Package CVXR updated to version 0.99-6 with previous version 0.99-5 dated 2019-05-13

Title: Disciplined Convex Optimization
Description: An object-oriented modeling language for disciplined convex programming (DCP). It allows the user to formulate convex optimization problems in a natural way following mathematical convention and DCP rules. The system analyzes the problem, verifies its convexity, converts it into a canonical form, and hands it off to an appropriate solver to obtain the solution.

Title: Call 'BEAST2'
Description: 'BEAST2' (<http://www.beast2.org>) is a widely used Bayesian phylogenetic tool, that uses DNA/RNA/protein data and many model priors to create a posterior of jointly estimated phylogenies and parameters. 'BEAST2' is a command-line tool. This package provides a way to call 'BEAST2' from an 'R' function call.

Package gtWAS updated to version 1.1.0 with previous version 1.0.0 dated 2018-01-08

Title: Genome and Transcriptome Wide Association Study
Description: Quantitative trait loci mapping and genome wide association analysis are used to find candidate molecular marker or region associated with phenotype based on linkage analysis and linkage disequilibrium. Gene expression quantitative trait loci mapping is used to find candidate molecular marker or region associated with gene expression. In this package, we applied the method in Liu W. (2011) <doi:10.1007/s00122-011-1631-7> and Gusev A. (2016) <doi:10.1038/ng.3506> to genome and transcriptome wide association study, which is aimed at revealing the association relationship between phenotype and molecular markers, expression levels, molecular markers nested within different related expression effect and expression effect nested within different related molecular marker effect. F test based on full and reduced model are performed to obtain p value or likelihood ratio statistic. The best linear model can be obtained by stepwise regression analysis.

Package forestplot updated to version 1.8 with previous version 1.7.2 dated 2017-09-16

Title: Advanced Forest Plot Using 'grid' Graphics
Description: A forest plot that allows for multiple confidence intervals per row, custom fonts for each text element, custom confidence intervals, text mixed with expressions, and more. The aim is to extend the use of forest plots beyond meta-analyses. This is a more general version of the original 'rmeta' package's forestplot() function and relies heavily on the 'grid' package.

Package riskParityPortfolio updated to version 0.1.2 with previous version 0.1.1 dated 2019-01-08

Title: Design of Risk Parity Portfolios
Description: Fast design of risk parity portfolios for financial investment. The goal of the risk parity portfolio formulation is to equalize or distribute the risk contributions of the different assets, which is missing if we simply consider the overall volatility of the portfolio as in the mean-variance Markowitz portfolio. In addition to the vanilla formulation, where the risk contributions are perfectly equalized subject to no shortselling and budget constraints, many other formulations are considered that allow for box constraints and shortselling, as well as the inclusion of additional objectives like the expected return and overall variance. See vignette for a detailed documentation and comparison, with several illustrative examples. The package is based on the papers: Y. Feng, and D. P. Palomar (2015). SCRIP: Successive Convex Optimization Methods for Risk Parity Portfolio Design. IEEE Trans. on Signal Processing, vol. 63, no. 19, pp. 5285-5300. <doi:10.1109/TSP.2015.2452219>. F.
