Soil health assessment builds information to improve decision in soil management. It facilitates assessment of soil conditions for crop suitability [such as those given by FAO <https://www.fao.org/land-water/databases-and-software/crop-information/en/>], groundwater recharge, fertility, erosion, salinization [<doi:10.1002/ldr.4211>], carbon sequestration, irrigation potential, and status of soil resources.

This package implements the "shrinkage t" statistic introduced in Opgen-Rhein and Strimmer (2007) <DOI:10.2202/1544-6115.1252> and a shrinkage estimate of the "correlation-adjusted t-score" (CAT score) described in Zuber and Strimmer (2009) <DOI:10.1093/bioinformatics/btp460>. It also offers a convenient interface to a number of other regularized t-statistics commonly employed in high-dimensional case-control studies.

This package provides methods for constructing and maintaining a database of presentations in R. The presentations are either ones that the user gives or gave or presentations at a particular event or event series. The package also provides a plot method for the interactive mapping of the presentations using leaflet by grouping them according to country, city, year and other presentation attributes. The markers on the map come with popups providing presentation details (title, institution, event, links to materials and events, and so on).

Models can include multiple shape-constrained (univariate and bivariate) and unconstrained terms. Routines of the package mgcv are used to set up the model matrix, print, and plot the results. Multiple smoothing parameter estimation by the Generalized Cross Validation or similar. See Pya and Wood (2015) <doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9448-7> for an overview. A broad selection of shape-constrained smoothers, linear functionals of smooths with shape constraints, and Gaussian models with AR1 residuals.

Sensitivity analysis for case-control studies in which some cases may meet a more narrow definition of being a case compared to other cases which only meet a broad definition. The sensitivity analyses are described in Small, Cheng, Halloran and Rosenbaum (2013, "Case Definition and Sensitivity Analysis", Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1457-1468). The functions sens.analysis.mh and sens.analysis.aberrant.rank provide sensitivity analyses based on the Mantel-Haenszel test statistic and aberrant rank test statistic as described in Rosenbaum (1991, "Sensitivity Analysis for Matched Case Control Studies", Biometrics); see also Section 1 of Small et al. The function adaptive.case.test provides adaptive inferences as described in Section 5 of Small et al. The function adaptive.noether.brown provides a sensitivity analysis for a matched cohort study based on an adaptive test. The other functions in the package are internal functions.

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 in this package provide solution to classical problem in survey methodology - an optimum sample allocation in stratified sampling. In this context, the optimum allocation is in the classical Tschuprow-Neyman's sense and it satisfies additional lower or upper bounds restrictions imposed on sample sizes in strata. There are few different algorithms available to use, and one them is based on popular sample allocation method that applies Neyman allocation to recursively reduced set of strata. This package also provides the function that computes a solution to the minimum cost allocation problem, which is a minor modification of the classical optimum sample allocation. This problem lies in the determination of a vector of strata sample sizes that minimizes total cost of the survey, under assumed fixed level of the stratified estimator's variance. As in the case of the classical optimum allocation, the problem of minimum cost allocation can be complemented by imposing upper-bounds constraints on sample sizes in strata.

Classical methods for combining summary data from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) only use marginal genetic effects and power can be compromised in the presence of heterogeneity. subgxe is a R package that implements p-value assisted subset testing for association (pASTA), a method developed by Yu et al. (2019) <doi:10.1159/000496867>. pASTA generalizes association analysis based on subsets by incorporating gene-environment interactions into the testing procedure.

Some M-estimators for 1-dimensional location (Bisquare, ML for the Cauchy distribution, and the estimators from application of the smoothing principle introduced in Hampel, Hennig and Ronchetti (2011) to the above, the Huber M-estimator, and the median, main function is smoothm), and Pitman estimator.

Uses C++ via the Rcpp package to parse modern Excel files ('.xlsx'). Memory usage is kept minimal by decompressing only parts of the file at a time, while employing multiple threads to achieve significant runtime reduction. Uses <https://github.com/richgel999/miniz> and <https://github.com/lemire/fast_double_parser>.

SEM Trees and SEM Forests -- an extension of model-based decision trees and forests to Structural Equation Models (SEM). SEM trees hierarchically split empirical data into homogeneous groups each sharing similar data patterns with respect to a SEM by recursively selecting optimal predictors of these differences. SEM forests are an extension of SEM trees. They are ensembles of SEM trees each built on a random sample of the original data. By aggregating over a forest, we obtain measures of variable importance that are more robust than measures from single trees. A description of the method was published by Brandmaier, von Oertzen, McArdle, & Lindenberger (2013) <doi:10.1037/a0030001> and Arnold, Voelkle, & Brandmaier (2020) <doi:10.3389/fpsyg.2020.564403>.
