Generation of bioclimatic rasters that are complementary to the typical 19 bioclim variables.

Speed up common tasks, particularly logical or relational comparisons and routine follow up tasks such as finding the indices and subsetting. Inspired by mathematics, where something like: 3 < x < 6 is a standard, elegant and clear way to assert that x is both greater than 3 and less than 6 (see for example <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relational_operator>), a chaining operator is implemented. The chaining operator, %c%, allows multiple relational operations to be used in quotes on the right hand side for the same object, on the left hand side. The %e% operator allows something like set-builder notation (see for example <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set-builder_notation>) to be used on the right hand side. All operators have built in prefixes defined for all, subset, and which to reduce the amount of code needed for common tasks, such as return those values that are true.

This package provides functions supporting the reading and parsing of internal e-book content from EPUB files. The epubr package provides functions supporting the reading and parsing of internal e-book content from EPUB files. E-book metadata and text content are parsed separately and joined together in a tidy, nested tibble data frame. E-book formatting is not completely standardized across all literature. It can be challenging to curate parsed e-book content across an arbitrary collection of e-books perfectly and in completely general form, to yield a singular, consistently formatted output. Many EPUB files do not even contain all the same pieces of information in their respective metadata. EPUB file parsing functionality in this package is intended for relatively general application to arbitrary EPUB e-books. However, poorly formatted e-books or e-books with highly uncommon formatting may not work with this package. There may even be cases where an EPUB file has DRM or some other property that makes it impossible to read with epubr'. Text is read as is for the most part. The only nominal changes are minor substitutions, for example curly quotes changed to straight quotes. Substantive changes are expected to be performed subsequently by the user as part of their text analysis. Additional text cleaning can be performed at the user's discretion, such as with functions from packages like tm or qdap'.

This package provides tools for accessing and analyzing eBird Status and Trends Data Products (<https://science.ebird.org/en/status-and-trends>). eBird (<https://ebird.org/home>) is a global database of bird observations collected by member of the public. eBird Status and Trends uses these data to model global bird distributions, abundances, and population trends at a high spatial and temporal resolution.

Replication methods to compute some basic statistic operations (means, standard deviations, frequency tables, percentiles, mean comparisons using weighted effect coding, generalized linear models, and linear multilevel models) in complex survey designs comprising multiple imputed or nested imputed variables and/or a clustered sampling structure which both deserve special procedures at least in estimating standard errors. See the package documentation for a more detailed description along with references.

This package provides functions to facilitate the use of the ff package in interaction with big data in SQL databases (e.g. in Oracle', MySQL', PostgreSQL', Hive') by allowing easy importing directly into ffdf objects using DBI', RODBC and RJDBC'. Also contains some basic utility functions to do fast left outer join merging based on match', factorisation of data and a basic function for re-coding vectors.

The EXPOS model uses a digital elevation model (DEM) to estimate exposed and protected areas for a given hurricane wind direction and inflection angle. The resulting topographic exposure maps can be combined with output from the HURRECON model to estimate hurricane wind damage across a region. For details on the original version of the EXPOS model written in Borland Pascal', see: Boose, Foster, and Fluet (1994) <doi:10.2307/2937142>, Boose, Chamberlin, and Foster (2001) <doi:10.1890/0012-9615(2001)071[0027:LARIOH]2.0.CO;2>, and Boose, Serrano, and Foster (2004) <doi:10.1890/02-4057>.

Provide estimation and data generation tools for new multivariate frailty models. This version includes the gamma, inverse Gaussian, weighted Lindley, Birnbaum-Saunders, truncated normal, mixture of inverse Gaussian, mixture of Birnbaum-Saunders, generalized exponential and Jorgensen-Seshadri-Whitmore as the distribution for frailty terms. For the basal model, it is considered a parametric approach based on the exponential, Weibull and the piecewise exponential distributions as well as a semiparametric approach. For details, see Gallardo et al. (2024) <doi:10.1007/s11222-024-10458-w>, Gallardo et al. (2025) <doi:10.1002/bimj.70044>, Kiprotich et al. (2025) <doi:10.1177/09622802251338984> and Gallardo et al.

Routines for combining causal effect estimates and study diagnostics across multiple data sites in a distributed study, without sharing patient-level data. Allows for normal and non-normal approximations of the data-site likelihood of the effect parameter.

Datasets from most recent CCIIO DIY entry in a tidy format. These support the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) risk adjustment Do-It-Yourself (DIY) process, which allows health insurance issuers to calculate member risk profiles under the Health and Human Services-Hierarchical Condition Categories (HHS-HCC) regression model. This regression model is used to calculate risk adjustment transfers. Risk adjustment is a selection mitigation program implemented under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA or Obamacare) in the USA. Under the ACA, health insurance issuers submit claims data to CMS in order for CMS to calculate a risk score under the HHS-HCC regression model. However, CMS does not inform issuers of their average risk score until after the data submission deadline. These data sets can be used by issuers to calculate their average risk score mid-year. More information about risk adjustment and the HHS-HCC model can be found here: <https://www.cms.gov/mmrr/Articles/A2014/MMRR2014_004_03_a03.html>.

Calculates exact tests and confidence intervals for one-sample binomial and one- or two-sample Poisson cases (see Fay (2010) <doi:10.32614/rj-2010-008>).

This package provides functions for estimating plant pathogen parameters from access period (AP) experiments. Separate functions are implemented for semi-persistently transmitted (SPT) and persistently transmitted (PT) pathogens. The common AP experiment exposes insect cohorts to infected source plants, healthy test plants, and intermediate plants (for PT pathogens). The package allows estimation of acquisition and inoculation rates during feeding, recovery rates, and latent progression rates (for PT pathogens). Additional functions support inference of epidemic risk from pathogen and local parameters, and also simulate AP experiment data. The functions implement probability models for epidemiological analysis, as derived in Donnelly et al. (2025), <doi:10.32942/X29K9P>. These models were originally implemented in the EpiPv GitHub package.
