This package implements an approach aimed at assessing the accuracy and effectiveness of raw scores obtained in scales that contain locally dependent items. The program uses as input the calibration (structural) item estimates obtained from fitting extended unidimensional factor-analytic solutions in which the existing local dependencies are included. Measures of reliability (Omega) and information are proposed at three levels: (a) total score, (b) bivariate-doublet, and (c) item-by-item deletion, and are compared to those that would be obtained if all the items had been locally independent. All the implemented procedures can be obtained from: (a) linear factor-analytic solutions in which the item scores are treated as approximately continuous, and (b) non-linear solutions in which the item scores are treated as ordered-categorical. A detailed guide can be obtained at the following url.

Powerful graphical displays and statistical tools for structured problem solving and diagnosis. The functions of the sherlock package are especially useful for applying the process of elimination as a problem diagnosis technique. The sherlock package was designed to seamlessly work with the tidyverse set of packages and provides a collection of graphical displays built on top of the ggplot and plotly packages, such as different kinds of small multiple plots as well as helper functions such as adding reference lines, normalizing observations, reading in data or saving analysis results in an Excel file.

"The Soil Texture Wizard" is a set of R functions designed to produce texture triangles (also called texture plots, texture diagrams, texture ternary plots), classify and transform soil textures data. These functions virtually allows to plot any soil texture triangle (classification) into any triangle geometry (isosceles, right-angled triangles, etc.). This set of function is expected to be useful to people using soil textures data from different soil texture classification or different particle size systems. Many (> 15) texture triangles from all around the world are predefined in the package. A simple text based graphical user interface is provided: soiltexture_gui().

This package implements the algorithm described in Barron, M., and Li, J. (Not yet published). This algorithm clusters samples from multiple ordered populations, links the clusters across the conditions and identifies marker genes for these changes. The package was designed for scRNA-Seq data but is also applicable to many other data types, just replace cells with samples and genes with variables. The package also contains functions for estimating the parameters for SparseMDC as outlined in the paper. We recommend that users further select their marker genes using the magnitude of the cluster centers.

Identifies constant, additive, multiplicative, and user-defined simplivariate components in numeric data matrices using a genetic algorithm. Supports flexible pattern definitions and provides visualization for general biclustering applications across diverse domains. The method builds on simplivariate models as introduced in Hageman et al. (2008) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0003259> and is related to biclustering frameworks as reviewed by Madeira and Oliveira (2004) <doi:10.1109/TCBB.2004.2>.

Interface to sigma.js graph visualization library including animations, plugins and shiny proxies.

Algorithms to compute spherical k-means partitions. Features several methods, including a genetic and a fixed-point algorithm and an interface to the CLUTO vcluster program.

This package provides functions to estimate, predict and interpolate areal data. For estimation and prediction we assume areal data is an average of an underlying continuous spatial process as in Moraga et al. (2017) <doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2017.04.006>, Johnson et al. (2020) <doi:10.1186/s12942-020-00200-w>, and Wilson and Wakefield (2020) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxy041>. The interpolation methodology is (mostly) based on Goodchild and Lam (1980, ISSN:01652273).

Interval fusion and selection procedures for regression with functional inputs. Methods include a semiparametric approach based on Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR), as described in <doi:10.1007/s11222-018-9806-6> (standard ridge and sparse SIR are also included in the package) and a random forest based approach, as described in <doi:10.1002/sam.11705>.

This package provides functions that simplify calls to the Skilljar API. See <https://api.skilljar.com/docs/> for documentation on the Skilljar API. This package is not supported by Skilljar'.

Implementation of prediction and inference procedures for Synthetic Control methods using least square, lasso, ridge, or simplex-type constraints. Uncertainty is quantified with prediction intervals as developed in Cattaneo, Feng, and Titiunik (2021) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2021.1979561> for a single treated unit and in Cattaneo, Feng, Palomba, and Titiunik (2025) <doi:10.1162/rest_a_01588> for multiple treated units and staggered adoption. More details about the software implementation can be found in Cattaneo, Feng, Palomba, and Titiunik (2025) <doi:10.18637/jss.v113.i01>.

The function SurvRegCens() of this package allows estimation of a Weibull Regression for a right-censored endpoint, one interval-censored covariate, and an arbitrary number of non-censored covariates. Additional functions allow to switch between different parametrizations of Weibull regression used by different R functions, inference for the mean difference of two arbitrarily censored Normal samples, and estimation of canonical parameters from censored samples for several distributional assumptions. Hubeaux, S. and Rufibach, K. (2014) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1402.0432>.

The implementation of the algorithm for estimation of mutual information and channel capacity from experimental data by classification procedures (logistic regression). Technically, it allows to estimate information-theoretic measures between finite-state input and multivariate, continuous output. Method described in Jetka et al. (2019) <doi:10.1371/journal.pcbi.1007132>.

Preview spatial data as leaflet maps with minimal effort. smartmap is optimized for interactive use and distinguishes itself from similar packages because it does not need real spatial ('sp or sf') objects an input; instead, it tries to automatically coerce everything that looks like spatial data to sf objects or leaflet maps. It - for example - supports direct mapping of: a vector containing a single coordinate pair, a two column matrix, a data.frame with longitude and latitude columns, or the path or URL to a (possibly compressed) shapefile'.

Support for reading and writing files in StatDataML---an XML-based data exchange format.

This package provides a function that behaves nearly as base::source() but implements a caching mechanism on disk, project based. It allows to quasi source() R scripts that gather data but can fail or consume to much time to respond even if nothing new is expected. It comes with tools to check and execute on demand or when cache is invalid the script.

This package provides functions to parse and analyze logs generated by ShinyProxy containers. It extracts metadata from log file names, reads log contents, and computes summary statistics (such as the total number of lines and lines containing error messages), facilitating efficient monitoring and debugging of ShinyProxy deployments.

This package provides a small set of helper functions to convert sjPlot HTML-tables to R data.frame objects / knitr::kable-tables.

Statistical analysis with parallel Monte Carlo and moment equations methods of SDEs <doi:10.18637/jss.v096.i02>. Enabled many searchers in different domains to use these equations to modeling practical problems in financial and actuarial modeling and other areas of application, e.g., modeling and simulate of first passage time problem in shallow water using the attractive center (Boukhetala K, 1996) ISBN:1-56252-342-2.

It's my experience that working with shiny is intuitive once you're into it, but can be quite daunting at first. Several common mistakes are fairly predictable, and therefore we can control for these. The functions in this package help match up the assets listed in the UI and the SERVER files, and Visualize the ad hoc structure of the shiny App.
