Provides some tools for developing and validating prediction models, estimate expected survival of patients and visualize them graphically. Most of the implemented methods are based on penalized regressions such as: the lasso (Tibshirani R (1996)), the elastic net (Zou H et al. (2005) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2005.00503.x>), the adaptive lasso (Zou H (2006) <doi:10.1198/016214506000000735>), the stability selection (Meinshausen N et al. (2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2010.00740.x>), some extensions of the lasso (Ternes et al. (2016) <doi:10.1002/sim.6927>), some methods for the interaction setting (Ternes N et al. (2016) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201500234>), or others. A function generating simulated survival data set is also provided.

Utility functions, datasets and extended examples for survival analysis. This extends a range of other packages, some simple wrappers for time-to-event analyses, datasets, and extensive examples in HTML with R scripts. The package also supports the course Biostatistics III entitled "Survival analysis for epidemiologists in R".

Tutorials for statistics, aimed at biological scientists. 
    Subjects range from basic descriptive statistics 
    through to complex linear modelling. The tutorials
    include text, videos, interactive coding exercises
    and multiple choice quizzes. The package also 
    includes 19 datasets which are used in the 
    tutorials.

Datasets and functions for the book "Initiation à la Statistique avec R", F. Bertrand and M. Maumy-Bertrand (2022, ISBN:978-2100782826 Dunod, fourth edition).

Tools and code snippets for summarizing nested data, adverse events 
  and REDCap study information.

Calculates a range of UK freshwater invertebrate biotic indices
    including BMWP, Whalley, WHPT, Habitat-specific BMWP, AWIC, LIFE and PSI.

Tools designed to perform and evaluate cluster analysis (including Tocher's algorithm), 
	discriminant analysis and path analysis (standard and under collinearity), as well as some 
	useful miscellaneous tools for dealing with sample size and optimum plot size calculations. 
	A test for seed sample heterogeneity is now available. Mantel's permutation test can be found in this package. 
	A new approach for calculating its power is implemented. biotools also contains tests for genetic covariance components.
	Heuristic approaches for performing non-parametric spatial predictions of generic response variables and 
	spatial gene diversity are implemented.
