In the Cramérâ Lundberg risk process perturbed by a Wiener process, this packages provides approximations to the probability of ruin within a finite time horizon. Currently, there are three methods implemented: The first one uses saddlepoint approximation (two variants are provided), the second one uses importance sampling and the third one is based on the simulation of a dual process. This last method is not very accurate and only given here for completeness.

The main functions in this package are with_cache() and cached_read(). The former is a simple way to cache an R object into a file on disk, using cachem'. The latter is a wrapper around any standard read function, but caches both the output and the file list info. If the input file list info hasn't changed, the cache is used; otherwise, the original files are re-read. This can save time if the original operation requires reading from many files, and/or involves lots of processing.

This package provides a toolbox to derive flexible cutoffs for fit indices in Covariance-based Structural Equation Modeling based on the paper by Niemand & Mai (2018) <doi:10.1007/s11747-018-0602-9>. Flexible cutoffs are an alternative to fixed cutoffs - rules-of-thumb - regarding an appropriate cutoff for fit indices such as CFI or SRMR'. It has been demonstrated that these flexible cutoffs perform better than fixed cutoffs in grey areas where misspecification is not easy to detect. The package provides an alternative to the tool at <https://flexiblecutoffs.org> as it allows to tailor flexible cutoffs to a given dataset and model, which is so far not available in the tool. The package simulates fit indices based on a given dataset and model and then estimates the flexible cutoffs. Some useful functions, e.g., to determine the GoF- or BoF-nature of a fit index, are provided. So far, additional options for a relative use (is a model better than another?) are provided in an exploratory manner.

This package provides methods and tools designed to improve the forecast accuracy for a linearly constrained multiple time series, while fulfilling the linear/aggregation relationships linking the components (Girolimetto and Di Fonzo, 2024 <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2412.03429>). FoCo2 offers multi-task forecast combination and reconciliation approaches leveraging input from multiple forecasting models or experts and ensuring that the resulting forecasts satisfy specified linear constraints. In addition, linear inequality constraints (e.g., non-negativity of the forecasts) can be imposed, if needed.

An implementation of various learning algorithms based on fuzzy rule-based systems (FRBSs) for dealing with classification and regression tasks. Moreover, it allows to construct an FRBS model defined by human experts. FRBSs are based on the concept of fuzzy sets, proposed by Zadeh in 1965, which aims at representing the reasoning of human experts in a set of IF-THEN rules, to handle real-life problems in, e.g., control, prediction and inference, data mining, bioinformatics data processing, and robotics. FRBSs are also known as fuzzy inference systems and fuzzy models. During the modeling of an FRBS, there are two important steps that need to be conducted: structure identification and parameter estimation. Nowadays, there exists a wide variety of algorithms to generate fuzzy IF-THEN rules automatically from numerical data, covering both steps. Approaches that have been used in the past are, e.g., heuristic procedures, neuro-fuzzy techniques, clustering methods, genetic algorithms, squares methods, etc. Furthermore, in this version we provide a universal framework named frbsPMML', which is adopted from the Predictive Model Markup Language (PMML), for representing FRBS models. PMML is an XML-based language to provide a standard for describing models produced by data mining and machine learning algorithms. Therefore, we are allowed to export and import an FRBS model to/from frbsPMML'. Finally, this package aims to implement the most widely used standard procedures, thus offering a standard package for FRBS modeling to the R community.

This package contains functions for operations with fuzzy cognitive maps using t-norm and s-norm operators. T-norms and S-norms are described by Dov M. Gabbay and George Metcalfe (2007) <doi:10.1007/s00153-007-0047-1>. System indicators are described by Cox, Earl D. (1995) <isbn:1886801010>. Executable examples are provided in the "inst/examples" folder.

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>.
