Calculates autoecological data (optima and tolerance ranges) of a biological species given an environmental matrix. The package calculates by weighted averaging, using the number of occurrences to adjust the tolerance assigned to each taxon to estimate optima and tolerance range in cases where taxa have unequal occurrences. See the detailed methodology by Birks et al. (1990) <doi:10.1098/rstb.1990.0062>, and a case example by Potapova and Charles (2003) <doi:10.1046/j.1365-2427.2003.01080.x>.

Access and Analyze Official Development Assistance (ODA) data using the OECD API <https://gitlab.algobank.oecd.org/public-documentation/dotstat-migration/-/raw/main/OECD_Data_API_documentation.pdf>. ODA data includes sovereign-level aid data such as key aggregates (DAC1), geographical distributions (DAC2A), project-level data (CRS), and multilateral contributions (Multisystem).

The oblique decision tree (ODT) uses linear combinations of predictors as partitioning variables in a decision tree. Oblique Decision Random Forest (ODRF) is an ensemble of multiple ODTs generated by feature bagging. Oblique Decision Boosting Tree (ODBT) applies feature bagging during the training process of ODT-based boosting trees to ensemble multiple boosting trees. All three methods can be used for classification and regression, and ODT and ODRF serve as supplements to the classical CART of Breiman (1984) <DOI:10.1201/9781315139470> and Random Forest of Breiman (2001) <DOI:10.1023/A:1010933404324> respectively.

Search and extract data from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).

This package provides a framework for fitting adaptive forecasting models. Provides a way to use forecasts as input to models, e.g. weather forecasts for energy related forecasting. The models can be fitted recursively and can easily be setup for updating parameters when new data arrives. See the included vignettes, the website <https://onlineforecasting.org> and the paper "onlineforecast: An R package for adaptive and recursive forecasting" <https://journal.r-project.org/articles/RJ-2023-031/>.

Provide methods for estimating optimal treatment regimes in survival contexts with Kaplan-Meier-like estimators when no unmeasured confounding assumption is satisfied (Jiang, R., Lu, W., Song, R., and Davidian, M. (2017) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12201>) and when no unmeasured confounding assumption fails to hold and a binary instrument is available (Xia, J., Zhan, Z., Zhang, J. (2022) <arXiv:2210.05538>).

This package provides a wrapper for optim for nonlinear regression problems; see Nocedal J and Write S (2006, ISBN: 978-0387-30303-1). Performs ordinary least squares (OLS), iterative re-weighted least squares (IRWLS), and maximum likelihood (MLE). Also includes the robust outlier detection (ROUT) algorithm; see Motulsky, H and Brown, R (2006) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-7-123>.

This package provides a first implementation of automated parsing of user stories, when used to defined functional requirements for operational research mathematical models. It allows reading user stories, splitting them on the who-what-why template, and classifying them according to the parts of the mathematical model that they represent. Also provides semantic grouping of stories, for project management purposes.

This package provides functions for extracting text and tables from PDF-based order documents. It provides an n-gram-based approach for identifying the language of an order document. It furthermore uses R-package pdftools to extract the text from an order document. In the case that the PDF document is only including an image (because it is scanned document), R package tesseract is used for OCR. Furthermore, the package provides functionality for identifying and extracting order position tables in order documents based on a clustering approach.

Download and import of OpenStreetMap ('OSM') data as sf or sp objects. OSM data are extracted from the Overpass web server (<https://overpass-api.de/>) and processed with very fast C++ routines for return to R'.

The supplied code allows for the generation of discrete time series of oscillating species. General shapes can be selected by means of individual functions, which are widely customizable by means of function arguments. All code was developed in the Biological Information Processing Group at the BioQuant Center at Heidelberg University, Germany.

Design and analysis of confirmatory adaptive clinical trials using the optimal conditional error framework according to Brannath and Bauer (2004) <doi:10.1111/j.0006-341X.2004.00221.x>. An extension to the optimal conditional error function using interim estimates as described in Brannath and Dreher (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2402.00814> and functions to ensure that the resulting conditional error function is non-increasing are also available.

OD-means is a hierarchical adaptive k-means algorithm based on origin-destination pairs. In the first layer of the hierarchy, the clusters are separated automatically based on the variation of the within-cluster distance of each cluster until convergence. The second layer of the hierarchy corresponds to the sub clustering process of small clusters based on the distance between the origin and destination of each cluster.

This package provides carefully chosen color palettes as used a.o. at OpenAnalytics <http://www.openanalytics.eu>.

Solves linear systems of form Ax=b via Gauss elimination, LU decomposition, Gauss-Seidel, Conjugate Gradient Method (CGM) and Cholesky methods.

Solves penalized least squares problems for big tall data using the orthogonalizing EM algorithm of Xiong et al. (2016) <doi:10.1080/00401706.2015.1054436>. The main fitting function is oem() and the functions cv.oem() and xval.oem() are for cross validation, the latter being an accelerated cross validation function for linear models. The big.oem() function allows for out of memory fitting. A description of the underlying methods and code interface is described in Huling and Chien (2022) <doi:10.18637/jss.v104.i06>.

Aids in the analysis of genes influencing cancer survival by including a principal function, calculator(), which calculates the P-value for each provided gene under the optimal cutoff in cancer survival studies. Grounded in methodologies from significant works, this package references Therneau's survival package (Therneau, 2024; <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=survival>) and the survival analysis extensions by Therneau and Grambsch (2000, ISBN 0-387-98784-3). It also integrates the survminer package by Kassambara et al. (2021; <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=survminer>), enhancing survival curve visualizations with ggplot2'.

Automated reporting in Word and PowerPoint can require customization for each organizational template. This package works around this by adding standard reporting functions and an abstraction layer to facilitate automated reporting workflows that can be replicated across different organizational templates.

Distributed reproducible computing framework, adopting ideas from git, docker and other software. By defining a lightweight interface around the inputs and outputs of an analysis, a lot of the repetitive work for reproducible research can be automated. We define a simple format for organising and describing work that facilitates collaborative reproducible research and acknowledges that all analyses are run multiple times over their lifespans.
