This package implements sample size and power calculation methods with a focus on balance and fairness in study design, inspired by the Zoroastrian deity Rashnu, the judge who weighs truth. Supports survival analysis and various hypothesis testing frameworks.

Higher-order spectra or polyspectra of time series, such as bispectrum and bicoherence, have been investigated in abundant literature and applied to problems of signal detection in a wide range of fields. This package aims to provide a simple API to estimate and analyze them. The current implementation is based on Brillinger and Irizarry (1998) <doi:10.1016/S0165-1684(97)00217-X> for estimating bispectrum or bicoherence, Lii and Helland (1981) <doi:10.1145/355958.355961> for cross-bispectrum, and Kim and Powers (1979) <doi:10.1109/TPS.1979.4317207> for cross-bicoherence.

This package provides a fast implementation of the greedy algorithm for the set cover problem using Rcpp'.

An interface to the BaM (Bayesian Modeling) engine, a Fortran'-based executable aimed at estimating a model with a Bayesian approach and using it for prediction, with a particular focus on uncertainty quantification. Classes are defined for the various building blocks of BaM inference (model, data, error models, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) samplers, predictions). The typical usage is as follows: (1) specify the model to be estimated; (2) specify the inference setting (dataset, parameters, error models...); (3) perform Bayesian-MCMC inference; (4) read, analyse and use MCMC samples; (5) perform prediction experiments. Technical details are available (in French) in Renard (2017) <https://hal.science/hal-02606929v1>. Examples of applications include Mansanarez et al. (2019) <doi:10.1029/2018WR023389>, Le Coz et al. (2021) <doi:10.1002/hyp.14169>, Perret et al. (2021) <doi:10.1029/2020WR027745>, Darienzo et al. (2021) <doi:10.1029/2020WR028607> and Perret et al. (2023) <doi:10.1061/JHEND8.HYENG-13101>.

Mediation analysis for multiple mediators by penalized structural equation models with different types of penalties depending on whether there are multiple mediators and only one exposure and one outcome variable (using sparse group lasso) or multiple exposures, multiple mediators, and multiple outcome variables (using lasso, L1, penalties).

Doubly ranked tests are nonparametric tests for grouped functional and multivariate data. The testing procedure first ranks a matrix (or three dimensional array) of data by column (if a matrix) or by cell (across the third dimension if an array). By default, it calculates a sufficient statistic for the subject's order within the sample using the observed ranks, taken over the columns or cells. Depending on the number of groups, G, the summarized ranks are then analyzed using either a Wilcoxon Rank Sum test (G = 2) or a Kruskal-Wallis (G greater than 2).

This holds r markdown and quarto templates for academic papers and slide decks. It also has templates to create research projects which contain academic papers as vignettes.

Perform mediation analysis via the fast-and-robust bootstrap test ROBMED (Alfons, Ates & Groenen, 2022a; <doi:10.1177/1094428121999096>), as well as various other methods. Details on the implementation and code examples can be found in Alfons, Ates, and Groenen (2022b) <doi:10.18637/jss.v103.i13>. Further discussion on robust mediation analysis can be found in Alfons & Schley (2025) <doi:10.1002/wics.70051>.

This package provides R functions to selectively rasterize components of grid output.

This package provides tamper-evident, hash-chained audit logging for analytical applications.

Covers user attribution, timestamp integrity, mandatory reason capture, chain verification, structured export, and shiny session instrumentation. For more details see <https://reprostats.org/regulog/>. Suitable for any context where accountability and traceability matter: regulated environments (21 CFR Part 11, EU Annex 11), internal tooling, data pipelines, and multi-user shiny applications. Ships with optional qualification scripts (IQ, OQ, PQ) for use in validated computerised systems.

OpenWeatherMap (OWM) <http://openweathermap.org/api> is a service providing weather related data. This package can be used to access current weather data for one location or several locations. It can also be used to forecast weather for 5 days with data for every 3 hours.

PaleoClim <http://www.paleoclim.org> (Brown et al. 2019, <doi:10.1038/sdata.2018.254>) is a set of free, high resolution paleoclimate surfaces covering the whole globe. It includes data on surface temperature, precipitation and the standard bioclimatic variables commonly used in ecological modelling, derived from the HadCM3 general circulation model and downscaled to a spatial resolution of up to 2.5 minutes. Simulations are available for key time periods from the Late Holocene to mid-Pliocene. Data on current and Last Glacial Maximum climate is derived from CHELSA (Karger et al. 2017, <doi:10.1038/sdata.2017.122>) and reprocessed by PaleoClim to match their format; it is available at up to 30 seconds resolution. This package provides a simple interface for downloading PaleoClim data in R, with support for caching and filtering retrieved data by period, resolution, and geographic extent.

Facilities for running simulations from ordinary differential equation ('ODE') models, such as pharmacometrics and other compartmental models. A compilation manager translates the ODE model into C, compiles it, and dynamically loads the object code into R for improved computational efficiency. An event table object facilitates the specification of complex dosing regimens (optional) and sampling schedules. NB: The use of this package requires both C and Fortran compilers, for details on their use with R please see Section 6.3, Appendix A, and Appendix D in the "R Administration and Installation" manual. Also the code is mostly released under GPL. The VODE and LSODA are in the public domain. The vendored SUNDIALS CVODE sources and headers are released under the BSD-3-Clause license. The information is available in the inst/COPYRIGHTS.

Perform wavelet analysis (orthogonal,translation invariant, tensorial, 1-2-3d transforms, thresholding, block thresholding, linear,...) with applications to data compression, denoising/regression or clustering. The core of the code is a port of MATLAB Wavelab toolbox written by D. Donoho, A. Maleki and M. Shahram.

This package provides the robust gamma rank correlation coefficient as introduced by Bodenhofer, Krone, and Klawonn (2013) <DOI:10.1016/j.ins.2012.11.026> along with a permutation-based rank correlation test. The rank correlation coefficient and the test are explicitly designed for dealing with noisy numerical data.

Non-parametric clustering of joint pattern multi-genetic/epigenetic factors. This package contains functions designed to cluster subjects based on gene features including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), DNA methylation (CPG), gene expression (GE), and covariate data. The novel concept follows the general K-means (Hartigan and Wong (1979) <doi:10.2307/2346830> framework but uses weighted Euclidean distances across the gene features to cluster subjects. This approach is unique in that it attempts to capture all pairwise interactions in an effort to cluster based on their complex biological interactions.

This package implements the BERTopic topic modeling pipeline directly in R: transformer-based sentence embedding, Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection dimensionality reduction, Hierarchical Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise clustering, and class-based term frequency-inverse document frequency topic extraction - all without any dependency on Python', conda', or reticulate'. Every stage runs in R through torch', safetensors', tok', uwot', and dbscan'. The package mirrors the accessor API of the original Python package, adds integrated quality metrics and hyperparameter search tools, and introduces part-of-speech filtered and C-value-ranked representation models.

The functions in this package compute robust estimators by minimizing a kernel-based distance known as MMD (Maximum Mean Discrepancy) between the sample and a statistical model. Recent works proved that these estimators enjoy a universal consistency property, and are extremely robust to outliers. Various optimization algorithms are implemented: stochastic gradient is available for most models, but the package also allows gradient descent in a few models for which an exact formula is available for the gradient. In terms of distribution fit, a large number of continuous and discrete distributions are available: Gaussian, exponential, uniform, gamma, Poisson, geometric, etc. In terms of regression, the models available are: linear, logistic, gamma, beta and Poisson.
