Latent Factor Mixed Models

Fast and accurate inference of gene-environment associations (GEA) in genome-wide studies (Caye et al., 2019, ). We developed a least-squares estimation approach for confounder and effect sizes estimation that provides a unique framework for several categories of genomic data, not restricted to genotypes. The speed of the new algorithm is several times faster than the existing GEA approaches, then our previous version of the 'LFMM' program present in the 'LEA' package (Frichot and Francois, 2015, ).

Population Fisher Information Matrix

Evaluate or optimize designs for nonlinear mixed effects models using the Fisher Information matrix. Methods used in the package refer to Mentré F, Mallet A, Baccar D (1997) , Retout S, Comets E, Samson A, Mentré F (2007) , Bazzoli C, Retout S, Mentré F (2009) , Le Nagard H, Chao L, Tenaillon O (2011) , Combes FP, Retout S, Frey N, Mentré F (2013) and Seurat J, Tang Y, Mentré F, Nguyen TT (2021) .

Biodiversity Assessment Tools

Includes algorithms to assess alpha and beta diversity in all their dimensions (taxonomic, phylogenetic and functional). It allows performing a number of analyses based on species identities/abundances, phylogenetic/functional distances, trees, convex-hulls or kernel density n-dimensional hypervolumes depicting species relationships. Cardoso et al. (2015) .
