Estimates the sample size needed to detect microbial contamination in a lot with a user-specified detection probability and user-specified analytical sensitivity. Various patterns of microbial contamination are accounted for: homogeneous (Poisson), heterogeneous (Poisson-Gamma) or localized(Zero-inflated Poisson). Ida Jongenburger et al.

Subset a control group to match an intervention group on a set of features using multivariate matching and propensity score calipers. Based on methods in Rosenbaum and Rubin (1985).

N>=3 methods are used to measure each of n items. The data are used to estimate simultaneously systematic error (bias) and random error (imprecision). Observed measurements for each method or device are assumed to be linear functions of the unknown true values and the errors are assumed normally distributed. Pairwise calibration curves and plots can be easily generated. Unlike the ncb.od function, the omx function builds a one-factor measurement error model using OpenMx and allows missing values, uses full information maximum likelihood to estimate parameters, and provides both likelihood-based and bootstrapped confidence intervals for all parameters, in addition to Wald-type intervals.

Estimation, inference and forecasting using the Bayesian approach for multivariate threshold autoregressive (TAR) models in which the distribution used to describe the noise process belongs to the class of Gaussian variance mixtures.

This package provides access to coded election programmes from the Manifesto Corpus and to the Manifesto Project's Main Dataset and routines to analyse this data. The Manifesto Project <https://manifesto-project.wzb.eu> collects and analyses election programmes across time and space to measure the political preferences of parties. The Manifesto Corpus contains the collected and annotated election programmes in the Corpus format of the package tm to enable easy use of text processing and text mining functionality. Specific functions for scaling of coded political texts are included.

This package provides a utility library to facilitate the generalization of statistical methods built on a regression framework. Package developers can use modelObj methods to initiate a regression analysis without concern for the details of the regression model and the method to be used to obtain parameter estimates. The specifics of the regression step are left to the user to define when calling the function. The user of a function developed within the modelObj framework creates as input a modelObj that contains the model and the R methods to be used to obtain parameter estimates and to obtain predictions. In this way, a user can easily go from linear to non-linear models within the same package.

An efficient Gibbs sampling algorithm is developed for Bayesian multivariate longitudinal data analysis with the focus on selection of important elements in the generalized autoregressive matrix. It provides posterior samples and estimates of parameters. In addition, estimates of several information criteria such as Akaike information criterion (AIC), Bayesian information criterion (BIC), deviance information criterion (DIC) and prediction accuracy such as the marginal predictive likelihood (MPL) and the mean squared prediction error (MSPE) are provided for model selection.

This package provides sampling and density functions for matrix variate normal, t, and inverted t distributions; ML estimation for matrix variate normal and t distributions using the EM algorithm, including some restrictions on the parameters; and classification by linear and quadratic discriminant analysis for matrix variate normal and t distributions described in Thompson et al. (2019) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2019.1696208>. Performs clustering with matrix variate normal and t mixture models.

Analyze multilevel networks as described in Lazega et al (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.socnet.2008.02.001> and in Lazega and Snijders (2016, ISBN:978-3-319-24520-1). The package was developed essentially as an extension to igraph'.

This package provides functions to predict one multi-way array (i.e., a tensor) from another multi-way array, using a low-rank CANDECOMP/PARAFAC (CP) factorization and a ridge (L_2) penalty [Lock, EF (2018) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2017.1401544>]. Also includes functions to sample from the Bayesian posterior of a tensor-on-tensor model.

Multivariate distribution derived from a Bernoulli mixed model under a marginal approach, incorporating a non-normal random intercept whose distribution is assumed to follow a generalized log-gamma (GLG) specification under a particular parameter setting. Estimation is performed by maximizing the log-likelihood using numerical optimization techniques (Lizandra C. Fabio, Vanessa Barros, Cristian Lobos, Jalmar M. F. Carrasco, Marginal multivariate approach: A novel strategy for handling correlated binary outcomes, 2025, under submission).

Evaluate hypotheses concerning the distribution of multinomial proportions using bridge sampling. The bridge sampling routine is able to compute Bayes factors for hypotheses that entail inequality constraints, equality constraints, free parameters, and mixtures of all three. These hypotheses are tested against the encompassing hypothesis, that all parameters vary freely or against the null hypothesis that all category proportions are equal. For more information see Sarafoglou et al. (2020) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/bux7p>.

Automation tool to run R scripts if needed, based on last modified time. It comes with no package dependencies, organizational overhead, or structural requirements. In short: run an R script if underlying files have changed, otherwise do nothing.

Perform missing value imputation for biological data using the random forest algorithm, the imputation aim to keep the original mean and standard deviation consistent after imputation.

If results from a meta-GWAS are used for validation in one of the cohorts that was included in the meta-analysis, this will yield biased (i.e. too optimistic) results. The validation cohort needs to be independent from the meta-Genome-Wide-Association-Study (meta-GWAS) results. MetaSubtract will subtract the results of the respective cohort from the meta-GWAS results analytically without having to redo the meta-GWAS analysis using the leave-one-out methodology. It can handle different meta-analyses methods and takes into account if single or double genomic control correction was applied to the original meta-analysis. It can also handle different meta-analysis methods. It can be used for whole GWAS, but also for a limited set of genetic markers. See for application: Nolte I.M. et al. (2017); <doi: 10.1038/ejhg.2017.50>.
