Gaussian processes are flexible distributions to model functional data. Whilst theoretically appealing, they are computationally cumbersome except for small datasets. This package implements two methods for scaling Gaussian process inference in Stan'. First, a sparse approximation of the likelihood that is generally applicable and, second, an exact method for regularly spaced data modeled by stationary kernels using fast Fourier methods. Utility functions are provided to compile and fit Stan models using the cmdstanr interface. References: Hoffmann and Onnela (2025) <doi:10.18637/jss.v112.i02>.

Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is a stratified sampling method known for its efficiency compared to Simple Random Sampling (SRS). When sample allocation is equal across strata, it is referred to as balanced RSS (BRSS) whereas unequal allocation is called unbalanced RSS (URSS), which is particularly effective for asymmetric or skewed distributions. This package offers practical statistical tools and sampling methods for both BRSS and URSS, emphasizing flexible sampling designs and inference for population means, medians, proportions, and Area Under the Curve (AUC). It incorporates parametric and nonparametric tests, including empirical likelihood ratio (LR) methods. The package provides ranked set sampling methods from a given population, including sampling with imperfect ranking using auxiliary variables. Furthermore, it provides tools for efficient sample allocation in URSS, ensuring greater efficiency than SRS and BRSS. For more details, refer e.g. to Chen et al. (2003) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-21664-5>, Ahn et al. (2022) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-14525-4_3>, and Ahn et al. (2024) <doi:10.1111/insr.12589>.

Unsupervised Clustering and Meta-analysis using Gaussian Mixture Copula Models.

Set of functions for step-wise generation of (weighted) graphs. Aimed for research in the field of single- and multi-objective combinatorial optimization. Graphs are generated adding nodes, edges and weights. Each step may be repeated multiple times with different predefined and custom generators resulting in high flexibility regarding the graph topology and structure of edge weights.

Integrating applied psychological and psychometric methods into geographical analysis. With the emergence of geo-referenced questionnaires, spatially explicit psychological and psychometric methods can offer a geographically contextualised approach that reflects latent traits and processes at a more local scale, leading to more tailored research and decision-making processes. The implemented methods include Geographically Weighted Cronbach's alpha and its bandwidth selection. See Zhang & Li (2025) <doi:10.1111/gean.70021>.

This package provides a framework to detect Differential Item Functioning (DIF) in Generalized Partial Credit Models (GPCM) and special cases of the GPCM as proposed by Schauberger and Mair (2019) <doi:10.3758/s13428-019-01224-2>. A joint model is set up where DIF is explicitly parametrized and penalized likelihood estimation is used for parameter selection. The big advantage of the method called GPCMlasso is that several variables can be treated simultaneously and that both continuous and categorical variables can be used to detect DIF.

An R interface to weighted nonlinear least-squares optimization with the GNU Scientific Library (GSL), see M. Galassi et al. (2009, ISBN:0954612078). The available trust region methods include the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm with and without geodesic acceleration, the Steihaug-Toint conjugate gradient algorithm for large systems and several variants of Powell's dogleg algorithm. Multi-start optimization based on quasi-random samples is implemented using a modified version of the algorithm in Hickernell and Yuan (1997, OR Transactions). Robust nonlinear regression can be performed using various robust loss functions, in which case the optimization problem is solved by iterative reweighted least squares (IRLS). Bindings are provided to tune a number of parameters affecting the low-level aspects of the trust region algorithms. The interface mimics R's nls() function and returns model objects inheriting from the same class.
