This package provides functions for assessing variable relations and associations prior to modeling with a Random Forest algorithm (although these are relevant for any predictive model). Metrics such as partial correlations and variance inflation factors are tabulated as well as plotted for the user. A function is available for tuning the main Random Forest hyper-parameter based on model performance and variable importance metrics. This grid-search technique provides tables and plots showing the effect of the main hyper-parameter on each of the assessment metrics. It also returns each of the evaluated models to the user. The package also provides superior variable importance plots for individual models. All of the plots are developed so that the user has the ability to edit and improve further upon the plots. Derivations and methodology are described in Bladen (2022) <https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/etd/8587/>.

Ensmallen is a templated C++ mathematical optimization library (by the MLPACK team) that provides a simple set of abstractions for writing an objective function to optimize. Provided within are various standard and cutting-edge optimizers that include full-batch gradient descent techniques, small-batch techniques, gradient-free optimizers, and constrained optimization. The RcppEnsmallen package includes the header files from the Ensmallen library and pairs the appropriate header files from armadillo through the RcppArmadillo package. Therefore, users do not need to install Ensmallen nor Armadillo to use RcppEnsmallen'. Note that Ensmallen is licensed under 3-Clause BSD, Armadillo starting from 7.800.0 is licensed under Apache License 2, RcppArmadillo (the Rcpp bindings/bridge to Armadillo') is licensed under the GNU GPL version 2 or later. Thus, RcppEnsmallen is also licensed under similar terms. Note that Ensmallen requires a compiler that supports C++14 and Armadillo 10.8.2 or later.

Root Expected Proportion Squared Difference (REPSD) is a nonparametric differential item functioning (DIF) method that (a) allows practitioners to explore for DIF related to small, fine-grained focal groups of examinees, and (b) compares the focal group directly to the composite group that will be used to develop the reported test score scale. Using your provided response matrix with a column that identifies focal group membership, this package provides the REPSD values, a simulated null distribution of possible REPSD values, and the simulated p-values identifying items possibly displaying DIF without requiring enormous sample sizes.

The Reproducible Open Coding Kit ('ROCK', and this package, rock') was developed to facilitate reproducible and open coding, specifically geared towards qualitative research methods. It was developed to be both human- and machine-readable, in the spirit of MarkDown and YAML'. The idea is that this makes it relatively easy to write other functions and packages to process ROCK files. The rock package contains functions for basic coding and analysis, such as collecting and showing coded fragments and prettifying sources, as well as a number of advanced analyses such as the Qualitative Network Approach and Qualitative/Unified Exploration of State Transitions. The ROCK and this rock package are described in the ROCK book (ZörgÅ & Peters, 2022; <https://rockbook.org>), in ZörgÅ & Peters (2024) <doi:10.1080/21642850.2022.2119144> and Peters, ZörgÅ and van der Maas (2022) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/cvf52>, and more information and tutorials are available at <https://rock.science>.

This package provides a unified framework for designing, simulating, and analyzing implementation rollout trials, including stepped wedge, sequential rollout, head-to-head, multi-condition, and rollout implementation optimization designs. The package enables users to flexibly specify rollout schedules, incorporate site-level and nested data structures, generate outcomes under rich hierarchical models, and evaluate analytic strategies through simulation-based power analysis. By separating data generation from model fitting, the tools support assessment of bias, Type I error, and robustness to model misspecification. The workflow integrates with standard mixed-effects modeling approaches and the tidyverse ecosystem, offering transparent and reproducible tools for implementation scientists and applied statisticians.

Sequential permutation testing for statistical significance of predictors in random forests and other prediction methods. The main function of the package is rfvimptest(), which allows to test for the statistical significance of predictors in random forests using different (sequential) permutation test strategies [1]. The advantage of sequential over conventional permutation tests is that they are computationally considerably less intensive, as the sequential procedure is stopped as soon as there is sufficient evidence for either the null or the alternative hypothesis.

Captures errors encountered when running run_examples()', and processes and archives them. The function run_examples() within the devtools package allows batch execution of all of the examples within a given package. This is much more convenient than testing each example manually. However, a major inconvenience is that if an error is encountered, the program stops and does not complete testing the remaining examples. Also, there is not a systematic record of the results, namely which package functions had no examples, which had examples that failed, and which had examples that succeeded. The current package provides the missing functionality.

This package provides a machine learning package for automatic text classification that makes it simple for novice users to get started with machine learning, while allowing experienced users to easily experiment with different settings and algorithm combinations.

This reduced piecewise exponential survival software implements the likelihood ratio test and backward elimination procedure in Han, Schell, and Kim (2012 <doi:10.1080/19466315.2012.698945>, 2014 <doi:10.1002/sim.5915>), and Han et al. (2016 <doi:10.1111/biom.12590>). Inputs to the program can be either times when events/censoring occur or the vectors of total time on test and the number of events. Outputs of the programs are times and the corresponding p-values in the backward elimination. Details about the model and implementation are given in Han et al. 2014. This program can run in R version 3.2.2 and above.
