This package implements a flexible, versatile, and computationally tractable model for density regression based on a single-weights dependent Dirichlet process mixture of normal distributions model for univariate continuous responses. The model assumes an additive structure for the mean of each mixture component and the effects of continuous covariates are captured through smooth nonlinear functions. The key components of our modelling approach are penalised B-splines and their bivariate tensor product extension. The proposed method can also easily deal with parametric effects of categorical covariates, linear effects of continuous covariates, interactions between categorical and/or continuous covariates, varying coefficient terms, and random effects. Please see Rodriguez-Alvarez, Inacio et al. (2025) for more details.

Non-iterative estimator for the cumulative distribution of a doubly truncated variable. de Uña-à lvarez J. (2018) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-73848-2_37>.

Includes various functions for playing drum sounds. beat() plays a drum sound from one of the six included drum kits. tempo() sets spacing between calls to beat() in bpm. Together the two functions can be used to create many different drum patterns.

An implementation of the differentiable lasso (dlasso) and SCAD (dSCAD) using iterative ridge algorithm. This package allows selecting the tuning parameter by AIC, BIC, GIC and GIC.

This package provides a modified hierarchical test (Liu (2017) <doi:10.1214/17-AOS1539>) for detecting the structural difference between two Semiparametric Gaussian graphical models. The multiple testing procedure asymptotically controls the false discovery rate (FDR) at a user-specified level. To construct the test statistic, a truncated estimator is used to approximate the transformation functions and two R functions including lassoGGM() and lassoNPN() are provided to compute the lasso estimates of the regression coefficients.

Models for detecting concreteness in natural language. This package is built in support of Yeomans (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.obhdp.2020.10.008>, which reviews linguistic models of concreteness in several domains. Here, we provide an implementation of the best-performing domain-general model (from Brysbaert et al., (2014) <doi:10.3758/s13428-013-0403-5>) as well as two pre-trained models for the feedback and plan-making domains.

This package provides tools for describing parameters of algorithms in an abstract way. Description can include an id, a description, a domain (range or list of values), and a default value. dynparam can also convert parameter sets to a ParamHelpers format, in order to be able to use dynparam in conjunction with mlrMBO'.

The purpose of this package is to provide a comprehensive R interface to the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer Cropping Systems Model (DSSAT-CSM; see <https://dssat.net> for more information). The package provides cross-platform functions to read and write input files, run DSSAT-CSM, and read output files.

Decodes meshes and point cloud data encoded by the Draco mesh compression library from Google. Note that this is only designed for basic decoding and not intended as a full scale wrapping of the Draco library.

This MCMC method takes a data numeric vector (Y) and assigns the elements of Y to a (potentially infinite) number of normal distributions. The individual normal distributions from a mixture of normals can be inferred. Following the method described in Escobar (1994) <doi:10.2307/2291223> we use a Dirichlet Process Prior (DPP) to describe stochastically our prior assumptions about the dimensionality of the data.

This package provides tools for exploration of R package dependencies. The main deepdep() function allows to acquire deep dependencies of any package and plot them in an elegant way. It also adds some popularity measures for the packages e.g. in the form of download count through the cranlogs package. Uses the CRAN metadata database <http://crandb.r-pkg.org> and Bioconductor metadata <https://bioconductor.org>. Other data acquire functions are: get_dependencies(), get_downloads() and get_description(). The deepdep_shiny() function runs shiny application that helps to produce a nice deepdep plot.

This package provides a collection of utility functions.

Ecological Metadata Language or EML is a long-established format for describing ecological datasets to facilitate sharing and re-use. Because EML is effectively a modified xml schema, however, it is challenging to write and manipulate for non-expert users. delma supports users to write metadata statements in R Markdown or Quarto markdown format, and parse them to EML and (optionally) back again.

Load configuration from a .env file, that is in the current working directory, into environment variables.

This package provides a software package for using DEXi models. DEXi models are hierarchical qualitative multi-criteria decision models developed according to the method DEX (Decision EXpert, <https://dex.ijs.si/documentation/DEX_Method/DEX_Method.html>), using the program DEXi (<https://kt.ijs.si/MarkoBohanec/dexi.html>) or DEXiWin (<https://dex.ijs.si/dexisuite/dexiwin.html>). A typical workflow with DEXiR consists of: (1) reading a .dxi file, previously made using the DEXi software (function read_dexi()), (2) making a data frame containing input values of one or more decision alternatives, (3) evaluating those alternatives (function evaluate()), (4) analyzing alternatives (selective_explanation(), plus_minus(), compare_alternatives()), (5) drawing charts. DEXiR is restricted to using models produced externally by the DEXi software and does not provide functionality for creating and/or editing DEXi models directly in R'.

Discrete factor analysis for dependent Poisson and negative binomial models with truncation, zero inflation, and zero inflated truncation.

This package provides a set of pricing and expository functions that should be useful in teaching a course on financial derivatives.

Graphical methods for compactly illustrating probability distributions, including density strips, density regions, sectioned density plots and varying width strips, using base R graphics. Note that the ggdist package offers a similar set of tools for illustrating distributions, based on ggplot2'.

Various diffusion models to forecast new product growth. Currently the package contains Bass, Gompertz, Gamma/Shifted Gompertz and Weibull curves. See Meade and Islam (2006) <doi:10.1016/j.ijforecast.2006.01.005>.

First using dada2 R tools to analyse metabarcode data, the DBTC package then uses the BLAST algorithm to search unknown sequences against local databases, and then takes reduced matched results and provides best taxonomic assignments.

This package creates discretised versions of continuous distribution functions by mapping continuous values to an underlying discrete grid, based on a (uniform) frequency of discretisation, a valid discretisation point, and an integration range. For a review of discretisation methods, see Chakraborty (2015) <doi:10.1186/s40488-015-0028-6>.

Shows you which rows have changed between two data frames with the same column structure. Useful for diffing slowly mutating data.

This package creates a data frame containing the metadata associated with the documentation of a collection of R packages. It allows for linking topic names to their corresponding documentation online. If you maintain a universe meta-package, it helps create a comprehensive reference for its website.

Estimation of incidence and case fatality for a chronic disease, given partial information, using a multi-state model. Given data on age-specific mortality and either incidence or prevalence, Bayesian inference is used to estimate the posterior distributions of incidence, case fatality, and functions of these such as prevalence. The methods are described in Jackson et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/jrsssa/qnac015>.
