Access and analyze the World Bank's World Development Indicators (WDI) using the corresponding API <https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org/knowledgebase/articles/889392-about-the-indicators-api-documentation>. WDI provides more than 24,000 country or region-level indicators for various contexts. wbwdi enables users to download, process and work with WDI series across multiple countries, aggregates, and time periods.

Obtain information on peak flow data from the National River Flow Archive (NRFA) in the United Kingdom, either from the Peak Flow Dataset files <https://nrfa.ceh.ac.uk/data/peak-flow-dataset> once these have been downloaded to the user's computer or using the NRFA's API. These files are in a format suitable for direct use in the WINFAP software, hence the name of the package.

This package provides a collection of functions to perform the Application Programming Interface (API) calls associated with the Walk Score website (www.walkscore.com) within the R environment. These functions can be used to query the Walk Score and Transit Score database for a wide variety of information using R scripts. This package includes the simple Walk Score and Transit Score API calls, which return the scores associated with an input location, as well as calls which return some data used to calculate the scores. These functions are especially useful for mass data collection and gathering Walk Score and Transit Score values for large lists of locations.

Calculate magnetic field at a given location and time according to the World Magnetic Model (WMM). Both the main field and secular variation components are returned. This functionality is useful for physicists and geophysicists who need orthogonal components from WMM. Currently, this package supports annualized time inputs between 2000 and 2025. If desired, users can specify which WMM version to use, e.g., the original WMM2015 release or the recent out-of-cycle WMM2015 release. Methods used to implement WMM, including the Gauss coefficients for each release, are described in the following publications: Chulliat et al (2020) <doi:10.25923/ytk1-yx35>, Chulliat et al (2019) <doi:10.25921/xhr3-0t19>, Chulliat et al (2015) <doi:10.7289/V5TB14V7>, Maus et al (2010) <https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/data/WMMReports/WMM2010_Report.pdf>, McLean et al (2004) <https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/data/WMMReports/TRWMM_2005.pdf>, and Macmillian et al (2000) <https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/data/WMMReports/wmm2000.pdf>.

Easily override the default visual choices in ggplot2 to make your time series plots look more like the Wall Street Journal. Specific theme design choices include omitting x-axis grid lines and displaying sparse light grey y-axis grid lines. Additionally, this allows to label the y-axis scales with your units only displayed on the top-most number, while also removing the bottom most number (unless specifically overridden). The goal is visual simplicity, because who has time to waste looking at a cluttered graph?

Analysing convergent evolution using the Wheatsheaf index, described in Arbuckle et al. (2014) <doi: 10.1111/2041-210X.12195>, and some other unrelated but perhaps useful functions.

Search and download data from the World Bank Data API.

Allows to generate on-demand or by batch, any R documentation file, whatever is kind, data, function, class or package. It populates documentation sections, either automatically or by considering your input. Input code could be standard R code or offensive programming code. Documentation content completeness depends on the type of code you use. With offensive programming code, expect generated documentation to be fully completed, from a format and content point of view. With some standard R code, you will have to activate post processing to fill-in any section that requires complements. Produced manual page validity is automatically tested against R documentation compliance rules. Documentation language proficiency, wording style, and phrasal adjustments remains your job.

Treemaps are a visually appealing graphical representation of numerical data using a space-filling approach. A plane or map is subdivided into smaller areas called cells. The cells in the map are scaled according to an underlying metric which allows to grasp the hierarchical organization and relative importance of many objects at once. This package contains two different implementations of treemaps, Voronoi treemaps and Sunburst treemaps. The Voronoi treemap function subdivides the plot area in polygonal cells according to the highest hierarchical level, then continues to subdivide those parental cells on the next lower hierarchical level, and so on. The Sunburst treemap is a computationally less demanding treemap that does not require iterative refinement, but simply generates circle sectors that are sized according to predefined weights. The Voronoi tesselation is based on functions from Paul Murrell (2012) <https://www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~paul/Reports/VoronoiTreemap/voronoiTreeMap.html>.

This package implements various win ratio methodologies for composite endpoints of death and non-fatal events, including the (stratified) proportional win-fractions (PW) regression models (Mao and Wang, 2020 <doi:10.1111/biom.13382>), (stratified) two-sample tests with possibly recurrent nonfatal event, and sample size calculation for standard win ratio test (Mao et al., 2021 <doi:10.1111/biom.13501>).

Converts pathways from WikiPathways GPML format or KEGG KGML format into igraph objects. Includes tools to find all cycles in the resulting graphs and determine which ones involve negative feedback (inhibition).

This package implements a permutation test method for the weighted quantile sum (WQS) regression, building off the gWQS package (Renzetti et al. <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=gWQS>). Weighted quantile sum regression is a statistical technique to evaluate the effect of complex exposure mixtures on an outcome (Carrico et al. 2015 <doi:10.1007/s13253-014-0180-3>). The model features a statistical power and Type I error (i.e., false positive) rate trade-off, as there is a machine learning step to determine the weights that optimize the linear model fit. This package provides an alternative method based on a permutation test that should reliably allow for both high power and low false positive rate when utilizing WQS regression (Day et al. 2022 <doi:10.1289/EHP10570>).

Wavelet analysis and reconstruction of time series, cross-wavelets and phase-difference (with filtering options), significance with simulation algorithms.

Entropy weighted k-means (ewkm) by Liping Jing, Michael K. Ng and Joshua Zhexue Huang (2007) <doi:10.1109/TKDE.2007.1048> is a weighted subspace clustering algorithm that is well suited to very high dimensional data. Weights are calculated as the importance of a variable with regard to cluster membership. The two-level variable weighting clustering algorithm tw-k-means (twkm) by Xiaojun Chen, Xiaofei Xu, Joshua Zhexue Huang and Yunming Ye (2013) <doi:10.1109/TKDE.2011.262> introduces two types of weights, the weights on individual variables and the weights on variable groups, and they are calculated during the clustering process. The feature group weighted k-means (fgkm) by Xiaojun Chen, Yunminng Ye, Xiaofei Xu and Joshua Zhexue Huang (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.patcog.2011.06.004> extends this concept by grouping features and weighting the group in addition to weighting individual features.

The employment of the Wavelet decomposition technique proves to be highly advantageous in the modelling of noisy time series data. Wavelet decomposition technique using the "haar" algorithm has been incorporated to formulate a hybrid Wavelet KNN (K-Nearest Neighbour) model for time series forecasting, as proposed by Anjoy and Paul (2017) <DOI:10.1007/s00521-017-3289-9>.

K-means clustering, hierarchical clustering, and PCA with observational weights and/or variable weights. It also includes the corresponding functions for data nuggets which serve as representative samples of large datasets. Cherasia et al., (2022) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-22687-8_20>. Amaratunga et al., (2009) <doi:10.1002/9780470317129>.

Obtain the native stack trace and fuse it with R's stack trace for easier debugging of R packages with native code.

Supports systematic scrutiny, modification, and integration of data. The function status() counts rows that have missing values in grouping columns (returned by na() ), have non-unique combinations of grouping columns (returned by dup() ), and that are not locally sorted (returned by unsorted() ). Functions enumerate() and itemize() give sorted unique combinations of columns, with or without occurrence counts, respectively. Function ignore() drops columns in x that are present in y, and informative() drops columns in x that are entirely NA; constant() returns values that are constant, given a key. Data that have defined unique combinations of grouping values behave more predictably during merge operations.

This package provides functions to create factor variables with contrasts based on weighted effect coding, and their interactions. In weighted effect coding the estimates from a first order regression model show the deviations per group from the sample mean. This is especially useful when a researcher has no directional hypotheses and uses a sample from a population in which the number of observation per group is different.

Weather indices represent the overall weekly effect of a weather variable on crop yield throughout the cropping season. This package contains functions that can convert the weekly weather data into yearly weighted Weather indices with weights being the correlation coefficient between weekly weather data over the years and crop yield over the years. This can be done for an individual weather variable and for two weather variables at a time as the interaction effect. This method was first devised by Jain, RC, Agrawal R, and Jha, MP (1980), "Effect of climatic variables on rice yield and its forecast",MAUSAM, 31(4), 591â 596, <doi:10.54302/mausam.v31i4.3477>. Later, the method have been used by various researchers and the latest can found in Gupta, AK, Sarkar, KA, Dhakre, DS, & Bhattacharya, D (2022), "Weather Based Potato Yield Modelling using Statistical and Machine Learning Technique",Environment and Ecology, 40(3B), 1444â 1449,<https://www.environmentandecology.com/volume-40-2022>.

This dataset was collected using a new four-arm within-study comparison design. The study aimed to examine the impact of a mathematics training intervention and a vocabulary study session on post-test scores in mathematics and vocabulary, respectively. The innovative four-arm within-study comparison design facilitates both experimental and quasi-experimental identification of average causal effects.

This package provides tools for a wavelet-based approach to analyzing spatial synchrony, principally in ecological data. Some tools will be useful for studying community synchrony. See, for instance, Sheppard et al (2016) <doi: 10.1038/NCLIMATE2991>, Sheppard et al (2017) <doi: 10.1051/epjnbp/2017000>, Sheppard et al (2019) <doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1006744>.

Heuristic methods to solve the routing problems in a warehouse management. Package includes several heuristics such as the Midpoint, Return, S-Shape and Semi-Optimal Heuristics for designation of the pickerâ s route in order picking. The heuristics aim to provide the acceptable travel distances while considering warehouse layout constraints such as aisles and shelves. It also includes implementation of the COPRAS (COmplex PRoportional ASsessment) method for supporting selection of locations to be visited by the picker in shared storage systems. The package is designed to facilitate more efficient warehouse routing and logistics operations. see: Bartholdi, J. J., Hackman, S. T. (2019). "WAREHOUSE & DISTRIBUTION SCIENCE. Release 0.98.1."
