Despite that several tests for normality in stationary processes have been proposed in the literature, consistent implementations of these tests in programming languages are limited. Seven normality test are implemented. The asymptotic Lobato & Velasco's, asymptotic Epps, Psaradakis and Vávra, Lobato & Velasco's and Epps sieve bootstrap approximations, El bouch et al., and the random projections tests for univariate stationary process. Some other diagnostics such as, unit root test for stationarity, seasonal tests for seasonality, and arch effect test for volatility; are also performed. Additionally, the El bouch test performs normality tests for bivariate time series. The package also offers residual diagnostic for linear time series models developed in several packages.

NanoString nCounter data are gene expression assays where there is no need for the use of enzymes or amplification protocols and work with fluorescent barcodes (Geiss et al. (2018) <doi:10.1038/nbt1385>). Each barcode is assigned a messenger-RNA/micro-RNA (mRNA/miRNA) which after bonding with its target can be counted. As a result each count of a specific barcode represents the presence of its target mRNA/miRNA. NACHO (NAnoString quality Control dasHbOard) is able to analyse the exported NanoString nCounter data and facilitates the user in performing a quality control. NACHO does this by visualising quality control metrics, expression of control genes, principal components and sample specific size factors in an interactive web application.

These routines create multiple imputations of missing at random categorical data, and create multiply imputed synthesis of categorical data, with or without structural zeros. Imputations and syntheses are based on Dirichlet process mixtures of multinomial distributions, which is a non-parametric Bayesian modeling approach that allows for flexible joint modeling, described in Manrique-Vallier and Reiter (2014) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2013.844700>.

We connect the multi-class Neyman-Pearson classification (NP) problem to the cost-sensitive learning (CS) problem, and propose two algorithms (NPMC-CX and NPMC-ER) to solve the multi-class NP problem through cost-sensitive learning tools. Under certain conditions, the two algorithms are shown to satisfy multi-class NP properties. More details are available in the paper "Neyman-Pearson Multi-class Classification via Cost-sensitive Learning" (Ye Tian and Yang Feng, 2021).

Clustering unilayer and multilayer network data by means of finite mixtures is the main utility of netClust'.

This permutation based hypothesis test, suited for several types of data supported by the estimateNetwork function of the bootnet package (Epskamp & Fried, 2018), assesses the difference between two networks based on several invariance measures (network structure invariance, global strength invariance, edge invariance, several centrality measures, etc.). Network structures are estimated with l1-regularization. The Network Comparison Test is suited for comparison of independent (e.g., two different groups) and dependent samples (e.g., one group that is measured twice). See van Borkulo et al. (2021), available from <doi:10.1037/met0000476>.

This package provides a Non-Metric Space Library ('NMSLIB <https://github.com/nmslib/nmslib>) wrapper, which according to the authors "is an efficient cross-platform similarity search library and a toolkit for evaluation of similarity search methods. The goal of the NMSLIB <https://github.com/nmslib/nmslib> Library is to create an effective and comprehensive toolkit for searching in generic non-metric spaces. Being comprehensive is important, because no single method is likely to be sufficient in all cases. Also note that exact solutions are hardly efficient in high dimensions and/or non-metric spaces. Hence, the main focus is on approximate methods". The wrapper also includes Approximate Kernel k-Nearest-Neighbor functions based on the NMSLIB <https://github.com/nmslib/nmslib> Python Library.

This package provides customized forest plots for network meta-analysis incorporating direct, indirect, and NMA effects. Includes visualizations of evidence contributions through proportion bars based on the hat matrix and evidence flow decomposition.

Motivated by changing administrative boundaries over time, the nuts package can convert European regional data with NUTS codes between versions (2006, 2010, 2013, 2016 and 2021) and levels (NUTS 1, NUTS 2 and NUTS 3). The package uses spatial interpolation as in Lam (1983) <doi:10.1559/152304083783914958> based on granular (100m x 100m) area, population and land use data provided by the European Commission's Joint Research Center.

This package provides a minimal package for downloading data from GitHub repositories of the nflverse project.

This package performs a Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA). (Dul, J. 2016. Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA). Logic and Methodology of Necessary but not Sufficient causality." Organizational Research Methods 19(1), 10-52) <doi:10.1177/1094428115584005>. NCA identifies necessary (but not sufficient) conditions in datasets, where x causes (e.g. precedes) y. Instead of drawing a regression line through the middle of the data in an xy-plot, NCA draws the ceiling line. The ceiling line y = f(x) separates the area with observations from the area without observations. (Nearly) all observations are below the ceiling line: y <= f(x). The empty zone is in the upper left hand corner of the xy-plot (with the convention that the x-axis is horizontal and the y-axis is vertical and that values increase upwards and to the right''). The ceiling line is a (piecewise) linear non-decreasing line: a linear step function or a straight line. It indicates which level of x (e.g. an effort or input) is necessary but not sufficient for a (desired) level of y (e.g. good performance or output). A quick start guide for using this package can be found here: <https://repub.eur.nl/pub/78323/> or <https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2624981>.

Perform a stratified weighted log-rank test in a randomized controlled trial. Tests can be visualized as a difference in average score on the two treatment arms. These methods are described in Magirr and Burman (2018) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1807.11097>, Magirr (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2007.04767>, and Magirr and Jimenez (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2201.10445>.

NEON observational data are provided via the NEON Data Portal <https://www.neonscience.org> and NEON API, and can be downloaded and reformatted by the neonUtilities package. NEON observational data (human-observed measurements, and analyses derived from human-collected samples, such as tree diameters and algal chemistry) are published in a format consisting of one or more tabular data files. This package provides tools for performing common operations on NEON observational data, including checking for duplicates and joining tables.

Estimates the relative transmission probabilities between cases in an infectious disease outbreak or cluster using naive Bayes. Included are various functions to use these probabilities to estimate transmission parameters such as the generation/serial interval and reproductive number as well as finding the contribution of covariates to the probabilities and visualizing results. The ideal use is for an infectious disease dataset with metadata on the majority of cases but more informative data such as contact tracing or pathogen whole genome sequencing on only a subset of cases. For a detailed description of the methods see Leavitt et al. (2020) <doi:10.1093/ije/dyaa031>.

Implementation of Narrowest Significance Pursuit, a general and flexible methodology for automatically detecting localised regions in data sequences which each must contain a change-point (understood as an abrupt change in the parameters of an underlying linear model), at a prescribed global significance level. Narrowest Significance Pursuit works with a wide range of distributional assumptions on the errors, and yields exact desired finite-sample coverage probabilities, regardless of the form or number of the covariates. For details, see P. Fryzlewicz (2021) <https://stats.lse.ac.uk/fryzlewicz/nsp/nsp.pdf>.
