CRAN (and crantastic) updates this week New packages ------------
* anoint (1.0) Maintainer: S. A. Kovalchik Author(s): Ravi Varadhan <rvarad...@jhmi.edu> and Stephanie Kovalchik License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/anoint Tools for assessing multiple treatment-covariate interactions with data from a parallel-group randomized controlled clinical trial * BINCO (0.1-1) Maintainer: Shuang Li Author(s): Shuang Li <shuan...@fhcrc.org>,Li Hsu <l...@fhcrc.org>, Jie Peng <jiep...@ucdavis.edu>, Pei Wang <pw...@fhcrc.org>, License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/BINCO Network construction based on inference on edge selection frequencies generated from bootstrap resamples * binomlogit (1.0) Maintainer: Agnes Fussl Author(s): Agnes Fussl License: GPL-3 http://crantastic.org/packages/binomlogit The R package contains different MCMC schemes to estimate the regression coefficients of a binomial (or binary) logit model within a Bayesian framework: a data-augmented independence MH-sampler, an auxiliary mixture sampler and a hybrid auxiliary mixture (HAM) sampler. All sampling procedures are based on algorithms using data augmentation, where the regression coefficients are estimated by rewriting the logit model as a latent variable model called difference random utility model (dRUM). * biwavelet (0.1) Maintainer: Tarik C. Gouhier Author(s): Tarik C. Gouhier, Aslak Grinsted License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/biwavelet This is a port of the WTC MATLAB package written by Aslak Grinsted and the wavelet program written by Christopher Torrence and Gibert P. Compo. This package can be used to perform univariate and bivariate (cross-wavelet, wavelet coherence) wavelet analyses. * CePa (0.1) Maintainer: Zuguang Gu Author(s): Zuguang Gu License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/CePa Use pathway topology information to assign weight to pathway nodes. * fracprolif (1.0.2) Maintainer: Shawn Garbett Author(s): Shawn Garbett, Darren Tyson License: GPL-2 http://crantastic.org/packages/fracprolif Functions for fitting data to a quiescent growth model, i.e. a growth process that involves members of the population who stop dividing or propagating. * GUniFrac (1.0) Maintainer: Jun Chen Author(s): Jun Chen License: GPL-2 http://crantastic.org/packages/GUniFrac Generalized UniFrac distance for comparing microbial communities. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance using multiple distance matrices. * MAMS (0.1) Maintainer: Thomas Jaki Author(s): Thomas Jaki <jaki.tho...@gmail.com> and Dominic Magirr <d.mag...@lancaster.ac.uk> License: GPL-2 http://crantastic.org/packages/MAMS Designing multi-arm multi-stage studies with normal endpoints and known variance * mmand (0.1.0) Maintainer: Jon Clayden Author(s): Jon Clayden License: GPL-2 http://crantastic.org/packages/mmand This package provides tools for performing mathematical morphology operations, such as erosion and dilation, on data of arbitrary dimensionality. It can also be used for smoothing and other image processing-style operations. * muma (1.0) Maintainer: Edoardo Gaude Author(s): Edoardo Gaude, Dimitrios Spiliotopoulos, Silvia Mari, Andrea Spitaleri and Michela Ghitti License: GPL-2 http://crantastic.org/packages/muma Preprocessing of metabolomic data (normalization and scalings); Principal Component Analysis with help tool for choosing best-separating principal components and automatic outlier testing; automatic univariate analysis for parametric and non-parametric data, with report generation (volcano and box plots); partial least sqaure discriminant analysis (PLS-DA); orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA); Statistical Total Correlation Spectroscopy (STOCSY); Ratio Analysis NMR SpectroscopY (RANSY). * okmesonet (0.1.1) Maintainer: Brady Allred Author(s): Brady Allred, Torre Hovick, Samuel Fuhlendorf License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/okmesonet okmesonet retrieves and summarizes Oklahoma (USA) Mesonet climatological data provided by the Oklahoma Climatological Survey. Measurements are recorded every five minutes at approximately 120 stations throughout Oklahoma and are available in near real-time. * QRM (0.4-7) Maintainer: Bernhard Pfaff Author(s): Bernhard Pfaff License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/QRM This package is designed to accompany the book Quantitative Risk Management: Concepts, Techniques and Tools by Alexander J. McNeil, Rudiger Frey and Paul Embrechts. * rcppbugs (0.0.8) Maintainer: Whit Armstrong Author(s): Whit Armstrong <armstrong.w...@gmail.com> License: GPL-3 http://crantastic.org/packages/rcppbugs R binding for cppbugs * RfmriVC (1.0) Maintainer: Stefanie Kalus Author(s): Ludwig Bothmann, Stefanie Kalus License: GPL-2 http://crantastic.org/packages/RfmriVC A varying coefficient on the stimulus effect is introduced into the voxelwise fMRI regression model. By this the effects of the canonical hemodynamic response function are allowed to vary with another variable, like for example time or a vigilance parameter. * risaac (0.1) Maintainer: David L Gibbs Author(s): David L Gibbs License: GPL-3 http://crantastic.org/packages/risaac Uses the ISAAC algorithm: http://burtleburtle.net/bob/rand/isaacafa.html * rknn (1.0) Maintainer: Shengqiao Li Author(s): Shengqiao Li <s...@stat.wvu.edu> License: GPL (>= 2) http://crantastic.org/packages/rknn Random KNN Classification and Regression * superdiag (1.1) Maintainer: Tsung-han Tsai Author(s): Tsung-han Tsai <t.t...@wustl.edu>, Jeff Gill <jg...@wustl.edu> and Jonathan Rapkin <rap...@wustl.edu> License: GPL http://crantastic.org/packages/superdiag A Comprehensive Test Suite for Markov Chain Nonconvergence. * weightedKmeans (1.2.0) Maintainer: Graham Williams Author(s): Graham Williams, Joshua Z Huang, Xiaojun Chen, Qiang Wang, Longfei Xiao License: GPL (>= 3) http://crantastic.org/packages/weightedKmeans Entropy weighted kmeans (ewkm) is a weighted subspace clustering algorithm that is well suited to very high dimensional data. Weights are calculated as the importance of a variable with regard to cluster membership. The feature group weighted kmenas (fgkm) extends this concept by grouping features and weighting the group in addition to weihgting individual features.
