Studies otolith shape variation among fish populations. Otoliths are calcified structures found in the inner ear of teleost fish and their shape has been known to vary among several fish populations and stocks, making them very useful in taxonomy, species identification and to study geographic variations. The package extends previously described software used for otolith shape analysis by allowing the user to automatically extract closed contour outlines from a large number of images, perform smoothing to eliminate pixel noise described in Haines and Crampton (2000) <doi:10.1111/1475-4983.00148>, choose from conducting either a Fourier or wavelet see Gençay et al (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0378-4371(00)00463-5> transform to the outlines and visualize the mean shape. The output of the package are independent Fourier or wavelet coefficients which can be directly imported into a wide range of statistical packages in R. The package might prove useful in studies of any two dimensional objects.

Carries out a two-level sample selection where the possibility of an initially selected site not wanting to participate is anticipated, and the site is optimally replaced. The procedure aims to reduce bias (and/or loss of external validity) with respect to the target population. In selecting units and sub-units, sitepickR uses the cube method developed by Deville & Tillé', (2004) <http://www.math.helsinki.fi/msm/banocoss/Deville_Tille_2004.pdf> and described in Tillé (2011) <https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/pub/12-001-x/2011002/article/11609-eng.pdf?st=5-sx8Q8n>. The cube method is a probability sampling method that is designed to satisfy criteria for balance between the sample and the population. Recent research has shown that this method performs well in simulations for studies of educational programs (see Fay & Olsen (2021, under review). To implement the cube method, sitepickR uses the sampling R package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=sampling>. To implement statistical matching, sitepickR uses the MatchIt R package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=MatchIt>.

This package creates a wrapper for the SuiteSparse routines that execute the Takahashi equations. These equations compute the elements of the inverse of a sparse matrix at locations where the its Cholesky factor is structurally non-zero. The resulting matrix is known as a sparse inverse subset. Some helper functions are also implemented. Support for spam matrices is currently limited and will be implemented in the future. See Rue and Martino (2007) <doi:10.1016/j.jspi.2006.07.016> and Zammit-Mangion and Rougier (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2018.02.001> for the application of these equations to statistics.
