Likelihood based optimal partitioning and indicator species analysis. Finding the best binary partition for each species based on model selection, with the possibility to take into account modifying/confounding variables as described in Kemencei et al.

The package implements binary and multi-level response models, various measures of uncertainty, Lorenz-curve based thresholding, with native support for parallel computations.

This package provides a user-friendly R-based software package for gene clustering. Clusters are given by genes matched to prespecified profiles across various ordered treatment groups. It is particularly useful for analyzing data obtained from short time-course or dose-response microarray experiments.

Machine learning estimator specifically optimized for predictive modeling of ordered non-numeric outcomes. ocf provides forest-based estimation of the conditional choice probabilities and the covariatesâ marginal effects. Under an "honesty" condition, the estimates are consistent and asymptotically normal and standard errors can be obtained by leveraging the weight-based representation of the random forest predictions. Please reference the use as Di Francesco (2025) <doi:10.1080/07474938.2024.2429596>.

Useful functions for one-sample (individual level data) Mendelian randomization and instrumental variable analyses. The package includes implementations of; the Sanderson and Windmeijer (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2015.06.004> conditional F-statistic, the multiplicative structural mean model Hernán and Robins (2006) <doi:10.1097/01.ede.0000222409.00878.37>, and two-stage predictor substitution and two-stage residual inclusion estimators explained by Terza et al. (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.jhealeco.2007.09.009>.

The ordinal forest (OF) method allows ordinal regression with high-dimensional and low-dimensional data. After having constructed an OF prediction rule using a training dataset, it can be used to predict the values of the ordinal target variable for new observations. Moreover, by means of the (permutation-based) variable importance measure of OF, it is also possible to rank the covariates with respect to their importance in the prediction of the values of the ordinal target variable. OF is presented in Hornung (2020). NOTE: Starting with package version 2.4, it is also possible to obtain class probability predictions in addition to the class point predictions. Moreover, the variable importance values can also be based on the class probability predictions. Preliminary results indicate that this might lead to a better discrimination between influential and non-influential covariates. The main functions of the package are: ordfor() (construction of OF) and predict.ordfor() (prediction of the target variable values of new observations). References: Hornung R. (2020) Ordinal Forests. Journal of Classification 37, 4â 17. <doi:10.1007/s00357-018-9302-x>.

Helper functions for Org files (<https://orgmode.org/>): a generic function toOrg for transforming R objects into Org markup (most useful for data frames; there are also methods for Dates/POSIXt) and a function to read Org tables into data frames.

This package provides functions for quickly creating R and Python scripts, as well as Rmarkdown or Quarto documents with automatically assigned name prefixes. Prefixes are either file counts (e.g. "001") or dates (e.g. "2022-09-26").

Optimal group-sequential designs minimise some function of the expected and maximum sample size whilst controlling the type I error rate and power at a specified level. OptGS provides functions to quickly search for near-optimal group-sequential designs for normally distributed outcomes. The methods used are described in Wason, JMS (2015) <doi:10.18637/jss.v066.i02>.

Use optimization to estimate weights that balance covariates for binary, multi-category, continuous, and multivariate treatments in the spirit of Zubizarreta (2015) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2015.1023805>. The degree of balance can be specified for each covariate. In addition, sampling weights can be estimated that allow a sample to generalize to a population specified with given target moments of covariates, as in matching-adjusted indirect comparison (MAIC).

The Sequence of Physical Processes (SPP) framework is a way of interpreting the transient data derived from oscillatory rheological tests. It is designed to allow both the linear and non-linear deformation regimes to be understood within a single unified framework. This code provides a convenient way to determine the SPP framework metrics for a given sample of oscillatory data. It will produce a text file containing the SPP metrics, which the user can then plot using their software of choice. It can also produce a second text file with additional derived data (components of tangent, normal, and binormal vectors), as well as pre-plotted figures if so desired. It is the R version of the Package SPP by Simon Rogers Group for Soft Matter (Simon A. Rogers, Brian M. Erwin, Dimitris Vlassopoulos, Michel Cloitre (2011) <doi:10.1122/1.3544591>).

This package provides a function to detect and trim outliers in Gaussian mixture model-based clustering using methods described in Clark and McNicholas (2024) <doi:10.1007/s00357-024-09473-3>.

OD-means is a hierarchical adaptive k-means algorithm based on origin-destination pairs. In the first layer of the hierarchy, the clusters are separated automatically based on the variation of the within-cluster distance of each cluster until convergence. The second layer of the hierarchy corresponds to the sub clustering process of small clusters based on the distance between the origin and destination of each cluster.

Different measures which can be used to quantify similarities between regions. These measures are isonymy, isonymy between, Lasker distance, coefficients of Hedrick and Nei. In addition, it calculates biodiversity indices such as Margalef, Menhinick, Simpson, Shannon, Shannon-Wiener, Sheldon, Heip, Hill Numbers, Geometric Mean and Cressie and Read statistics.

I tend to repeat the same code chunks over and over again. At first, this was fine for me and I paid little attention to such redundancies. A little later, when I got tired of manually replacing Linux filepaths with the referring Windows versions, and vice versa, I started to stuff some very frequently used work-steps into functions and, even later, into a proper R package. And that's what this package is - a hodgepodge of various R functions meant to simplify (my) everyday-life coding work without, at the same time, being devoted to a particular scope of application.
