This package provides an improved heatmap package. It is completely compatible with the original R function heatmap, and provides more powerful and convenient features.

This is a package for the manipulation of genetic data (SNPs). Computation of genetic relationship matrix (GRM) and dominance matrix, linkage disequilibrium (LD), and heritability with efficient algorithms for linear mixed models (AIREML).

This package provides useful functions to edit ggplot object (e.g., setting fonts for theme and layers, adding rounded rectangle as background for each of the legends).

This package provides a set of psychometric tools for cognitive diagnosis modeling based on the generalized deterministic inputs, noisy and gate (G-DINA) model by de la Torre (2011) doi:10.1007/s11336-011-9207-7 and its extensions, including the sequential G-DINA model by Ma and de la Torre (2016) doi:10.1111/bmsp.12070 for polytomous responses, and the polytomous G-DINA model by Chen and de la Torre doi:10.1177/0146621613479818 for polytomous attributes. Joint attribute distribution can be independent, saturated, higher-order, loglinear smoothed or structured. Q-matrix validation, item and model fit statistics, model comparison at test and item level and differential item functioning can also be conducted. A graphical user interface is also provided.

This package provides functions that wrap popular phylogenetic software for sequence alignment, masking of sequence alignments, and estimation of phylogenies and ancestral character states.

This package provides recursive partitioning functions for classification, regression and survival trees.

This package includes HTML functions and methods to write in an HTML file. Thus, making HTML reports is easy. It includes a function that allows redirection on the fly, which appears to be very useful for teaching purposes, as the student can keep a copy of the produced output to keep all that they did during the course. The package comes with a vignette describing how to write HTML reports for statistical analysis. Finally, a driver for Sweave parses HTML flat files containing R code and to automatically write the corresponding outputs (tables and graphs).

This R package provides functions to create formattable vectors and data frames. Formattable vectors are printed with text formatting, and formattable data frames are printed with multiple types of formatting in HTML to improve the readability of data presented in tabular form rendered in web pages.

This package provides a collection of miscellaneous basic statistic functions and convenience wrappers for efficiently describing data. The author's intention was to create a toolbox, which facilitates the (notoriously time consuming) first descriptive tasks in data analysis, consisting of calculating descriptive statistics, drawing graphical summaries and reporting the results. The package contains furthermore functions to produce documents using MS Word (or PowerPoint) and functions to import data from Excel. Many of the included functions can be found scattered in other packages and other sources written partly by Titans of R. The reason for collecting them here, was primarily to have them consolidated in ONE instead of dozens of packages (which themselves might depend on other packages which are not needed at all), and to provide a common and consistent interface as far as function and arguments naming, NA handling, recycling rules etc. are concerned. Google style guides were used as naming rules (in absence of convincing alternatives). The BigCamelCase style was consequently applied to functions borrowed from contributed R packages as well.

This package provides a new class Formula, which extends the base class formula. It supports extended formulas with multiple parts of regressors on the right-hand side and/or multiple responses on the left-hand side.

This package provides an R wrapper for libnabo, an exact or approximate k nearest neighbour library which is optimised for low dimensional spaces (e.g. 3D). nabor includes a knn function that is designed as a drop-in replacement for the RANN function nn2. In addition, objects which include the k-d tree search structure can be returned to speed up repeated queries of the same set of target points.

This package provides a general-purpose tool for dynamic report generation in R using Literate Programming techniques.

Multiple imputation using Fully Conditional Specification (FCS) implemented by the MICE algorithm as described in http://doi.org/10.18637/jss.v045.i03. Each variable has its own imputation model. Built-in imputation models are provided for continuous data (predictive mean matching, normal), binary data (logistic regression), unordered categorical data (polytomous logistic regression) and ordered categorical data (proportional odds). MICE can also impute continuous two-level data (normal model, pan, second-level variables). Passive imputation can be used to maintain consistency between variables. Various diagnostic plots are available to inspect the quality of the imputations.

This package is an implementation of extensions to Freund and Schapire's AdaBoost algorithm and Friedman's gradient boosting machine. It includes regression methods for least squares, absolute loss, t-distribution loss, quantile regression, logistic, multinomial logistic, Poisson, Cox proportional hazards partial likelihood, AdaBoost exponential loss, Huberized hinge loss, and Learning to Rank measures (LambdaMart).

This package provides a straightforward, well-documented, and broad boosting routine for classification, ideally suited for small to moderate-sized data sets. It performs discrete, real, and gentle boost under both exponential and logistic loss on a given data set.

This package provides tools to check the latest release version of R and R packages (on CRAN, Bioconductor or Github).

This package provides the datasets to support the Fish Stock Assessment (FSA) package.

This package provides counterparts to R string manipulation functions that account for the effects of ANSI text formatting control sequences.

This package provides text and label geometries for ggplot2 that help to avoid overlapping text labels. Labels repel away from each other and away from the data points.

This package provides a unified parallelization framework for multiple backends. This package is designed for internal package and interactive usage. The main operation is parallel mapping over lists. It supports local, multicore, mpi and BatchJobs mode. It allows tagging of the parallel operation with a level name that can be later selected by the user to switch on parallel execution for exactly this operation.

The extrafont package makes it easier to use fonts other than the basic PostScript fonts that R uses. Fonts that are imported into extrafont can be used with PDF or PostScript output files. There are two hurdles for using fonts in PDF (or Postscript) output files:

1. Making R aware of the font and the dimensions of the characters.

2. Embedding the fonts in the PDF file so that the PDF can be displayed properly on a device that doesn't have the font. This is usually needed if you want to print the PDF file or share it with others.

The extrafont package makes both of these things easier.

This package provides syntax highlighting for R source code. Currently it supports LaTeX and HTML output. Source code of other languages is supported via Andre Simon's highlight package.

This package provides utility functions for easy parallelism in R. This includes some reexports from other packages, utility functions for splitting and parallelizing over blocks, and choosing and setting the number of cores used.

This package provides a set of simple functions that transforms longitudinal data to estimate the cosinor linear model as described in Tong (1976). Methods are given to summarize the mean, amplitude and acrophase, to predict the mean annual outcome value, and to test the coefficients.
