Hill/Bliss Independence Model for Combination Vaccines

Calculate expected relative risk and proportion protected assuming normally distributed log10 transformed antibody dose for a several component vaccine. Uses Hill models for each component which are combined under Bliss independence. See Saul and Fay, 2007 .

Formal Parser and Related Tools for R Markdown Documents

An implementation of a formal grammar and parser for R Markdown documents using the Boost Spirit X3 library. It also includes a collection of high level functions for working with the resulting abstract syntax tree.

Pretty Base Graphics

Drop-in replacements for standard base graphics functions. The replacements are prettier versions of the originals.

Markdown Parser Implemented using the 'MD4C' Library

Provides an R wrapper for the 'MD4C' (Markdown for 'C') library. Functions exist for parsing markdown ('CommonMark' compliant) along with support for other common markdown extensions (e.g. GitHub flavored markdown, 'LaTeX' equation support, etc.). The package also provides a number of higher level functions for exploring and manipulating markdown abstract syntax trees as well as translating and displaying the documents.

Optimization via Subsampling (OPTS)

Subsampling based variable selection for low dimensional generalized linear models. The methods repeatedly subsample the data minimizing an information criterion (AIC/BIC) over a sequence of nested models for each subsample.

Statistical Inference on Lineup Fairness

Since the early 1970s eyewitness testimony researchers have recognised the importance of estimating properties such as lineup bias (is the lineup biased against the suspect, leading to a rate of choosing higher than one would expect by chance?), and lineup size (how many reasonable choices are in fact available to the witness? A lineup is supposed to consist of a suspect and a number of additional members, or foils, whom a poor-quality witness might mistake for the perpetrator). Lineup measures are descriptive, in the first instance, but since the earliest articles in the literature researchers have recognised the importance of reasoning inferentially about them. This package contains functions to compute various properties of laboratory or police lineups, and is intended for use by researchers in forensic psychology and/or eyewitness testimony research. Among others, the r4lineups package includes functions for calculating lineup proportion, functional size, various estimates of effective size, diagnosticity ratio, homogeneity of the diagnosticity ratio, ROC curves for confidence x accuracy data and the degree of similarity of faces in a lineup.

String Diff, Match, and Patch Utilities

A wrapper for Google's 'diff-match-patch' library. It provides basic tools for computing diffs, finding fuzzy matches, and constructing / applying patches to strings.

Data Set for the 'benchmarkme' Package

Crowd sourced benchmarks from running the 'benchmarkme' package.
