It provides the density and random number generator for the Scale-Shape Mixtures of Skew-Normal Distributions proposed by Jamalizadeh and Lin (2016) <doi:10.1007/s00180-016-0691-1>.

Simple implementation of Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 ('SemVer') on the vctrs package. This package provides a simple way to create, compare, and manipulate semantic versions in R. It is designed to be lightweight and easy to use.

This package provides tools to help tag and validate data according to user-specified rules. The safeframe class adds variable level attributes to data.frame columns. Once tagged, these variables can be seamlessly used in downstream analyses, making data pipelines clearer, more robust, and more reliable.

Create correlation networks using St. Nicolas House Analysis ('SNHA'). The package can be used for visualizing multivariate data similar to Principal Component Analysis or Multidimensional Scaling using a ranking approach. In contrast to MDS and PCA', SNHA uses a network approach to explore interacting variables. For details see Hermanussen et. al. 2021', <doi:10.3390/ijerph18041741>.

Fits a semiparametric spatiotemporal model for data with mixed frequencies, specifically where the response variable is observed at a lower frequency than some covariates. The estimation uses an iterative backfitting algorithm that combines a non-parametric smoothing spline for high-frequency data, parametric estimation for low-frequency and spatial neighborhood effects, and an autoregressive error structure. Methodology based on Malabanan, Lansangan, and Barrios (2022) <https://scienggj.org/2022/SciEnggJ%202022-vol15-no02-p90-107-Malabanan%20et%20al.pdf>.

Handling of behavioural data from the Ethoscope platform (Geissmann, Garcia Rodriguez, Beckwith, French, Jamasb and Gilestro (2017) <DOI:10.1371/journal.pbio.2003026>). Ethoscopes (<https://giorgiogilestro.notion.site/Ethoscope-User-Manual-a9739373ae9f4840aa45b277f2f0e3a7>) are an open source/open hardware framework made of interconnected raspberry pis (<https://www.raspberrypi.org>) designed to quantify the behaviour of multiple small animals in a distributed and real-time fashion. The default tracking algorithm records primary variables such as xy coordinates, dimensions and speed. This package is part of the rethomics framework <https://rethomics.github.io/>.

Fit, summarize, and predict for a variety of spatial statistical models applied to point-referenced and areal (lattice) data. Parameters are estimated using various methods. Additional modeling features include anisotropy, non-spatial random effects, partition factors, big data approaches, and more. Model-fit statistics are used to summarize, visualize, and compare models. Predictions at unobserved locations are readily obtainable. For additional details, see Dumelle et al. (2023) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0282524>.

Estimates the authors or speakers of texts. Methods developed in Huang, Perry, and Spirling (2020) <doi:10.1017/pan.2019.49>. The model is built on a Bayesian framework in which the distinctiveness of each speaker is defined by how different, on average, the speaker's terms are to everyone else in the corpus of texts. An optional cross-validation method is implemented to select the subset of terms that generate the most accurate speaker predictions. Once a set of terms is selected, the model can be estimated. Speaker distinctiveness and term influence can be recovered from parameters in the model using package functions. Once fitted, the model can be used to predict authorship of new texts.

This is the implementation of the novel structural Bayesian information criterion by Zhou, 2020 (under review). In this method, the prior structure is modeled and incorporated into the Bayesian information criterion framework. Additionally, we also provide the implementation of a two-step algorithm to generate the candidate model pool.

This package provides tools to record, validate, and analyse soil tillage depth and erosion across years and field treatments. Includes functions for year-wise tillage operation summaries, erosion depth tracking, compaction detection, soil loss estimation, and visualisation of temporal changes in tillage and erosion profiles. Methods follow Lal (2001) <doi:10.1201/9780203739280> and Renard et al. (1997) "Predicting Soil Erosion by Water: A Guide to Conservation Planning with the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE)" <https://ntrl.ntis.gov/NTRL/dashboard/searchResults/titleDetail/PB97153704.xhtml>.

This package implements the routines and algorithms developed and analysed in "Multiple Systems Estimation for Sparse Capture Data: Inferential Challenges when there are Non-Overlapping Lists" Chan, L, Silverman, B. W., Vincent, K (2019) <arXiv:1902.05156>. This package explicitly handles situations where there are pairs of lists which have no observed individuals in common. It deals correctly with parameters whose estimated values can be considered as being negative infinity. It also addresses other possible issues of non-existence and non-identifiability of maximum likelihood estimates.

This package provides tools for constructing, auditing, and visualizing temporal social interaction networks from event-log data. Supports graph construction from raw user-to-user interaction logs, longitudinal tracking of network structure, community dynamics, user role trajectories, and concentration of engagement over time. Designed for computational social science, platform analytics, and digital community health monitoring. Includes four longitudinal audit indices: the Network Drift Index ('NDI'), Community Fragmentation Index ('CFI'), Visibility Concentration Index ('VCI'), and Role Mobility Index ('RMI'). NDI', CFI', VCI', and RMI are purpose-built composite scores for longitudinal platform auditing.

Calculating home ranges and movements of animals in complex stream environments is often challenging, and standard home range estimators do not apply. This package provides a series of tools for assessing movements in a stream network, such as calculating the total length of stream used, distances between points, and movement patterns over time. See Vignette for additional details. This package was originally released on GitHub under the name SNM'. SNMA was developed for analyses in McKnight et al. (2025) <doi:10.3354/esr01442> which contains additional examples and information.

Econometric estimation of simultaneous systems of linear and nonlinear equations using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), Weighted Least Squares (WLS), Seemingly Unrelated Regressions (SUR), Two-Stage Least Squares (2SLS), Weighted Two-Stage Least Squares (W2SLS), and Three-Stage Least Squares (3SLS) as suggested, e.g., by Zellner (1962) <doi:10.2307/2281644>, Zellner and Theil (1962) <doi:10.2307/1911287>, and Schmidt (1990) <doi:10.1016/0304-4076(90)90127-F>.

This package provides tools for transport planning with an emphasis on spatial transport data and non-motorized modes. The package was originally developed to support the Propensity to Cycle Tool', a publicly available strategic cycle network planning tool (Lovelace et al. 2017) <doi:10.5198/jtlu.2016.862>, but has since been extended to support public transport routing and accessibility analysis (Moreno-Monroy et al. 2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2017.08.012> and routing with locally hosted routing engines such as OSRM (Lowans et al. 2023) <doi:10.1016/j.enconman.2023.117337>. The main functions are for creating and manipulating geographic "desire lines" from origin-destination (OD) data (building on the od package); calculating routes on the transport network locally and via interfaces to routing services such as <https://cyclestreets.net/> (Desjardins et al. 2021) <doi:10.1007/s11116-021-10197-1>; and calculating route segment attributes such as bearing. The package implements the travel flow aggregration method described in Morgan and Lovelace (2020) <doi:10.1177/2399808320942779> and the OD jittering method described in Lovelace et al. (2022) <doi:10.32866/001c.33873>. Further information on the package's aim and scope can be found in the vignettes and in a paper in the R Journal (Lovelace and Ellison 2018) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2018-053>, and in a paper outlining the landscape of open source software for geographic methods in transport planning (Lovelace, 2021) <doi:10.1007/s10109-020-00342-2>.

Provide utilities to work with solar time, i.e. where noon is exactly when sun culminates. Provides functions for computing sun position and times of sunrise and sunset.

Computation of second-generation p-values as described in Blume et al. (2018) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0188299> and Blume et al. (2019) <doi:10.1080/00031305.2018.1537893>. There are additional functions which provide power and type I error calculations, create graphs (particularly suited for large-scale inference usage), and a function to estimate false discovery rates based on second-generation p-value inference.

Functions, classes and methods for time series modelling with ARIMA and related models. The aim of the package is to provide consistent interface for the user. For example, a single function autocorrelations() computes various kinds of theoretical and sample autocorrelations. This is work in progress, see the documentation and vignettes for the current functionality. Function sarima() fits extended multiplicative seasonal ARIMA models with trends, exogenous variables and arbitrary roots on the unit circle, which can be fixed or estimated (for the algebraic basis for this see <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2208.05055>, a paper on the methodology is being prepared).

Cleans and formats language transcripts guided by a series of transformation options (e.g., lemmatize words, omit stopwords, split strings across rows). SemanticDistance computes two distinct metrics of cosine semantic distance (experiential and embedding). These values reflect pairwise cosine distance between different elements or chunks of a language sample. SemanticDistance can process monologues (e.g., stories, ordered text), dialogues (e.g., conversation transcripts), word pairs arrayed in columns, and unordered word lists. Users specify options for how they wish to chunk distance calculations. These options include: rolling ngram-to-word distance (window of n-words to each new word), ngram-to-ngram distance (2-word chunk to the next 2-word chunk), pairwise distance between words arrayed in columns, matrix comparisons (i.e., all possible pairwise distances between words in an unordered list), turn-by-turn distance (talker to talker in a dialogue transcript). SemanticDistance includes visualization options for analyzing distances as time series data and simple semantic network dynamics (e.g., clustering, undirected graph network).

Allow sharing sensitive information, for example passwords, API keys, etc., in R packages, using public key cryptography.

This package provides a graphical and automated pipeline for the analysis of short time-series in R ('santaR'). This approach is designed to accommodate asynchronous time sampling (i.e. different time points for different individuals), inter-individual variability, noisy measurements and large numbers of variables. Based on a smoothing splines functional model, santaR is able to detect variables highlighting significantly different temporal trajectories between study groups. Designed initially for metabolic phenotyping, santaR is also suited for other Systems Biology disciplines. Command line and graphical analysis (via a shiny application) enable fast and parallel automated analysis and reporting, intuitive visualisation and comprehensive plotting options for non-specialist users.

The developed package can be used to generate a spatial population for different levels of relationships among the dependent and auxiliary variables along with spatially varying model parameters. A spatial layout is designed as a [0,k-1]x[0,k-1] square region on which observations are collected at (k x k) lattice points with a unit distance between any two neighbouring points along the horizontal and vertical axes. For method details see Chao, Liu., Chuanhua, Wei. and Yunan, Su. (2018).<doi:10.1080/10485252.2018.1499907>. The generated spatial population can be utilized in Geographically Weighted Regression model based analysis for studying the spatially varying relationships among the variables. Furthermore, various statistical analysis can be performed on this spatially generated data.

Transform complex statistical output into straightforward, understandable, and context-aware natural language descriptions using Large Language Models (LLMs), making complex analyses more accessible to individuals with varying statistical expertise. It relies on the ellmer package to interface with LLM providers including OpenAI <https://openai.com/>, Google AI Studio <https://aistudio.google.com/>, and Anthropic <https://www.anthropic.com/> (API keys are required and managed via ellmer').

Work with and download road traffic casualty data from Great Britain. Enables access to the UK's official road safety statistics, STATS19'. Enables users to specify a download directory for the data, which can be set permanently by adding `STATS19_DOWNLOAD_DIRECTORY=/path/to/a/dir` to your `.Renviron` file, which can be opened with `usethis::edit_r_environ()`. The data is provided as a series of `.csv` files. This package downloads, reads-in and formats the data, making it suitable for analysis. See the stats19 vignette for details.
