The error message gives you a clue, "there is no package called ‘genefilter’", you have to install this package from bioconductor
, before installing modeest package.

if (!requireNamespace("BiocManager", quietly = TRUE))
    install.packages("BiocManager")
BiocManager::install("genefilter", version = "3.8")
