Easy implementation of the MABAC multi-criteria decision method, that was introduced by Pamučar and Ćirović in the work entitled: "The selection of transport and handling resources in logistics centers using Multi-Attributive Border Approximation area Comparison (MABAC)" - <doi:10.1016/j.eswa.2014.11.057> - which aimed to choose implements for logistics centers. This package receives data, preferably in a spreadsheet, reads it and applies the mathematical algorithms inherent to the MABAC method to generate a ranking with the optimal solution according to the established criteria, weights and type of criteria. The data will be normalized, weighted by the weights, the border area will be determined, the distances to this border area will be calculated and finally a ranking with the optimal option will be generated.

Fit data from a continuous population with a smooth density on finite interval by an approximate Bernstein polynomial model which is a mixture of certain beta distributions and find maximum approximate Bernstein likelihood estimator of the unknown coefficients. Consequently, maximum likelihood estimates of the unknown density, distribution functions, and more can be obtained. If the support of the density is not the unit interval then transformation can be applied. This is an implementation of the methods proposed by the author of this package published in the Journal of Nonparametric Statistics: Guan (2016) <doi:10.1080/10485252.2016.1163349> and Guan (2017) <doi:10.1080/10485252.2017.1374384>. For data with covariates, under some semiparametric regression models such as Cox proportional hazards model and the accelerated failure time model, the baseline survival function can be estimated smoothly based on general interval censored data.

Conducts and simulates the MABOUST design, including making interim decisions to stop a treatment for inferiority or stop the trial early for superiority or equivalency.

Efficient way to design and conduct psychological experiments for testing the performance of large language models. It simplifies the process of setting up experiments and data collection via language models’ API, facilitating a smooth workflow for researchers in the field of machine behaviour.
