The main attribute of PopVar is the prediction of genetic variance in bi-parental populations, from which the package derives its name. PopVar contains a set of functions that use phenotypic and genotypic data from a set of candidate parents to 1) predict the mean, genetic variance, and superior progeny value of all, or a defined set of pairwise bi-parental crosses, and 2) perform cross-validation to estimate genome-wide prediction accuracy of multiple statistical models. More details are available in Mohammadi, Tiede, and Smith (2015, <doi:10.2135/cropsci2015.01.0030>). A dataset think_barley.rda is included for reference and examples.

Quickly and easily add a mini map to your rmarkdown html documents.

This work is an extension of the state space model for Poisson count data, Poisson-Gamma model, towards a semiparametric specification. Just like the generalized additive models (GAM), cubic splines are used for covariate smoothing. The semiparametric models are fitted by an iterative process that combines maximization of likelihood and backfitting algorithm.

This package provides tools for simplifying the creation and management of data structures suitable for dealing with policy portfolios, that is, two-dimensional spaces of policy instruments and policy targets. The package also allows to generate measures of portfolio characteristics and facilitates their visualization.

Portable /proc/self/maps as a data frame. Determine which library or other region is mapped to a specific address of a process. -- R packages can contain native code, compiled to shared libraries at build or installation time. When loaded, each shared library occupies a portion of the address space of the main process. When only a machine instruction pointer is available (e.g. from a backtrace during error inspection or profiling), the address space map determines which library this instruction pointer corresponds to.

An interface to compute poverty and inequality indicators for more than 160 countries and regions from the World Bank's database of household surveys, through the Poverty and Inequality Portal (PIP).

This package provides classes and methods for modelling and simulation of periodically correlated (PC) and periodically integrated time series. Compute theoretical periodic autocovariances and related properties of PC autoregressive moving average models. Some original methods including Boshnakov & Iqelan (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9892.2009.00617.x>, Boshnakov (1996) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9892.1996.tb00281.x>.

Implementation of the pattern recognition technique Principal Component Pursuit tailored to environmental health data, as described in Gibson et al (2022) <doi:10.1289/EHP10479>.

An implementation of an S3 class based on a double vector for storing and displaying precision teaching measures, representing a growing or a decaying (multiplicative) change between two frequencies. The main format method allows researchers to display measures (including data.frame) that respect the established conventions in the precision teaching community (i.e., prefixed multiplication or division symbol, displayed number <= 1). Basic multiplication and division methods are allowed and other useful functions are provided for creating, converting or inverting precision teaching measures. For more details, see Pennypacker, Gutierrez and Lindsley (2003, ISBN: 1-881317-13-7).

This package implements novel tools for estimating sample sizes needed for phylogenetic studies, including studies focused on estimating the probability of true pathogen transmission between two cases given phylogenetic linkage and studies focused on tracking pathogen variants at a population level. Methods described in Wohl, Giles, and Lessler (2021) and in Wohl, Lee, DiPrete, and Lessler (2023).

Management problems of deterministic and stochastic projects. It obtains the duration of a project and the appropriate slack for each activity in a deterministic context. In addition it obtains a schedule of activities time (Castro, Gómez & Tejada (2007) <doi:10.1016/j.orl.2007.01.003>). It also allows the management of resources. When the project is done, and the actual duration for each activity is known, then it can know how long the project is delayed and make a fair delivery of the delay between each activity (Bergantiños, Valencia-Toledo & Vidal-Puga (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.dam.2017.08.012>). In a stochastic context it can estimate the average duration of the project and plot the density of this duration, as well as, the density of the early and last times of the chosen activities. As in the deterministic case, it can make a distribution of the delay generated by observing the project already carried out.

This software has evolved from fisheries research conducted at the Pacific Biological Station (PBS) in Nanaimo', British Columbia, Canada. It extends the R language to include two-dimensional plotting features similar to those commonly available in a Geographic Information System (GIS). Embedded C code speeds algorithms from computational geometry, such as finding polygons that contain specified point events or converting between longitude-latitude and Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates. Additionally, we include C++ code developed by Angus Johnson for the Clipper library, data for a global shoreline, and other data sets in the public domain. Under the user's R library directory .libPaths()', specifically in ./PBSmapping/doc', a complete user's guide is offered and should be consulted to use package functions effectively.

This package provides functions and data sets for the text Probability and Statistics with R, Second Edition.
