Improves the predictive performance of ridge and lasso regression exploiting one or more sources of prior information on the importance and direction of effects (Rauschenberger and others 2023, <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btad680>). For running the vignette (optional), install 'fwelnet' and 'ecpc' from <https://github.com/kjytay/fwelnet> and <https://github.com/Mirrelijn/ecpc>, respectively.

Tensor Gaussian graphical models (GGMs) have important applications in numerous areas, which can interpret conditional independence structures within tensor data. Yet, the available tensor data in one single study is often limited due to high acquisition costs. 
             Although relevant studies can provide additional data, it remains an open question how to pool such heterogeneous data. This package implements a transfer learning framework for tensor GGMs, which takes full advantage of informative auxiliary domains even when non-informative auxiliary domains are present, benefiting from the carefully designed data-adaptive weights.

A latent, quasi-independent truncation time is assumed to be linked with the observed dependent truncation time, the event time, and an unknown transformation parameter via a structural transformation model. The transformation parameter is chosen to minimize the conditional Kendall's tau (Martin and Betensky, 2005) <doi:10.1198/016214504000001538> or the regression coefficient estimates (Jones and Crowley, 1992) <doi:10.2307/2336782>. The marginal distribution for the truncation time and the event time are completely left unspecified. The methodology is applied to survival curve estimation and regression analysis.

Univariate time series operations that follow an opinionated design. 
    The main principle of 'transx' is to keep the number of observations the same. 
    Operations that reduce this number have to fill the observations gap.
