Reading, Quality Control and Preprocessing of MBA (Multiplex Bead Assay) Data

Speeds up the process of loading raw data from MBA (Multiplex Bead Assay) examinations, performs quality control checks, and automatically normalises the data, preparing it for more advanced, downstream tasks. The main objective of the package is to create a simple environment for a user, who does not necessarily have experience with R language. The package is developed within the project of the same name - 'PvSTATEM', which is an international project aiming for malaria elimination.

Dashboard with Fomantic UI Support for Shiny

It offers functions for creating dashboard with Fomantic UI.

Sorted L1 Penalized Estimation

Efficient implementations for Sorted L-One Penalized Estimation (SLOPE): generalized linear models regularized with the sorted L1-norm (Bogdan et al. 2015). Supported models include ordinary least-squares regression, binomial regression, multinomial regression, and Poisson regression. Both dense and sparse predictor matrices are supported. In addition, the package features predictor screening rules that enable fast and efficient solutions to high-dimensional problems.

Extension to 'tmap' for Creating Cartograms

Provides new layer functions to 'tmap' for creating various types of cartograms. A cartogram is a type of thematic map in which geographic areas are resized or distorted based on a quantitative variable, such as population. The goal is to make the area sizes proportional to the selected variable while preserving geographic positions as much as possible.
