a web browser (<https://www.metaumbrella.org/>).

Estimates the precision of transdimensional Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) output, which is often used for Bayesian analysis of models with different dimensionality (e.g., model selection). Transdimensional MCMC (e.g., reversible jump MCMC) relies on sampling a discrete model-indicator variable to estimate the posterior model probabilities. If only few switches occur between the models, precision may be low and assessment based on the assumption of independent samples misleading. Based on the observed transition matrix of the indicator variable, the method of Heck, Overstall, Gronau, & Wagenmakers (2019, Statistics & Computing, 29, 631-643) <doi:10.1007/s11222-018-9828-0> draws posterior samples of the stationary distribution to (a) assess the uncertainty in the estimated posterior model probabilities and (b) estimate the effective sample size of the MCMC output.

Framework to facilitate patient subtyping with similarity network fusion and meta clustering. The similarity network fusion (SNF) algorithm was introduced by Wang et al. (2014) in <doi:10.1038/nmeth.2810>. SNF is a data integration approach that can transform high-dimensional and diverse data types into a single similarity network suitable for clustering with minimal loss of information from each initial data source. The meta clustering approach was introduced by Caruana et al. (2006) in <doi:10.1109/ICDM.2006.103>. Meta clustering involves generating a wide range of cluster solutions by adjusting clustering hyperparameters, then clustering the solutions themselves into a manageable number of qualitatively similar solutions, and finally characterizing representative solutions to find ones that are best for the user's specific context. This package provides a framework to easily transform multi-modal data into a wide range of similarity network fusion-derived cluster solutions as well as to visualize, characterize, and validate those solutions. Core package functionality includes easy customization of distance metrics, clustering algorithms, and SNF hyperparameters to generate diverse clustering solutions; calculation and plotting of associations between features, between patients, and between cluster solutions; and standard cluster validation approaches including resampled measures of cluster stability, standard metrics of cluster quality, and label propagation to evaluate generalizability in unseen data. Associated vignettes guide the user through using the package to identify patient subtypes while adhering to best practices for unsupervised learning.

Classify missing data as missing completely at random (MCAR), missing at random (MAR), or missing not at random (MNAR). This step is required before handling missing data (e.g. mean imputation) so that bias is not introduced. See Little (1988) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1988.10478722> for the statistical rationale for the methods used.

This package provides a set of functions to manage data shared on a MOLGENIS Armadillo server.
