Presentation two independence tests for two-way, three-way and four-way contingency tables. These tests are: the modular test and the logarithmic minimum test. For details on this method see: Sulewski (2017) <doi:10.18778/0208-6018.330.04>, Sulewski (2018) <doi:10.1080/02664763.2018.1424122>, Sulewski (2019) <doi:10.2478/bile-2019-0003>, Sulewski (2021) <doi:10.1080/00949655.2021.1908286>.

Considering the singly imputed synthetic data generated via plug-in sampling under the multivariate normal model, draws inference procedures including the generalized variance, the sphericity test, the test for independence between two subsets of variables, and the test for the regression of one set of variables on the other.

Fits and evaluates three-state partitioned survival analyses
    (PartSAs) and Markov models (clock forward or clock reset) to
    progression and overall survival data typically collected in oncology clinical trials. These model structures are typically considered in
    cost-effectiveness modeling in advanced/metastatic cancer indications.

Fit penalized splines mixed-effects models (a special case of additive models) for large longitudinal datasets. The package includes a psme() function that (1) relies on package 'mgcv' for constructing population and subject smooth functions as penalized splines, (2) transforms the constructed additive model to a linear mixed-effects model, (3) exploits package 'lme4' for model estimation and (4) backtransforms the estimated linear mixed-effects model to the additive model for interpretation and visualization. See Pedersen et al. (2019) <doi:10.7717/peerj.6876> and Bates et al. (2015) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i01> for an introduction. Unlike the gamm() function in 'mgcv', the psme() function is fast and memory-efficient, able to handle datasets with millions of observations.
