Computation of the International Roughness Index (IRI) given a longitudinal road profile. The IRI can be calculated for a single road segment or for a sequence of segments with a fixed length (e. g. 100m). For the latter, an overlap of the segments can be selected. The IRI and likewise the algorithms for its determination are defined in Sayers, Michael W; Gillespie, Thomas D; Queiroz, Cesar A.V. 1986. The International Road Roughness Experiment (IRRE) : establishing correlation and a calibration standard for measurements. World Bank technical paper; no. WTP 45. Washington, DC : The World Bank.

(2023) <doi:10.1111/biom.13769>). The software implements balanced and unbalanced optimal transport and omnibus tests with C++ across a set of tumor samples and allows for multi-threading to decrease computational runtime.

Application of reinsurance treaties to claims portfolios. The package creates a class Claims whose objective is to store claims and premiums, on which different treaties can be applied. A statistical analysis can then be applied to measure the impact of reinsurance, producing a table or graphical output. This package can be used for estimating the impact of reinsurance on several portfolios or for pricing treaties through statistical analysis. Documentation for the implemented methods can be found in "Reinsurance: Actuarial and Statistical Aspects" by Hansjöerg Albrecher, Jan Beirlant, Jozef L. Teugels (2017, ISBN: 978-0-470-77268-3) and "REINSURANCE: A Basic Guide to Facultative and Treaty Reinsurance" by Munich Re (2010) <https://www.munichre.com/site/mram/get/documents_E96160999/mram/assetpool.mr_america/PDFs/3_Publications/reinsurance_basic_guide.pdf>.

Flexible framework for ecological restoration planning. It aims to identify priority areas for restoration efforts using optimization algorithms (based on Justeau-Allaire et al. 2021 <doi:10.1111/1365-2664.13803>). Priority areas can be identified by maximizing landscape indices, such as the effective mesh size (Jaeger 2000 <doi:10.1023/A:1008129329289>), or the integral index of connectivity (Pascual-Hortal & Saura 2006 <doi:10.1007/s10980-006-0013-z>). Additionally, constraints can be used to ensure that priority areas exhibit particular characteristics (e.g., ensure that particular places are not selected for restoration, ensure that priority areas form a single contiguous network). Furthermore, multiple near-optimal solutions can be generated to explore multiple options in restoration planning. The package leverages the Choco-solver software to perform optimization using constraint programming (CP) techniques (<https://choco-solver.org/>).

BEAST is a Bayesian estimator of abrupt change, seasonality, and trend for decomposing univariate time series and 1D sequential data. Interpretation of time series depends on model choice; different models can yield contrasting or contradicting estimates of patterns, trends, and mechanisms. BEAST alleviates this by abandoning the single-best-model paradigm and instead using Bayesian model averaging over many competing decompositions. It detects and characterizes abrupt changes (changepoints, breakpoints, structural breaks, joinpoints), cyclic or seasonal variation, and nonlinear trends. BEAST not only detects when changes occur but also quantifies how likely the changes are true. It estimates not just piecewise linear trends but also arbitrary nonlinear trends. BEAST is generically applicable to any real-valued time series, such as those from remote sensing, economics, climate science, ecology, hydrology, and other environmental and biological systems. Example applications include identifying regime shifts in ecological data, mapping forest disturbance and land degradation from satellite image time series, detecting market trends in economic indicators, pinpointing anomalies and extreme events in climate records, and analyzing system dynamics in biological time series. Details are given in Zhao et al. (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.rse.2019.04.034>.

This tool proposes a new ranking algorithm that utilizes a "Y*WAASB" biplot generated by the metan'. The aim of the current package is to effectively distinguish the top-ranked genotypes in MET (Multi-Environmental Trials). For a detailed explanation of the process of obtaining "WAASB", "WAASBY" indices, and a "Y*WAASB" biplot, refer to the manual included in this package as well as the study by Olivoto & Lúcio (2020) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13384>. In this context, "WAASB" refers to the "Weighted Average of Absolute Scores" provided by Olivoto et al. (2019) <doi:10.2134/agronj2019.03.0220>, which quantifies the stability of genotypes across different environments using linear mixed-effect models. To run the package, you need to extract the "WAASB" and "WAASBY" coefficients using the metan and apply them. This tool utilizes PCA (Principal Component Analysis) and differentiates the entries which may be genotypes, hybrids, varieties, etc using "WAASB", "WAASBY", and a combination of the specified trait and WAASB index.

These tools were created to test map-scale hypotheses about trends in large remotely sensed data sets but any data with spatial and temporal variation can be analyzed. Tests are conducted using the PARTS method for analyzing spatially autocorrelated time series (Ives et al., 2021: <doi:10.1016/j.rse.2021.112678>). The method's unique approach can handle extremely large data sets that other spatiotemporal models cannot, while still appropriately accounting for spatial and temporal autocorrelation. This is done by partitioning the data into smaller chunks, analyzing chunks separately and then combining the separate analyses into a single, correlated test of the map-scale hypotheses.

Traditional noise filtering methods aim at removing noisy samples from a classification dataset. This package adapts classic and recent filtering techniques for use in regression problems, and it also incorporates methods specifically designed for regression data. In order to do this, it uses approaches proposed in the specialized literature, such as Martin et al. (2021) [<doi:10.1109/ACCESS.2021.3123151>] and Arnaiz-Gonzalez et al. (2016) [<doi:10.1016/j.eswa.2015.12.046>]. Thus, the goal of the implemented noise filters is to eliminate samples with noise in regression datasets.
