Estimation of Multinormal Mixture Distribution

Fit multivariate mixture of normal distribution using covariance structure.

Framework for Specifying and Simulating Individual Based Models

A framework which provides users a set of useful primitive elements for specifying individual based simulation models, with special attention models for infectious disease epidemiology. Users build models by specifying variables for each characteristic of individuals in the simulated population by using data structures exposed by the package. The package provides efficient methods for finding subsets of individuals based on these variables, or cohorts. Cohorts can then be targeted for variable updates or scheduled for events. Variable updates queued during a time step are executed at the end of a discrete time step, and the code places no restrictions on how individuals are allowed to interact. These data structures are designed to provide an intuitive way for users to turn their conceptual model of a system into executable code, which is fast and memory efficient.

'VigiBase' Pharmacovigilance Database Toolbox

Perform the analysis of the World Health Organization (WHO) Pharmacovigilance database 'VigiBase' (Extract Case Level version), < https://who-umc.org/> e.g., load data, perform data management, disproportionality analysis, and descriptive statistics. Intended for pharmacovigilance routine use or studies. This package is NOT supported nor reflect the opinion of the WHO, or the Uppsala Monitoring Centre. Disproportionality methods are described by Norén et al (2013) .

A Modular Framework for Statistical Simulations in R

An open-source R package for structuring, maintaining, running, and debugging statistical simulations on both local and cluster-based computing environments.See full documentation at < https://avi-kenny.github.io/SimEngine/>.

Analysis of Discretely Observed Linear Birth-and-Death(-and-Immigration) Markov Chains

Provides Frequentist (EM) and Bayesian (MCMC) Methods for Inference of Birth-Death-Immigration Markov Chains.

Visualisation of Raw or Segmented Accelerometer Data

Creates visualisations in two and three dimensions of simulated data based on detected segments or raw accelerometer data.

All Hierarchical or Graphical Models for Generalized Linear Model

Find all hierarchical models of specified generalized linear model with information criterion (AIC, BIC, or AICc) within specified cutoff of minimum value. Alternatively, find all such graphical models. Use branch and bound algorithm so we do not have to fit all models.

Get or Set UNIX Niceness

Get or set UNIX priority (niceness) of running R process.

Power Calculations for GxE and GxG Interactions for GWAS

Analytical power calculations for GxE and GxG interactions for case-control studies of candidate genes and genome-wide association studies (GWAS). This includes power calculation for four two-step screening and testing procedures. It can also calculate power for GxE and GxG without any screening.

Process Accelerometer Data for Physical Activity Measurement

It provides a function "wearingMarking" for classification of monitor wear and nonwear time intervals in accelerometer data collected to assess physical activity. The package also contains functions for making plot for accelerometer data and obtaining the summary of various information including daily monitor wear time and the mean monitor wear time during valid days. "deliveryPred" and "markDelivery" can classify days for ActiGraph delivery by mail; "deliveryPreprocess" can process accelerometry data for analysis by zeropadding incomplete days and removing low activity days; "markPAI" can categorize physical activity intensity level based on user-defined cut-points of accelerometer counts. It also supports importing ActiGraph AGD files with "readActigraph" and "queryActigraph" functions.
