This package provides useful tools for cognitive diagnosis modeling (CDM). The package includes functions for empirical Q-matrix estimation and validation, such as the Hull method (Nájera, Sorrel, de la Torre, & Abad, 2021, <doi:10.1111/bmsp.12228>) and the discrete factor loading method (Wang, Song, & Ding, 2018, <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-77249-3_29>). It also contains dimensionality assessment procedures for CDM, including parallel analysis and automated fit comparison as explored in Nájera, Abad, and Sorrel (2021, <doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2021.614470>). Other relevant methods and features for CDM applications, such as the restricted DINA model (Nájera et al., 2023; <doi:10.3102/10769986231158829>), the general nonparametric classification method (Chiu et al., 2018; <doi:10.1007/s11336-017-9595-4>), and corrected estimation of the classification accuracy via multiple imputation (Kreitchmann et al., 2022; <doi:10.3758/s13428-022-01967-5>) are also available. Lastly, the package provides some useful functions for CDM simulation studies, such as random Q-matrix generation and detection of complete/identified Q-matrices.

This package provides an interface to the ClinicalOmicsDB API, allowing for easy data downloading and importing. ClinicalOmicsDB is a database of clinical and omics data from cancer patients. The database is accessible at <http://trials.linkedomics.org>.

Plots a set of x,y,z co-ordinates in a contour map. Designed to be similar to plots in base R so additional elements can be added using lines(), points() etc. This package is intended to be better suited, than existing packages, to displaying circular shaped plots such as those often seen in the semi-conductor industry.

Computes solutions for linear and logistic regression models with potentially high-dimensional categorical predictors. This is done by applying a nonconvex penalty (SCOPE) and computing solutions in an efficient path-wise fashion. The scaling of the solution paths is selected automatically. Includes functionality for selecting tuning parameter lambda by k-fold cross-validation and early termination based on information criteria. Solutions are computed by cyclical block-coordinate descent, iterating an innovative dynamic programming algorithm to compute exact solutions for each block.

Matrix-variate covariance estimation via the Kronecker-core decomposition. Computes the Kronecker and core covariance matrices corresponding to an arbitrary covariance matrix, and provides an empirical Bayes covariance estimator that adaptively shrinks towards the space of separable covariance matrices. For details, see Hoff, McCormack and Zhang (2022) <arXiv:2207.12484> "Core Shrinkage Covariance Estimation for Matrix-variate data".

Software to facilitates taking movement data in xyt format and pairing it with raster covariates within a continuous time Markov chain (CTMC) framework. As described in Hanks et al. (2015) <DOI:10.1214/14-AOAS803> , this allows flexible modeling of movement in response to covariates (or covariate gradients) with model fitting possible within a Poisson GLM framework.

This package provides a modified boxplot with a new fence coefficient determined by Lin et al. (2025). The traditional fence coefficient k=1.5 in Tukey's boxplot is replaced by a coefficient based on Chauvenet's criterion, as described in their formula (9). The new boxplot can be implemented in base R with function chau_boxplot(), and in ggplot2 with function geom_chau_boxplot().

The ConNEcT approach investigates the pairwise association strength of binary time series by calculating contingency measures and depicts the results in a network. The package includes features to explore and visualize the data. To calculate the pairwise concurrent or temporal sequenced relationship between the variables, the package provides seven contingency measures (proportion of agreement, classical & corrected Jaccard, Cohen's kappa, phi correlation coefficient, odds ratio, and log odds ratio), however, others can easily be implemented. The package also includes non-parametric significance tests, that can be applied to test whether the contingency value quantifying the relationship between the variables is significantly higher than chance level. Most importantly this test accounts for auto-dependence and relative frequency.See Bodner et al.(2021) <doi: 10.1111/bmsp.12222>.Finally, a network can be drawn. Variables depicted the nodes of the network, with the node size adapted to the prevalence. The association strength between the variables defines the undirected (concurrent) or directed (temporal sequenced) links between the nodes. The results of the non-parametric significance test can be included by depicting either all links or only the significant ones. Tutorial see Bodner et al.(2021) <doi:10.3758/s13428-021-01760-w>.

This package implements a method for identifying and removing the cell-cycle effect from scRNA-Seq data. The description of the method is in Barron M. and Li J. (2016) <doi:10.1038/srep33892>. Identifying and removing the cell-cycle effect from single-cell RNA-Sequencing data. Submitted. Different from previous methods, ccRemover implements a mechanism that formally tests whether a component is cell-cycle related or not, and thus while it often thoroughly removes the cell-cycle effect, it preserves other features/signals of interest in the data.

Analyzes spatial transcriptomic data using cells-by-genes and cell location matrices to find gene pairs that coordinate their expression between spatially adjacent cells. It enables quantitative analysis and graphical assessment of these cross-expression patterns. See Sarwar et al. (2025) <doi:10.1101/2024.09.17.613579> and <https://github.com/gillislab/CrossExpression/> for more details.

Quantify and visualise various measures of chemical diversity and dissimilarity, for phytochemical compounds and other sets of chemical composition data. Importantly, these measures can incorporate biosynthetic and/or structural properties of the chemical compounds, resulting in a more comprehensive quantification of diversity and dissimilarity. For details, see Petrén, Köllner and Junker (2023) <doi:10.1111/nph.18685>.

This package provides a comprehensive toolkit for political linguistics featuring a museum of famous digital gaffes, phonetic transformation algorithms (Soundex, consonant shifts), QWERTY keyboard geometry for typo simulation, syllable parsing, word blending (portmanteau creation), and text corruption analysis. Originally inspired by the infamous "covfefe" tweet of 2017.

Data recorded as paths or trajectories may be suitably described by curves, which are independent of their parametrization. For the space of such curves, the package provides functionalities for reading curves, sampling points on curves, calculating distance between curves and for computing Tukey curve depth of a curve w.r.t. to a bundle of curves. For details see Lafaye De Micheaux, Mozharovskyi, and Vimond (2021) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1901.00180>.

Auto, Cross and Multi-dimensional recurrence quantification analysis. Different methods for computing recurrence, cross vs. multidimensional or profile iti.e., only looking at the diagonal recurrent points, as well as functions for optimization and plotting are proposed. in-depth measures of the whole cross-recurrence plot, Please refer to Coco and others (2021) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-062>, Coco and Dale (2014) <doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00510> and Wallot (2018) <doi: 10.1080/00273171.2018.1512846> for further details about the method.

This package produces statistical indicators of the impact of migration on the socio-demographic composition of an area. Three measures can be used: ratios, percentages and the Duncan index of dissimilarity. The input data files are assumed to be in an origin-destination matrix format, with each cell representing a flow count between an origin and a destination area. Columns are expected to represent origins, and rows are expected to represent destinations. The first row and column are assumed to contain labels for each area. See Rodriguez-Vignoli and Rowe (2018) <doi:10.1080/00324728.2017.1416155> for technical details.

Calculate various cardiovascular disease risk scores from the Framingham Heart Study (FHS), the American College of Cardiology (ACC), and the American Heart Association (AHA) as described in Dâ agostino, et al (2008) <doi:10.1161/circulationaha.107.699579>, Goff, et al (2013) <doi:10.1161/01.cir.0000437741.48606.98>, and Mclelland, et al (2015) <doi:10.1016/j.jacc.2015.08.035>, and Khan, et al (2024) <doi:10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.123.067626>.

This package provides functions for loading large (10M+ lines) CSV and other delimited files, similar to read.csv, but typically faster and using less memory than the standard R loader. While not entirely general, it covers many common use cases when the types of columns in the CSV file are known in advance. In addition, the package provides a class int64', which represents 64-bit integers exactly when reading from a file. The latter is useful when working with 64-bit integer identifiers exported from databases. The CSV file loader supports common column types including integer', double', string', and int64', leaving further type transformations to the user.

Takes the outputs of a caret confusion matrix and allows for the quick conversion of these list items to lists. The intended usage is to allow the tool to work with the outputs of machine learning classification models. This tool works with classification problems for binary and multi-classification problems and allows for the record level conversion of the confusion matrix outputs. This is useful, as it allows quick conversion of these objects for storage in database systems and to track ML model performance over time. Traditionally, this approach has been used for highlighting model representation and feature slippage.
