This package provides a standardized framework to support the selection and evaluation of parametric survival models for time-to-event data. Includes tools for visualizing survival data, checking proportional hazards assumptions (Grambsch and Therneau, 1994, <doi:10.1093/biomet/81.3.515>), comparing parametric (Ishak and colleagues, 2013, <doi:10.1007/s40273-013-0064-3>), spline (Royston and Parmar, 2002, <doi:10.1002/sim.1203>) and cure models, examining hazard functions, and evaluating model extrapolation. Methods are consistent with recommendations in the NICE Decision Support Unit Technical Support Documents (14 and 21 <https://sheffield.ac.uk/nice-dsu/tsds/survival-analysis>). Results are structured to facilitate integration into decision-analytic models, and reports can be generated with rmarkdown'. The package builds on existing tools including flexsurv (Jackson, 2016, <doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i08>)) and flexsurvcure for estimating cure models.

Simulation of species diversification, fossil records, and phylogenies. While the literature on species birth-death simulators is extensive, including important software like paleotree and APE', we concluded there were interesting gaps to be filled regarding possible diversification scenarios. Here we strove for flexibility over focus, implementing a large array of regimens for users to experiment with and combine. In this way, paleobuddy can be used in complement to other simulators as a flexible jack of all trades, or, in the case of scenarios implemented only here, can allow for robust and easy simulations for novel situations. Environmental data modified from that in RPANDA': Morlon H. et al (2016) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12526>.

This tool computes the probability of detection (POD) curve and the limit of detection (LOD), i.e. the number of copies of the target DNA sequence required to ensure a 95 % probability of detection (LOD95). Other quantiles of the LOD can be specified. This is a reimplementation of the mathematical-statistical modelling of the validation of qualitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods within a single laboratory as provided by the commercial tool PROLab <http://quodata.de/>. The modelling itself has been described by Uhlig et al. (2015) <doi:10.1007/s00769-015-1112-9>.

It provides tools for conducting performance attribution for equity portfolios. The package uses two methods: the Brinson method and a regression-based analysis.

Generates multivariate data with count and continuous variables with a pre-specified correlation matrix. The count and continuous variables are assumed to have Poisson and normal marginals, respectively. The data generation mechanism is a combination of the normal to anything principle and a connection between Poisson and normal correlations in the mixture. The details of the method are explained in Yahav et al. (2012) <DOI:10.1002/asmb.901>.

An easy-to-use tool for implementing Neural Ordinary Differential Equations (NODEs) in pharmacometric software such as Monolix', NONMEM', and nlmixr2', see Bräm et al. (2024) <doi:10.1007/s10928-023-09886-4> and Bräm et al. (2025) <doi:10.1002/psp4.13265>. The main functionality is to automatically generate structural model code describing computations within a neural network. Additionally, parameters and software settings can be initialized automatically. For using these additional functionalities with Monolix', pmxNODE interfaces with MonolixSuite via the lixoftConnectors package. The lixoftConnectors package is distributed with MonolixSuite (<https://monolixsuite.slp-software.com/r-functions/2024R1/package-lixoftconnectors>) and is not available from public repositories.

This package provides data set and function for exploration of Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2017-18 Household questionnaire data for Punjab, Pakistan. The results of the present survey are critically important for the purposes of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) monitoring, as the survey produces information on 32 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicators. The data was collected from 53,840 households selected at the second stage with systematic random sampling out of a sample of 2,692 clusters selected using probability proportional to size sampling. Six questionnaires were used in the survey: (1) a household questionnaire to collect basic demographic information on all de jure household members (usual residents), the household, and the dwelling; (2) a water quality testing questionnaire administered in three households in each cluster of the sample; (3) a questionnaire for individual women administered in each household to all women age 15-49 years; (4) a questionnaire for individual men administered in every second household to all men age 15-49 years; (5) an under-5 questionnaire, administered to mothers (or caretakers) of all children under 5 living in the household; and (6) a questionnaire for children age 5-17 years, administered to the mother (or caretaker) of one randomly selected child age 5-17 years living in the household (<http://www.mics.unicef.org/surveys>).

Applies phylogenetic comparative methods (PCM) and phylogenetic trait imputation using structural equation models (SEM), extending methods from Thorson et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.14076>. This implementation includes a minimal set of features, to allow users to easily read all of the documentation and source code. PCM using SEM includes phylogenetic linear models and structural equation models as nested submodels, but also allows imputation of missing values. Features and comparison with other packages are described in Thorson and van der Bijl (2023) <doi:10.1111/jeb.14234>.

Construct parser combinator functions, higher order functions that parse input. Construction of such parsers is transparent and easy. Their main application is the parsing of structured text files like those generated by laboratory instruments. Based on a paper by Hutton (1992) <doi:10.1017/S0956796800000411>.

The constructs used to study the human psychology have many definitions and corresponding instructions for eliciting and coding qualitative data pertaining to constructs content and for measuring the constructs. This plethora of definitions and instructions necessitates unequivocal reference to specific definitions and instructions in empirical and secondary research. This package implements a human- and machine-readable standard for specifying construct definitions and instructions for measurement and qualitative research based on YAML'. This standard facilitates systematic unequivocal reference to specific construct definitions and corresponding instructions in a decentralized manner (i.e. without requiring central curation; Peters (2020) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/xebhn>).
