This package provides a comprehensive statistical toolbox for National Statistics Institutes (INS) in Africa. Provides functions for survey data import ('KoboToolbox', ODK', CSPro', Excel', Stata', SPSS'), data processing and validation, weighted statistical analysis (descriptive statistics, cross-tabulations, regression, Human Development Index (HDI), Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) following Alkire and Foster (2011) <doi:10.1093/oep/gpr051>, inequalities), visualization (age pyramids, thematic maps, official charts) and dissemination ('SDMX export, DDI metadata, anonymization, Word/PDF reports). Designed to work in resource-constrained environments, offline and in French.

Infrastructure and functions that can be used for integrating Stan (Carpenter et al. (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v076.i01>) code into stand alone R packages which in turn use the CmdStan engine which is often accessed through CmdStanR'. Details given in Stan Development Team (2025) <https://mc-stan.org/cmdstanr/>. Using CmdStanR and pre-written Stan code can make package installation easy. Using staninside offers a way to cache user-compiled Stan models in user-specified directories reducing the need to recompile the same model multiple times.

This package provides a pipeline-friendly toolkit for assembling stop motion animations from sequences of still images. Provides functions to read image directories, restructure frame sequences (duplicate, splice, arrange), apply per-frame pixel transformations (rotate, wiggle, flip, flop, blur, scale, crop, trim, border, background), and export the result as a GIF. All transformation functions accept a frames argument to target any subset of frames, bridging the gap between magick functions that operate on an entire image stack and fine-grained stop motion editing. Image processing is performed via ImageMagick Studio LLC (2024) <https://imagemagick.org>.

This package implements multi-study learning algorithms such as merging, the study-specific ensemble (trained-on-observed-studies ensemble) the study strap, the covariate-matched study strap, covariate-profile similarity weighting, and stacking weights. Embedded within the caret framework, this package allows for a wide range of single-study learners (e.g., neural networks, lasso, random forests). The package offers over 20 default similarity measures and allows for specification of custom similarity measures for covariate-profile similarity weighting and an accept/reject step. This implements methods described in Loewinger, Kishida, Patil, and Parmigiani. (2019) <doi:10.1101/856385>.

Stochastic blockmodeling of one-mode and linked networks as presented in Škulj and Žiberna (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.socnet.2022.02.001>.

This is a compilation of my preferred themes and related theme elements for ggplot2'. I believe these themes and theme elements are aesthetically pleasing, both for pedagogical instruction and for the presentation of applied statistical research to a wide audience. These themes imply routine use of easily obtained/free fonts, simple forms of which are included in this package.
