This package provides tools for calculating I-Scores, a simple way to measure how successful minor political parties are at influencing the major parties in their environment. I-Scores are designed to be a more comprehensive measurement of minor party success than vote share and legislative seats won, the current standard measurements, which do not reflect the strategies that most minor parties employ. The procedure leverages the Manifesto Project's NLP model to identify the issue areas that sentences discuss, see Burst et al. (2024) <doi:10.25522/manifesto.manifestoberta.56topics.context.2024.1.1>, and the Wordfish algorithm to estimate the relative positions that platforms take on those issue areas, see Slapin and Proksch (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-5907.2008.00338.x>.

Multiple Imputation has been shown to be a flexible method to impute missing values by Van Buuren (2007) <doi:10.1177/0962280206074463>. Expanding on this, random forests have been shown to be an accurate model by Stekhoven and Buhlmann <arXiv:1105.0828> to impute missing values in datasets. They have the added benefits of returning out of bag error and variable importance estimates, as well as being simple to run in parallel.

Suite of interactive functions and helpers for selecting and editing geospatial data.

This package provides tools for performing mathematical morphology operations, such as erosion and dilation, on data of arbitrary dimensionality. Can also be used for finding connected components, resampling, filtering, smoothing and other image processing-style operations.

Computing package for Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) using Alkire-Foster method. Given N individuals, each person has D indicators of deprivation, the package compute MPI value to represent the degree of poverty in a population. The inputs are 1) an N by D matrix, which has the element (i,j) represents whether an individual i is deprived in an indicator j (1 is deprived and 0 is not deprived), and 2) the deprivation threshold. The main output is the MPI value, which has the range between zero and one. MPI value is approaching one if almost all people are deprived in all indicators, and it is approaching zero if almost no people are deprived in any indicator. Please see Alkire S., Chatterjee, M., Conconi, A., Seth, S. and Ana Vaz (2014) <doi:10.35648/20.500.12413/11781/ii039> for The Alkire-Foster methodology.

It computes arbitrary products moments (mean vector and variance-covariance matrix), for some double truncated (and folded) multivariate distributions. These distributions belong to the family of selection elliptical distributions, which includes well known skewed distributions as the unified skew-t distribution (SUT) and its particular cases as the extended skew-t (EST), skew-t (ST) and the symmetric student-t (T) distribution. Analogous normal cases unified skew-normal (SUN), extended skew-normal (ESN), skew-normal (SN), and symmetric normal (N) are also included. Density, probabilities and random deviates are also offered for these members.

Programmatic interface to several NASA Earth Observation OPeNDAP servers (Open-source Project for a Network Data Access Protocol) (<https://www.opendap.org/>). Allows for easy downloads of MODIS subsets, as well as other Earth Observation datacubes, in a time-saving and efficient way : by sampling it at the very downloading phase (spatially, temporally and dimensionally).

This package provides a number of testthat tests that can be used to verify that tidy(), glance() and augment() methods meet consistent specifications. This allows methods for the same generic to be spread across multiple packages, since all of those packages can make the same guarantees to users about returned objects.

Mobile Motor Activity Research Consortium for Health (mMARCH) is a collaborative network of studies of clinical and community samples that employ common clinical, biological, and digital mobile measures across involved studies. One of the main scientific goals of mMARCH sites is developing a better understanding of the inter-relationships between accelerometry-measured physical activity (PA), sleep (SL), and circadian rhythmicity (CR) and mental and physical health in children, adolescents, and adults. Currently, there is no consensus on a standard procedure for a data processing pipeline of raw accelerometry data, and few open-source tools to facilitate their development. The R package GGIR is the most prominent open-source software package that offers great functionality and tremendous user flexibility to process raw accelerometry data. However, even with GGIR', processing done in a harmonized and reproducible fashion requires a non-trivial amount of expertise combined with a careful implementation. In addition, novel accelerometry-derived features of PA/SL/CR capturing multiscale, time-series, functional, distributional and other complimentary aspects of accelerometry data being constantly proposed and become available via non-GGIR R implementations. To address these issues, mMARCH developed a streamlined harmonized and reproducible pipeline for loading and cleaning raw accelerometry data, extracting features available through GGIR as well as through non-GGIR R packages, implementing several data and feature quality checks, merging all features of PA/SL/CR together, and performing multiple analyses including Joint Individual Variation Explained (JIVE), an unsupervised machine learning dimension reduction technique that identifies latent factors capturing joint across and individual to each of three domains of PA/SL/CR. In detail, the pipeline generates all necessary R/Rmd/shell files for data processing after running GGIR for accelerometer data. In module 1, all csv files in the GGIR output directory were read, transformed and then merged. In module 2, the GGIR output files were checked and summarized in one excel sheet. In module 3, the merged data was cleaned according to the number of valid hours on each night and the number of valid days for each subject. In module 4, the cleaned activity data was imputed by the average Euclidean norm minus one (ENMO) over all the valid days for each subject. Finally, a comprehensive report of data processing was created using Rmarkdown, and the report includes few exploratory plots and multiple commonly used features extracted from minute level actigraphy data.

Most multilevel methodologies can only model macro-micro multilevel situations in an unbiased way, wherein group-level predictors (e.g., city temperature) are used to predict an individual-level outcome variable (e.g., citizen personality). In contrast, this R package enables researchers to model micro-macro situations, wherein individual-level (micro) predictors (and other group-level predictors) are used to predict a group-level (macro) outcome variable in an unbiased way.

Fit multi-level models with possibly correlated random effects using Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation. Such models allow smoothing over space and time and are useful in, for example, small area estimation.

This package provides a color palette generator inspired by Mexican politics, with colors ranging from red on the left to gray in the middle and green on the right. Palette options range from only a few colors to several colors, but with discrete and continuous options to offer greatest flexibility to the user. This package allows for a range of applications, from mapping brief discrete scales (e.g., four colors for Morena, PRI, and PAN) to continuous interpolated arrays including dozens of shades graded from red to green.

Impute the covariance matrix of incomplete data so that factor analysis can be performed. Imputations are made using multiple imputation by Multivariate Imputation with Chained Equations (MICE) and combined with Rubin's rules. Parametric Fieller confidence intervals and nonparametric bootstrap confidence intervals can be obtained for the variance explained by different numbers of principal components. The method is described in Nassiri et al. (2018) <doi:10.3758/s13428-017-1013-4>.

This package provides a set of classes and methods to set up and run multi-species, trait based and community size spectrum ecological models, focused on the marine environment.

Allows the user to generate a list of features (gene, pseudo, RNA, CDS, and/or UTR) directly from NCBI database for any species with a current build available. Option to save downloaded and formatted files is available, and the user can prioritize the feature list based on type and assembly builds present in the current build used. The user can then use the list of features generated or provide a list to map a set of markers (designed for SNP markers with a single base pair position available) to the closest feature based on the map build. This function does require map positions of the markers to be provided and the positions should be based on the build being queried through NCBI.

Initially created for statistics at Middlebury College.

Bindings for hierarchical regression models for use with the parsnip package. Models include longitudinal generalized linear models (Liang and Zeger, 1986) <doi:10.1093/biomet/73.1.13>, and mixed-effect models (Pinheiro and Bates) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4419-0318-1_1>.

With foundations on the work by Goutali and Chebana (2024) <doi:10.1016/j.envsoft.2024.106090>, this package contains various univariate and multivariate trend tests. The main functions regard the Multivariate Dependence Trend and Multivariate Overall Trend tests as proposed by Goutali and Chebana (2024), as well as a plotting function that proves useful as a summary and complement of the tests. Although many packages and methods carry univariate tests, the Mann-Kendall and Spearman's rho test implementations are included in the package with an adapted version to hydrological formulation (e.g. as in Rao and Hamed 1998 <doi:10.1016/S0022-1694(97)00125-X> or Chebana 2022 <doi:10.1016/C2021-0-01317-1>). For better understanding of the example use of the functions, three datasets are included. These are synthetic data and shouldn't be used beyond that purpose.
