Build and run spatially explicit agent-based models using only the R platform. NetLogoR follows the same framework as the NetLogo software (Wilensky (1999) <https://www.netlogo.org>) and is a translation in R of the structure and functions of NetLogo'. NetLogoR provides new R classes to define model agents and functions to implement spatially explicit agent-based models in the R environment. This package allows benefiting of the fast and easy coding phase from the highly developed NetLogo framework, coupled with the versatility, power and massive resources of the R software. Examples of two models from the NetLogo software repository (Ants <https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/models/Ants>) and Wolf-Sheep-Predation (<https://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/models/WolfSheepPredation>), and a third, Butterfly, from Railsback and Grimm (2012) <https://www.railsback-grimm-abm-book.com/>, all written using NetLogoR are available. The NetLogo code of the original version of these models is provided alongside. A programming guide inspired from the NetLogo Programming Guide (<https://docs.netlogo.org/programming.html>) and a dictionary of NetLogo primitives (<https://docs.netlogo.org/dictionary.html>) equivalences are also available. NOTE: To increment time', these functions can use a for loop or can be integrated with a discrete event simulator, such as SpaDES (<https://cran.r-project.org/package=SpaDES>).

Implementation of discriminant analysis with network structures in predictors accommodated to do classification and prediction.

The robustness of many of the statistical techniques, such as factor analysis, applied in the social sciences rests upon the assumption of item-level normality. However, when dealing with real data, these assumptions are often not met. The Box-Cox transformation (Box & Cox, 1964) <http://www.jstor.org/stable/2984418> provides an optimal transformation for non-normal variables. Yet, for large datasets of continuous variables, its application in current software programs is cumbersome with analysts having to take several steps to normalise each variable. We present an R package normalr that enables researchers to make convenient optimal transformations of multiple variables in datasets. This R package enables users to quickly and accurately: (1) anchor all of their variables at 1.00, (2) select the desired precision with which the optimal lambda is estimated, (3) apply each unique exponent to its variable, (4) rescale resultant values to within their original X1 and X(n) ranges, and (5) provide original and transformed estimates of skewness, kurtosis, and other inferential assessments of normality.

This package provides a software package to perform Wombling, or boundary analysis, using the nimble Bayesian hierarchical modeling environment. Wombling is used widely to track regions of rapid change within the spatial reference domain. Specific functions in the package implement Gaussian process models for point-referenced spatial data followed by predictive inference on rates of change over curves using line integrals. We demonstrate model based Bayesian inference using posterior distributions featuring simple analytic forms while offering uncertainty quantification over curves. For more details on wombling please see, Banerjee and Gelfand (2006) <doi:10.1198/016214506000000041> and Halder, Banerjee and Dey (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2023.2177166>.

Calculation and presentation of decision-invariant bias adjustment thresholds and intervals for Network Meta-Analysis, as described by Phillippo et al. (2018) <doi:10.1111/rssa.12341>. These describe the smallest changes to the data that would result in a change of decision.

This package provides a novel integral estimator for estimating the causal effects with continuous treatments (or dose-response curves) and a localized derivative estimator for estimating the derivative effects. The inference on the dose-response curve and its derivative is conducted via nonparametric bootstrap. The reference paper is Zhang, Chen, and Giessing (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2405.09003>.

An estimation procedure for the analysis of nonparametric proportional hazards model (e.g. h(t) = h0(t)exp(b(t)'Z)), providing estimation of b(t) and its pointwise standard errors, and semiparametric proportional hazards model (e.g. h(t) = h0(t)exp(b(t)'Z1 + c*Z2)), providing estimation of b(t), c and their standard errors. More details can be found in Lu Tian et al. (2005) <doi:10.1198/016214504000000845>.

This package provides functions for classifying sparseness in 2 x 2 categorical data where one or more cells have zero counts. The classification uses three widely applied summary measures: Risk Difference (RD), Relative Risk (RR), and Odds Ratio (OR). Helps in selecting suitable continuity corrections for zero cells in multi-centre or meta-analysis studies. Also supports sensitivity analysis and can detect phenomena such as Simpson's paradox. The methodology is based on Subbiah and Srinivasan (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2008.06.023>.

This package provides functions for normalizing psychometric test scores. The normalization aims at correcting the metrological properties of the psychometric tests such as the ceiling and floor effects and the curvilinearity (unequal interval scaling). Functions to compute and plot predictions in the natural scale of the psychometric test from the estimates of a linear mixed model estimated on the normalized scores are also provided. See Philipps et al (2014) <doi:10.1159/000365637> for details.

Collection of example animal sounds for bioacoustic analysis.

This package implements methods in Mathur and VanderWeele (in preparation) to characterize global evidence strength across W correlated ordinary least squares (OLS) hypothesis tests. Specifically, uses resampling to estimate a null interval for the total number of rejections in, for example, 95% of samples generated with no associations (the global null), the excess hits (the difference between the observed number of rejections and the upper limit of the null interval), and a test of the global null based on the number of rejections.

This package provides a finite-population significance test of the sharp causal null hypothesis that treatment exposure X has no effect on final outcome Y, within the principal stratum of Compliers. A generalized likelihood ratio test statistic is used, and the resulting p-value is exact. Currently, it is assumed that there are only Compliers and Never Takers in the population.

Neighbour-balanced designs ensure that no treatment is disadvantaged unfairly by its surroundings. The treatment allocation in these designs is such that every treatment appears equally often as a neighbour with every other treatment. Neighbour Balanced Designs are employed when there is a possibility of neighbour effects from treatments used in adjacent experimental units. In the literature, a vast number of such designs have been developed. This package generates some efficient neighbour balanced block designs which are balanced and partially variance balanced for estimating the contrast pertaining to direct and neighbour effects, as well as provides a function for analysing the data obtained from such trials (Azais, J.M., Bailey, R.A. and Monod, H. (1993). "A catalogue of efficient neighbour designs with border plots". Biometrics, 49, 1252-1261 ; Tomar, J. S., Jaggi, Seema and Varghese, Cini (2005)<DOI: 10.1080/0266476042000305177>. "On totally balanced block designs for competition effects"). This package contains functions named nbbd1(),nbbd2(),nbbd3(),pnbbd1() and pnbbd2() which generates neighbour balanced block designs within a specified range of number of treatment (v). It contains another function named anlys()for performing the analysis of data generated from such trials.

Fit and compare nonlinear mixed-effects models in differential equations with flexible dosing information commonly seen in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics (Almquist, Leander, and Jirstrand 2015 <doi:10.1007/s10928-015-9409-1>). Differential equation solving is by compiled C code provided in the rxode2 package (Wang, Hallow, and James 2015 <doi:10.1002/psp4.12052>).

Closed testing has been proved powerful for true discovery guarantee. The computation of closed testing is, however, quite burdensome. A general way to reduce computational complexity is to combine partial closed testings for some prespecified feature sets of interest. Partial closed testings are performed at Bonferroni-corrected alpha level to guarantee the lower bounds for the number of true discoveries in prespecified sets are simultaneously valid. For any post hoc chosen sets of interest, coherence property is used to get the lower bound. In this package, we implement closed testing with globaltest to calculate the lower bound for number of true discoveries, see Ningning Xu et.al (2021) <arXiv:2001.01541> for detailed description.
