Genealogical data analysis including descriptive statistics (e.g., kinship and inbreeding coefficients) and gene-dropping simulations. See: "GENLIB: an R package for the analysis of genealogical data" Gauvin et al. (2015) <doi:10.1186/s12859-015-0581-5>.

This package provides tools for sparse regression modelling with grouped predictors using the group subset selection penalty. Uses coordinate descent and local search algorithms to rapidly deliver near optimal estimates. The group subset penalty can be combined with a group lasso or ridge penalty for added shrinkage. Linear and logistic regression are supported, as are overlapping groups.

This package provides classes and methods for handling networks or graphs whose nodes are geographical (i.e. locations in the globe). The functionality includes the creation of objects of class geonetwork as a graph with node coordinates, the computation of network measures, the support of spatial operations (projection to different Coordinate Reference Systems, handling of bounding boxes, etc.) and the plotting of the geonetwork object combined with supplementary cartography for spatial representation.

This package provides a statistical disclosure control tool to protect tables by suppression using the Gaussian elimination secondary suppression algorithm (Langsrud, 2024) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-69651-0_6>. A suggestion is to start by working with functions SuppressSmallCounts() and SuppressDominantCells(). These functions use primary suppression functions for the minimum frequency rule and the dominance rule, respectively. Novel functionality for suppression of disclosive cells is also included. General primary suppression functions can be supplied as input to the general working horse function, GaussSuppressionFromData(). Suppressed frequencies can be replaced by synthetic decimal numbers as described in Langsrud (2019) <doi:10.1007/s11222-018-9848-9>.

The standard linear regression theory whether frequentist or Bayesian is based on an assumed (revealed?) truth (John Tukey) attitude to models. This is reflected in the language of statistical inference which involves a concept of truth, for example confidence intervals, hypothesis testing and consistency. The motivation behind this package was to remove the word true from the theory and practice of linear regression and to replace it by approximation. The approximations considered are the least squares approximations. An approximation is called valid if it contains no irrelevant covariates. This is operationalized using the concept of a Gaussian P-value which is the probability that pure Gaussian noise is better in term of least squares than the covariate. The precise definition given in the paper "An Approximation Based Theory of Linear Regression". Only four simple equations are required. Moreover the Gaussian P-values can be simply derived from standard F P-values. Furthermore they are exact and valid whatever the data in contrast F P-values are only valid for specially designed simulations. A valid approximation is one where all the Gaussian P-values are less than a threshold p0 specified by the statistician, in this package with the default value 0.01. This approximations approach is not only much simpler it is overwhelmingly better than the standard model based approach. The will be demonstrated using high dimensional regression and vector autoregression real data sets. The goal is to find valid approximations. The search function is f1st which is a greedy forward selection procedure which results in either just one or no approximations which may however not be valid. If the size is less than than a threshold with default value 21 then an all subset procedure is called which returns the best valid subset. A good default start is f1st(y,x,kmn=15) The best function for returning multiple approximations is f3st which repeatedly calls f1st. For more information see the papers: L. Davies and L. Duembgen, "Covariate Selection Based on a Model-free Approach to Linear Regression with Exact Probabilities", <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2202.01553>, L. Davies, "An Approximation Based Theory of Linear Regression", 2024, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2402.09858>.

Causal mediation analysis for a single exposure/treatment and a single mediator, both allowed to be either continuous or binary. The package implements the difference method and provides point and interval estimates as well as testing for the natural direct and indirect effects and the mediation proportion. Nevo, Xiao and Spiegelman (2017) <doi:10.1515/ijb-2017-0006>.

Builds a LASSO, Ridge, or Elastic Net model with glmnet or cv.glmnet with bootstrap inference statistics (SE, CI, and p-value) for selected coefficients with no shrinkage applied for them. Model performance can be evaluated on test data and an automated alpha selection is implemented for Elastic Net. Parallelized computation is used to speed up the process. The methods are described in Friedman et al. (2010) <doi:10.18637/jss.v033.i01> and Simon et al. (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v039.i05>.

The geom_rain() function adds different geoms together using ggplot2 to create raincloud plots.

Can be used for optimal transport between two-dimensional grids with respect to separable cost functions of l^p form. It utilizes the Frank-Wolfe algorithm to approximate so-called pivot measures: One-dimensional transport plans that fully describe the full transport, see G. Auricchio (2023) <doi:10.4171/RLM/1026>. For these, it offers methods for visualization and to extract the corresponding transport plans and costs. Additionally, related functions for one-dimensional optimal transport are available.

This package provides methods for recursive partitioning based on the Graded Response Model ('GRM'), extending the MOB algorithm from the partykit package. The package allows for fitting GRM trees that partition the population into homogeneous subgroups based on item response patterns and covariates. Includes specialized plotting functions for visualizing GRM trees with different terminal node displays (threshold regions, parameter profiles, and factor score distributions). For more details on the methods, see Samejima (1969) <doi:10.1002/J.2333-8504.1968.TB00153.X>, Komboz et al. (2018) <doi:10.1177/0013164416664394> and Arimoro et al.

This package provides a compilation of tools to complete common tasks for studying gerrymandering. This focuses on the geographic tool side of common problems, such as linking different levels of spatial units or estimating how to break up units. Functions exist for creating redistricting-focused data for the US.

Turn irregular polygons (such as geographical regions) into regular or hexagonal grids. This package enables the generation of regular (square) and hexagonal grids through the package sp and then assigns the content of the existing polygons to the new grid using the Hungarian algorithm, Kuhn (1955) (<doi:10.1007/978-3-540-68279-0_2>). This prevents the need for manual generation of hexagonal grids or regular grids that are supposed to reflect existing geography.

The correlations and linkage disequilibrium between tests can vary as a function of minor allele frequency thresholds used to filter variants, and also varies with different choices of test statistic for region-based tests. Appropriate genome-wide significance thresholds can be estimated empirically through permutation on only a small proportion of the whole genome.
