Calculate 22 summary statistics coded in C on time-series vectors to enable pattern detection, classification, and regression applications in the feature space as proposed by <doi:10.1007/s10618-019-00647-x>.

This project is a tool for words edit similarity joins (a.k.a. all-pairs similarity search) under small (< 3) edit distance constraints. It works for Levenshtein/Hamming distances and words from any alphabet. The software was originally developed for joining amino-acid/nucleotide sequences from Adaptive Immune Repertoires, where the number of words is relatively large (10^5-10^6) and the average length of words is relatively small (10-100).

Interaction with "RevBayes" via R. Objects created in "RevBayes" can be passed into the R environment, and many types can be converted into similar R objects. To download "RevBayes", go to <https://revbayes.github.io/download>.

This package provides a custom implementation of the apriori algorithm and binomial tests to identify combinations of features (genes, variants etc) significantly enriched for simultaneous mutations/events from sparse Boolean input, see Vijay Kumar Pounraja, Santhosh Girirajan (2021). Version 1.1 includes a minor adjustment to the number of combinations to be considered for multiple testing correction. This updated version is more conservative in its approach and hence more selective. <doi:10.1101/2021.10.01.462832>.

Package to Handle R Requests from R Service Bus Applications with JSON Payloads in a generic way. The incoming request is encoded as a string (character vector of length one) containing the JSON file passed through by the client.

This package provides a collection of several utility functions related to resolvable and affine resolvable Partially Balanced Incomplete Block Designs (PBIBDs), have been developed. In the class of resolvable designs, affine resolvable designs are said to be optimal, Bailey (1995) <doi:10.2307/2337638>. Here, the package contains three functions to generate and study the characterization properties of these designs. Developed functions are named as PBIBD1(), PBIBD2() and PBIBD3(), in which first two functions are used to generate two new series of affine resolvable PBIBDs and last one is used to generate a new series of resolvable PBIBDs, respectively. In addition, these functions can also be used to generate design parameters (v, b, r and k), canonical efficiency factors, variance factor between associates and average variance factors of the generated designs. Here v is the number of treatments, b (= b1 + b2, in case of non-proper design) is the number of blocks, r is the number of replications and k (= k1 + k2; k1 is the size of b1 and k2 is the size of b2) is the block size.

Gene-environment (GÃ E) interactions have important implications to elucidate the etiology of complex diseases beyond the main genetic and environmental effects. Outliers and data contamination in disease phenotypes of GÃ E studies have been commonly encountered, leading to the development of a broad spectrum of robust penalization methods. Nevertheless, within the Bayesian framework, the issue has not been taken care of in existing studies. We develop a robust Bayesian variable selection method for GÃ E interaction studies. The proposed Bayesian method can effectively accommodate heavy-tailed errors and outliers in the response variable while conducting variable selection by accounting for structural sparsity. In particular, the spike-and-slab priors have been imposed on both individual and group levels to identify important main and interaction effects. An efficient Gibbs sampler has been developed to facilitate fast computation. The Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms of the proposed and alternative methods are efficiently implemented in C++.

Calculate RNNI distance between and manipulate with ranked trees. RNNI stands for Ranked Nearest Neighbour Interchange and is an extension of the classical NNI space (space of trees created by the NNI moves) to ranked trees, where internal nodes are ordered according to their heights (usually assumed to be times). The RNNI distance takes the tree topology into account, as standard NNI does, but also penalizes changes in the order of internal nodes, i.e. changes in the order of times of evolutionary events. For more information about the RNNI space see: Gavryushkin et al. (2018) <doi:10.1007/s00285-017-1167-9>, Collienne & Gavryushkin (2021) <doi:10.1007/s00285-021-01567-5>, Collienne et al. (2021) <doi:10.1007/s00285-021-01685-0>, and Collienne (2021) <http://hdl.handle.net/10523/12606>.

This package provides functions to construct efficient row-column designs for 3-level factorial experiments in 3 rows. The designs ensure the estimation of all main effects (full efficiency) and two factor interactions in minimum replications. For more details, see Dey, A. and Mukerjee, R. (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2012.06.014> and Dash, S., Parsad, R., and Gupta, V. K. (2013) <doi:10.1007/s40003-013-0059-5>.

This package provides functions for the Bayesian analysis of extreme value models. The rust package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=rust> is used to simulate a random sample from the required posterior distribution. The functionality of revdbayes is similar to the evdbayes package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=evdbayes>, which uses Markov Chain Monte Carlo ('MCMC') methods for posterior simulation. In addition, there are functions for making inferences about the extremal index, using the models for threshold inter-exceedance times of Suveges and Davison (2010) <doi:10.1214/09-AOAS292> and Holesovsky and Fusek (2020) <doi:10.1007/s10687-020-00374-3>. Also provided are d,p,q,r functions for the Generalised Extreme Value ('GEV') and Generalised Pareto ('GP') distributions that deal appropriately with cases where the shape parameter is very close to zero.

This package provides a machine learning algorithm that merges satellite and ground precipitation data using Random Forest for spatial prediction, residual modeling for bias correction, and quantile mapping for adjustment, ensuring accurate estimates across temporal scales and regions.

Outliers virtually exist in any datasets of any application field. To avoid the impact of outliers, we need to use robust estimators. Classical estimators of multivariate mean and covariance matrix are the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix. Outliers will affect the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix, and thus they will affect the classical factor analysis which depends on the classical estimators (Pison, G., Rousseeuw, P.J., Filzmoser, P. and Croux, C. (2003) <doi:10.1016/S0047-259X(02)00007-6>). So it is necessary to use the robust estimators of the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix. There are several robust estimators in the literature: Minimum Covariance Determinant estimator, Orthogonalized Gnanadesikan-Kettenring, Minimum Volume Ellipsoid, M, S, and Stahel-Donoho. The most direct way to make multivariate analysis more robust is to replace the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix of the classical estimators to robust estimators (Maronna, R.A., Martin, D. and Yohai, V. (2006) <doi:10.1002/0470010940>) (Todorov, V. and Filzmoser, P. (2009) <doi:10.18637/jss.v032.i03>), which is our choice of robust factor analysis. We created an object oriented solution for robust factor analysis based on new S4 classes.

Standard and extensible Eddy-Covariance data post-processing (Wutzler et al. (2018) <doi:10.5194/bg-15-5015-2018>) includes uStar-filtering, gap-filling, and flux-partitioning. The Eddy-Covariance (EC) micrometeorological technique quantifies continuous exchange fluxes of gases, energy, and momentum between an ecosystem and the atmosphere. It is important for understanding ecosystem dynamics and upscaling exchange fluxes. (Aubinet et al. (2012) <doi:10.1007/978-94-007-2351-1>). This package inputs pre-processed (half-)hourly data and supports further processing. First, a quality-check and filtering is performed based on the relationship between measured flux and friction velocity (uStar) to discard biased data (Papale et al. (2006) <doi:10.5194/bg-3-571-2006>). Second, gaps in the data are filled based on information from environmental conditions (Reichstein et al. (2005) <doi:10.1111/j.1365-2486.2005.001002.x>). Third, the net flux of carbon dioxide is partitioned into its gross fluxes in and out of the ecosystem by night-time based and day-time based approaches (Lasslop et al. (2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1365-2486.2009.02041.x>).

An implementation of the RainFARM (Rainfall Filtered Autoregressive Model) stochastic precipitation downscaling method (Rebora et al. (2006) <doi:10.1175/JHM517.1>). Adapted for climate downscaling according to D'Onofrio et al. (2018) <doi:10.1175/JHM-D-13-096.1> and for complex topography as in Terzago et al. (2018) <doi:10.5194/nhess-18-2825-2018>. The RainFARM method is based on the extrapolation to small scales of the Fourier spectrum of a large-scale precipitation field, using a fixed logarithmic slope and random phases at small scales, followed by a nonlinear transformation of the resulting linearly correlated stochastic field. RainFARM allows to generate ensembles of spatially downscaled precipitation fields which conserve precipitation at large scales and whose statistical properties are consistent with the small-scale statistics of observed precipitation, based only on knowledge of the large-scale precipitation field.

This package provides functions to query (filter or transform), pivot (convert from array-of-objects to object-of-arrays, for easy import as R data frame), search, patch (edit), and validate (against JSON Schema') JSON and NDJSON strings, files, or URLs. Query and pivot support JSONpointer', JSONpath or JMESpath expressions. The implementation uses the jsoncons <https://danielaparker.github.io/jsoncons/> header-only library; the library is easily linked to other packages for direct access to C++ functionality not implemented here.

This package provides a research infrastructure to develop and evaluate collaborative filtering recommender algorithms.

The Brazilian Central Bank API delivers many datasets which regard economic activity, regional economy, international economy, public finances, credit indicators and many more. For more information please see <http://dadosabertos.bcb.gov.br/>. These datasets can be accessed through rbcb functions and can be obtained in different data structures common to R ('tibble', data.frame', xts', ...).

Modern results of psychometric theory are implemented to provide users with a way of evaluating the internal structure of a set of items guided by theory. These methods are discussed in detail in VanderWeele and Padgett (2024) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/rnbk5>. The relative excess correlation matrices will, generally, have numerous negative entries even if all of the raw correlations between each pair of indicators are positive. The positive deviations of the relative excess correlation matrix entries help identify clusters of indicators that are more strongly related to one another, providing insights somewhat analogous to factor analysis, but without the need for rotations or decisions concerning the number of factors. A goal similar to exploratory/confirmatory factor analysis, but recmetrics uses novel methods that do not rely on assumptions of latent variables or latent variable structures.

The aim of this package is to manipulate relational data models in R. It provides functions to create, modify and export data models in json format. It also allows importing models created with MySQL Workbench (<https://www.mysql.com/products/workbench/>). These functions are accessible through a graphical user interface made with shiny'. Constraints such as types, keys, uniqueness and mandatory fields are automatically checked and corrected when editing a model. Finally, real data can be confronted to a model to check their compatibility.
