Estimates parameters in Mixture Transition Distribution (MTD) models, a class of high-order Markov chains. The set of relevant pasts (lags) is selected using either the Bayesian Information Criterion or the Forward Stepwise and Cut algorithms. Other model parameters (e.g. transition probabilities and oscillations) can be estimated via maximum likelihood estimation or the Expectation-Maximization algorithm. Additionally, hdMTD includes a perfect sampling algorithm that generates samples of an MTD model from its invariant distribution. For theory, see Ost & Takahashi (2023) <http://jmlr.org/papers/v24/22-0266.html>.

Holistic Multimodel Domain Analysis (HMDA) is a robust and transparent framework designed for exploratory machine learning research, aiming to enhance the process of feature assessment and selection. HMDA addresses key limitations of traditional machine learning methods by evaluating the consistency across multiple high-performing models within a fine-tuned modeling grid, thereby improving the interpretability and reliability of feature importance assessments. Specifically, it computes Weighted Mean SHapley Additive exPlanations (WMSHAP), which aggregate feature contributions from multiple models based on weighted performance metrics. HMDA also provides confidence intervals to demonstrate the stability of these feature importance estimates. This framework is particularly beneficial for analyzing complex, multidimensional datasets common in health research, supporting reliable exploration of mental health outcomes such as suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and other psychological conditions. Additionally, HMDA includes automated procedures for feature selection based on WMSHAP ratios and performs dimension reduction analyses to identify underlying structures among features. For more details see Haghish (2025) <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.32473.63846>.

H(x) is the h-index for the past x years. Here, the h(x) of a scientist/department/etc. can be calculated using the exported excel file from a Web of Science citation report of a search. Also calculated is the year of first publication, total number of publications, and sum of times cited for the specified period. Therefore, for h-10: the date of first publication, total number of publications, and sum of times cited in the past 10 years are calculated. Note: the excel file has to first be saved in a .csv format.

This package performs Gaussian process regression with heteroskedastic noise following the model by Binois, M., Gramacy, R., Ludkovski, M. (2016) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1611.05902>, with implementation details in Binois, M. & Gramacy, R. B. (2021) <doi:10.18637/jss.v098.i13>. The input dependent noise is modeled as another Gaussian process. Replicated observations are encouraged as they yield computational savings. Sequential design procedures based on the integrated mean square prediction error and lookahead heuristics are provided, and notably fast update functions when adding new observations.

Published meta-analyses routinely present one of the measures of heterogeneity introduced in Higgins and Thompson (2002) <doi:10.1002/sim.1186>. For critiquing articles it is often better to convert to another of those measures. Some conversions are provided here and confidence intervals are also available.

Self-reported health, happiness, attitudes, and other statuses or perceptions are often the subject of biases that may come from different sources. For example, the evaluation of an individualâ s own health may depend on previous medical diagnoses, functional status, and symptoms and signs of illness; as on well as life-style behaviors, including contextual social, gender, age-specific, linguistic and other cultural factors (Jylha 2009 <doi:10.1016/j.socscimed.2009.05.013>; Oksuzyan et al. 2019 <doi:10.1016/j.socscimed.2019.03.002>). The hopit package offers versatile functions for analyzing different self-reported ordinal variables, and for helping to estimate their biases. Specifically, the package provides the function to fit a generalized ordered probit model that regresses original self-reported status measures on two sets of independent variables (King et al. 2004 <doi:10.1017/S0003055403000881>; Jurges 2007 <doi:10.1002/hec.1134>; Oksuzyan et al. 2019 <doi:10.1016/j.socscimed.2019.03.002>). The first set of variables (e.g., health variables) included in the regression are individual statuses and characteristics that are directly related to the self-reported variable. In the case of self-reported health, these could be chronic conditions, mobility level, difficulties with daily activities, performance on grip strength tests, anthropometric measures, and lifestyle behaviors. The second set of independent variables (threshold variables) is used to model cut-points between adjacent self-reported response categories as functions of individual characteristics, such as gender, age group, education, and country (Oksuzyan et al. 2019 <doi:10.1016/j.socscimed.2019.03.002>). The model helps to adjust for specific socio-demographic and cultural differences in how the continuous latent health is projected onto the ordinal self-rated measure. The fitted model can be used to calculate an individual predicted latent status variable, a latent index, and standardized latent coefficients; and makes it possible to reclassify a categorical status measure that has been adjusted for inter-individual differences in reporting behavior.

This package provides a procedure that fits derivative curves based on a sequence of quotient differences. In a hierarchical setting the package produces estimates of subject-specific and group-specific derivative curves. In a non-hierarchical setting the package produces a single derivative curve.

Pure set data visualization approaches are often limited in scalability due to the combinatorial explosion of distinct set families as the number of sets under investigation increases. hierarchicalSets applies a set centric hierarchical clustering of the sets under investigation and uses this hierarchy as a basis for a range of scalable visual representations. hierarchicalSets is especially well suited for collections of sets that describe comparable comparable entities as it relies on the sets to have a meaningful relational structure.

This package implements various heuristics like Take The Best and unit-weight linear, which do two-alternative choice: which of two objects will have a higher criterion? Also offers functions to assess performance, e.g. percent correct across all row pairs in a data set and finding row pairs where models disagree. New models can be added by implementing a fit and predict function-- see vignette. Take The Best was first described in: Gigerenzer, G. & Goldstein, D. G. (1996) <doi:10.1037/0033-295X.103.4.650>. All of these heuristics were run on many data sets and analyzed in: Gigerenzer, G., Todd, P. M., & the ABC Group (1999). <ISBN:978-0195143812>.
