If one treated group is matched to one control reservoir in two different ways to produce two sets of treated-control matched pairs, then the two control groups may be entwined, in the sense that some control individuals are in both control groups.  The exterior match is used to compare the two control groups.

Estimates coefficients of extended LASSO penalized linear regression and generalized linear models. Currently lasso and elastic net penalized linear regression and generalized linear models are considered. This package currently utilizes an accurate approximation of L1 penalty and then a modified Jacobi algorithm to estimate the coefficients. There is provision for plotting of the solutions and predictions of coefficients at given values of lambda. This package also contains functions for cross validation to select a suitable lambda value given the data. Also provides a function for estimation in fused lasso penalized linear regression. For more details, see Mandal, B. N.(2014). Computational methods for L1 penalized GLM model fitting, unpublished report submitted to Macquarie University, NSW, Australia.

For multiple full/partial ranking lists, R package 'ExtMallows' can (1) detect whether the input ranking lists are over-correlated, and (2) use the Mallows model or extended Mallows model to integrate the ranking lists, and (3) use hierarchical extended Mallows model for rank integration if there are groups of over-correlated ranking lists.

By using a multispectral image and ESRI shapefile (Point/ Line/ Polygon), a data table will be generated for classification, regression or other processing. The data table will be contained by band wise raster values and shapefile ids (User Defined).
