Phylogenetic comparative methods represent models of continuous trait data associated with the tips of a phylogenetic tree. Examples of such models are Gaussian continuous time branching stochastic processes such as Brownian motion (BM) and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes, which regard the data at the tips of the tree as an observed (final) state of a Markov process starting from an initial state at the root and evolving along the branches of the tree. The PCMBase R package provides a general framework for manipulating such models. This framework consists of an application programming interface for specifying data and model parameters, and efficient algorithms for simulating trait evolution under a model and calculating the likelihood of model parameters for an assumed model and trait data. The package implements a growing collection of models, which currently includes BM, OU, BM/OU with jumps, two-speed OU as well as mixed Gaussian models, in which different types of the above models can be associated with different branches of the tree. The PCMBase package is limited to trait-simulation and likelihood calculation of (mixed) Gaussian phylogenetic models. The PCMFit package provides functionality for inference of these models to tree and trait data. The package web-site <https://venelin.github.io/PCMBase/> provides access to the documentation and other resources.

This package provides data set and function for exploration of Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) 2017-18 Men questionnaire data for Punjab, Pakistan. The results of the present survey are critically important for the purposes of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) monitoring, as the survey produces information on 32 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicators. The data was collected from 53,840 households selected at the second stage with systematic random sampling out of a sample of 2,692 clusters selected using probability proportional to size sampling. Six questionnaires were used in the survey: (1) a household questionnaire to collect basic demographic information on all de jure household members (usual residents), the household, and the dwelling; (2) a water quality testing questionnaire administered in three households in each cluster of the sample; (3) a questionnaire for individual women administered in each household to all women age 15-49 years; (4) a questionnaire for individual men administered in every second household to all men age 15-49 years; (5) an under-5 questionnaire, administered to mothers (or caretakers) of all children under 5 living in the household; and (6) a questionnaire for children age 5-17 years, administered to the mother (or caretaker) of one randomly selected child age 5-17 years living in the household (<http://www.mics.unicef.org/surveys>).

Patient Rule Induction Method (PRIM) for bump hunting in high-dimensional data.

This uses a mixed integer mathematical programming (MIP) approach for building and solving multi-action planning problems, where the goal is to find an optimal combination of management actions that abate threats, in an efficient way while accounting for spatial aspects. Thus, optimizing the connectivity and conservation effectiveness of the prioritized units and of the deployed actions. The package is capable of handling different commercial (gurobi, CPLEX) and non-commercial (symphony, CBC) MIP solvers. Gurobi optimization solver can be installed using comprehensive instructions in the gurobi installation vignette of the prioritizr package (available in <https://prioritizr.net/articles/gurobi_installation_guide.html>). Instead, CPLEX optimization solver can be obtain from IBM CPLEX web page (available here <https://www.ibm.com/es-es/products/ilog-cplex-optimization-studio>). Additionally, the rcbc R package (available at <https://github.com/dirkschumacher/rcbc>) can be used to obtain solutions using the CBC optimization software (<https://github.com/coin-or/Cbc>). Methods used in the package refers to Salgado-Rojas et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2019.108901>, Beyer et al. (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolmodel.2016.02.005>, Cattarino et al. (2015) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0128027> and Watts et al. (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.envsoft.2009.06.005>. See the prioriactions website for more information, documentations and examples.

This package implements a set of methodological tools that enable researchers to apply matching methods to time-series cross-sectional data. Imai, Kim, and Wang (2023) <http://web.mit.edu/insong/www/pdf/tscs.pdf> proposes a nonparametric generalization of the difference-in-differences estimator, which does not rely on the linearity assumption as often done in practice. Researchers first select a method of matching each treated observation for a given unit in a particular time period with control observations from other units in the same time period that have a similar treatment and covariate history. These methods include standard matching methods based on propensity score and Mahalanobis distance, as well as weighting methods. Once matching and refinement is done, treatment effects can be estimated with standard errors. The package also offers diagnostics for researchers to assess the quality of their results.

This package implements (1) panel cointegration rank tests, (2) estimators for panel vector autoregressive (VAR) models, and (3) identification methods for panel structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) models as described in the accompanying vignette. The implemented functions allow to account for cross-sectional dependence and for structural breaks in the deterministic terms of the VAR processes. Among the large set of functions, particularly noteworthy are those that implement (1) the correlation-augmented inverse normal test on the cointegration rank by Arsova and Oersal (2021, <doi:10.1016/j.ecosta.2020.05.002>), (2) the two-step estimator for pooled cointegrating vectors by Breitung (2005, <doi:10.1081/ETC-200067895>), and (3) the pooled identification based on independent component analysis by Herwartz and Wang (2024, <doi:10.1002/jae.3044>).

The portmanteau local feature discriminant approach first identifies the local discriminant features and their differential structures, then constructs the discriminant rule by pooling the identified local features together. This method is applicable to high-dimensional matrix-variate data. See the paper by Xu, Luo and Chen (2023, <doi:10.1007/s13171-021-00255-2>).
