Conduct multi-locus genome-wide association study under the framework of multi-locus random-SNP-effect mixed linear model (mrMLM). First, each marker on the genome is scanned. Bonferroni correction is replaced by a less stringent selection criterion for significant test. Then, all the markers that are potentially associated with the trait are included in a multi-locus genetic model, their effects are estimated by empirical Bayes, and all the nonzero effects were further identified by likelihood ratio test for significant QTL. The program may run on a desktop or laptop computers. If marker genotypes in association mapping population are almost homozygous, these methods in this software are very effective. If there are many heterozygous marker genotypes, the IIIVmrMLM software is recommended.

Two novel matching-based methods for estimating group average treatment effects (GATEs). The match_y1y0() and match_y1y0_bc() functions are used for imputing the potential outcomes based on matching and bias-corrected matching techniques, respectively. The EstGATE() function is employed to estimate the GATE after imputing the potential outcomes.

This package provides a supervised learning algorithm inputs a train set, and outputs a prediction function, which can be used on a test set. If each data point belongs to a subset (such as geographic region, year, etc), then how do we know if subsets are similar enough so that we can get accurate predictions on one subset, after training on Other subsets? And how do we know if training on All subsets would improve prediction accuracy, relative to training on the Same subset? SOAK, Same/Other/All K-fold cross-validation, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.08643> can be used to answer these questions, by fixing a test subset, training models on Same/Other/All subsets, and then comparing test error rates (Same versus Other and Same versus All). Also provides code for estimating how many train samples are required to get accurate predictions on a test set.

An implementation of the mixed neighbourhood selection (MNS) algorithm. The MNS algorithm can be used to estimate multiple related precision matrices. In particular, the motivation behind this work was driven by the need to understand functional connectivity networks across multiple subjects. This package also contains an implementation of a novel algorithm through which to simulate multiple related precision matrices which exhibit properties frequently reported in neuroimaging analysis.

Electronic health records (EHR) linked with biorepositories are a powerful platform for translational studies. A major bottleneck exists in the ability to phenotype patients accurately and efficiently. Towards that end, we developed an automated high-throughput phenotyping method integrating International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes and narrative data extracted using natural language processing (NLP). Specifically, our proposed method, called MAP (Map Automated Phenotyping algorithm), fits an ensemble of latent mixture models on aggregated ICD and NLP counts along with healthcare utilization. The MAP algorithm yields a predicted probability of phenotype for each patient and a threshold for classifying subjects with phenotype yes/no (See Katherine P. Liao, et al. (2019) <doi:10.1093/jamia/ocz066>.).

Multilevel models (mixed effects models) are the statistical tool of choice for analyzing multilevel data (Searle et al, 2009). These models account for the correlated nature of observations within higher level units by adding group-level error terms that augment the singular residual error of a standard OLS regression. Multilevel and mixed effects models often require specialized data pre-processing and further post-estimation derivations and graphics to gain insight into model results. The package presented here, mlmtools', is a suite of pre- and post-estimation tools for multilevel models in R'. Package implements post-estimation tools designed to work with models estimated using lme4''s (Bates et al., 2014) lmer() function, which fits linear mixed effects regression models. Searle, S.

Estimation of treatment hierarchies in network meta-analysis using a novel frequentist approach based on treatment choice criteria (TCC) and probabilistic ranking models, as described by Evrenoglou et al. (2024) <DOI:10.48550/arXiv.2406.10612>. The TCC are defined using a rule based on the smallest worthwhile difference (SWD). Using the defined TCC, the NMA estimates (i.e., treatment effects and standard errors) are first transformed into treatment preferences, indicating either a treatment preference (e.g., treatment A > treatment B) or a tie (treatment A = treatment B). These treatment preferences are then synthesized using a probabilistic ranking model, which estimates the latent ability parameter of each treatment and produces the final treatment hierarchy. This parameter represents each treatments ability to outperform all the other competing treatments in the network. Here the terms ability to outperform indicates the propensity of each treatment to yield clinically important and beneficial effects when compared to all the other treatments in the network. Consequently, larger ability estimates indicate higher positions in the ranking list.
