This package provides ensemble samplers for affine-invariant Monte Carlo Markov Chain, which allow a faster convergence for badly scaled estimation problems. Two samplers are proposed: the differential.evolution sampler from ter Braak and Vrugt (2008) <doi:10.1007/s11222-008-9104-9> and the stretch sampler from Goodman and Weare (2010) <doi:10.2140/camcos.2010.5.65>.

The package is intended for field studies in ecology and behavior where natural light levels are used as predictor variables. See Poon et al. (2024) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.14299>. Calculations use astronomical quantities from suncalc and published illuminance models, including Austin et al. (1976) <doi:10.2307/2402251> and Seidelmann (1992) <ISBN:0935702687>.

In many agricultural, engineering, industrial, post-harvest and processing experiments, the number of factor level changes and hence the total number of changes is of serious concern as such experiments may consists of hard-to-change factors where it is physically very difficult to change levels of some factors or sometime such experiments may require normalization time to obtain adequate operating condition. For this reason, run orders that offer the minimum number of factor level changes and at the same time minimize the possible influence of systematic trend effects on the experimentation have been sought. Factorial designs with minimum changes in factors level may be preferred for such situations as these minimally changed run orders will minimize the cost of the experiments. This technique can be employed to any half replicate of two level factorial run order where the number of factors are greater than two. For method details see, Bhowmik, A., Varghese, E., Jaggi, S. and Varghese, C. (2017) <doi:10.1080/03610926.2016.1152490>. This package generates all possible minimally changed two-level half-fractional factorial designs for different experimental setups along with various statistical criteria to measure the performance of these designs through a user-friendly interface. It consist of the function minimal.2halfFFD() which launches the application interface.

To implement a model-averaging approach with different renewal models, with a primary focus on forecasting large earthquakes. Based on six renewal models (i.e., Poisson, Gamma, Log-Logistics, Weibull, Log-Normal and BPT), model-averaged point estimates are calculated using AIC weights. Additionally, both percentile and studentized bootstrapped model-averaged confidence intervals are constructed. In comparison, point and interval estimation from the individual or "best" model (determined via model selection) can be retrieved.

High-performance implementation of the Modified Hodrick-Prescott (HP) Filter for decomposing macroeconomic time series into trend and cyclical components. Based on the methodology of Choudhary, Hanif and Iqbal (2014) <doi:10.1080/00036846.2014.894631> "On smoothing macroeconomic time series using the modified HP filter", which uses generalized cross-validation (GCV) to automatically select the optimal smoothing parameter lambda, following McDermott (1997) "An automatic method for choosing the smoothing parameter in the HP filter" (as described in Coe and McDermott (1997) <doi:10.2307/3867497>). Unlike the standard HP filter that uses fixed lambda values (1600 for quarterly, 100 for annual data), this package estimates series-specific lambda values that minimize the GCV criterion. Implements efficient C++ routines via RcppArmadillo for fast computation, supports batch processing of multiple series, and provides comprehensive visualization tools using ggplot2'. Particularly useful for cross-country macroeconomic comparisons, business cycle analysis, and when the appropriate smoothing parameter is uncertain.

Detection of multivariate outliers using robust estimates of location and scale.
