Generate pseudonymous animal names that are delightful and easy to remember like the Likable Leech and the Proud Chickadee. A unique pseudonym can be created for every unique element in a vector or row in a data frame. Pseudonyms can be customized and tracked over time, so that the same input is always assigned the same pseudonym.

Flight performance is estimated based on basic morphological measurements such as body mass, wingspan and wing area. Afpt can be used to make predictions on how animals should adjust their flight behaviour and wingbeat kinematics to varying flight conditions.

• non-stripped binaries (i.e. binaries with debug symbols),

• broken symbolic links,

• empty files and directories,

• files with broken user and/or group ID.

Rho is used to test the generalization of inter rater reliability (IRR) statistics. Calculating rho starts by generating a large number of simulated, fully-coded data sets: a sizable collection of hypothetical populations, all of which have a kappa value below a given threshold -- which indicates unacceptable agreement. Then kappa is calculated on a sample from each of those sets in the collection to see if it is equal to or higher than the kappa in then real sample. If less than five percent of the distribution of samples from the simulated data sets is greater than actual observed kappa, the null hypothesis is rejected and one can conclude that if the two raters had coded the rest of the data, we would have acceptable agreement (kappa above the threshold).

The matrix factor model has drawn growing attention for its advantage in achieving two-directional dimension reduction simultaneously for matrix-structured observations. In contrast to the Principal Component Analysis (PCA)-based methods, we propose a simple Iterative Alternating Least Squares (IALS) algorithm for matrix factor model, see the details in He et al. (2023) <arXiv:2301.00360>.

In view of the analysis of the structural characteristics of the tripartite network has been complete, however, there is still a lack of a unified operation that can quickly obtain the corresponding characteristics of the tripartite network. To solve this insufficiency, ILSM was designed for supporting calculating such metrics of tripartite networks by functions of this R package.

An implementation of the Log Cumulative Probability Model (LCPM) and Proportional Probability Model (PPM) for which the Maximum Likelihood Estimates are determined using constrained optimization.
