NGM: Bayesian Semi-parametric Stochastic Velocity Model with Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process prior (B-SSVM-OU)

Description Newton's growth Model (NGM) fits longitudinal (or time-series) data when a study examines 1) growth dynamics (trajectory, velocity, acceleration) of health outcomes (e.g., infant's body mass index) and 2) how growth acceleration (or velocity) is associated with observed exposure.

MODAC: Method of Divide-and-Combine in Regularized Generalized Linear Models for Big Data

Description Map-Reduce functions for fitting generalized linear models on Hadoop cluster. When a dataset is extrememly large (in terabytes), storing and fitting GLMs on local machine become impossible. The provided functions can fit and provide inference to GLMs for big data on a distributive file system using mapper and reducer functions in a parallel framework. The method is numerically robust.

HDDesign: Determine the Sample Size for High Dimensional Classification Studies

Description Determine the sample size requirement to achieve the target probability of correct classification (PCC) for studies employing high-dimensional features. The package implements functions to 1) determine the asymptotic feasibility of the classification problem; 2) compute the upper bounds of the PCC for any linear classifier; 3) estimate the PCC of three design methods given design assumptions; 4) determine the sample size requirement to achieve the target PCC for three design methods.
