Description: Enable optimization of parameters of ordinary differential equations. Therefore, using 'SUNDIALS' to solve the ODE-System (see Hindmarsh, Alan C., Peter N. Brown, Keith E. Grant, Steven L. Lee, Radu Serban, Dan E. Shumaker, and Carol S. Woodward. (2005) <doi:10.1145/1089014.1089020>). Furthermore, for optimization the particle swarm algorithm is used (see: Akman, Devin, Olcay Akman, and Elsa Schaefer. (2018) <doi:10.1155/2018/9160793> and Sengupta, Saptarshi, Sanchita Basak, and Richard Peters. (2018) <doi:10.3390/make1010010>). The ODE-System has to be passed as 'Rcpp'-function. The information for the parameter boundaries and states are conveyed using data.frames.

Description: Reads in multi-part parquet files. Will read in parquet files that have not been previously coalesced into one file. Convenient for reading in moderately sized, but split files.

Title: Parse and Manipulate Research Patient Data Registry ('RPDR')
Authors@R: person("Marton", "Kolossvary", role = c("aut", "cre"), email = "mkolossvary@mgh.harvard.edu")
Description: Functions to load Research Patient Data Registry ('RPDR') text queries from Partners Healthcare institutions into R.
The package also provides helper functions to manipulate data and execute common procedures
such as finding the closest radiological exams considering a given timepoint. 'parseRPDR' currently supports
txt sources: mrn, con, dem, enc, rdt, lab,  med, dia and rad.
All functionalities are parallelized for fast and efficient analyses.
