The aim of the package is to create data objects which allow for accesses like x["test"] and x["test","test"].

This package provides functions for the longitudinal genetic random field method (He et al., 2015, <doi:10.1111/biom.12310>) to test the association between a longitudinally measured quantitative outcome and a set of genetic variants in a gene/region.

Create and use data frame labels for data frame objects (frame labels), their columns (name labels), and individual values of a column (value labels). Value labels include one-to-one and many-to-one labels for nominal and ordinal variables, as well as numerical range-based value labels for continuous variables. Convert value-labeled variables so each value is replaced by its corresponding value label. Add values-converted-to-labels columns to a value-labeled data frame while preserving parent columns. Filter and subset a value-labeled data frame using labels, while returning results in terms of values. Overlay labels in place of values in common R commands to increase interpretability. Generate tables of value frequencies, with categories expressed as raw values or as labels. Access data frames that show value-to-label mappings for easy reference.

Prototypes for construction of a Gaussian Stochastic Process emulator (GASP) of a computer model. This is done within the objective Bayesian implementation of the GASP. The package allows for construction of a linked GASP of the composite computer model. Computational implementation follows the mathematical exposition given in publication: Ksenia N. Kyzyurova, James O. Berger, Robert L. Wolpert. Coupling computer models through linking their statistical emulators. SIAM/ASA Journal on Uncertainty Quantification, 6(3): 1151-1171, (2018).<DOI:10.1137/17M1157702>.

Estimates two-dimensional local wavelet spectra.

This package provides tools for sensitivity analysis of LSD simulation models. Reads object-oriented data produced by LSD simulation models and performs screening and global sensitivity analysis (Sobol decomposition method, Saltelli et al. (2008) ISBN:9780470725177). A Kriging or polynomial meta-model (Kleijnen (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.ejor.2007.10.013>) is estimated using the simulation data to provide the data required by the Sobol decomposition. LSD (Laboratory for Simulation Development) is free software developed by Marco Valente and Marcelo C. Pereira (documentation and downloads available at <https://www.labsimdev.org/>).

This package provides functions for computing the r and r* statistics for inference on an arbitrary scalar function of model parameters, plus some code for the (modified) profile likelihood.

Companion toolbox for structural equation models fitted with lavaan'. Provides post-estimation diagnostics and graphics that operate directly on a fitted object using its estimates and covariance, and refits auxiliary models when needed. The package relies on lavaan (Rosseel, 2012) <doi:10.18637/jss.v048.i02>.

This package provides two methods of estimating income inequality statistics from binned income data, such as the income data provided in the Census. These methods use different interpolation techniques to infer the distribution of incomes within income bins. One method is an implementation of Jargowsky and Wheeler's mean-constrained integration over brackets (MCIB). The other method is based on a new technique, Lorenz interpolation, which estimates income inequality by constructing an interpolated Lorenz curve based on the binned income data. These methods can be used to estimate three income inequality measures: the Gini (the default measure returned), the Theil, and the Atkinson's index. Jargowsky and Wheeler (2018) <doi:10.1177/0081175018782579>.

An updated implementation of R package ranger by Wright et al, (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v077.i01> for training and predicting from random forests, particularly suited to high-dimensional data, and for embedding in Multiple Imputation by Chained Equations (MICE) by van Buuren (2007) <doi:10.1177/0962280206074463>. Ensembles of classification and regression trees are currently supported. Sparse data of class dgCMatrix (R package Matrix') can be directly analyzed. Conventional bagged predictions are available alongside an efficient prediction for MICE via the algorithm proposed by Doove et al (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2013.10.025>. Trained forests can be written to and read from storage. Survival and probability forests are not supported in the update, nor is data of class gwaa.data (R package GenABEL'); use the original ranger package for these analyses.

Sparklines are small plots (about one line of text high), made popular by Edward Tufte. This package is the interface from R to the LaTeX package sparklines by Andreas Loeffer and Dan Luecking (<http://www.ctan.org/pkg/sparklines>). It can work with Sweave or knitr or other engines that produce TeX. The package can be used to plot vectors, matrices, data frames, time series (in ts or zoo format).

LimeSurvey is Free/Libre Open Source Software for the development and administrations of online studies, using sophisticated tailoring capabilities to support multiple study designs (see <https://www.limesurvey.org>). This package supports programmatic creation of surveys that can then be imported into LimeSurvey', as well as user friendly import of responses from LimeSurvey studies.

Conveniently generate CSS using R code.

This package provides R with the Glottolog database <https://glottolog.org/> and some more abilities for purposes of linguistic mapping. The Glottolog database contains the catalogue of languages of the world. This package helps researchers to make a linguistic maps, using philosophy of the Cross-Linguistic Linked Data project <https://clld.org/>, which allows for while at the same time facilitating uniform access to the data across publications. A tutorial for this package is available on GitHub pages <https://docs.ropensci.org/lingtypology/> and package vignette. Maps created by this package can be used both for the investigation and linguistic teaching. In addition, package provides an ability to download data from typological databases such as WALS, AUTOTYP and some others and to create your own database website.

This package provides tools for estimation and inference of conditional densities, derivatives and functions. This is the companion software for Cattaneo, Chandak, Jansson and Ma (2024) <doi:10.3150/23-BEJ1711>.

Linear dimension reduction subspaces can be uniquely defined using orthogonal projection matrices. This package provides tools to compute distances between such subspaces and to compute the average subspace. For details see Liski, E.Nordhausen K., Oja H., Ruiz-Gazen A. (2016) Combining Linear Dimension Reduction Subspaces <doi:10.1007/978-81-322-3643-6_7>.

This package provides methods and tools for model selection and multi-model inference (Burnham and Anderson (2002) <doi:10.1007/b97636>, among others). SUR (for parameter estimation), logit'/'probit (for binary classification), and VARMA (for time-series forecasting) are implemented. Evaluations are both in-sample and out-of-sample. It is designed to be efficient in terms of CPU usage and memory consumption.

Efficient procedures for fitting the regularization path for linear, binomial, multinomial, Ising and Potts models with lasso, group lasso or column lasso(only for multinomial) penalty. The package uses Linearized Bregman Algorithm to solve the regularization path through iterations. Bregman Inverse Scale Space Differential Inclusion solver is also provided for linear model with lasso penalty.

Supervised classification methods, which (if asked) can provide step-by-step explanations of the algorithms used, as described in PK Josephine et. al., (2021) <doi:10.59176/kjcs.v1i1.1259>; and datasets to test them on, which highlight the strengths and weaknesses of each technique.

Some simple objects and functions to do statistics using linear models and a Bayesian framework.

Allows the simultaneous analysis of responses and response times in an Item Response Theory (IRT) modelling framework. Supports variable person speed functions (intercept, trend, quadratic), and covariates for item and person (random) parameters. Data missing-by-design can be specified. Parameter estimation is done with a MCMC algorithm. LNIRT replaces the package CIRT, which was written by Rinke Klein Entink. For reference, see the paper by Fox, Klein Entink and Van der Linden (2007), "Modeling of Responses and Response Times with the Package cirt", Journal of Statistical Software, <doi:10.18637/jss.v020.i07>.

Detect feedback loops (cycles, circuits) between species (nodes) in ordinary differential equation (ODE) models. Feedback loops are paths from a node to itself without visiting any other node twice, and they have important regulatory functions. Loops are reported with their order of participating nodes and their length, and whether the loop is a positive or a negative feedback loop. An upper limit of the number of feedback loops limits runtime (which scales with feedback loop count). Model parametrizations and values of the modelled variables are accounted for. Computation uses the characteristics of the Jacobian matrix as described e.g. in Thomas and Kaufman (2002) <doi:10.1016/s1631-0691(02)01452-x>. Input can be the Jacobian matrix of the ODE model or the ODE function definition; in the latter case, the Jacobian matrix is determined using numDeriv'. Graph-based algorithms from igraph are employed for path detection.

Processing of Landsat or other multispectral satellite imagery. Includes relative normalization, image-based radiometric correction, and topographic correction options.
