Detection of haplotype patterns that include single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and non-contiguous haplotypes that are associated with a phenotype. Methods for implementing HTRX are described in Yang Y, Lawson DJ (2023) <doi:10.1093/bioadv/vbad038> and Barrie W, Yang Y, Irving-Pease E.K, et al (2024) <doi:10.1038/s41586-023-06618-z>.

Provides methods for analysing and forecasting hierarchical and 
    grouped time series. The available forecast methods include bottom-up,
    top-down, optimal combination reconciliation (Hyndman et al. 2011) 
    <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2011.03.006>, and trace minimization reconciliation
    (Wickramasuriya et al. 2018) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1448825>.

A Poisson mixture model is implemented to cluster genes from high-
    throughput transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) data. Parameter estimation is
    performed using either the EM or CEM algorithm, and the slope heuristics are
    used for model selection (i.e., to choose the number of clusters).

Takes the MinT implementation of the 'hts'<https://cran.r-project.org/package=hts> package and adapts it to allow degenerate hierarchical structures. Instead of the "nodes" argument, this function takes an S matrix which is more versatile in the structures it allows. For a demo, see Steinmeister and Pauly (2024)<doi:10.15488/17729>. The MinT algorithm is based on Wickramasuriya et al. (2019)<doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1448825>.

The seed germination process starts with water uptake by the seed and ends with the protrusion of radicle and plumule under varying temperatures and soil water potential. Hydrotime is a way to describe the relationship between water potential and seed germination rates at germination percentages. One important quantity before applying hydrotime modeling of germination percentages is to consider the proportion of viable seeds that could germinate under saturated conditions. This package can be used to apply correction factors at various water potentials before estimating parameters like stress tolerance, and uniformity of the hydrotime model. Three different distributions namely, Gaussian, Logistic, and Extreme value distributions have been considered to fit the model to the seed germination time course. Details can be found in Bradford (2002) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/4046371>, and Bradford and Still(2004) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/23433495>.
