Implementation of the double/debiased machine learning framework of Chernozhukov et al. (2018) <doi:10.1111/ectj.12097> for partially linear regression models, partially linear instrumental variable regression models, interactive regression models and interactive instrumental variable regression models. DoubleML allows estimation of the nuisance parts in these models by machine learning methods and computation of the Neyman orthogonal score functions. DoubleML is built on top of mlr3 and the mlr3 ecosystem. The object-oriented implementation of DoubleML based on the R6 package is very flexible.

This package provides a distributed framework for simulating and estimating skew factor models under various skewed and heavy-tailed distributions. The methods support distributed data generation, aggregation of local estimators, and evaluation of estimation performance via mean squared error, relative error, and sparsity measures. The distributed principal component (PC) estimators implemented in the package include IPC (Independent Principal Component),'PPC (Project Principal Component), SPC (Sparse Principal Component), and other related distributed PC methods. The methodological background follows Guo G. (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00180-022-01270-z>.

The gap statistic approach is extended to estimate the number of clusters for categorical response format data. This approach and accompanying software is designed to be used with the output of any clustering algorithm and with distances specifically designed for categorical (i.e. multiple choice) or ordinal survey response data.

Deep Gaussian mixture models as proposed by Viroli and McLachlan (2019) <doi:10.1007/s11222-017-9793-z> provide a generalization of classical Gaussian mixtures to multiple layers. Each layer contains a set of latent variables that follow a mixture of Gaussian distributions. To avoid overparameterized solutions, dimension reduction is applied at each layer by way of factor models.

Cluster-randomized trials (CRTs) assign treatment to groups rather than individuals, so valid analyses must distinguish cluster-level and individual-level effects and define estimands within a potential-outcomes framework. This package supports right-censored survival outcomes for both single-state (binary) and multi-state settings. For single-state outcomes, it provides estimands based on stage-specific survival contrasts (SPCE) and restricted mean survival time (RMST). For multi-state outcomes, it provides SPCE as well as a generalized win-based restricted mean time-in-favor estimand (RMT-IF). The package implements doubly robust estimators that accommodate covariate-dependent censoring and remain consistent if either the outcome model or the censoring model is correctly specified. Users can choose marginal Cox or gamma-frailty Cox working models for nuisance estimation, and inference is supported via leave-one-cluster-out jackknife variance and confidence interval estimation. Methods are described in Fang et al. (2025) "Estimands and doubly robust estimation for cluster-randomized trials with survival outcomes" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2510.08438>.

Learning and inference over dynamic Bayesian networks of arbitrary Markovian order. Extends some of the functionality offered by the bnlearn package to learn the networks from data and perform exact inference. It offers three structure learning algorithms for dynamic Bayesian networks: Trabelsi G. (2013) <doi:10.1007/978-3-642-41398-8_34>, Santos F.P. and Maciel C.D. (2014) <doi:10.1109/BRC.2014.6880957>, Quesada D., Bielza C. and Larrañaga P. (2021) <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-86271-8_14>. It also offers the possibility to perform forecasts of arbitrary length. A tool for visualizing the structure of the net is also provided via the visNetwork package.

Basic time series functionalities such as listing of missing values, application of arbitrary aggregation as well as rolling (asymmetric) window functions and automatic detection of periodicity. As it is mainly based on data.table', it is fast and (in combination with the R6 package) offers reference semantics. In addition to its native R6 interface, it provides an S3 interface for those who prefer the latter. Finally yet importantly, its functional approach allows for incorporating functionalities from many other packages.
