Given a dataset, the user is invited to utilize the Empirical Cumulative Distribution Function (ECDF) to guess interactively the mean and the mean deviation. Thereafter, using the quadratic curve the user can guess the Root Mean Squared Deviation (RMSD) and visualize the standard deviation (SD). For details, see Sarkar and Rashid (2019)<doi:10.3126/njs.v3i0.25574>, Have You Seen the Standard Deviaton?, Nepalese Journal of Statistics, Vol. 3, 1-10.
Leveraging (large) language models for automatic topic labeling. The main function converts a list of top terms into a label for each topic. Hence, it is complementary to any topic modeling package that produces a list of top terms for each topic. While human judgement is indispensable for topic validation (i.e., inspecting top terms and most representative documents), automatic topic labeling can be a valuable tool for researchers in various scenarios.
It performs the smoothing approach provided by penalized least squares for univariate and bivariate time series, as proposed by Guerrero (2007) and Gerrero et al. (2017). This allows to estimate the time series trend by controlling the amount of resulting (joint) smoothness. --- Guerrero, V.M (2007) <DOI:10.1016/j.spl.2007.03.006>.

This package provides a set of distributions which can be used for modelling the response variables in Generalized Additive Models for Location Scale and Shape. The distributions can be continuous, discrete or mixed distributions. Extra distributions can be created, by transforming, any continuous distribution defined on the real line, to a distribution defined on ranges 0 to infinity or 0 to 1, by using a log or a logit transformation, respectively.
Pairwise Hamming distances are computed between the rows of a binary (0/1) matrix using highly optimized C code. The input is an integer matrix where each row represents a binary feature vector and returns a symmetric integer matrix of pairwise distances. Internally, rows are bit-packed into 64-bit words for fast XOR-based comparisons, with hardware-accelerated popcount operations to count differences. OpenMP parallelization ensures efficient performance for large matrices.
Using hybrid data, this package created a vividly colored hybrid heat map. The input is two files which are auto-selected. The first file has three columns, the first two for pairs of species, with the third column for the hybrid experiment code (an integer). The second file is a list of code and their descriptions in two columns. The output is a figure showing the hybrid heat map with a color legend.

Convert fitted objects from various R mixed-model packages into tidy data frames along the lines of the broom package. The package provides three S3 generics for each model: tidy(), which summarizes a model's statistical findings such as coefficients of a regression; augment(), which adds columns to the original data such as predictions, residuals and cluster assignments; and glance(), which provides a one-row summary of model-level statistics.
This package provides functions to calculate the minimum required sample size for surveys and studies using Cochran's formula, including the finite population correction. Cochran's formula is a standard method in survey methodology for determining sample size based on a desired margin of error, confidence level, and (optionally) known population size. All parameters (margin of error, confidence level, and expected proportion) are fully adjustable by the user rather than fixed to any convention.
This package provides functions for age standardisation of epidemiological measures such as incidence and prevalence rates. It allows users to apply standard population structures to observed age-specific estimates in order to obtain comparable summary measures across populations or time periods. Functions support calculation of standardised rates, outcome counts, and corresponding confidence intervals. The tools are designed to facilitate reproducible and transparent adjustment for differences in age distributions in epidemiological and public health research.
This package provides dictionary-based tools for recoding free-text gender responses into consistent categories while preserving gender diversity where possible.

Estimating causal parameters in the presence of treatment spillover is of great interest in statistics. This package provides tools for instrumental variables estimation of average causal effects under network interference of unknown form. The target parameters are the local average direct effect, the local average indirect effect, the local average overall effect, and the local average spillover effect. The methods are developed by Hoshino and Yanagi (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2108.07455>.
Evaluate hypotheses concerning the distribution of multinomial proportions using bridge sampling. The bridge sampling routine is able to compute Bayes factors for hypotheses that entail inequality constraints, equality constraints, free parameters, and mixtures of all three. These hypotheses are tested against the encompassing hypothesis, that all parameters vary freely or against the null hypothesis that all category proportions are equal. For more information see Sarafoglou et al. (2020) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/bux7p>.
The temporal relationship between motor neurons can offer explanations for neural strategies. We combined functions to reduce neuron action potential discharge data and analyze it for short-term, time-domain synchronization. Even more so, motoRneuron combines most available methods for the determining cross correlation histogram peaks and most available indices for calculating synchronization into simple functions. See Nordstrom, Fuglevand, and Enoka (1992) <doi:10.1113/jphysiol.1992.sp019244> for a more thorough introduction.
