Fitting multivariate covariance generalized linear models (McGLMs) to data. McGLM is a general framework for non-normal multivariate data analysis, designed to handle multivariate response variables, along with a wide range of temporal and spatial correlation structures defined in terms of a covariance link function combined with a matrix linear predictor involving known matrices. The models take non-normality into account in the conventional way by means of a variance function, and the mean structure is modelled by means of a link function and a linear predictor. The models are fitted using an efficient Newton scoring algorithm based on quasi-likelihood and Pearson estimating functions, using only second-moment assumptions. This provides a unified approach to a wide variety of different types of response variables and covariance structures, including multivariate extensions of repeated measures, time series, longitudinal, spatial and spatio-temporal structures. The package offers a user-friendly interface for fitting McGLMs similar to the glm() R function. See Bonat (2018) <doi:10.18637/jss.v084.i04>, for more information and examples.

Extreme value analysis with the metastatistical extreme value distribution MEVD (Marani and Ignaccolo, 2015, <doi:10.1016/j.advwatres.2015.03.001>) and some of its variants. In particular, analysis can be performed with the simplified metastatistical extreme value distribution SMEV (Marra et al., 2019, <doi:10.1016/j.advwatres.2019.04.002>) and the temporal metastatistical extreme value distribution TMEV (Falkensteiner et al., 2023, <doi:10.1016/j.wace.2023.100601>). Parameters can be estimated with probability weighted moments, maximum likelihood and least squares. The data can also be left-censored prior to a fit. Density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the MEVD, SMEV and TMEV are included. In addition, functions for the calculation of return levels including confidence intervals are provided. For a description of use cases please see the provided references.

Morphometric data collected on animal populations can be subject to measurement error, which leads to biased estimators using line-fitting techniques such as linear regression and reduced major axis. The models implemented in this package were described by Stevenson, Smit, and Setyawan (2026) <DOI:10.1214/26-AOAS2164>. They explicitly accommodate measurement error, allow for multivariate data, estimate relationships between dimensions, allow missing data, and provide tests for isometric relationships between dimensions. Morphometric data of the reef manta ray, collected in Raja Ampat, Indonesia, are included.

Frequentist and Bayesian linear regression for large data sets. Useful when the data does not fit into memory (for both frequentist and Bayesian regression), to make running time manageable (mainly for Bayesian regression), and to reduce the total running time because of reduced or less severe memory-spillover into the virtual memory. This is an implementation of Merge & Reduce for linear regression as described in Geppert, L.N., Ickstadt, K., Munteanu, A., & Sohler, C. (2020). Streaming statistical models via Merge & Reduce'.

This package provides sample data sets that are used in statistics and data science courses at the Münster School of Business. The datasets refer to different business topics but also other domains, e.g. sports, traffic, etc.

The utility of this package is in simulating mixtures of Gaussian distributions with different levels of overlap between mixture components. Pairwise overlap, defined as a sum of two misclassification probabilities, measures the degree of interaction between components and can be readily employed to control the clustering complexity of datasets simulated from mixtures. These datasets can then be used for systematic performance investigation of clustering and finite mixture modeling algorithms. Among other capabilities of MixSim', there are computing the exact overlap for Gaussian mixtures, simulating Gaussian and non-Gaussian data, simulating outliers and noise variables, calculating various measures of agreement between two partitionings, and constructing parallel distribution plots for the graphical display of finite mixture models.

Perform multivariate modeling of evolved traits, with special attention to understanding the interplay of the multi-factorial determinants of their origins in complex ecological settings (Stephens, 2007 <doi:10.1016/j.tree.2006.12.003>). This software primarily concentrates on phylogenetic regression analysis, enabling implementation of tree transformation averaging and visualization functionality. Functions additionally support information theoretic approaches (Grueber, 2011 <doi:10.1111/j.1420-9101.2010.02210.x>; Garamszegi, 2011 <doi:10.1007/s00265-010-1028-7>) such as model averaging and selection of phylogenetic models. Accessory functions are also implemented for coef standardization (Cade 2015), selection uncertainty, and variable importance (Burnham & Anderson 2000). There are other numerous functions for visualizing confounded variables, plotting phylogenetic trees, as well as reporting and exporting modeling results. Lastly, as challenges to ecology are inherently multifarious, and therefore often multi-dataset, this package features several functions to support the identification, interpolation, merging, and updating of missing data and outdated nomenclature.

Energy-Vorticity theory (EVT) is the fundamental theory to describe processes in the atmosphere by combining conserved quantities from hydrodynamics and thermodynamics. The package meteoEVT provides functions to calculate many energetic and vortical quantities, like potential vorticity, Bernoulli function and dynamic state index (DSI) [e.g. Weber and Nevir, 2008, <doi:10.1111/j.1600-0870.2007.00272.x>], for given gridded data, like ERA5 reanalyses. These quantities can be studied directly or can be used for many applications in meteorology, e.g., the objective identification of atmospheric fronts. For this purpose, separate function are provided that allow the detection of fronts based on the thermic front parameter [Hewson, 1998, <doi:10.1017/S1350482798000553>], the F diagnostic [Parfitt et al., 2017, <doi:10.1002/2017GL073662>] and the DSI [Mack et al., 2022, <arXiv:2208.11438>].

Generates Raven like matrices according to different rules and the response list associated to the matrix. The package can generate matrices composed of 4 or 9 cells, along with a response list of 11 elements (the correct response + 10 incorrect responses). The matrices can be generated according to both logical rules (i.e., the relationships between the elements in the matrix are manipulated to create the matrix) and visual-spatial rules (i.e., the visual or spatial characteristics of the elements are manipulated to generate the matrix). The graphical elements of this package are based on the DescTools package. This package has been developed within the PRIN2020 Project (Prot. 20209WKCLL) titled "Computerized, Adaptive and Personalized Assessment of Executive Functions and Fluid Intelligence" and founded by the Italian Ministry of Education and Research.

Misclassification probabilities can either be specified as fixed or estimated. Models with time dependent misclassification may also be fitted.
