Dichotomous responses having two categories can be analyzed with stats::glm() or lme4::glmer() using the family=binomial option. Unfortunately, polytomous responses with three or more unordered categories cannot be analyzed similarly because there is no analogous family=multinomial option. For between-subjects data, nnet::multinom() can address this need, but it cannot handle random factors and therefore cannot handle repeated measures. To address this gap, we transform nominal response data into counts for each categorical alternative. These counts are then analyzed using (mixed) Poisson regression as per Baker (1994) <doi:10.2307/2348134>. Omnibus analyses of variance can be run along with post hoc pairwise comparisons. For users wishing to analyze nominal responses from surveys or experiments, the functions in this package essentially act as though stats::glm() or lme4::glmer() provide a family=multinomial option.

Local adaptation and evaluation of maps of continuous attributes in raster format by use of point location data.

This package provides functions to support data cleaning, evaluation, and description, developed for integration with Maelstrom Research software tools. madshapR provides functions primarily to evaluate and manipulate datasets and data dictionaries in preparation for data harmonization with the package Rmonize and to facilitate integration and transfer between RStudio servers and secure Opal environments. madshapR functions can be used independently but are optimized in conjunction with â Rmonizeâ functions for streamlined and coherent harmonization processing.

Toolset that enriches mlr with a diverse set of preprocessing operators. Composable Preprocessing Operators ("CPO"s) are first-class R objects that can be applied to data.frames and mlr "Task"s to modify data, can be attached to mlr "Learner"s to add preprocessing to machine learning algorithms, and can be composed to form preprocessing pipelines.

Parameter estimation and classification for Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) in the presence of missing data. This package complements existing implementations by allowing for both missing elements in the input vectors and full (as opposed to strictly diagonal) covariance matrices. Estimation is performed using an expectation conditional maximization algorithm that accounts for missingness of both the cluster assignments and the vector components. The output includes the marginal cluster membership probabilities; the mean and covariance of each cluster; the posterior probabilities of cluster membership; and a completed version of the input data, with missing values imputed to their posterior expectations. For additional details, please see McCaw ZR, Julienne H, Aschard H. "Fitting Gaussian mixture models on incomplete data." <doi:10.1186/s12859-022-04740-9>.

Regression methods to quantify the relation between two measurement methods are provided by this package. In particular it addresses regression problems with errors in both variables and without repeated measurements. It implements the Clinical Laboratory Standard International (CLSI) recommendations (see J. A. Budd et al. (2018, <https://clsi.org/standards/products/method-evaluation/documents/ep09/>) for analytical method comparison and bias estimation using patient samples. Furthermore, algorithms for Theil-Sen and equivariant Passing-Bablok estimators are implemented, see F. Dufey (2020, <doi:10.1515/ijb-2019-0157>) and J. Raymaekers and F. Dufey (2022, <arXiv:2202:08060>). Further the robust M-Deming and MM-Deming (experimental) are available, see G. Pioda (2021, <arXiv:2105:04628>). A comprehensive overview over the implemented methods and references can be found in the manual pages mcrPioda-package and mcreg'.

Fitting and testing multinomial processing tree (MPT) models, a class of nonlinear models for categorical data. The parameters are the link probabilities of a tree-like graph and represent the latent cognitive processing steps executed to arrive at observable response categories (Batchelder & Riefer, 1999 <doi:10.3758/bf03210812>; Erdfelder et al., 2009 <doi:10.1027/0044-3409.217.3.108>; Riefer & Batchelder, 1988 <doi:10.1037/0033-295x.95.3.318>).

Handling the microclimatic data in R. The myClim workflow begins at the reading data primary from microclimatic dataloggers, but can be also reading of meteorological station data from files. Cleaning time step, time zone settings and metadata collecting is the next step of the work flow. With myClim tools one can crop, join, downscale, and convert microclimatic data formats, sort them into localities, request descriptive characteristics and compute microclimatic variables. Handy plotting functions are provided with smart defaults.

This package provides functions for model-based response dimension reduction. Usual dimension reduction methods in multivariate regression focus on the reduction of predictors, not responses. The response dimension reduction is theoretically founded in Yoo and Cook (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2008.07.029>. Later, three model-based response dimension reduction approaches are proposed in Yoo (2016) <doi:10.1080/02331888.2017.1410152> and Yoo (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.jkss.2019.02.001>. The method by Yoo and Cook (2008) is based on non-parametric ordinary least squares, but the model-based approaches are done through maximum likelihood estimation. For two model-based response dimension reduction methods called principal fitted response reduction and unstructured principal fitted response reduction, chi-squared tests are provided for determining the dimension of the response subspace.

Many times, you will not find data for all dates. After first January, 2011 you may have next data on 20th January, 2011 and so on. Also available dates may have zero values. Try to gather all such kinds of data in different excel sheets of a single excel file. Every sheet will contain two columns (1st one is dates and second one is the data). After loading all the sheets into different elements of a list, using this you can fill the gaps for all the sheets and mark all the corresponding values as zeros. Here I am talking about daily data. Finally, it will combine all the filled results into one data frame (first column is date and other columns will be corresponding values of your sheets) and give one combined data frame. Number of columns in the data frame will be number of sheets plus one. Then imputation will be done. Daily to monthly and weekly conversion is also possible. More details can be found in Garai and others (2023) <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.11977.42087>.

Create dummy variables from categorical data. This package can convert categorical data (factor and ordered) into dummy variables and handle multiple columns simultaneously. This package enables to select whether a dummy variable for base group is included (for principal component analysis/factor analysis) or excluded (for regression analysis) by an option. makedummies function accepts data.frame', matrix', and tbl (tibble) class (by tibble package). matrix class data is automatically converted to data.frame class.

Perform multivariate modeling of evolved traits, with special attention to understanding the interplay of the multi-factorial determinants of their origins in complex ecological settings (Stephens, 2007 <doi:10.1016/j.tree.2006.12.003>). This software primarily concentrates on phylogenetic regression analysis, enabling implementation of tree transformation averaging and visualization functionality. Functions additionally support information theoretic approaches (Grueber, 2011 <doi:10.1111/j.1420-9101.2010.02210.x>; Garamszegi, 2011 <doi:10.1007/s00265-010-1028-7>) such as model averaging and selection of phylogenetic models. Accessory functions are also implemented for coef standardization (Cade 2015), selection uncertainty, and variable importance (Burnham & Anderson 2000). There are other numerous functions for visualizing confounded variables, plotting phylogenetic trees, as well as reporting and exporting modeling results. Lastly, as challenges to ecology are inherently multifarious, and therefore often multi-dataset, this package features several functions to support the identification, interpolation, merging, and updating of missing data and outdated nomenclature.
