The matrixdist R package provides a comprehensive suite of tools for the statistical analysis of matrix distributions, including phase-type, inhomogeneous phase-type, discrete phase-type, and related multivariate distributions. This paper…
Difficulty replicating baselines, high computational costs, and required domain expertise create persistent barriers to clinical AI research. To address these challenges, we introduce PyHealth 2.0, an enhanced clinical deep learning toolkit…
Despite the explosion of interest in healthcare AI research, the reproducibility and benchmarking of those research works are often limited due to the lack of standard benchmark datasets and diverse evaluation metrics. To address this…
Bayesian hierarchical models are a methodology for aggregation and synthesis of data from heterogeneous settings, used widely in statistics and other disciplines. I apply this framework to the evidence from 7 randomized experiments of…
Target trial emulation (TTE) enables causal questions to be studied with observational data when randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are infeasible. Yet treatment-effect methods often address causal estimation, missingness, and temporal…
Modern mobile health (mHealth) assessment combines self-reported measures of participants' health experiences with passively collected health behavior data throughout the day. These data are collected across multiple measurement scales,…
Background and Objective: Variables collected over time, or longitudinally, such as biologic measurements in electronic health records data, are not simple to summarize with a single time-point, and thus can be more holistically…
Recurrent event analyses have found a wide range of applications in biomedicine, public health, and engineering, among others, where study subjects may experience a sequence of event of interest during follow-up. The R package reReg (Chiou…
This contribution presents a guide to the R package multilevLCA, which offers a complete and innovative set of technical tools for the latent class analysis of single-level and multilevel categorical data. We describe the available model…
Simulation has emerged as a popular method to study the long-term societal consequences of recommender systems. This approach allows researchers to specify their theoretical model explicitly and observe the evolution of system-level…
Inference on time series data is a common requirement in many scientific disciplines and internet of things (IoT) applications, yet there are few resources available to domain scientists to easily, robustly, and repeatably build such…
We introduce FDApy, an open-source Python package for the analysis of functional data. The package provides tools for the representation of (multivariate) functional data defined on different dimensional domains and for functional data that…
Quantifying the causal effects of continuous exposures on outcomes of interest is critical for social, economic, health, and medical research. However, most existing software packages focus on binary exposures. We develop the CausalGPS R…
Empirical claims often rely on one population, design, and analysis. Many-analysts, multiverse, and robustness studies expose how results can vary across plausible analytic choices. Synthesizing these results, however, is nontrivial as all…
Although Raman spectroscopy is widely used for the investigation of biomedical samples and has a high potential for use in clinical applications, it is not common in clinical routines. One of the factors that obstruct the integration of…
Mixed data arise when observations are described by a mixture of numerical and categorical variables. The R package PCAmixdata extends to this type of data standard multivariate analysis methods which allow description, exploration and…
Mathematical modeling is a powerful tool in rheology, and we present pyRheo, an open-source package for Python designed to streamline the analysis of creep, stress relaxation, oscillation, and rotation tests. pyRheo contains a comprehensive…
We present a python-based program for phenomenological investigations in particle physics using machine learning algorithms, called \verb"MLAnalysis". The program is able to convert LHE and LHCO files generated by \verb"MadGraph5_aMC@NLO"…
Background: Evidence synthesis facilitates evidence-based medicine. This task becomes increasingly difficult to accomplished with applying computational solutions, since the medical literature grows at astonishing rates. Objective: This…
Economic incentives encourage malware authors to constantly develop new, increasingly complex malware to steal sensitive data or blackmail individuals and companies into paying large ransoms. In 2017, the worldwide economic impact of…
