This package implements the S-type estimators, novel robust estimators for general linear regression models, addressing challenges such as outlier contamination and leverage points. This package introduces robust regression techniques to provide a robust alternative to classical methods and includes diagnostic tools for assessing model fit and performance. The methodology is based on the study, "Comparison of the Robust Methods in the General Linear Regression Model" by Sazak and Mutlu (2023). This package is designed for statisticians and applied researchers seeking advanced tools for robust regression analysis.

Decision support tool for prioritizing sites for ecological surveys based on their potential to improve plans for conserving biodiversity (e.g. plans for establishing protected areas). Given a set of sites that could potentially be acquired for conservation management, it can be used to generate and evaluate plans for surveying additional sites. Specifically, plans for ecological surveys can be generated using various conventional approaches (e.g. maximizing expected species richness, geographic coverage, diversity of sampled environmental algorithms. After generating such survey plans, they can be evaluated using conditions) and maximizing value of information. Please note that several functions depend on the Gurobi optimization software (available from <https://www.gurobi.com>). Additionally, the JAGS software (available from <https://mcmc-jags.sourceforge.io/>) is required to fit hierarchical generalized linear models. For further details, see Hanson et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/1365-2664.14309>.

Extensions of standard diagnostics to complex survey data are included: standardized residuals, leverages, Cook's D, dfbetas, dffits, condition indexes, and variance inflation factors as found in Li and Valliant (Surv. Meth., 2009, 35(1), pp. 15-24; Jnl. of Off. Stat., 2011, 27(1), pp. 99-119; Jnl. of Off. Stat., 2015, 31(1), pp. 61-75); Liao and Valliant (Surv. Meth., 2012, 38(1), pp. 53-62; Surv. Meth., 2012, 38(2), pp. 189-202). Variance inflation factors and condition indexes are also computed for some general linear models as described in Liao (U. Maryland thesis, 2010).

This package provides functions for sample size estimation and simulation in clinical trials. Includes methods for selecting the best group using the Indifference-zone approach, as well as designs for non-inferiority, equivalence, and negative binomial models.
