Latent Markov models for longitudinal continuous and categorical data. See Bartolucci, Pandolfi, Pennoni (2017)<doi:10.18637/jss.v081.i04>.

Combines Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and Bayesian multinomial time series methods in a two-stage analysis to quantify dynamics in high-dimensional temporal data. LDA decomposes multivariate data into lower-dimension latent groupings, whose relative proportions are modeled using generalized Bayesian time series models that include abrupt changepoints and smooth dynamics. The methods are described in Blei et al. (2003) <doi:10.1162/jmlr.2003.3.4-5.993>, Western and Kleykamp (2004) <doi:10.1093/pan/mph023>, Venables and Ripley (2002, ISBN-13:978-0387954578), and Christensen et al. (2018) <doi:10.1002/ecy.2373>.

Estimate, fit and compare Structural Equation Models (SEM) and network models (Gaussian Graphical Models; GGM) using OpenMx. Allows for two possible generalizations to include GGMs in SEM: GGMs can be used between latent variables (latent network modeling; LNM) or between residuals (residual network modeling; RNM). For details, see Epskamp, Rhemtulla and Borsboom (2017) <doi:10.1007/s11336-017-9557-x>.

Suite of R functions for the estimation of the local false discovery rate (LFDR) using Type II maximum likelihood estimation (MLE).

This package implements methods for analyzing latent variable models with measurement error correction, including Item Response Theory (IRT) models. Provides tools for various correction methods such as Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), over-imputation, bootstrapping for robust standard errors, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), and Instrumental Variables (IV) based approaches. Supports flexible specification of observable indicators and groupings for latent variable analyses in social sciences and other fields.

Estimation of a multi-group count regression models (i.e., Poisson, negative binomial) with latent covariates. This packages provides two extensions compared to ordinary count regression models based on a generalized linear model: First, measurement models for the predictors can be specified allowing to account for measurement error. Second, the count regression can be simultaneously estimated in multiple groups with stochastic group weights. The marginal maximum likelihood estimation is described in Kiefer & Mayer (2020) <doi:10.1080/00273171.2020.1751027>.

This package implements the LS-PLS (least squares - partial least squares) method described in for instance Jørgensen, K., Segtnan, V. H., Thyholt, K., Næs, T. (2004) "A Comparison of Methods for Analysing Regression Models with Both Spectral and Designed Variables" Journal of Chemometrics, 18(10), 451--464, <doi:10.1002/cem.890>.

We present a method based on filtering algorithms to estimate the parameters of linear, i.e. the coefficients and the variance of the error term. The proposed algorithms make use of Particle Filters following Ristic, B., Arulampalam, S., Gordon, N. (2004, ISBN: 158053631X) resampling methods. Parameters of logistic regression models are also estimated using an evolutionary particle filter method.

Local Mean Decomposition is an iterative and self-adaptive approach for demodulating, processing, and analyzing multi-component amplitude modulated and frequency modulated signals. This R package is based on the approach suggested by Smith (2005) <doi:10.1098/rsif.2005.0058> and the Python library PyLMD'.

This package provides functions that allow for convenient working with vector space models of semantics/distributional semantic models/word embeddings. Originally built for LSA models (hence the name), but can be used for all such vector-based models. For actually building a vector semantic space, use the package lsa or other specialized software. Downloadable semantic spaces can be found at <https://sites.google.com/site/fritzgntr/software-resources>.

Software for computing a log-concave (maximum likelihood) estimator for independent and identically distributed data in any number of dimensions. For a detailed description of the method see Cule, Samworth and Stewart (2010, Journal of Royal Statistical Society Series B, <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2010.00753.x>).

Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data sets by Lievens et al. (2012) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkr775>. Provides one single tabular tidy data set in long format, encompassing three dilution series, targeted against the soybean Lectin endogene. Each dilution series was assayed in one of the following PCR-efficiency-modifying conditions: no PCR inhibition, inhibition by isopropanol and inhibition by tannic acid. The inhibitors were co-diluted along with the dilution series. The co-dilution series consists of a five-point, five-fold serial dilution. For each concentration there are 18 replicates. Each amplification curve is 60 cycles long. Original raw data file is available at the Supplementary Data section at Nucleic Acids Research Online <doi:10.1093/nar/gkr775>.

This package provides a framework that allows for easy logging of changes in data. Main features: start tracking changes by adding a single line of code to an existing script. Track changes in multiple datasets, using multiple loggers. Add custom-built loggers or use loggers offered by other packages. <doi:10.18637/jss.v098.i01>.

Conducting Line transect-based one-dimensional nearest neighbor distance and conducting hypothesis testing related to local distributional aggregation pattern of species. The reason that such a package is needed is because traditional two-dimensional nearest neighbor distance is not applicable when biodiversity data are sampled via optimal ecological survey methods, like line transects. In comparison to the entire studied region, line transect-collected local biodiversity data are spatially constrained and sampling-limited. To this end, two-dimensional nearest neighbor distance would tend to over-estimate distributional aggregation pattern of species when using this limited biodiversity information. Accordingly, one-dimensional nearest neighbor distance is needed and the associated statistical testing should be established for analyzing line transect-derived biodiversity data.

This package provides a family of three complementary goodness-of-fit tests based on an adaptation of Hotelling's T-squared statistic applied to vectors of sample log-cumulants (Mellin statistics) for positive-support reliability data. The package provides the asymptotic chi-squared reference and parametric bootstrap p-values for reliable finite-sample inference, covering the Weibull, Frechet, Gamma, Inverse-Gamma, Log-Normal, and Log-Logistic families. It also provides three diagnostic diagrams (log-cumulant, kurtosis-skewness, and coefficient-of-variation) with bootstrap concentration ellipses, in the spirit of moment-ratio diagrams. Methods are described in Santos, Ospina, Espinheira and Oliveira (2025).
