Estimation of multivariate normal (MVN) and student-t data of arbitrary dimension where the pattern of missing data is monotone. See Pantaleo and Gramacy (2010) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.0907.2135>. Through the use of parsimonious/shrinkage regressions (plsr, pcr, lasso, ridge, etc.), where standard regressions fail, the package can handle a nearly arbitrary amount of missing data. The current version supports maximum likelihood inference and a full Bayesian approach employing scale-mixtures for Gibbs sampling. Monotone data augmentation extends this Bayesian approach to arbitrary missingness patterns. A fully functional standalone interface to the Bayesian lasso (from Park & Casella), Normal-Gamma (from Griffin & Brown), Horseshoe (from Carvalho, Polson, & Scott), and ridge regression with model selection via Reversible Jump, and student-t errors (from Geweke) is also provided.

For single tensor data, any matrix factorization method can be specified the matricised tensor in each dimension by Multi-way Component Analysis (MWCA). An originally extended MWCA is also implemented to specify and decompose multiple matrices and tensors simultaneously (CoupledMWCA). See the reference section of GitHub README.md <https://github.com/rikenbit/mwTensor>, for details of the methods.

Large-scale matrix-variate data have been widely observed nowadays in various research areas such as finance, signal processing and medical imaging. Modelling matrix-valued data by matrix-elliptical family not only provides a flexible way to handle heavy-tail property and tail dependencies, but also maintains the intrinsic row and column structure of random matrices. We proposed a new tool named matrix Kendall's tau which is efficient for analyzing random elliptical matrices. By applying this new type of Kendellâ s tau to the matrix elliptical factor model, we propose a Matrix-type Robust Two-Step (MRTS) method to estimate the loading and factor spaces. See the details in He at al. (2022) <arXiv:2207.09633>. In this package, we provide the algorithms for calculating sample matrix Kendall's tau, the MRTS method and the Matrix Kendall's tau Eigenvalue-Ratio (MKER) method which is used for determining the number of factors.

BEAST2 (<https://www.beast2.org>) is a widely used Bayesian phylogenetic tool, that uses DNA/RNA/protein data and many model priors to create a posterior of jointly estimated phylogenies and parameters. mcbette allows to do a Bayesian model comparison over some site and clock models, using babette (<https://github.com/ropensci/babette/>).

This package implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP). Users can start R'-based servers, serving functions as tools for large language models to call before responding to the user in MCP-compatible apps like Claude Desktop and Claude Code', with options to run those tools inside of interactive R sessions. On the other end, when R is the client via the ellmer package, users can register tools from third-party MCP servers to integrate additional context into chats.

Multiscale Graph Correlation (MGC) is a framework developed by Vogelstein et al. (2019) <DOI:10.7554/eLife.41690> that extends global correlation procedures to be multiscale; consequently, MGC tests typically require far fewer samples than existing methods for a wide variety of dependence structures and dimensionalities, while maintaining computational efficiency. Moreover, MGC provides a simple and elegant multiscale characterization of the potentially complex latent geometry underlying the relationship.

Flexible implementation of a structural change point detection algorithm for multivariate time series. It authorizes inclusion of trends, exogenous variables, and break test on the intercept or on the full vector autoregression system. Bai, Lumsdaine, and Stock (1998) <doi:10.1111/1467-937X.00051>.

This package provides a modified function bic.glm of the BMA package that can be applied to multinomial logit (MNL) data. The data is converted to binary logit using the Begg & Gray approximation. The package also contains functions for maximum likelihood estimation of MNL.

An implementation of the Monte Carlo techniques described in details by Dufour (2006) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2005.06.007> and Dufour and Khalaf (2007) <doi:10.1002/9780470996249.ch24>. The two main features available are the Monte Carlo method with tie-breaker, mc(), for discrete statistics, and the Maximized Monte Carlo, mmc(), for statistics with nuisance parameters.

This package provides tools to conduct Monte Carlo simulations under different conditions (e.g., varying sample size, data normality) for structural equation models (SEMs). Data can be simulated based on user-defined factor loadings and correlations, with optional non-normality added via Fleishman's power method (1978) <doi:10.1007/BF02293811>. Once generated, models can be estimated using lavaan'. This package facilitates testing model performance across multiple simulation scenarios. When data generation is completed (or when generated data sets are given) model tests can also be run. Please cite as "Orçan, F. (2021). MonteCarloSEM An R Package to Simulate Data for SEM. International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 8 (3), 704-713.".

This package provides flexible dictionary-based cleaning that allows users to specify implicit and explicit missing data, regular expressions for both data and columns, and global matches, while respecting ordering of factors.

Meta-package for statistical and machine learning with a unified interface for model fitting, prediction, performance assessment, and presentation of results. Approaches for model fitting and prediction of numerical, categorical, or censored time-to-event outcomes include traditional regression models, regularization methods, tree-based methods, support vector machines, neural networks, ensembles, data preprocessing, filtering, and model tuning and selection. Performance metrics are provided for model assessment and can be estimated with independent test sets, split sampling, cross-validation, or bootstrap resampling. Resample estimation can be executed in parallel for faster processing and nested in cases of model tuning and selection. Modeling results can be summarized with descriptive statistics; calibration curves; variable importance; partial dependence plots; confusion matrices; and ROC, lift, and other performance curves.
