Meyer and Held (2017) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxw051> present an age-structured spatio-temporal model for infectious disease counts. The approach is illustrated in a case study on norovirus gastroenteritis in Berlin, 2011-2015, by age group, city district and week, using additional contact data from the POLYMOD survey. This package contains the data and code to reproduce the results from the paper, see demo("hhh4contacts")'.

This package provides methods for correcting heaping (digit preference) in survey data at the individual record level. Age heaping, where respondents disproportionately report ages ending in 0 or 5, is a common phenomenon that can distort demographic analyses. Unlike traditional smoothing methods that only correct aggregated statistics, this package corrects individual values by replacing a calculated proportion of heaped observations with draws from fitted truncated distributions (log-normal, normal, or uniform). Supports 5-year and 10-year heaping patterns, single heap correction, and optional model-based adjustment to preserve covariate relationships.

Most common exact, asymptotic and resample based tests are provided for testing the homogeneity of variances of k normal distributions under normality.

This package provides flexible maximum likelihood estimation and inference for Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and Hidden Semi-Markov Models (HSMMs), as well as the underlying systems in which they operate. The package supports a wide range of observation and dwell-time distributions, offering a flexible modelling framework suitable for diverse practical data. Efficient implementations of the forward-backward and Viterbi algorithms are provided via Rcpp for enhanced computational performance. Additional functionality includes model simulation, residual analysis, non-initialised estimation, local and global decoding, calculation of diverse information criteria, computation of confidence intervals using parametric bootstrap methods, numerical covariance matrix estimation, and comprehensive visualisation functions for interpreting the data-generating processes inferred from the models. Methods follow standard approaches described by Guédon (2003) <doi:10.1198/1061860032030>, Zucchini and MacDonald (2009, ISBN:9781584885733), and O'Connell and Højsgaard (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v039.i04>.

Additionally, it covers data exploration, quality control and generation of publication-quality figures. All functionalities are also available in the in-built Shiny app.

For supersonic aircraft, flying subsonic over land, find the best route between airports. Allow for coastal buffer and potentially closed regions. Use a minimal model of aircraft performance: the focus is on time saved versus subsonic flight, rather than on vertical flight profile. For modelling and forecasting, not for planning your flight!

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.

There are growing concerns on flow data in diverse fields including trade, migration, knowledge diffusion, disease spread, and transportation. The package is an effective visual support to learn the pattern of flow which is called halfcircle diagram. The flow between two nodes placed on the center line of a circle is represented using a half circle drawn from the origin to the destination in a clockwise direction. Through changing the order of nodes, the halfcircle diagram enables users to examine the complex relationship between bidirectional flow and each potential determinants. Furthermore, the halfmeancenter function, which calculates (un) weighted mean center of half circles, makes the comparison easier.

Display hexagonally binned scatterplots for multi-class data, using coloured triangles to show class proportions.

Can be used for paternity and maternity assignment and outperforms conventional methods where closely related individuals occur in the pool of possible parents. The method compares the genotypes of offspring with any combination of potentials parents and scores the number of mismatches of these individuals at bi-allelic genetic markers (e.g. Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms). It elaborates on a prior exclusion method based on the Homozygous Opposite Test (HOT; Huisman 2017 <doi:10.1111/1755-0998.12665>) by introducing the additional exclusion criterion HIPHOP (Homozygous Identical Parents, Heterozygous Offspring are Precluded; Cockburn et al., in revision). Potential parents are excluded if they have more mismatches than can be expected due to genotyping error and mutation, and thereby one can identify the true genetic parents and detect situations where one (or both) of the true parents is not sampled. Package hiphop can deal with (a) the case where there is contextual information about parentage of the mother (i.e. a female has been seen to be involved in reproductive tasks such as nest building), but paternity is unknown (e.g. due to promiscuity), (b) where both parents need to be assigned, because there is no contextual information on which female laid eggs and which male fertilized them (e.g. polygynandrous mating system where multiple females and males deposit young in a common nest, or organisms with external fertilisation that breed in aggregations).
