This package implements maximum likelihood estimation for Gaussian processes, supporting both isotropic and separable models with predictive capabilities. Includes penalized likelihood estimation following Li and Sudjianto (2005, <doi:10.1198/004017004000000671>), with cross-validation guided by decorrelated prediction error (DPE) metric. DPE metric, motivated by Mahalanobis distance, serves as evaluation criteria that accounts for predictive uncertainty in tuning parameter selection (Mutoh, Booth, and Stallrich, 2025, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2511.18111>). Designed specifically for small datasets.

Density, distribution function, quantile function, and random generation for the generalized Beta and Beta prime distributions. The family of generalized Beta distributions is conjugate for the Bayesian binomial model, and the generalized Beta prime distribution is the posterior distribution of the relative risk in the Bayesian two Poisson samples model when a Gamma prior is assigned to the Poisson rate of the reference group and a Beta prime prior is assigned to the relative risk.

The git2rdata package is an R package for writing and reading dataframes as plain text files. A metadata file stores important information. 1) Storing metadata allows to maintain the classes of variables. By default, git2rdata optimizes the data for file storage. The optimization is most effective on data containing factors. The optimization makes the data less human readable. The user can turn this off when they prefer a human readable format over smaller files. Details on the implementation are available in vignette("plain_text", package = "git2rdata"). 2) Storing metadata also allows smaller row based diffs between two consecutive commits. This is a useful feature when storing data as plain text files under version control. Details on this part of the implementation are available in vignette("version_control", package = "git2rdata"). Although we envisioned git2rdata with a git workflow in mind, you can use it in combination with other version control systems like subversion or mercurial. 3) git2rdata is a useful tool in a reproducible and traceable workflow. vignette("workflow", package = "git2rdata") gives a toy example. 4) vignette("efficiency", package = "git2rdata") provides some insight into the efficiency of file storage, git repository size and speed for writing and reading.

Fits a geographically weighted regression model using zero inflated probability distributions. Has the zero inflated negative binomial distribution (zinb) as default, but also accepts the zero inflated Poisson (zip), negative binomial (negbin) and Poisson distributions. Can also fit the global versions of each regression model. Da Silva, A. R. & De Sousa, M. D. R. (2023).
