This package provides optimal combinations of input nodes and hidden neurons for fitting feedforward single-layer artificial neural networks in time series forecasting. Models are evaluated using root mean square error, mean absolute percentage error, and mean absolute error measures.

Assess whether and how a specific continuous or categorical exposure affects the outcome of interest through one- or multi-dimensional mediators using an adaptive bootstrap (AB) approach. The AB method allows to make inference for composite null hypotheses of no mediation effect, providing valid type I error control and thus optimizes statistical power.

In social and educational settings, the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a challenging task. Relevant data is often only available in handwritten forms, or the use of data is restricted by privacy policies. This often leads to small data sets. Furthermore, in the educational and social sciences, data is often unbalanced in terms of frequencies. To support educators as well as educational and social researchers in using the potentials of AI for their work, this package provides a unified interface for neural nets in PyTorch to deal with natural language problems. In addition, the package ships with a shiny app, providing a graphical user interface. This allows the usage of AI for people without skills in writing python/R scripts. The tools integrate existing mathematical and statistical methods for dealing with small data sets via pseudo-labeling (e.g. Cascante-Bonilla et al. (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2001.06001>) and imbalanced data via the creation of synthetic cases (e.g. Islam et al. (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.asoc.2021.108288>). Performance evaluation of AI is connected to measures from content analysis which educational and social researchers are generally more familiar with (e.g. Berding & Pargmann (2022) <doi:10.30819/5581>, Gwet (2014) <ISBN:978-0-9708062-8-4>, Krippendorff (2019) <doi:10.4135/9781071878781>). Estimation of energy consumption and CO2 emissions during model training is done with the python library codecarbon'. Finally, all objects created with this package allow to share trained AI models with other people.

All animal behaviour occurs sequentially. The package has a number of functions to format sequence data from different sources, to analyse sequential behaviour and communication in animals. It also has functions to plot the data and to calculate the entropy of sequences.

This package implements the methodology introduced in Capezza, Lepore, and Paynabar (2025) <doi:10.1080/00401706.2025.2561744> for process monitoring with limited labeling resources. The package provides functions to (i) simulate data streams with true latent states and multivariate Gaussian observations as done in the paper, (ii) fit partially hidden Markov models (pHMMs) using a constrained Baum-Welch algorithm with partial labels, and (iii) perform stream-based active learning that balances exploration and exploitation to decide whether to request labels in real time. The methodology is particularly suited for statistical process monitoring in industrial applications where labeling is costly.

This package provides a (mildly) opinionated set of functions to help assess medication adherence for researchers working with medication claims data. Medication adherence analyses have several complex steps that are often convoluted and can be time-intensive. The focus is to create a set of functions using "tidy principles" geared towards transparency, speed, and flexibility while working with adherence metrics. All functions perform exactly one task with an intuitive name so that a researcher can handle details (often achieved with vectorized solutions) while we handle non-vectorized tasks common to most adherence calculations such as adjusting fill dates and determining episodes of care. The methodologies in referenced in this package come from Canfield SL, et al (2019) "Navigating the Wild West of Medication Adherence Reporting in Specialty Pharmacy" <doi:10.18553/jmcp.2019.25.10.1073>.

Exclusion-based parentage assignment is essential for studies in biodiversity conservation and breeding programs - Kang Huang, Rui Mi, Derek W Dunn, Tongcheng Wang, Baoguo Li, (2018), <doi:10.1534/genetics.118.301592>. The tool compares multilocus genotype data of potential parents and offspring, identifying likely parentage relationships while accounting for genotyping errors, missing data, and duplicate genotypes. acoRn includes two algorithms: one generates synthetic genotype data based on user-defined parameters, while the other analyzes existing genotype data to identify parentage patterns. The package is versatile, applicable to diverse organisms, and offers clear visual outputs, making it a valuable resource for researchers.

Analyzes autocorrelation and partial autocorrelation using surrogate methods and bootstrapping, and computes the acceleration constants for the vectorized moving block bootstrap provided by this package. It generates percentile, bias-corrected, and accelerated intervals and estimates partial autocorrelations using Durbin-Levinson. This package calculates the autocorrelation power spectrum, computes cross-correlations between two time series, computes bandwidth for any time series, and performs autocorrelation frequency analysis. It also calculates the periodicity of a time series.

The package currently provides two R Markdown templates for homework and theses at the Psychology Department of the University of Cologne. The package builds on the package papaja but is tailored to the requirements of student theses and omits features for simplicity.

The posterior simulation is performed using arm::sim as described in Gelman, Hill (2012) <doi:10.1017/CBO9780511790942> and the attributable burden method is based on Nielsen, Krause, Molbak <doi:10.1111/irv.12564>.

ATPOL is a rectangular grid system used for botanical studies in Poland. The ATPOL grid was developed in Institute of Botany, Jagiellonian University, Krakow, Poland in 70. Since then it is widely used to represent distribution of plants in Poland. atpolR provides functions to translate geographic coordinates to the grid and vice versa. It also allows to create a choreograph map.
