Fit Elastic Net, Lasso, and Ridge regression and do cross-validation in a fast way. We build the algorithm based on Least Angle Regression by Bradley Efron, Trevor Hastie, Iain Johnstone, etc. (2004)(<doi:10.1214/009053604000000067 >) and some algorithms like Givens rotation and Forward/Back Substitution. In this way, many matrices to be computed are retained as triangular matrices which can eventually speed up the computation. The fitting algorithm for Elastic Net is written in C++ using Armadillo linear algebra library.

This package provides a small subset of plots throughout the U.S. are sampled and assessed "on-the-ground" as forested or non-forested by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) Program, but the FIA also has access to remotely sensed data for all land in the country. The forested package contains data frames intended for use in predictive modeling applications where the more easily-accessible remotely sensed data can be used to predict whether a plot is forested or non-forested. Currently, the package provides data for Washington and Georgia.

This package provides quick and easy access to official spatial data from Germanyâ s Federal Agency for Cartography and Geodesy (BKG) <https://gdz.bkg.bund.de/>. Interfaces various web feature services (WFS) and download servers. Allows retrieval, caching and filtering with a wide range of open geodata products, including administrative or non-administrative boundaries, land cover, elevation models, geographic names, and points of interest covering Germany. Can be particularly useful for linking regional statistics to their spatial representations and streamlining workflows that involve spatial data of Germany.

Compare variables of interest between (potentially large numbers of) spatial interactions and meta-variables. Spatial variables are summarized using K, or other, functions, and projected for use in a modified random forest model. The model allows comparison of functional and non-functional variables to each other and to noise, giving statistical significance to the results. Included are preparation, modeling, and interpreting tools along with example datasets, as described in VanderDoes et al., (2023) <doi:10.1101/2023.07.18.549619>.

Shiny app for the fdapace package.

This package provides a set of helper functions for constructing file paths relative to the root of various types of projects, such as R packages, Git repositories, and more. File paths are specified with function arguments, or `$` to navigate into folders to specific files supported by auto-completion.

Lognormal models have broad applications in various research areas such as economics, actuarial science, biology, environmental science and psychology. The estimation problem in lognormal models has been extensively studied. This R package fuel implements thirty-nine existing and newly proposed estimators. See Zhang, F., and Gou, J. (2020), A unified framework for estimation in lognormal models, Technical report.

Fits Weibull or sigmoidal models to percent loss conductivity (plc) curves as a function of plant water potential, computes confidence intervals of parameter estimates and predictions with bootstrap or parametric methods, and provides convenient plotting methods.

Calculate the final size of a susceptible-infectious-recovered epidemic in a population with demographic variation in contact patterns and susceptibility to disease, as discussed in Miller (2012) <doi:10.1007/s11538-012-9749-6>.

Implementation of fused Markov graphical model (FMGM; Park and Won, 2022). The functions include building mixed graphical model (MGM) objects from data, inference of networks using FMGM, stable edge-specific penalty selection (StEPS) for the determination of penalization parameters, and the visualization.

This package provides access to a range of functions for computing and visualizing the Full Bayesian Significance Test (FBST) and the e-value for testing a sharp hypothesis against its alternative, and the Full Bayesian Evidence Test (FBET) and the (generalized) Bayesian evidence value for testing a composite (or interval) hypothesis against its alternative. The methods are widely applicable as long as a posterior MCMC sample is available.

The FLEX method, developed by Yoon and Choi (2013) <doi:10.1007/978-3-642-33042-1_21>, performs least squares estimation for fuzzy predictors and outcomes, generating crisp regression coefficients by minimizing the distance between observed and predicted outcomes. It also provides functions for fuzzifying data and inference tasks, including significance testing, fit indices, and confidence interval estimation.
