The goal of ralger is to facilitate web scraping in R.

Fit (exponential or diffusion) response-time extended multinomial processing tree (RT-MPT) models by Klauer and Kellen (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.jmp.2017.12.003> and Klauer, Hartmann, and Meyer-Grant (submitted). The RT-MPT class not only incorporate frequencies like traditional multinomial processing tree (MPT) models, but also latencies. This enables it to estimate process completion times and encoding plus motor execution times next to the process probabilities of traditional MPTs. rtmpt is a hierarchical Bayesian framework and posterior samples are sampled using a Metropolis-within-Gibbs sampler (for exponential RT-MPTs) or Hamiltonian-within-Gibbs sampler (for diffusion RT-MPTs).

Convert text into target classifications (e.g., ISO 3166-1) using a JSON mapping with regular expressions. Provides helpers to return the full mapping and associated metadata.

This package provides functions for radiation safety, also known as "radiation protection" and "radiological control". The science of radiation protection is called "health physics" and its engineering functions are called "radiological engineering". Functions in this package cover many of the computations needed by radiation safety professionals. Examples include: obtaining updated calibration and source check values for radiation monitors to account for radioactive decay in a reference source, simulating instrument readings to better understand measurement uncertainty, correcting instrument readings for geometry and ambient atmospheric conditions. Many of these functions are described in Johnson and Kirby (2011, ISBN-13: 978-1609134198). Utilities are also included for developing inputs and processing outputs with radiation transport codes, such as MCNP, a general-purpose Monte Carlo N-Particle code that can be used for neutron, photon, electron, or coupled neutron/photon/electron transport (Werner et. al. (2018) <doi:10.2172/1419730>).

Functionality for performing a principled reference analysis in the Bayesian normal-normal hierarchical model used for Bayesian meta-analysis, as described in Ott, Plummer and Roos (2021) <doi:10.1002/sim.9076>. Computes a reference posterior, induced by a minimally informative improper reference prior for the between-study (heterogeneity) standard deviation. Determines additional proper anti-conservative (and conservative) prior benchmarks. Includes functions for reference analyses at both the posterior and the prior level, which, given the data, quantify the informativeness of a heterogeneity prior of interest relative to the minimally informative reference prior and the proper prior benchmarks. The functions operate on data sets which are compatible with the bayesmeta package.

Allows developers to work with many R folders inside a package. It offers functionalities to transfer R scripts (saved outside the R folder) into the R folder while making additional checks.

This package contains functions to create regulatory-style statistical reports. Originally designed to create tables, listings, and figures for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device industries, these reports are generalized enough that they could be used in any industry. Generates text, rich-text, PDF, HTML, and Microsoft Word file formats. The package specializes in printing wide and long tables with automatic page wrapping and splitting. Reports can be produced with a minimum of function calls, and without relying on other table packages. The package supports titles, footnotes, page header, page footers, spanning headers, page by variables, and automatic page numbering.

The metrics() function calculates measures of scholarly impact. These include conventional measures, such as the number of publications and the total citations to all publications, as well as modern and robust metrics based on the vector of citations associated with each publication, such as the h index and many of its variants or rivals. These methods are described in Ruscio et al. (2012) <DOI: 10.1080/15366367.2012.711147>.

Providing wrapper functions to implement Bayesian analysis in JAGS. Some major features include monitoring convergence of a MCMC model using Rubin and Gelman Rhat statistics, automatically running a MCMC model till it converges, and implementing parallel processing of a MCMC model for multiple chains.

This package provides tools for large, sparse optimal matching of treated units and control units in observational studies. Provisions are made for refined covariate balance constraints, which include fine and near-fine balance as special cases. Matches are optimal in the sense that they are computed as solutions to network optimization problems rather than greedy algorithms. See Pimentel, et al.(2015) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2014.997879> and Pimentel (2016), Obs. Studies 2(1):4-23. The rrelaxiv package, which provides an alternative solver for the underlying network flow problems, carries an academic license and is not available on CRAN, but may be downloaded from Github at <https://github.com/josherrickson/rrelaxiv/>.

The Refugee Population Statistics Database published by The Office of The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) contains information about forcibly displaced populations spanning more than 70 years of statistical activities. It covers displaced populations such as refugees, asylum-seekers and internally displaced people, including their demographics. Stateless people are also included, most of who have never been displaced. The database also reflects the different types of solutions for displaced populations such as repatriation or resettlement. More information on the data and methodology can be found on the UNHCR Refugee Data Finder <https://www.unhcr.org/refugee-statistics/>.

The method generate() is extended for spatial multi-site stochastic generation of daily precipitation. It generates precipitation occurrence in several sites using logit regression (Generalized Linear Models) and the approach by D.S. Wilks (1998) <doi:10.1016/S0022-1694(98)00186-3> .

Implementation of an algorithm in two steps to estimate parameters of a model whose latent dynamics are inferred through latent processes, jointly regularized. This package uses Monolix software (<https://monolixsuite.slp-software.com/>), which provide robust statistical method for non-linear mixed effects modeling. Monolix must have been installed prior to use.

Regularized calibrated estimation for causal inference and missing-data problems with high-dimensional data, based on Tan (2020a) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asz059>, Tan (2020b) <doi:10.1214/19-AOS1824> and Sun and Tan (2020) <arXiv:2009.09286>.

The SPRITE algorithm creates possible distributions of discrete responses based on reported sample parameters, such as mean, standard deviation and range (Heathers et al., 2018, <doi:10.7287/peerj.preprints.26968v1>). This package implements it, drawing heavily on the code for Nick Brown's rSPRITE Shiny app <https://shiny.ieis.tue.nl/sprite/>. In addition, it supports the modeling of distributions based on multi-item (Likert-type) scales and the use of restrictions on the frequency of particular responses.

This package provides a proof of concept implementation of regularized non-negative matrix factorization optimization. A non-negative matrix factorization factors non-negative matrix Y approximately as L R, for non-negative matrices L and R of reduced rank. This package supports such factorizations with weighted objective and regularization penalties. Allowable regularization penalties include L1 and L2 penalties on L and R, as well as non-orthogonality penalties. This package provides multiplicative update algorithms, which are a modification of the algorithm of Lee and Seung (2001) <http://papers.nips.cc/paper/1861-algorithms-for-non-negative-matrix-factorization.pdf>, as well as an additive update derived from that multiplicative update. See also Pav (2004) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.22698>.

Visualization platform for T cell receptor repertoire analysis output results. It includes comparison of sequence frequency among samples, network of similar sequences and convergent recombination source between species.

The Stuttgart Neural Network Simulator (SNNS) is a library containing many standard implementations of neural networks. This package wraps the SNNS functionality to make it available from within R. Using the RSNNS low-level interface, all of the algorithmic functionality and flexibility of SNNS can be accessed. Furthermore, the package contains a convenient high-level interface, so that the most common neural network topologies and learning algorithms integrate seamlessly into R.
