The R to MOSEK Optimization Interface

This is a meta-package designed to support the installation of Rmosek (>= 6.0) and bring the optimization facilities of MOSEK (>= 6.0) to the R-language. The interface supports large-scale optimization of many kinds: Mixed-integer and continuous linear, second-order cone, exponential cone and power cone optimization, as well as continuous semidefinite optimization. Rmosek and the R-language are open-source projects. MOSEK is a proprietary product, but unrestricted trial and academic licenses are available.

Fast Pseudo Random Number Generators

Several fast random number generators are provided as C++ header only libraries: The PCG family by O'Neill (2014 < https://www.cs.hmc.edu/tr/hmc-cs-2014-0905.pdf>) as well as the Xoroshiro / Xoshiro family by Blackman and Vigna (2021 ). In addition fast functions for generating random numbers according to a uniform, normal and exponential distribution are included. The latter two use the Ziggurat algorithm originally proposed by Marsaglia and Tsang (2000, ). The fast sampling methods support unweighted sampling both with and without replacement. These functions are exported to R and as a C++ interface and are enabled for use with the default 64 bit generator from the PCG family, Xoroshiro128+/++/** and Xoshiro256+/++/** as well as the 64 bit version of the 20 rounds Threefry engine (Salmon et al., 2011, ) as provided by the package 'sitmo'.

Get the Same, Personal, Free 'TCP' Port over and over

An R implementation of the cross-platform, language-independent "port4me" algorithm (< https://github.com/HenrikBengtsson/port4me>), which (1) finds a free Transmission Control Protocol ('TCP') port in [1024,65535] that the user can open, (2) is designed to work in multi-user environments, (3), gives different users, different ports, (4) gives the user the same port over time with high probability, (5) gives different ports for different software tools, and (6) requires no configuration.

Understand and Describe Bayesian Models and Posterior Distributions

Provides utilities to describe posterior distributions and Bayesian models. It includes point-estimates such as Maximum A Posteriori (MAP), measures of dispersion (Highest Density Interval - HDI; Kruschke, 2015 ) and indices used for null-hypothesis testing (such as ROPE percentage, pd and Bayes factors). References: Makowski et al. (2021) .

Graceful 'ggplot'-Based Graphics and Other Functions for GAMs Fitted Using 'mgcv'

Graceful 'ggplot'-based graphics and utility functions for working with generalized additive models (GAMs) fitted using the 'mgcv' package. Provides a reimplementation of the plot() method for GAMs that 'mgcv' provides, as well as 'tidyverse' compatible representations of estimated smooths.

Install 'Futureverse' in One Go

The 'Futureverse' is a set of packages for parallel and distributed processing with the 'future' package at its core, cf. Bengtsson (2021) . This package is designed to make it easy to install common 'Futureverse' packages in a single step. This package is intended for end-users, interactive use, and R scripts. Packages must not list it as a dependency - instead, explicitly declare each 'Futureverse' package as a dependency as needed.

Methods for Reading dChip Files

Functions for reading DCP and CDF.bin files generated by the dChip software.

Parallelize Common Functions via One Magic Function

The futurize() function transpiles calls to sequential map-reduce functions such as base::lapply(), purrr::map(), 'foreach::foreach() %do% { ... }' into concurrent alternatives, providing you with a simple, straightforward path to scalable parallel computing via the 'future' ecosystem . By combining this function with R's native pipe operator, you have a convenient way for speeding up iterative computations with minimal refactoring, e.g. 'lapply(xs, fcn) |> futurize()', 'purrr::map(xs, fcn) |> futurize()', and 'foreach::foreach(x = xs) %do% { fcn(x) } |> futurize()'. Other map-reduce packages that can be "futurized" are 'BiocParallel', 'plyr', 'crossmap', 'pbapply' packages. There is also support for a growing set of domain-specific packages on CRAN (e.g. 'boot', 'caret', 'fgsea', 'fwb', 'gamlss', 'glmmTMB', 'glmnet', 'kernelshap', 'lme4', 'metafor', 'mgcv', 'partykit', 'riskRegression', 'seriation', 'shapr', 'SimDesign', 'strucchange', 'tm', 'TSP', and 'vegan') and on Bioconductor (e.g. 'DESeq2', 'GenomicAlignments', 'GSVA', 'Rsamtools', 'scater', 'scuttle', 'SingleCellExperiment', and 'sva').

Progress Reporting of Common Functions via One Magic Function

The progressify() function rewrites (transpiles) calls to sequential and parallel map-reduce functions such as base::lapply(), purrr::map(), foreach::foreach(), and plyr::llply() to signal progress updates. By combining this function with R's native pipe operator, you have a straightforward way to report progress on iterative computations with minimal refactoring, e.g. 'lapply(x, fcn) |> progressify()' and 'purrr::map(x, fcn) |> progressify()'. It is compatible with the 'futurize' package for parallelization, e.g. 'lapply(x, fcn) |> progressify() |> futurize()' and 'purrr::map(x, fcn) |> futurize() |> progressify()'.
