Standard generalized additive models assume a response function, which induces an assumption on the shape of the distribution of the response. However, miss-specifying the response function results in biased estimates. Therefore in Spiegel et al. (2017) <doi:10.1007/s11222-017-9799-6> we propose to estimate the response function jointly with the covariate effects. This package provides the underlying functions to estimate these generalized additive models with flexible response functions. The estimation is based on an iterative algorithm. In the outer loop the response function is estimated, while in the inner loop the covariate effects are determined. For the response function a strictly monotone P-spline is used while the covariate effects are estimated based on a modified Fisher-Scoring algorithm. Overall the estimation relies on the mgcv'-package.

This package provides functions for range estimation in birds based on Pennycuick (2008) and Pennycuick (1975), Flight program which compliments Pennycuick (2008) requires manual entry of birds which can be tedious when there are thousands of birds to estimate. Implemented are two ODE methods discussed in Pennycuick (1975) and time-marching computation method "constant muscle mass" as in Pennycuick (1998). See Pennycuick (1975, ISBN:978-0-12-249405-5), Pennycuick (1998) <doi:10.1006/jtbi.1997.0572>, and Pennycuick (2008, ISBN:9780080557816).

This package provides a tool for spatial/spatio-temporal modelling and prediction with large datasets. The approach models the field, and hence the covariance function, using a set of basis functions. This fixed-rank basis-function representation facilitates the modelling of big data, and the method naturally allows for non-stationary, anisotropic covariance functions. Discretisation of the spatial domain into so-called basic areal units (BAUs) facilitates the use of observations with varying support (i.e., both point-referenced and areal supports, potentially simultaneously), and prediction over arbitrary user-specified regions. `FRK` also supports inference over various manifolds, including the 2D plane and 3D sphere, and it provides helper functions to model, fit, predict, and plot with relative ease. Version 2.0.0 and above also supports the modelling of non-Gaussian data (e.g., Poisson, binomial, negative-binomial, gamma, and inverse-Gaussian) by employing a generalised linear mixed model (GLMM) framework. Zammit-Mangion and Cressie <doi:10.18637/jss.v098.i04> describe `FRK` in a Gaussian setting, and detail its use of basis functions and BAUs, while Sainsbury-Dale, Zammit-Mangion, and Cressie <doi:10.18637/jss.v108.i10> describe `FRK` in a non-Gaussian setting; two vignettes are available that summarise these papers and provide additional examples.

This package provides functions for calculating various measures of foreign policy similarity or association commonly used in the study of international relations. These include Signorino and Ritter's S statistic (weighted and unweighted), Cohen's weighted kappa, Scott's pi, and Kendall's tau-b. The package facilitates the generation of dyadic similarity scores for empirical analyses and can also serve as an educational resource for understanding how such measures are derived.

This package creates dynamic grid layouts of images that can be included in Shiny applications and R markdown documents.

Extends data.table join functionality, lets it work with any data frame class, and provides a familiar x'/'y'-style interface, enabling broad use across R. Offers NA-safe matching by default, on-the-fly column selection, multiple match-handling on both sides, x or y row order, and a row origin indicator. Performs inner, left, right, full, semi- and anti-joins with equality and inequality conditions, plus cross joins. Specific support for data.table', (grouped) tibble, and sf'/'sfc objects and their attributes; returns a plain data frame otherwise. Avoids data-copying of inputs and outputs. Allows displaying the data.table code instead of (or as well as) executing it.

Functional clustering aims to group curves exhibiting similar temporal behaviour and to obtain representative curves summarising the typical dynamics within each cluster. A key challenge in this setting is class imbalance, where some clusters contain substantially more curves than others, which can adversely affect clustering performance. While class imbalance has been extensively studied in supervised classification, it has received comparatively little attention in unsupervised clustering. This package implements functional iterative hierarchical clustering ('funIHC'), an adaptation of the iterative hierarchical clustering method originally developed for multivariate data, to the functional data setting. For further details, please see Higgins and Carey (2024) <doi:10.1007/s11634-024-00611-8>.

This package provides a Bayesian Nonparametric model for the study of time-evolving frequencies, which has become renowned in the study of population genetics. The model consists of a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) in which the latent signal is a distribution-valued stochastic process that takes the form of a finite mixture of Dirichlet Processes, indexed by vectors that count how many times each value is observed in the population. The package implements methodologies presented in Ascolani, Lijoi and Ruggiero (2021) <doi:10.1214/20-BA1206> and Ascolani, Lijoi and Ruggiero (2023) <doi:10.3150/22-BEJ1504> that make it possible to study the process at the time of data collection or to predict its evolution in future or in the past.

(2001) <doi:10.1214/aos/1013203451>), accumulated local effects (Apley D. W. (2016) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1612.08468>), further effects plots, interaction strength, and variable contribution breakdown (Gosiewska and Biecek (2019) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1903.11420>). All tools are implemented to work with case weights and allow for stratified analysis. Furthermore, multiple flashlights can be combined and analyzed together.

This package implements shape-based clustering algorithms for multidimensional longitudinal data based on the Fréchet distance. It implements two main methods: MFKmL (Multidimensional Fréchet distance-based K-means for Longitudinal data), an extension of the K-means algorithm using the Fréchet distance originally developed in the kmlShape package, adapted for multidimensional trajectories; and SFKmL (Sparse multidimensional Fréchet distance-based K-medoids for Longitudinal data), a K-medoids-based clustering algorithm that incorporates variable selection. These tools are designed to enhance clustering performance in high-dimensional longitudinal data settings, particularly those with time delays, variations in trajectory speed, irregular sampling intervals, and noise. This package implements methods derived from Kang et al. (2023) <doi:10.1007/s11222-023-10237-z>.

This is a method for Allele-specific DNA Copy Number Profiling using Next-Generation Sequencing. Given the allele-specific coverage at the variant loci, this program segments the genome into regions of homogeneous allele-specific copy number. It requires, as input, the read counts for each variant allele in a pair of case and control samples. For detection of somatic mutations, the case and control samples can be the tumor and normal sample from the same individual.
