Implementation of PCMRS (Partial Credit Model with Response Styles) as proposed in by Tutz, Schauberger and Berger (2018) <doi:10.1177/0146621617748322> . PCMRS is an extension of the regular partial credit model. PCMRS allows for an additional person parameter that characterizes the response style of the person. By taking the response style into account, the estimates of the item parameters are less biased than in partial credit models.

This package implements linear and generalized linear models for provider profiling, incorporating both fixed and random effects. For large-scale providers, the linear profiled-based method and the SerBIN method for binary data reduce the computational burden. Provides post-modeling features, such as indirect and direct standardization measures, hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, and post-estimation visualization. For more information, see Wu et al. (2022) <doi:10.1002/sim.9387>.

Price comparisons within or between countries provide an overall measure of the relative difference in prices, often denoted as price levels. This package provides index number methods for such price comparisons (e.g., The World Bank, 2011, <doi:10.1596/978-0-8213-9728-2>). Moreover, it contains functions for sampling and characterizing price data.

Google Trends provides cross-sectional and time-series data on searches, but lacks readily available longitudinal data. Researchers, who want to create longitudinal Google Trends on their own, face practical challenges, such as normalized counts that make it difficult to combine cross-sectional and time-series data and limitations in data formats and timelines that limit data granularity over extended time periods. This package addresses these issues and enables researchers to generate longitudinal Google Trends data. This package is built on pytrends', a Python library that acts as the unofficial Google Trends API to collect Google Trends data. As long as the Google Trends API', pytrends and all their dependencies are working, this package will work. During testing, we noticed that for the same input (keyword, topic, data_format, timeline), the output index can vary from time to time. Besides, if the keyword is not very popular, then the resulting dataset will contain a lot of zeros, which will greatly affect the final result. While this package has no control over the accuracy or quality of Google Trends data, once the data is created, this package coverts it to longitudinal data. In addition, the user may encounter a 429 Too Many Requests error when using cross_section() and time_series() to collect Google Trends data. This error indicates that the user has exceeded the rate limits set by the Google Trends API'. For more information about the Google Trends API - pytrends', visit <https://pypi.org/project/pytrends/>.

Bayesian network learning using the PCHC, FEDHC, MMHC and variants of these algorithms. PCHC stands for PC Hill-Climbing, a new hybrid algorithm that uses PC to construct the skeleton of the BN and then applies the Hill-Climbing greedy search. More algorithms and variants have been added, such as MMHC, FEDHC, and the Tabu search variants, PCTABU, MMTABU and FEDTABU. The relevant papers are: a) Tsagris M. (2021).
