This package contains tools for exploring Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for diallelic genetic marker data. All classical tests (chi-square, exact, likelihood-ratio and permutation tests) for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are included in the package, as well as functions for power computation and for the simulation of marker data under equilibrium and disequilibrium. Routines for dealing with markers on the X-chromosome are included. Functions for testing equilibrium in the presence of missing data by using multiple imputation are also provided. Implements several graphics for exploring the equilibrium status of a large set of diallelic markers: ternary plots with acceptance regions, log-ratio plots and Q-Q plots.

Distance multivariance is a measure of dependence which can be used to detect and quantify dependence of arbitrarily many random vectors. The necessary functions are implemented in this packages and examples are given. It includes: distance multivariance, distance multicorrelation, dependence structure detection, tests of independence and copula versions of distance multivariance based on the Monte Carlo empirical transform. Detailed references are given in the package description, as starting point for the theoretic background we refer to: B. Böttcher, Dependence and Dependence Structures: Estimation and Visualization Using the Unifying Concept of Distance Multivariance. Open Statistics, Vol. 1, No. 1 (2020), <doi:10.1515/stat-2020-0001>.

Offering enhanced statistical power compared to traditional hypothesis testing methods, informative hypothesis testing allows researchers to explicitly model their expectations regarding the relationships among parameters. An important software tool for this framework is restriktor'. The mmirestriktor package provides shiny web applications to implement some of the basic functionality of restriktor'. The mmirestriktor() function launches a shiny application for fitting and analyzing models with constraints. The FbarCards() function launches a card game application which can help build intuition about informative hypothesis testing. The iht_interpreter() helps interpret informative hypothesis testing results based on guidelines in Vanbrabant and Rosseel (2020) <doi:10.4324/9780429273872-14>.

The computational complexity of the implemented algorithm for Kendall's correlation is O(n log(n)), which is faster than the base R implementation with a computational complexity of O(n^2). For small vectors (i.e., less than 100 observations), the time difference is negligible. However, for larger vectors, the speed difference can be substantial and the numerical difference is minimal. The references are Knight (1966) <doi:10.2307/2282833>, Abrevaya (1999) <doi:10.1016/S0165-1765(98)00255-9>, Christensen (2005) <doi:10.1007/BF02736122> and Emara (2024) <https://learningcpp.org/>. This implementation is described in Vargas Sepulveda (2025) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0326090>.

Life expectancy is highly correlated over time among countries and between males and females. These associations can be used to improve forecasts. Here we have implemented a method for forecasting female life expectancy based on analysis of the gap between female life expectancy in a country compared with the record level of female life expectancy in the world. Second, to forecast male life expectancy, the gap between male life expectancy and female life expectancy in a country is analysed. We named this method the Double-Gap model. For a detailed description of the method see Pascariu et al. (2018). <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2017.09.011>.

Hierarchical multistate models are considered to perform the analysis of independent/clustered semi-competing risks data. The package allows to choose the specification for model components from a range of options giving users substantial flexibility, including: accelerated failure time or proportional hazards regression models; parametric or non-parametric specifications for baseline survival functions and cluster-specific random effects distribution; a Markov or semi-Markov specification for terminal event following non-terminal event. While estimation is mainly performed within the Bayesian paradigm, the package also provides the maximum likelihood estimation approach for several parametric models. The package also includes functions for univariate survival analysis as complementary analysis tools.

This Lua module offers an interface to the GNU readline library.

The function readline() is a wrapper, which invokes the GNU readline, adds the line to the end of the history list, and then returns the line. Usually you call save_history() before the program exits, so that the history list is saved to the histfile.

This Lua module can dialogue with the user on the controlling-terminal of the process (typically /dev/tty) as returned by ctermid(). It also support most of readline's alternative interface, namely handler_install, read_char and handler_remove, and readline's custom completion.

Statistical analysis of archaeological dates and groups of dates. This package allows to post-process Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations from ChronoModel <https://chronomodel.com/>, Oxcal <https://c14.arch.ox.ac.uk/oxcal.html> or BCal <https://bcal.shef.ac.uk/>. It provides functions for the study of rhythms of the long term from the posterior distribution of a series of dates (tempo and activity plot). It also allows the estimation and visualization of time ranges from the posterior distribution of groups of dates (e.g. duration, transition and hiatus between successive phases) as described in Philippe and Vibet (2020) <doi:10.18637/jss.v093.c01>.

Create data summaries for quality control, extensive reports for exploring data, as well as publication-ready univariate or bivariate tables in several formats (plain text, HTML,LaTeX, PDF, Word or Excel. Create figures to quickly visualise the distribution of your data (boxplots, barplots, normality-plots, etc.). Display statistics (mean, median, frequencies, incidences, etc.). Perform the appropriate tests (t-test, Analysis of variance, Kruskal-Wallis, Fisher, log-rank, ...) depending on the nature of the described variable (normal, non-normal or qualitative). Summarize genetic data (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) data displaying Allele Frequencies and performing Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium tests among other typical statistics and tests for these kind of data.

This package provides a fully automated workflow for calibrating and analyzing light-level geolocation ('GLS') data from seabirds and other wildlife. The glscalibrator package auto-discovers birds from directory structures, automatically detects calibration periods from the first days of deployment, processes multiple individuals in batch mode, and generates standardized outputs including position estimates, diagnostic plots, and quality control metrics. Implements the established threshold workflow internally, following the methods described in SGAT (Wotherspoon et al. (2016) <https://github.com/SWotherspoon/SGAT>), GeoLight (Lisovski et al. (2012) <doi:10.1111/j.2041-210X.2012.00185.x>), and TwGeos (Lisovski et al. (2019) <https://github.com/slisovski/TwGeos>).

This package implements a systematic methodology for estimating population density from point-centered quarter method (PCQM) surveys when distance measurements are truncated by a maximum search radius (right-censored). The package provides a unified framework for analyzing such incomplete data, addressing both completely randomly distributed (Poisson) and spatially aggregated (Negative Binomial) populations. Key features include: (1) Adjusted moment-based density estimators for censored distances; (2) Maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) of density under the Poisson (CSR) model; and (3) Simultaneous MLE of density and an aggregation parameter under the Negative Binomial model. For more details, see Huang, Shen, Xing, and Zhao (2026) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2603.08276>.

Detect Differential Clustering of Genomic Sites such as gene therapy integrations. The package provides some functions for exploring genomic insertion sites originating from two different sources. Possibly, the two sources are two different gene therapy vectors. Vectors are preferred that target sensitive regions less frequently, motivating the search for localized clusters of insertions and comparison of the clusters formed by integration of different vectors. Scan statistics allow the discovery of spatial differences in clustering and calculation of False Discovery Rates (FDRs) providing statistical methods for comparing retroviral vectors. A scan statistic for comparing two vectors using multiple window widths to detect clustering differentials and compute FDRs is implemented here.

This package provides an implementation of finite mixture regression models for censored data under four distributional families: Normal (FM-NCR), Student t (FM-TCR), skew-Normal (FM-SNCR), and skew-t (FM-STCR). The package enables flexible modeling of skewness and heavy tails often observed in real-world data, while explicitly accounting for censoring. Functions are included for parameter estimation via the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, computation of standard errors, and model comparison criteria such as the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and the Efficient Determination Criterion (EDC). The underlying methodology is described in Park et al. (2024) <doi:10.1007/s00180-024-01459-4>.

This package provides a function called COTUCKER3() (Co-Inertia Analysis + Tucker3 method) which performs a Co-Tucker3 analysis of two sequences of matrices, as well as other functions called PCA() (Principal Component Analysis) and BGA() (Between-Groups Analysis), which perform analysis of one matrix, COIA() (Co-Inertia Analysis), which performs analysis of two matrices, PTA() (Partial Triadic Analysis), STATIS(), STATISDUAL() and TUCKER3(), which perform analysis of a sequence of matrices, and BGCOIA() (Between-Groups Co-Inertia Analysis), STATICO() (STATIS method + Co-Inertia Analysis), COSTATIS() (Co-Inertia Analysis + STATIS method), which also perform analysis of two sequences of matrices.

Identification of equilibrium locations in location games (Hotelling (1929) <doi:10.2307/2224214>). In these games, two competing actors place customer-serving units in two locations simultaneously. Customers make the decision to visit the location that is closest to them. The functions in this package include Prim algorithm (Prim (1957) <doi:10.1002/j.1538-7305.1957.tb01515.x>) to find the minimum spanning tree connecting all network vertices, an implementation of Dijkstra algorithm (Dijkstra (1959) <doi:10.1007/BF01386390>) to find the shortest distance and path between any two vertices, a self-developed algorithm using elimination of purely dominated strategies to find the equilibrium, and several plotting functions.

Fits a flexible class of p-value selection models for meta-analysis and meta-regression models, providing standard errors and confidence intervals based on either cluster-robust variance estimators (i.e., sandwich estimators) or cluster-level bootstrapping to handle dependent effect size estimates, as described in Pustejovsky, Citkowicz, and Joshi (2025) <DOI:10.31222/osf.io/qg5x6_v1> and Citkowicz, Pustejovsky, and Joshi (2026) <DOI:10.31222/osf.io/wjpxk_v1>. Supported models include generalizations of the step-function selection model as proposed by Vevea and Hedges (1995) <DOI:10.1007/BF02294384> and the beta-function selection model as proposed by Citkowicz and Vevea (2017) <DOI:10.1037/met0000119>.

Computes the Patient-Reported Outcomes (PROs) Joint Contrast (PJC), a residual-based summary that captures information left over after accounting for the clinical Disease Activity index for Psoriatic Arthritis (cDAPSA). PROs (pain and patient global assessment) and joint counts (swollen and tender) are standardized, then each component is adjusted for standardized cDAPSA using natural spline coefficients that were derived from previously published models. The resulting residuals are standardized and combined using fixed principal component loadings, to yield a continuous PJC score and quartile groupings. This package provides a calculator for applying those published coefficients to new datasets; it does not itself estimate spline models or principal components.

This package implements asynchronous message-passing communication protocols for island models of extended and evolutionary algorithms (see Tomassini, Marco (2005, ISBN:978-3-540-24193-5)) for the R-package xega <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=xega>. Basic asynchronous as well as synchronized communication primitives are supplied based on file I/O operations ('rds') on a shared file system or by openMPI (MPI) messages. The gene selection and replacement strategies, the migration policy as well as the communication topology between islands are configurable. Homogeneous and heterogeneous island algorithms are supported. For examples (R and shell-scripts), see <https://github.com/ageyerschulz/xega/tree/main/examples/IslandModels>.

This package provides a non-parametric test founded upon the principles of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) test, referred to as the KS Predictive Accuracy (KSPA) test. The KSPA test is able to serve two distinct purposes. Initially, the test seeks to determine whether there exists a statistically significant difference between the distribution of forecast errors, and secondly it exploits the principles of stochastic dominance to determine whether the forecasts with the lower error also reports a stochastically smaller error than forecasts from a competing model, and thereby enables distinguishing between the predictive accuracy of forecasts. KSPA test has been described in : Hassani and Silva (2015) <doi:10.3390/econometrics3030590>.
