Applies the item weighting method from Kilic & Dogan (2019) <doi:10.21031/epod.516057>. To improve construct validity, this method re-computes scores by utilizing the item discrimination index in conjunction with a condition established upon person ability and item difficulty.
This tool provides a parallel version of the L-BFGS-B method of optim(). The main function of the package is optimParallel(), which has the same usage and output as optim(). Using optimParallel() can significantly reduce the optimization time.
Similarly to the FNN package, this package allows calculation of the k nearest neighbors (kNN) of a data matrix. The implementation is based on cover trees introduced by Alina Beygelzimer, Sham Kakade, and John Langford (2006) doi:10.1145/1143844.1143857.
This package generates version 2 and 4 request signatures for Amazon Web Services (AWS) and provides a mechanism for retrieving credentials from environment variables, AWS credentials files, and EC2 instance metadata. For use on EC2 instances, the package 'aws.ec2metadata' is suggested.
This package provides a package that allows interactive exploration of AnnotationHub and ExperimentHub resources. It uses DT / DataTable to display resources for multiple organisms. It provides template code for reproducibility and for downloading resources via the indicated Hub package.
Randomized multiple-select and single-select question generation for the MyLearn teaching and learning platform. Question templates in the form of the R/exams package (see <http://www.r-exams.org/>) are transformed into XML format required by MyLearn'.
Create correlation heatmaps with ggplot2 and customise them with flexible annotation and clustering. Symmetric heatmaps can use triangular or mixed layouts, removing redundant information or displaying complementary information in the two halves. There is also support for general heatmaps not displaying correlations.
This package provides functions for visualizing networks with tmap'. It supports sfnetworks objects natively but is not limited to them. Useful for adding network layers such as edges and nodes to tmap maps. More features may be added in future versions.
Runs tests using the testthat package but allows for multiple attempts for a single test. This is useful for noisy or flaky tests that generally pass but can fail due to occasional random errors, such as numeric instability or using random data.
This package creates a persistent on-disk cache of files that the user can add, update, and retrieve. It is useful for managing resources (such as custom Txdb objects) that are costly or difficult to create, web resources, and data files used across sessions.
This package implements a successive halving and hyperband optimization algorithm for the mlr3 ecosystem. The implementation in mlr3hyperband features improved scheduling and parallelizes the evaluation of configurations. The package includes tuners for hyperparameter optimization in mlr3tuning and optimizers for black-box optimization in bbotk.
Collection of spatial transcriptomics datasets stored in SpatialExperiment Bioconductor format, for use in examples, demonstrations, and tutorials. The datasets are from several different platforms and have been sourced from various publicly available sources. Several datasets include images and/or reference annotation labels.
Users can declare causal models over binary nodes, update beliefs about causal types given data, and calculate arbitrary queries. Updating is implemented in stan'. See Humphreys and Jacobs, 2023, Integrated Inferences (<DOI: 10.1017/9781316718636>) and Pearl, 2009 Causality (<DOI:10.1017/CBO9780511803161>).
Embed interactive charts to their Shiny applications. These charts will be generated by ECharts library developed by Baidu (<http://echarts.baidu.com/>). Current version supports line chart, bar chart, pie chart, scatter plot, gauge, word cloud, radar chart, tree map, and heat map.
Visualise overlapping time series lines as a heatmap of line density. Provides a ggplot2 statistic implementing the DenseLines algorithm, which "normalizes time series by the arc length to compute accurate densities" (Moritz and Fisher, 2018) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1808.06019>.
This package provides a tool to format R markdown with CSS ids for HTML output. The tool may be most helpful for those using markdown to create reproducible documents. The biggest limitations in formatting is the knowledge of CSS by the document authors.
In the working paper titled "Why You Should Never Use the Hodrick-Prescott Filter", James D. Hamilton proposes a new alternative to economic time series filtering. The neverhpfilter package provides functions and data for reproducing his work. Hamilton (2017) <doi:10.3386/w23429>.
During the preparation of data set(s) one usually performs some sanity checks. The idea is that irrespective of where the checks are performed, they are centralized by this package in order to list all at once with examples if a check failed.
This package provides a toolset that allows you to easily import and tidy data sheets retrieved from Gapminder data web tools. It will therefore contribute to reduce the time used in data cleaning of Gapminder indicator data sheets as they are very messy.
This package produces violin plots with optional nonparametric (Mann-Whitney test) and parametric (Tukey's honest significant difference) mean comparison and linear regression. This package aims to be a simple and quick visualization tool for comparing means and assessing trends of categorical factors.
This manual explains the C language for use with the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) on the GNU/Linux system and other systems. We refer to this dialect as GNU C. If you already know C, you can use this as a reference manual.
This package provides statistical methods especially developed to analyze anthropometric data. These methods are aimed at providing effective solutions to some commons problems related to Ergonomics and Anthropometry. They are based on clustering, the statistical concept of data depth, statistical shape analysis and archetypal analysis.
This package defines S4 classes for single-cell genomic data and associated information, such as dimensionality reduction embeddings, nearest-neighbor graphs, and spatially-resolved coordinates. It provides data access methods and R-native hooks to ensure the Seurat object is familiar to other R users.
This package provides a set of tools to forge BSgenome data packages. Supersedes the old seed-based tools from the BSgenome software package. This package allows the user to create a BSgenome data package in one function call, simplifying the old seed-based process.
