Spatial Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SSFA) is an original method for controlling the spatial heterogeneity in Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) models, for cross-sectional data, by splitting the inefficiency term into three terms: the first one related to spatial peculiarities of the territory in which each single unit operates, the second one related to the specific production features and the third one representing the error term.

Fits complex parametric models using the method proposed by Cox and Kartsonaki (2012) without likelihoods.

Fits group-regularized generalized linear models (GLMs) using the spike-and-slab group lasso (SSGL) prior of Bai et al. (2022) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2020.1765784> and extended to GLMs by Bai (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2007.07021>. This package supports fitting the SSGL model for the following GLMs with group sparsity: Gaussian linear regression, binary logistic regression, and Poisson regression.

Bayesian estimation for undirected graphical models using spike-and-slab priors. The package handles continuous, discrete, and mixed data.

Processes amino acid alignments produced by the 'IPD-IMGT/HLA (Immuno Polymorphism-ImMunoGeneTics/Human Leukocyte Antigen) Database' to identify user-defined amino acid residue motifs shared across HLA alleles, HLA alleles, or HLA haplotypes, and calculates frequencies based on HLA allele frequency data. 'SSHAARP' (Searching Shared HLA Amino Acid Residue Prevalence) uses 'Generic Mapping Tools (GMT)' software and the 'GMT' R package to generate global frequency heat maps that illustrate the distribution of each user-defined map around the globe. 'SSHAARP' analyzes the allele frequency data described by Solberg et al. (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.humimm.2008.05.001>, a global set of 497 population samples from 185 published datasets, representing 66,800 individuals total. Users may also specify their own datasets, but file conventions must follow the prebundled Solberg dataset, or the mock haplotype dataset.
