Streamline searching, downloading and formatting of nature media files (e.g. audios, photos) from online repositories. The package offers functions for obtaining media metadata from online repositories, downloading associated media files and updating data sets with new records.

Smooth a sequence of terra rasters using various algorithms (currently moving average, weighted moving average, and exponential smoothing). Also includes wrappers to smooth a vector time-series using these same algorithms. All smoothers use Rcpp implementations for performance.

Reconstructs forest stand basal area and stem density at user-specified reference years using tree-level inventory data. The method estimates missing tree ages, back-calculates diameters using species-specific growth rates, and incorporates decay-class-based decomposition to infer mortality timing for dead trees. Results are returned in a tidy long format suitable for analysis and visualization.

An implementation of ranked sparsity methods, including penalized regression methods such as the sparsity-ranked lasso, its non-convex alternatives, and elastic net, as well as the sparsity-ranked Bayesian Information Criterion. As described in Peterson and Cavanaugh (2022) <doi:10.1007/s10182-021-00431-7>, ranked sparsity is a philosophy with methods primarily useful for variable selection in the presence of prior informational asymmetry, which occurs in the context of trying to perform variable selection in the presence of interactions and/or polynomials. Ultimately, this package attempts to facilitate dealing with cumbersome interactions and polynomials while not avoiding them entirely. Typically, models selected under ranked sparsity principles will also be more transparent, having fewer falsely selected interactions and polynomials than other methods.

This package provides a turn-key workflow for LLM-assisted systematic-review screening. The package ranks a corpus of titles and abstracts with an ensemble of open-source large language models served locally by Ollama', then applies the SAFE stopping rule to identify the records a human should screen. Defaults match the four-LLM mean ensemble and the SAFE configuration recommended by Spillias et al. (2026). A companion Shiny app walks the human reviewer through the records above the stopping point. Complementary to the AIscreenR package of Vembye et al. (2025) <doi:10.1037/met0000769>, which targets cloud-hosted GPT models via the OpenAI API; screenllm targets locally-served open-weights ensembles with an integrated stopping rule.

We provide functionality to implement penalized PCA with an option to smooth the objective function using Nesterov smoothing. Two functions are available to compute a user-specified number of eigenvectors. The function unsmoothed_penalized_EV() computes a penalized PCA without smoothing and has three parameters (the input matrix, the Lasso penalty, and the number of desired eigenvectors). The function smoothed_penalized_EV() computes a smoothed penalized PCA using the same parameters and additionally requires the specification of a smoothing parameter. Both functions return a matrix having the desired eigenvectors as columns.

This package provides functions and utilities to perform Statistical Analyses in the Six Sigma way. Through the DMAIC cycle (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control), you can manage several Quality Management studies: Gage R&R, Capability Analysis, Control Charts, Loss Function Analysis, etc. Data frames used in the books "Six Sigma with R" [ISBN 978-1-4614-3652-2] and "Quality Control with R" [ISBN 978-3-319-24046-6], are also included in the package.

This package provides a consistent, semi-supervised, non-parametric survival curve estimator optimized for efficient use of Electronic Health Record (EHR) data with a limited number of current status labels. See van der Laan and Robins (1997) <doi:10.2307/2670119>.

These functions were developed within SECFISH project (Strengthening regional cooperation in the area of fisheries data collection-Socio-economic data collection for fisheries, aquaculture and the processing industry at EU level). They are aimed at identifying correlations between costs and transversal variables by metier using individual vessel data and for disaggregating variable costs from fleet segment to metier level.

Regression trunk model estimation proposed by Dusseldorp and Meulman (2004) <doi:10.1007/bf02295641> and Dusseldorp, Conversano, Van Os (2010) <doi:10.1198/jcgs.2010.06089>, integrating a regression tree and a multiple regression model.

An ADMM implementation of SDP-1, a semidefinite programming relaxation of the maximum likelihood estimator for fitting a block model. SDP-1 has a tendency to produce equal-sized blocks and is ideal for producing a form of network histogram approximating a nonparametric graphon model. Alternatively, it can be used for community detection. (This is experimental code, proceed with caution.).

Hierarchical slicer-style input for Shiny applications with multi-selection, tri-state checkboxes, search, cascading selection, and a structured selection value for analytics workflows.

We provide functions for estimation and inference of locally-stationary time series using the sieve methods and bootstrapping procedure. In addition, it also contains functions to generate Daubechies and Coiflet wavelet by Cascade algorithm and to process data visualization.

This package provides a graphical and automated pipeline for the analysis of short time-series in R ('santaR'). This approach is designed to accommodate asynchronous time sampling (i.e. different time points for different individuals), inter-individual variability, noisy measurements and large numbers of variables. Based on a smoothing splines functional model, santaR is able to detect variables highlighting significantly different temporal trajectories between study groups. Designed initially for metabolic phenotyping, santaR is also suited for other Systems Biology disciplines. Command line and graphical analysis (via a shiny application) enable fast and parallel automated analysis and reporting, intuitive visualisation and comprehensive plotting options for non-specialist users.

This package provides functions for the stratigraphic analysis of phylogenetic trees.

This package provides a new diagram for the verification of vector variables (wind, current, etc) generated by multiple models against a set of observations is presented in this package. It has been designed as a generalization of the Taylor diagram to two dimensional quantities. It is based on the analysis of the two-dimensional structure of the mean squared error matrix between model and observations. The matrix is divided into the part corresponding to the relative rotation and the bias of the empirical orthogonal functions of the data. The full set of diagnostics produced by the analysis of the errors between model and observational vector datasets comprises the errors in the means, the analysis of the total variance of both datasets, the rotation matrix corresponding to the principal components in observation and model, the angle of rotation of model-derived empirical orthogonal functions respect to the ones from observations, the standard deviation of model and observations, the root mean squared error between both datasets and the squared two-dimensional correlation coefficient. See the output of function UVError() in this package.

Processing and analysis of field collected or simulated sprinkler system catch data (depths) to characterize irrigation uniformity and efficiency using standard and other measures. Standard measures include the Christiansen coefficient of uniformity (CU) as found in Christiansen, J.E.(1942, ISBN:0138779295, "Irrigation by Sprinkling"); and distribution uniformity (DU), potential efficiency of the low quarter (PELQ), and application efficiency of the low quarter (AELQ) that are implementations of measures of the same notation in Keller, J. and Merriam, J.L. (1978) "Farm Irrigation System Evaluation: A Guide for Management" <https://pdf.usaid.gov/pdf_docs/PNAAG745.pdf>. spreval::DU.lh is similar to spreval::DU but is the distribution uniformity of the low half instead of low quarter as in DU. spreval::PELQT is a version of spreval::PELQ adapted for traveling systems instead of lateral move or solid-set sprinkler systems. The function spreval::eff is analogous to the method used to compute application efficiency for furrow irrigation presented in Walker, W. and Skogerboe, G.V. (1987,ISBN:0138779295, "Surface Irrigation: Theory and Practice"),that uses piecewise integration of infiltrated depth compared against soil-moisture deficit (SMD), when the argument "target" is set equal to SMD. The other functions contained in the package provide graphical representation of sprinkler system uniformity, and other standard univariate parametric and non-parametric statistical measures as applied to sprinkler system catch depths. A sample data set of field test data spreval::catchcan (catch depths) is provided and is used in examples and vignettes. Agricultural systems emphasized, but this package can be used for landscape irrigation evaluation, and a landscape (turf) vignette is included as an example application.

The straightforward filtering index (SFINX) identifies true positive protein interactions in a fast, user-friendly, and highly accurate way. It is not only useful for the filtering of affinity purification - mass spectrometry (AP-MS) data, but also for similar types of data resulting from other co-complex interactomics technologies, such as TAP-MS, Virotrap and BioID. SFINX can also be used via the website interface at <http://sfinx.ugent.be>.

Suns-Voc (or Isc-Voc) curves can provide the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the diode of photovoltaic cells without the effect of series resistance. Here, Suns-Voc curves can be constructed with outdoor time-series I-V curves [1,2,3] of full-size photovoltaic (PV) modules instead of having to be measured in the lab. Time series of four different power loss modes can be calculated based on obtained Isc-Voc curves.

Spectral and Average Autocorrelation Zero Distance Density ('sazed') is a method for estimating the season length of a seasonal time series. sazed is aimed at practitioners, as it employs only domain-agnostic preprocessing and does not depend on parameter tuning or empirical constants. The computation of sazed relies on the efficient autocorrelation computation methods suggested by Thibauld Nion (2012, URL: <https://etudes.tibonihoo.net/literate_musing/autocorrelations.html>) and by Bob Carpenter (2012, URL: <https://lingpipe-blog.com/2012/06/08/autocorrelation-fft-kiss-eigen/>).

This package produces various measures of expected treatment effect heterogeneity under an assumption of homogeneity across subgroups. Graphical presentations are created to compare these expected differences with the observed differences.
