This package implements the five-parameter Generalized Kumaraswamy ('gkw') distribution proposed by Carrasco, Ferrari and Cordeiro (2010) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1004.0911> and its seven nested sub-families for modeling bounded continuous data on the unit interval (0,1). The gkw distribution extends the Kumaraswamy distribution described by Jones (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.stamet.2008.04.001>. Provides density, distribution, quantile, and random generation functions, along with analytical log-likelihood, gradient, and Hessian functions implemented in C++ via RcppArmadillo for maximum computational efficiency. Suitable for modeling proportions, rates, percentages, and indices exhibiting complex features such as asymmetry, or heavy tails and other shapes not adequately captured by standard distributions like simple Beta or Kumaraswamy.

Create correlation heatmaps with ggplot2 and customise them with flexible annotation and clustering. Symmetric heatmaps can use triangular or mixed layouts, removing redundant information or displaying complementary information in the two halves. There is also support for general heatmaps not displaying correlations.

Approximates the likelihood of a generalized linear mixed model using Monte Carlo likelihood approximation. Then maximizes the likelihood approximation to return maximum likelihood estimates, observed Fisher information, and other model information.

The groupr package provides a more powerful version of grouped tibbles from dplyr'. It allows groups to be marked inapplicable, which is a simple but widely useful way to express structure in a dataset. It also provides powerful pivoting and other group manipulation functions.

This package provides automated downloading, parsing, cleaning, unit conversion and formatting of Global Surface Summary of the Day ('GSOD') weather data from the from the USA National Centers for Environmental Information ('NCEI'). The data were retired on 2025-08-29 and are no longer updated. Units are converted from from United States Customary System ('USCS') units to International System of Units ('SI'). Stations may be individually checked for number of missing days defined by the user, where stations with too many missing observations are omitted. Only stations with valid reported latitude and longitude values are permitted in the final data. Additional useful elements, saturation vapour pressure ('es'), actual vapour pressure ('ea') and relative humidity ('RH') are calculated from the original data using the improved August-Roche-Magnus approximation (Alduchov & Eskridge 1996) and included in the final data set. The resulting metadata include station identification information, country, state, latitude, longitude, elevation, weather observations and associated flags. For information on the GSOD data from NCEI', please see the GSOD readme.txt file available from, <https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/pub/data/gsod/readme.txt>.

R function gawdis() produces multi-trait dissimilarity with more uniform contributions of different traits. de Bello et al. (2021) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13537> presented the approach based on minimizing the differences in the correlation between the dissimilarity of each trait, or groups of traits, and the multi-trait dissimilarity. This is done using either an analytic or a numerical solution, both available in the function.

Geographically Dependent Individual Level Models (GDILMs) within the Susceptible-Exposed-Infectious-Recovered-Susceptible (SEIRS) framework are applied to model infectious disease transmission, incorporating reinfection dynamics. This package employs a likelihood based Monte Carlo Expectation Conditional Maximization (MCECM) algorithm for estimating model parameters. It also provides tools for GDILM fitting, parameter estimation, AIC calculation on real pandemic data, and simulation studies customized to user-defined model settings.

The Darwin Core data standard is widely used to share biodiversity information, most notably by the Global Biodiversity Information Facility and its partner nodes; but converting data to this standard can be tricky. galaxias is functionally similar to devtools', but with a focus on building Darwin Core Archives rather than R packages, enabling data to be shared and re-used with relative ease. For details see Wieczorek and colleagues (2012) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0029715>.

Group SLOPE (Group Sorted L1 Penalized Estimation) is a penalized linear regression method that is used for adaptive selection of groups of significant predictors in a high-dimensional linear model. The Group SLOPE method can control the (group) false discovery rate at a user-specified level (i.e., control the expected proportion of irrelevant among all selected groups of predictors). For additional information about the implemented methods please see Brzyski, Gossmann, Su, Bogdan (2018) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2017.1411269>.
