Analyzes group patterns using discourse analysis data with graph theory mathematics. Takes the order of which individuals talk and converts it to a network edge and weight list. Returns the density, centrality, centralization, and subgroup information for each group. Based on the analytical framework laid out in Chai et al. (2019) <doi:10.1187/cbe.18-11-0222>.
Open, read data from and modify Data Packages. Data Packages are an open standard for bundling and describing data sets (<https://datapackage.org>). When data is read from a Data Package care is taken to convert the data as much a possible to R appropriate data types. The package can be extended with plugins for additional data types.
Four fertility models are fitted using non-linear least squares. These are the Hadwiger, the Gamma, the Model1 and Model2, following the terminology of the following paper: Peristera P. and Kostaki A. (2007). "Modeling fertility in modern populations". Demographic Research, 16(6): 141--194. <doi:10.4054/DemRes.2007.16.6>
. Model based averaging is also supported.

Electricity is not made equal and it vary in its carbon footprint (or carbon intensity) depending on its source. This package enables to access and query data provided by the Carbon Intensity API (<https://carbonintensity.org.uk/>). National Gridâ s Carbon Intensity API provides an indicative trend of regional carbon intensity of the electricity system in Great Britain.
Here we provide an implementation of the linear and logistic regression-based Reliable Change Index (RCI), to be used with lm and binomial glm model objects, respectively, following Moral et al. <https://psyarxiv.com/gq7az/>. The RCI function returns a score assumed to be approximately normally distributed, which is helpful to detect patients that may present cognitive decline.
Understanding the dynamics of potentially heterogeneous variables is important in statistical applications. This package provides tools for estimating the degree of heterogeneity across cross-sectional units in the panel data analysis. The methods are developed by Okui and Yanagi (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2019.04.036> and Okui and Yanagi (2020) <doi:10.1093/ectj/utz019>.
Makes the time series prediction easier by automatizing this process using four main functions: prep()
, modl()
, pred()
and postp()
. Features different preprocessing methods to homogenize variance and to remove trend and seasonality. Also has the potential to bring together different predictive models to make comparatives. Features ARIMA and Data Mining Regression models (using caret).
Routines in qtl2 to study allele patterns in quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping over a chromosome. Useful in crosses with more than two alleles to identify how sets of alleles, genetically different strands at the same locus, have different response levels. Plots show profiles over a chromosome. Can handle multiple traits together. See <https://github.com/byandell/qtl2pattern>.
This package provides basic functions that support an implementation of (discrete) choice experiments (CEs). CEs is a question-based survey method measuring people's preferences for goods/services and their characteristics. Refer to Louviere et al. (2000) <doi:10.1017/CBO9780511753831> for details on CEs, and Aizaki (2012) <doi:10.18637/jss.v050.c02> for the package.
Easily integrate and control Lottie animations within shiny applications', without the need for idiosyncratic expression or use of JavaScript
'. This includes utilities for generating animation instances, controlling playback, manipulating animation properties, and more. For more information on Lottie', see: <https://airbnb.io/lottie/#/>. Additionally, see the official Lottie GitHub
repository at <https://github.com/airbnb/lottie>.
Shinohara (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.nicl.2014.08.008> introduced WhiteStripe
', an intensity-based normalization of T1 and T2 images, where normal appearing white matter performs well, but requires segmentation. This method performs white matter mean and standard deviation estimates on data that has been rigidly-registered to the MNI template and uses histogram-based methods.
Detection of biases in the usage of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes is an important task in immune repertoire profiling. IgGeneUsage
detects aberrant Ig gene usage between biological conditions using a probabilistic model which is analyzed computationally by Bayes inference. With this IgGeneUsage
also avoids some common problems related to the current practice of null-hypothesis significance testing.
Method for segmentation of spatial domains and spatially-aware clustering in spatial transcriptomics data. The method generates spatial domains with smooth boundaries by smoothing gene expression profiles across neighboring spatial locations, followed by unsupervised clustering. Spatial domains consisting of consistent mixtures of cell types may then be further investigated by applying cell type compositional analyses or differential analyses.
Suppose we have data that has so many series that it is hard to identify them by their colors as the differences are so subtle. With gghighlight we can highlight those lines that match certain criteria. The result is a usual ggplot
object, so it is fully customizable and can be used with custom themes and facets.
This package performs angle-based outlier detection on a given data frame. It offers three methods to process data:
full but slow implementation using all the data that has cubic complexity;
a fully randomized method;
a method using k-nearest neighbours.
These algorithms are well suited for high dimensional data outlier detection.
Allows for painless use of the Metopio health atlas APIs <https://metopio.com/health-atlas> to explore and import data. Metopio health atlases store open public health data. See what topics (or indicators) are available among specific populations, periods, and geographic layers. Download relevant data along with geographic boundaries or point datasets. Spatial datasets are returned as sf objects.
Summarizes characteristics of linear mixed effects models without data or a fitted model by converting code for fitting lmer()
from lme4 and lme()
from nlme into tables, equations, and visuals. Outputs can be used to learn how to fit linear mixed effects models in R and to communicate about these models in presentations, manuscripts, and analysis plans.
Automatically estimate 11 effect size measures from a well-formatted dataset. Various other functions can help, for example, removing dependency between several effect sizes, or identifying differences between two datasets. This package is mainly designed to assist in conducting a systematic review with a meta-analysis but can be useful to any researcher interested in estimating an effect size.
Computes odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals from a generalized linear model object. It also computes model significance with the chi-squared statistic and p-value and it computes model fit using a contingency table to determine the percent of observations for which the model correctly predicts the value of the outcome. Calculates model sensitivity and specificity.
Standardized survey outcome rate functions, including the response rate, contact rate, cooperation rate, and refusal rate. These outcome rates allow survey researchers to measure the quality of survey data using definitions published by the American Association of Public Opinion Research (AAPOR). For details on these standards, see AAPOR (2016) <https://www.aapor.org/Standards-Ethics/Standard-Definitions-(1).aspx>.
Simulate pedigree, genetic merits and phenotypes with random/non-random matings followed by random/non-random selection with different intensities and patterns in males and females. Genotypes can be simulated for a given pedigree, or an appended pedigree to an existing pedigree with genotypes. Mrode, R. A. (2005) <ISBN:9780851989969, 0851989969>; Nilforooshan, M.A. (2022) <doi:10.37496/rbz5120210131>.
This package provides a set of functions to efficiently recognize and clean the continuous dorsal pattern of a female brown anole lizard (Anolis sagrei) traced from ImageJ
', an open platform for scientific image analysis (see <https://imagej.net> for more information), and extract common features such as the pattern sinuosity indices, coefficient of variation, and max-min width.
This is a compilation of my preferred themes and related theme elements for ggplot2'. I believe these themes and theme elements are aesthetically pleasing, both for pedagogical instruction and for the presentation of applied statistical research to a wide audience. These themes imply routine use of easily obtained/free fonts, simple forms of which are included in this package.
