Continuous Time Stochastic Modelling using Template Model Builder

Perform state and parameter inference, and forecasting, in stochastic state-space systems using the 'ctsmTMB' class. This class, built with the 'R6' package, provides a user-friendly interface for defining and handling state-space models. Inference is based on maximum likelihood estimation, with derivatives efficiently computed through automatic differentiation enabled by the 'TMB'/'RTMB' packages (Kristensen et al., 2016) . The available inference methods include Kalman filters, in addition to a Laplace approximation-based smoothing method. For further details of these methods refer to the documentation of the 'CTSMR' package < https://ctsm.info/ctsmr-reference.pdf> and Thygesen (2025) . Forecasting capabilities include moment predictions and stochastic path simulations, both implemented in 'C++' using 'Rcpp' (Eddelbuettel et al., 2018) for computational efficiency.

Estimate Global Clustering in Infectious Disease

Implements various novel and standard clustering statistics and other analyses useful for understanding the spread of infectious disease.

Ensemble Clustering using K Means and Hierarchical Clustering

Implements an ensemble algorithm for clustering combining a k-means and a hierarchical clustering approach.

R Interface with Google Compute Engine

Interact with the 'Google Compute Engine' API in R. Lets you create, start and stop instances in the 'Google Cloud'. Support for preconfigured instances, with templates for common R needs.

Apply Mapping Functions in Parallel using Futures

Implementations of the family of map() functions from 'purrr' that can be resolved using any 'future'-supported backend, e.g. parallel on the local machine or distributed on a compute cluster.

Robust Bayesian T-Test

An implementation of Bayesian model-averaged t-tests that allows users to draw inferences about the presence versus absence of an effect, variance heterogeneity, and potential outliers. The 'RoBTT' package estimates ensembles of models created by combining competing hypotheses and applies Bayesian model averaging using posterior model probabilities. Users can obtain model-averaged posterior distributions and inclusion Bayes factors, accounting for uncertainty in the data-generating process (Maier et al., 2024, ). The package also provides a truncated likelihood version of the model-averaged t-test, enabling users to exclude potential outliers without introducing bias (Godmann et al., 2024, ). Users can specify a wide range of informative priors for all parameters of interest. The package offers convenient functions for summary, visualization, and fit diagnostics.

Automated and Early Detection of Disease Outbreaks

A powerful tool for automating the early detection of disease outbreaks in time series data. 'aeddo' employs advanced statistical methods, including hierarchical models, in an innovative manner to effectively characterize outbreak signals. It is particularly useful for epidemiologists, public health professionals, and researchers seeking to identify and respond to disease outbreaks in a timely fashion. For a detailed reference on hierarchical models, consult Henrik Madsen and Poul Thyregod's book (2011), ISBN: 9781420091557.

Fitting (Exponential/Diffusion) RT-MPT Models

Fit (exponential or diffusion) response-time extended multinomial processing tree (RT-MPT) models by Klauer and Kellen (2018) and Klauer, Hartmann, and Meyer-Grant (submitted). The RT-MPT class not only incorporate frequencies like traditional multinomial processing tree (MPT) models, but also latencies. This enables it to estimate process completion times and encoding plus motor execution times next to the process probabilities of traditional MPTs. 'rtmpt' is a hierarchical Bayesian framework and posterior samples are sampled using a Metropolis-within-Gibbs sampler (for exponential RT-MPTs) or Hamiltonian-within-Gibbs sampler (for diffusion RT-MPTs).

Multi-Patient Analysis of Genomic Markers

Preprocessing and analysis of genomic data. 'MPAgenomics' provides wrappers from commonly used packages to streamline their repeated manipulation, offering an easy-to-use pipeline. The segmentation of successive multiple profiles is performed with an automatic choice of parameters involved in the wrapped packages. Considering multiple profiles in the same time, 'MPAgenomics' wraps efficient penalized regression methods to select relevant markers associated with a given outcome. Grimonprez et al. (2014) .

Dynamic Models for Confidence and Response Time Distributions

Provides density functions for the joint distribution of choice, response time and confidence for discrete confidence judgments as well as functions for parameter fitting, prediction and simulation for various dynamical models of decision confidence. All models are explained in detail by Hellmann et al. (2023; Preprint available at < https://osf.io/9jfqr/>, published version: ). Implemented models are the dynaViTE model, dynWEV model, the 2DSD model (Pleskac & Busemeyer, 2010, ), and various race models. C++ code for dynWEV and 2DSD is based on the 'rtdists' package by Henrik Singmann.
