Nonparametric methods for analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) are distribution-free and provide a flexible statistical framework for situations where the assumptions of parametric ANCOVA are violated or when the response variable is ordinal. This package implements several well-known nonparametric ANCOVA procedures, including Quade, Puri and Sen, McSweeney and Porter, Burnett and Barr, Hettmansperger and McKean, Shirley, and Puri-Sen-Harwell-Serlin. The package provides user-friendly functions to apply these methods in practice. These methods are described in Olejnik et al. (1985) <doi:10.1177/0193841X8500900104> and Harwell et al. (1988) <doi:10.1037/0033-2909.104.2.268>.

Perform non-bipartite matching and matched randomization. A "bipartite" matching utilizes two separate groups, e.g. smokers being matched to nonsmokers or cases being matched to controls. A "non-bipartite" matching creates mates from one big group, e.g. 100 hospitals being randomized for a two-arm cluster randomized trial or 5000 children who have been exposed to various levels of secondhand smoke and are being paired to form a greater exposure vs. lesser exposure comparison. At the core of a non-bipartite matching is a N x N distance matrix for N potential mates. The distance between two units expresses a measure of similarity or quality as mates (the lower the better). The gendistance() and distancematrix() functions assist in creating this. The nonbimatch() function creates the matching that minimizes the total sum of distances between mates; hence, it is referred to as an "optimal" matching. The assign.grp() function aids in performing a matched randomization. Note bipartite matching can be performed using the prevent option in gendistance()'.

This package provides functions for specifying and fitting nested dichotomy logistic regression models for a multi-category response and methods for summarising and plotting those models. Nested dichotomies are statistically independent, and hence provide an additive decomposition of tests for the overall polytomous response. When the dichotomies make sense substantively, this method can be a simpler alternative to the standard multinomial logistic model which compares response categories to a reference level. See: J. Fox (2016), "Applied Regression Analysis and Generalized Linear Models", 3rd Ed., ISBN 1452205663.

Implement and enhance the performance of spatial fuzzy clustering using Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering with various optimization algorithms, mainly from Xin She Yang (2014) <ISBN:9780124167438> with book entitled Nature-Inspired Optimization Algorithms. The optimization algorithm is useful to tackle the disadvantages of clustering inconsistency when using the traditional approach. The distance measurements option is also provided in order to increase the quality of clustering results. The Fuzzy Geographically Weighted Clustering with nature inspired optimisation algorithm was firstly developed by Arie Wahyu Wijayanto and Ayu Purwarianti (2014) <doi:10.1109/CITSM.2014.7042178> using Artificial Bee Colony algorithm.
