The function plotLRT() draws pairwise graphical model checks for the Rasch Model (RM; Rasch, 1960), the Partial Credit Model(PCM; Masters, 1982), and the Rating Scale Model (RSM; Andrich, 1978) using the output object of eRm::LRtest(). The function cLRT() provides a conditional Likelihood Ratio Test (Andersen, 1973), using the routines of psychotools'. Users may choose to plot the threshold parameters, the cumulative thresholds, the average thresholds per item, or the person parameters. Extended coloring options allow for automated item-wise or threshold-wise coloring. For multi-group splits, all pairwise group comparisons are drawn automatically. For more details see Andersen (1973) <doi:10.1007/BF02291180>, Andrich (1978) <doi:10.1007/BF02293814>, Masters (1982) <doi:10.1007/BF02296272> and Rasch (1960, ISBN:9780598554512).

An implementation of ggplot2'-methods to present the composition of Solvency II Solvency Capital Requirement (SCR) as a series of concentric circle-parts. Solvency II (Solvency 2) is European insurance legislation, coming in force by the delegated acts of October 10, 2014. <https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=OJ%3AL%3A2015%3A012%3ATOC>. Additional files, defining the structure of the Standard Formula (SF) method of the SCR-calculation are provided. The structure files can be adopted for localization or for insurance companies who use Internal Models (IM). Options are available for combining smaller components, horizontal and vertical scaling, rotation, and plotting only some circle-parts. With outlines and connectors several SCR-compositions can be compared, for example in ORSA-scenarios (Own Risk and Solvency Assessment).

This package provides a novel statistical model to detect the joint genetic and dynamic gene-environment (GxE) interaction with continuous traits in genetic association studies. It uses varying-coefficient models to account for different GxE trajectories, regardless whether the relationship is linear or not. The package includes one function, GxEtest(), to test a single genetic variant (e.g., a single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP), and another function, GxEscreen(), to test for a set of genetic variants. The method involves a likelihood ratio test described in Crainiceanu, C. M., and Ruppert, D. (2004) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2004.00438.x>.

Assists in the plotting and functional smoothing of traits measured over time and the extraction of features from these traits, implementing the SET (Smoothing and Extraction of Traits) method described in Brien et al. (2020) Plant Methods, 16. Smoothing of growth trends for individual plants using natural cubic smoothing splines or P-splines is available for removing transient effects and segmented smoothing is available to deal with discontinuities in growth trends. There are graphical tools for assessing the adequacy of trait smoothing, both when using this and other packages, such as those that fit nonlinear growth models. A range of per-unit (plant, pot, plot) growth traits or features can be extracted from the data, including single time points, interval growth rates and other growth statistics, such as maximum growth or days to maximum growth. The package also has tools adapted to inputting data from high-throughput phenotyping facilities, such from a Lemna-Tec Scananalyzer 3D (see <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRAF_mAEa7E/> for more information). The package growthPheno can also be installed from <http://chris.brien.name/rpackages/>.

This package provides a bottom up model to estimate the emission levels of public transport systems based on General Transit Feed Specification (GTFS) data. The package requires two main inputs: i) Public transport data in the GTFS standard format; and ii) Some basic information on fleet characteristics such as fleet age, technology, fuel and Euro stage. As it stands, the package estimates several pollutants at high spatial and temporal resolutions. Pollution levels can be calculated for specific transport routes, trips, time of the day or for the transport system as a whole. The output with emission estimates can be extracted in different formats, supporting analysis on how emission levels vary across space, time and by fleet characteristics. A full description of the methods used in the gtfs2emis model is presented in Vieira, J. P. B.; Pereira, R. H. M.; Andrade, P. R. (2022) <doi:10.31219/osf.io/8m2cy>.

Estimation of the cutpoint defined by the Generalized Symmetry point in a binary classification setting based on a continuous diagnostic test or marker. Two methods have been implemented to construct confidence intervals for this optimal cutpoint, one based on the Generalized Pivotal Quantity and the other based on Empirical Likelihood. Numerical and graphical outputs for these two methods are easily obtained.

Methodology that combines feature selection, model tuning, and parsimonious model selection with Genetic Algorithms (GA) proposed in Martinez-de-Pison (2015) <DOI:10.1016/j.asoc.2015.06.012>. To this objective, a novel GA selection procedure is introduced based on separate cost and complexity evaluations.

Comparing two independent or paired groups across a range of descriptive statistics, enabling the evaluation of potential differences in central tendency (mean, median), dispersion (variance, interquartile range), shape (skewness, kurtosis), and distributional characteristics (various quantiles). The analytical framework incorporates parametric t-tests, non-parametric Wilcoxon tests, permutation tests, and bootstrap resampling techniques to assess the statistical significance of observed differences.
