...Its goal is to estimate the effect of an intervention (e.g. a marketing campaign, policy change) on a time series outcome by predicting what would have happened in a counterfactual “no intervention” world. The package requires as input a response time series plus one or more control (covariate) time series that are assumed unaffected by the intervention, and it divides the time horizon into “pre-intervention” and “post-intervention” periods. It uses Bayesian modeling to fit a structural time series to the pre-period and extrapolate a counterfactual prediction for the post period, then compares observed vs predicted to infer the causal effect. ...

...The goal of NicheNet is to study intercellular communication from a computational perspective. NicheNet uses human or mouse gene expression data of interacting cells as input and combines this with a prior model that integrates existing knowledge on ligand-to-target signaling paths. This allows to predict ligand-receptor interactions that might drive gene expression changes in cells of interest. This model of prior information on potential ligand-target links can then be used to infer active ligand-target links between interacting cells. ...

reprex is an R package (from the tidyverse / Posit ecosystem) that helps users make reproducible examples (reprexes) of R code: self-contained, shareable, minimal examples capturing an issue or showing desired behavior. It formats code and its output nicely (often using Markdown or syntax appropriate to posting on forums, GitHub, StackOverflow etc.), handles dependencies, session info, etc. The goal is to make debugging, asking for help, or demonstrating code easier through rigorous...
