Interface to Eurostatâ s API (SDMX 2.1) with fast data.table-based import of data, labels, and metadata. On top of the core functionality, data search and data description/comparison functions are also provided. Use <https://github.com/alekrutkowski/eurodata_codegen> â a point-and-click app for rapid and easy generation of richly-commented R code â to import a Eurostat dataset or its subset (based on the eurodata::importData() function).

Instead of counting observations before and after a subset() call, the ExclusionTable() function reports the number before and after each subset() call together with the number of observations that have been excluded. This is especially useful in observational studies for keeping track how many observations have been excluded for each in-/ or exclusion criteria. You just need to provide ExclusionTable() with a dataset and a list of logical filter statements.

This package provides the analysis of variance table including the expected mean squares (EMS) for various types of experimental design. When some variables are random effects or we use special experimental design such as nested design, repeated-measures design, or split-plot design, it is not easy to find the appropriate test, especially denominator for F-statistic which depends on EMS.

This package implements species distribution modeling and ecological niche modeling, including: bias correction, spatial cross-validation, model evaluation, raster interpolation, biotic "velocity" (speed and direction of movement of a "mass" represented by a raster), interpolating across a time series of rasters, and use of spatially imprecise records. The heart of the package is a set of "training" functions which automatically optimize model complexity based number of available occurrences. These algorithms include MaxEnt, MaxNet, boosted regression trees/gradient boosting machines, generalized additive models, generalized linear models, natural splines, and random forests. To enhance interoperability with other modeling packages, no new classes are created. The package works with PROJ6 geodetic objects and coordinate reference systems.

Expectile and quantile regression of models with nonlinear effects e.g. spatial, random, ridge using least asymmetric weighed squares / absolutes as well as boosting; also supplies expectiles for common distributions.

This package provides a light, simple tool for sending emails with minimal dependencies.

This package produces diversity estimates and species lists with associated global distribution for any vascular plant family and genus from Plants of the World Online database <https://powo.science.kew.org/>, by interacting with the source code of each plant taxon page. It also creates global maps of species richness, graphics of species discoveries and name changes over time.

Estimate a total causal effect from observational data under linearity and causal sufficiency. The observational data is supposed to be generated from a linear structural equation model (SEM) with independent and additive noise. The underlying causal DAG associated the SEM is required to be known up to a maximally oriented partially directed graph (MPDAG), which is a general class of graphs consisting of both directed and undirected edges, including CPDAGs (i.e., essential graphs) and DAGs. Such graphs are usually obtained with structure learning algorithms with added background knowledge. The program is able to estimate every identified effect, including single and multiple treatment variables. Moreover, the resulting estimate has the minimal asymptotic covariance (and hence shortest confidence intervals) among all estimators that are based on the sample covariance.

This package contains additional miscellaneous steps for the recipes package. These steps are useful, but doesn't have a good home in other recipes packages or its extensions.

Reproducibility assessment is essential in extracting reliable scientific insights from high-throughput experiments. While the Irreproducibility Discovery Rate (IDR) method has been instrumental in assessing reproducibility, its standard implementation is constrained to handling only two replicates. Package eCV introduces an enhanced Coefficient of Variation (eCV) metric to assess the likelihood of omic features being reproducible. Additionally, it offers alternatives to the Irreproducible Discovery Rate (IDR) calculations for multi-replicate experiments. These tools are valuable for analyzing high-throughput data in genomics and other omics fields. The methods implemented in eCV are described in Gonzalez-Reymundez et al., (2023) <doi:10.1101/2023.12.18.572208>.

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.

Support for measurement errors in R vectors, matrices and arrays: automatic uncertainty propagation and reporting. Documentation about errors is provided in the paper by Ucar, Pebesma & Azcorra (2018, <doi:10.32614/RJ-2018-075>), included in this package as a vignette; see citation("errors") for details.

An index measuring the amount of information brought by forecasts for extreme events, subject to calibration, is computed. This index is originally designed for weather or climate forecasts, but it may be used in other forecasting contexts. This is the implementation of the index in Taillardat et al. (2019) <arXiv:1905.04022>.

Analysing data from evaluations of educational interventions using a randomised controlled trial design. Various analytical tools to perform sensitivity analysis using different methods are supported (e.g. frequentist models with bootstrapping and permutations options, Bayesian models). The included commands can be used for simple randomised trials, cluster randomised trials and multisite trials. The methods can also be used more widely beyond education trials. This package can be used to evaluate other intervention designs using Frequentist and Bayesian multilevel models.
