Procedures for simulating biomes by equilibrium vegetation models, with a special focus on paleoenvironmental applications. Three widely used equilibrium biome models are currently implemented in the package: the Holdridge Life Zone (HLZ) system (Holdridge 1947, <doi:10.1126/science.105.2727.367>), the Köppen-Geiger classification (KGC) system (Köppen 1936, <https://koeppen-geiger.vu-wien.ac.at/pdf/Koppen_1936.pdf>) and the BIOME model (Prentice et al. 1992, <doi:10.2307/2845499>). Three climatic forest-steppe models are also implemented. An approach for estimating monthly time series of relative sunshine duration from temperature and precipitation data (Yin 1999, <doi:10.1007/s007040050111>) is also adapted, allowing process-based biome models to be combined with high-resolution paleoclimate simulation datasets (e.g., CHELSA-TraCE21k v1.0 dataset: <https://chelsa-climate.org/chelsa-trace21k/>).

GEE solver for correlated nominal or ordinal multinomial responses using a local odds ratios parameterization.

Several robust estimators for linear regression and variable selection are provided. Included are Maximum tangent likelihood estimator by Qin, et al., (2017), arXiv preprint <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1708.05439>, least absolute deviance estimator and Huber regression. The penalized version of each of these estimator incorporates L1 penalty function, i.e., LASSO and Adaptive Lasso. They are able to produce consistent estimates for both fixed and high-dimensional settings.

Three main functions about analyzing massive data (missing observations are allowed) considered from multiple layers of categories are demonstrated. Flexible and diverse applications of the function parameters make the data analyses powerful.

Constructs and analyzes optimal row-column designs for mixed-level factorial experiments under square and rectangular field layouts. For square field layouts, the package implements direct common-factor constructions by first forming two component treatment arrays, one for each factor or super-factor, and then combining them through a symbolic cell-wise product following Gopinath, Parsad and Mandal (2018) <doi:10.1080/03610926.2017.1376091>. For rectangular field layouts, the package constructs designs by extracting a balanced principal block from a mixed-level block design, treating it as the principal column, taking the complete treatment set as the principal row, and generating the full row-column design by cyclic modular development. The package also includes repair utilities for improving disconnected or partially connected row-column designs through bounded treatment-swap searches while preserving the row-column layout structure. The package provides diagnostic tools for connectedness, orthogonal factorial structure, balance, estimability, and selected optimality criteria for row-column designs.

It computes arbitrary products moments (mean vector and variance-covariance matrix), for some double truncated (and folded) multivariate distributions. These distributions belong to the family of selection elliptical distributions, which includes well known skewed distributions as the unified skew-t distribution (SUT) and its particular cases as the extended skew-t (EST), skew-t (ST) and the symmetric student-t (T) distribution. Analogous normal cases unified skew-normal (SUN), extended skew-normal (ESN), skew-normal (SN), and symmetric normal (N) are also included. Density, probabilities and random deviates are also offered for these members.

Collection of the state of the art multi-label resampling algorithms. The objective of these algorithms is to achieve balance in multi-label datasets.

This package provides a unified framework for fitting, predicting, and interpreting nonlinear relationships in single-level, multilevel, and longitudinal regression models. Flexible functional forms are supported using natural cubic splines ('splines'), B-splines ('splines'), and GAM smooths ('mgcv'). Supports two-way and nested clustering via lme4', automatic knot selection by AIC or BIC, multilevel R-squared decomposition (Nakagawa-Schielzeth marginal and conditional R-squared with level-specific variance partitioning), a postestimation suite returning first and second derivatives with confidence bands, turning points and inflection regions, and a model comparison workflow contrasting linear, polynomial, and spline fits by AIC, BIC, and likelihood-ratio tests. Cluster heterogeneity in nonlinear effects is supported via random-slope spline terms.

This package provides functions that allow you to create your own color palette from an image, using mathematical algorithms.

Mobile-monitoring or "sensors on a mobile platform", is an increasingly popular approach to measure high-resolution pollution data at the street level. Coupled with location data, spatial visualisation of air-quality parameters helps detect localized areas of high air-pollution, also called hotspots. In this approach, portable sensors are mounted on a vehicle and driven on predetermined routes to collect high frequency data (1 Hz). mmaqshiny is for analysing, visualising and spatial mapping of high-resolution air-quality data collected by specific devices installed on a moving platform. 1 Hz data of PM2.5 (mass concentrations of particulate matter with size less than 2.5 microns), Black carbon mass concentrations (BC), ultra-fine particle number concentrations, carbon dioxide along with GPS coordinates and relative humidity (RH) data collected by popular portable instruments (TSI DustTrak-8530, Aethlabs microAeth-AE51, TSI CPC3007, LICOR Li-830, Garmin GPSMAP 64s, Omega USB RH probe respectively). It incorporates device specific cleaning and correction algorithms. RH correction is applied to DustTrak PM2.5 following the Chakrabarti et al., (2004) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2004.03.007>. Provision is given to add linear regression coefficients for correcting the PM2.5 data (if required). BC data will be cleaned for the vibration generated noise, by adopting the statistical procedure as explained in Apte et al., (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2011.05.028>, followed by a loading correction as suggested by Ban-Weiss et al., (2009) <doi:10.1021/es8021039>. For the number concentration data, provision is given for dilution correction factor (if a diluter is used with CPC3007; default value is 1). The package joins the raw, cleaned and corrected data from the above said instruments and outputs as a downloadable csv file.

Offers a general framework of multivariate mixed-effects models for the joint analysis of multiple correlated outcomes with clustered data structures and potential missingness proposed by Wang et al. (2018) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxy022>. The missingness of outcome values may depend on the values themselves (missing not at random and non-ignorable), or may depend on only the covariates (missing at random and ignorable), or both. This package provides functions for two models: 1) mvMISE_b() allows correlated outcome-specific random intercepts with a factor-analytic structure, and 2) mvMISE_e() allows the correlated outcome-specific error terms with a graphical lasso penalty on the error precision matrix. Both functions are motivated by the multivariate data analysis on data with clustered structures from labelling-based quantitative proteomic studies. These models and functions can also be applied to univariate and multivariate analyses of clustered data with balanced or unbalanced design and no missingness.
