Provides access to the 'LDlink' API (<https://ldlink.nih.gov/?tab=apiaccess>)
    using the R console.  This programmatic access facilitates researchers who are 
    interested in performing batch queries in 1000 Genomes Project (2015) <doi:10.1038/nature15393> 
    data using 'LDlink'. 'LDlink' is an interactive and powerful suite of web-based tools for querying 
    germline variants in human population groups of interest. For more details, please see 
    Machiela et al. (2015) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btv402>.

A single analysis path that includes distance-based ordination, global tests of any effect of the microbiome, and tests of the effects of individual taxa with false-discovery-rate (FDR) control. It accommodates both continuous and discrete covariates as well as interaction terms to be tested either singly or in combination, allows for adjustment of confounding covariates, and uses permutation-based p-values that can control for sample correlations. It can be applied to transformed data, and an omnibus test can combine results from analyses conducted on different transformation scales. It can also be used for testing presence-absence associations based on infinite number of rarefaction replicates, testing mediation effects of the microbiome, analyzing censored time-to-event outcomes, and for compositional analysis by fitting linear models to centered-log-ratio taxa count data.

A suite of tools for estimating, assessing model fit, simulating from, and visualizing location dependent marked point processes characterized by regularity in the pattern.
    You provide a reference marked point process, a set of raster images containing location specific covariates, and select the estimation algorithm and type of mark model.
    'ldmppr' estimates the process and mark models and allows you to check the appropriateness of the model using a variety of diagnostic tools.
    Once a satisfactory model fit is obtained, you can simulate from the model and visualize the results.
    Documentation for the package 'ldmppr' is available in the form of a vignette.
