Circular / ring buffers in R and C. There are a couple of different buffers here with different implementations that represent different trade-offs.

Sundry discrete probability distributions and helper functions.

Outliers virtually exist in any datasets of any application field. To avoid the impact of outliers, we need to use robust estimators. Classical estimators of multivariate mean and covariance matrix are the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix. Outliers will affect the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix, and thus they will affect the classical factor analysis which depends on the classical estimators (Pison, G., Rousseeuw, P.J., Filzmoser, P. and Croux, C. (2003) <doi:10.1016/S0047-259X(02)00007-6>). So it is necessary to use the robust estimators of the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix. There are several robust estimators in the literature: Minimum Covariance Determinant estimator, Orthogonalized Gnanadesikan-Kettenring, Minimum Volume Ellipsoid, M, S, and Stahel-Donoho. The most direct way to make multivariate analysis more robust is to replace the sample mean and the sample covariance matrix of the classical estimators to robust estimators (Maronna, R.A., Martin, D. and Yohai, V. (2006) <doi:10.1002/0470010940>) (Todorov, V. and Filzmoser, P. (2009) <doi:10.18637/jss.v032.i03>), which is our choice of robust factor analysis. We created an object oriented solution for robust factor analysis based on new S4 classes.

Estimates life tables, specifically (crude) death rates and (raw and graduated) death probabilities, using rolling windows in one (e.g., age), two (e.g., age and time) or three (e.g., age, time and income) dimensions. The package can also be utilised for summarising statistics and smoothing continuous variables through rolling windows in other domains, such as estimating averages of self-positioning ideology in political science.

The Ryan-Holm step-down Bonferroni or Sidak procedure is to control the family-wise (experiment-wise) type I error rate in the multiple comparisons. This procedure provides the adjusting p-values and adjusting CIs. The methods used in this package are referenced from John Ludbrook (2000) <doi:10.1046/j.1440-1681.2000.03223.x>.

An implementation of EDM algorithms based on research software developed for internal use at the Sugihara Lab ('UCSD/SIO'). The package is implemented with Rcpp wrappers around the cppEDM library. It implements the simplex projection method from Sugihara & May (1990) <doi:10.1038/344734a0>, the S-map algorithm from Sugihara (1994) <doi:10.1098/rsta.1994.0106>, convergent cross mapping described in Sugihara et al. (2012) <doi:10.1126/science.1227079>, and, multiview embedding described in Ye & Sugihara (2016) <doi:10.1126/science.aag0863>.

Numerous functions for cohort-based analyses, either for prediction or causal inference. For causal inference, it includes Inverse Probability Weighting and G-computation for marginal estimation of an exposure effect when confounders are expected. We deal with binary outcomes, times-to-events, competing events, and multi-state data. For multistate data, semi-Markov model with interval censoring may be considered, and we propose the possibility to consider the excess of mortality related to the disease compared to reference lifetime tables. For predictive studies, we propose a set of functions to estimate time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves with the possible consideration of right-censoring times-to-events or the presence of confounders. Finally, several functions are available to assess time-dependent ROC curves or survival curves from aggregated data.

This package creates JavaScript charts with the nvd3 library. So far only the multibar chart, the horizontal multibar chart, the line chart and the line chart with focus are available.

This package implements the Clustering-Informed Shared-Structure Variational Autoencoder ('CISS-VAE'), a deep learning framework for missing data imputation introduced in Khadem Charvadeh et al. (2025) <doi:10.1002/sim.70335>. The model accommodates all three types of missing data mechanisms: Missing Completely At Random (MCAR), Missing At Random (MAR), and Missing Not At Random (MNAR). While it is particularly well-suited to MNAR scenarios, where missingness patterns carry informative signals, CISS-VAE also functions effectively under MAR assumptions.

Helps to prepare a release. Before releasing an R package it is important to update the DESCRIPTION file and the changelog. This package prepares these files and also updates the versions according to the branches. It relies heavily on the desc packages.

Download and handle spatial and temporal data from the CAMELS-CL dataset (Catchment Attributes and Meteorology for Large Sample Studies, Chile) <https://camels.cr2.cl/>, developed by Alvarez-Garreton et al. (2018) <doi:10.5194/hess-22-5817-2018>. The package does not generate new data, it only facilitates direct access to the original dataset for hydrological analyses.

We rewrite of RAMpath software developed by John McArdle and Steven Boker as an R package. In addition to performing regular SEM analysis through the R package lavaan, RAMpath has unique features. First, it can generate path diagrams according to a given model. Second, it can display path tracing rules through path diagrams and decompose total effects into their respective direct and indirect effects as well as decompose variance and covariance into individual bridges. Furthermore, RAMpath can fit dynamic system models automatically based on latent change scores and generate vector field plots based upon results obtained from a bivariate dynamic system. Starting version 0.4, RAMpath can conduct power analysis for both univariate and bivariate latent change score models.

The handling of an API key (misnomer for password) for protected data can be difficult. This package provides secure convenience functions for entering / handling API keys and pulling data directly into memory. By default it will load from REDCap instances, but other sources are injectable via inversion of control.

The analysis of different aspects of biodiversity requires specific algorithms. For example, in regionalisation analyses, the high frequency of ties and zero values in dissimilarity matrices produced by Beta-diversity turnover produces hierarchical cluster dendrograms whose topology and bootstrap supports are affected by the order of rows in the original matrix. Moreover, visualisation of biogeographical regionalisation can be facilitated by a combination of hierarchical clustering and multi-dimensional scaling. The recluster package provides robust techniques to visualise and analyse patterns of biodiversity and to improve occurrence data for cryptic taxa.
