Computes solutions for linear and logistic regression models with potentially high-dimensional categorical predictors. This is done by applying a nonconvex penalty (SCOPE) and computing solutions in an efficient path-wise fashion. The scaling of the solution paths is selected automatically. Includes functionality for selecting tuning parameter lambda by k-fold cross-validation and early termination based on information criteria. Solutions are computed by cyclical block-coordinate descent, iterating an innovative dynamic programming algorithm to compute exact solutions for each block.

Compare double-precision floating point vectors using relative differences. All equality operations are calculated using cpp11'.

Copula-based regression models for multivariate censored data, including bivariate right-censored data, bivariate interval-censored data, and right/interval-censored semi-competing risks data. Currently supports Clayton, Gumbel, Frank, Joe, AMH and Copula2 copula models. For marginal models, it supports parametric (Weibull, Loglogistic, Gompertz) and semiparametric (Cox and transformation) models. Includes methods for convenient prediction and plotting. Also provides a bivariate time-to-event simulation function and an information ratio-based goodness-of-fit test for copula. Method details can be found in Sun et.al (2019) Lifetime Data Analysis, Sun et.al (2021) Biostatistics, Sun et.al (2022) Statistical Methods in Medical Research, Sun et.al (2022) Biometrics, and Sun et al.

Various cladogenesis-related calculations that are slow in pure R are implemented in C++ with Rcpp. These include the calculation of the probability of various scenarios for the inheritance of geographic range at the divergence events on a phylogenetic tree, and other calculations necessary for models which are not continuous-time markov chains (CTMC), but where change instead occurs instantaneously at speciation events. Typically these models must assess the probability of every possible combination of (ancestor state, left descendent state, right descendent state). This means that there are up to (# of states)^3 combinations to investigate, and in biogeographical models, there can easily be hundreds of states, so calculation time becomes an issue. C++ implementation plus clever tricks (many combinations can be eliminated a priori) can greatly speed the computation time over naive R implementations.

This package provides a tool for exploring correlations. It makes it possible to easily perform routine tasks when exploring correlation matrices such as ignoring the diagonal, focusing on the correlations of certain variables against others, or rearranging and visualizing the matrix in terms of the strength of the correlations.

Given a collection of intervals with integer start and end positions, find recurrently targeted regions and estimate the significance of finding. Randomization is implemented by parallel methods, either using local host machines, or submitting grid engine jobs.

An interface for creating, registering, and resolving content-based identifiers for data management. Content-based identifiers rely on the cryptographic hashes to refer to the files they identify, thus, anyone possessing the file can compute the identifier using a well-known standard algorithm, such as SHA256'. By registering a URL at which the content is accessible to a public archive (such as Hash Archive) or depositing data in a scientific repository such Zenodo', DataONE or SoftwareHeritage', the content identifier can serve many functions typically associated with A Digital Object Identifier ('DOI'). Unlike location-based identifiers like DOIs', content-based identifiers permit the same content to be registered in many locations.

This package provides a class of methods that combine dimension reduction and clustering of continuous, categorical or mixed-type data (Markos, Iodice D'Enza and van de Velden 2019; <DOI:10.18637/jss.v091.i10>). For continuous data, the package contains implementations of factorial K-means (Vichi and Kiers 2001; <DOI:10.1016/S0167-9473(00)00064-5>) and reduced K-means (De Soete and Carroll 1994; <DOI:10.1007/978-3-642-51175-2_24>); both methods that combine principal component analysis with K-means clustering. For categorical data, the package provides MCA K-means (Hwang, Dillon and Takane 2006; <DOI:10.1007/s11336-004-1173-x>), i-FCB (Iodice D'Enza and Palumbo 2013, <DOI:10.1007/s00180-012-0329-x>) and Cluster Correspondence Analysis (van de Velden, Iodice D'Enza and Palumbo 2017; <DOI:10.1007/s11336-016-9514-0>), which combine multiple correspondence analysis with K-means. For mixed-type data, it provides mixed Reduced K-means and mixed Factorial K-means (van de Velden, Iodice D'Enza and Markos 2019; <DOI:10.1002/wics.1456>), which combine PCA for mixed-type data with K-means.

Offers native support for ALTREP objects, UTF-8 string handling, modern C++11 features and idioms, and reduced memory requirements. Allows for vendoring, making it useful for restricted environments. Compared to cpp11', it adds support for converting C++ maps to R lists, Roxygen documentation directly in C++ code, proper handling of matrix attributes, support for nullable external pointers, bidirectional copy of complex number types, flexibility in type conversions, use of nullable pointers, and various performance optimizations.

This package provides a simulation model and accompanying functions that support assessing silvicultural concepts on the forest estate level with a focus on the CO2 uptake by wood growth and CO2 emissions by forest operations. For achieving this, a virtual forest estate area is split into the areas covered by typical phases of the silvicultural concept of interest. Given initial area shares of these phases, the dynamics of these areas is simulated. The typical carbon stocks and flows which are known for all phases are attributed post-hoc to the areas and upscaled to the estate level. CO2 emissions by forest operations are estimated based on the amounts and dimensions of the harvested timber. Probabilities of damage events are taken into account.

In the context of high-throughput genetic data, CoDaCoRe identifies a set of sparse biomarkers that are predictive of a response variable of interest (Gordon-Rodriguez et al., 2021) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btab645>. More generally, CoDaCoRe can be applied to any regression problem where the independent variable is Compositional (CoDa), to derive a set of scale-invariant log-ratios (ILR or SLR) that are maximally associated to a dependent variable.

Takes the outputs of a caret confusion matrix and allows for the quick conversion of these list items to lists. The intended usage is to allow the tool to work with the outputs of machine learning classification models. This tool works with classification problems for binary and multi-classification problems and allows for the record level conversion of the confusion matrix outputs. This is useful, as it allows quick conversion of these objects for storage in database systems and to track ML model performance over time. Traditionally, this approach has been used for highlighting model representation and feature slippage.

This package implements a specific form of segmented linear regression with two independent variables. The visualization of that function looks like a quarter segment of a cowbell giving the package its name. The package has been specifically constructed for the case where minimum and maximum value of the dependent and two independent variables are known a prior, which is usually the case when those values are derived from Likert scales.

This package provides tools that allow developers to write functions for cross-validation with minimal programming effort and assist users with model selection.

This package implements a class of univariate and multivariate spatial generalised linear mixed models for areal unit data, with inference in a Bayesian setting using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulation using a single or multiple Markov chains. The response variable can be binomial, Gaussian, multinomial, Poisson or zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP), and spatial autocorrelation is modelled by a set of random effects that are assigned a conditional autoregressive (CAR) prior distribution. A number of different models are available for univariate spatial data, including models with no random effects as well as random effects modelled by different types of CAR prior, including the BYM model (Besag et al., 1991, <doi:10.1007/BF00116466>) and Leroux model (Leroux et al., 2000, <doi:10.1007/978-1-4612-1284-3_4>). Additionally, a multivariate CAR (MCAR) model for multivariate spatial data is available, as is a two-level hierarchical model for modelling data relating to individuals within areas. Full details are given in the vignette accompanying this package. The initial creation of this package was supported by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) grant RES-000-22-4256, and on-going development has been supported by the Engineering and Physical Science Research Council (EPSRC) grant EP/J017442/1, ESRC grant ES/K006460/1, Innovate UK / Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) grant NE/N007352/1 and the TB Alliance.

This package performs cryptographic randomness tests on a sequence of random integers or bits. Included tests are greatest common divisor, birthday spacings, book stack, adaptive chi-square, topological binary, and three random walk tests (Ryabko and Monarev, 2005) <doi:10.1016/j.jspi.2004.02.010>. Tests except greatest common divisor and birthday spacings are not covered by standard test suites. In addition to the chi-square goodness-of-fit test, results of Anderson-Darling, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, and Jarque-Bera tests are also generated by some of the cryptographic randomness tests.

This calculates a variety of different CIs for proportions and difference of proportions that are commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry including Wald, Wilson, Clopper-Pearson, Agresti-Coull and Jeffreys for proportions. And Miettinen-Nurminen (1985) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780040211>, Wald, Haldane, and Mee <https://www.lexjansen.com/wuss/2016/127_Final_Paper_PDF.pdf> for difference in proportions.

With this package you can run ConMET locally in R. ConMET is an R-shiny application that facilitates performing and evaluating confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) and is useful for running and reporting typical measurement models in applied psychology and management journals. ConMET automatically creates, compares and summarizes CFA models. Most common fit indices (E.g., CFI and SRMR) are put in an overview table. ConMET also allows to test for common method variance. The application is particularly useful for teaching and instruction of measurement issues in survey research. The application uses the lavaan package (Rosseel, 2012) to run CFAs.

Calculation of various common and less common comfort indices such as predicted mean vote or the two node model. Converts physical variables such as relative to absolute humidity and evaluates the performance of comfort indices.

Fits convolution-based nonstationary Gaussian process models to point-referenced spatial data. The nonstationary covariance function allows the user to specify the underlying correlation structure and which spatial dependence parameters should be allowed to vary over space: the anisotropy, nugget variance, and process variance. The parameters are estimated via maximum likelihood, using a local likelihood approach. Also provided are functions to fit stationary spatial models for comparison, calculate the Kriging predictor and standard errors, and create various plots to visualize nonstationarity.
