This package provides a method for prediction of environmental conditions based on transcriptome data linked with the environmental gradients. This package provides functions to overview gene-environment relationships, to construct the prediction model, and to predict environmental conditions where the transcriptomes were generated. This package can quest for candidate genes for the model construction even in non-model organisms transcriptomes without any genetic information.

Computes feature-specific R-squared (R2) contributions for boosting tree models using a Shapley-value-based decomposition of the total R-squared in polynomial time. Supports models fitted with XGBoost', LightGBM', and CatBoost', with optimized backend-specific implementations and cached tree summaries suitable for large-scale problems. Multiple visualization tools are included for interpreting and communicating feature contributions. The methodology is described in Jiang, Zhang, and Zhang (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2407.03515>. Optional CatBoost support uses the R package catboost', which is not distributed on CRAN; installation instructions and released binaries are provided by the CatBoost project at <https://catboost.ai/docs/en/concepts/r-installation>.

Includes original implementations of Laver', Benoit', and Garry's (2003) <doi:10.1017/S0003055403000698>, Wordscores model, the Perry and Benoit (2017) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1710.08963> class affinity scaling model, and the Slapin and Proksch (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-5907.2008.00338.x> wordfish model, as well as methods for correspondence analysis, latent semantic analysis, and fast Naive Bayes and linear SVMs specially designed for sparse textual data.

We implement an adaptation of Jiang & Zeng's (1995) <doi:10.1093/genetics/140.3.1111> likelihood ratio test for testing the null hypothesis of pleiotropy against the alternative hypothesis, two separate quantitative trait loci. The test differs from that in Jiang & Zeng (1995) and that in Tian et al. (2016) <doi:10.1534/genetics.115.183624> in that our test accommodates multiparental populations.

This package provides different functions for quantifying qualitative survey data. It supports the Carlson-Parkin method, the regression approach, the balance approach and the conditional expectations method.

This function performs QR factorization without pivoting to a real or complex matrix. It is based on Anderson. E. and ten others (1999) "LAPACK Users Guide". Third Edition. SIAM.

This package provides a tool that can be customized to aid in the clean up of ecological data collected using quadrats and can crop quadrats to ensure comparability between quadrats collected under different methodologies.

This package implements the Quantile Autoregressive Distributed Lag (QADF) unit root test proposed by Koenker and Xiao (2004) <doi:10.1198/016214504000001114>. The test examines unit root behaviour across the conditional distribution of a time series using quantile regression, providing a richer characterisation of persistence than standard ADF tests. Critical values follow Hansen (1995) <doi:10.1017/S0266466600009713>. Lag order selection is supported via AIC, BIC, or the t-statistic sequential testing approach.

Supports risk assessors in performing the entry step of the quantitative Pest Risk Assessment. It allows the estimation of the amount of a plant pest entering a risk assessment area (in terms of founder populations) through the calculation of the imported commodities that could be potential pathways of pest entry, and the development of a pathway model. Two Shiny apps based on the functionalities of the package are included, that simplify the process of assessing the risk of entry of plant pests. The approach is based on the work of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA PLH Panel et al., 2018) <doi:10.2903/j.efsa.2018.5350>.

This package provides a high-level pipeline that simplifies text classification into three streamlined steps: preprocessing, model training, and standardized prediction. It unifies the interface for multiple algorithms (including glmnet', ranger', xgboost', and naivebayes') and memory-efficient sparse matrix vectorization methods (Bag-of-Words, Term Frequency, TF-IDF, and Binary). Users can go from raw text to a fully evaluated sentiment model, complete with ROC-optimized thresholds, in just a few function calls. The resulting model artifact automatically aligns the vocabulary of new datasets during the prediction phase, safely appending predicted classes and probability matrices directly to the user's original dataframe to preserve metadata.

Plotting functions for visualising textual data. Extends quanteda and related packages with plot methods designed specifically for text data, textual statistics, and models fit to textual data.

This package provides several methods for computing the Quantile Treatment Effect (QTE) and Quantile Treatment Effect on the Treated (QTT). The main cases covered are (i) Treatment is randomly assigned, (ii) Treatment is as good as randomly assigned after conditioning on some covariates (also called conditional independence or selection on observables) using the methods developed in Firpo (2007) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0262.2007.00738.x>, (iii) Identification is based on a Difference in Differences assumption (several varieties are available in the package e.g. Athey and Imbens (2006) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0262.2006.00668.x> Callaway and Li (2019) <doi:10.3982/QE935>, Callaway, Li, and Oka (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2018.06.008>).

This package produces quality scores for each of the US companies from the Russell 3000, following the approach described in "Quality Minus Junk" (Asness, Frazzini, & Pedersen, 2013) <http://www.aqr.com/library/working-papers/quality-minus-junk>. The package includes datasets for users who wish to view the most recently uploaded quality scores. It also provides tools to automatically gather relevant financials and stock price information, allowing users to update their data and customize their universe for further analysis.

This package provides a brms'-like interface for fitting Bayesian regression models using INLA (Integrated Nested Laplace Approximations) and TMB (Template Model Builder). The package offers faster model fitting while maintaining familiar brms syntax and output formats. Supports fixed and mixed effects models, multiple probability distributions, conditional effects plots, and posterior predictive checks with summary methods compatible with brms'. TMB integration provides fast ordinal regression capabilities. Implements methods adapted from emmeans for marginal means estimation and bayestestR for Bayesian inference assessment. Methods are based on Rue et al. (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2008.00700.x>, Kristensen et al. (2016) <doi:10.18637/jss.v070.i05>, Lenth (2016) <doi:10.18637/jss.v069.i01>, Bürkner (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v080.i01>, Makowski et al.

QuantLib bindings are provided for R using Rcpp via an evolved version of the initial header-only Quantuccia project offering an subset of QuantLib (now maintained separately just for the calendaring subset). See the included file AUTHORS for a full list of contributors to QuantLib (and hence also Quantuccia').

Non-parametric methods as local normal regression, polynomial local regression and penalized cubic B-splines regression are used to estimate quantiles curves. See Fan and Gijbels (1996) <doi:10.1201/9780203748725> and Perperoglou et al.(2019) <doi:10.1186/s12874-019-0666-3>.

Clustered set-relational data in Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) can have a hierarchical structure, a panel structure or repeated cross sections. QCAcluster allows researchers to supplement the analysis of pooled the data with a differentiated perspective focusing on selected partitions of the data. The pooled data can be partitioned along the dimensions of the clustered data (individual cross sections or time series) to perform partition-specific truth table minimization. Empirical researchers can further calculate the weight that each partition has on the parameters of the pooled solution and the diversity of the cases under analysis within and across partitions (see <https://ingorohlfing.github.io/QCAcluster/>).

Evaluates moments of ratios (and products) of quadratic forms in normal variables, specifically using recursive algorithms developed by Bao and Kan (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2013.03.002> and Hillier et al. (2014) <doi:10.1017/S0266466613000364>. Also provides distribution, quantile, and probability density functions of simple ratios of quadratic forms in normal variables with several algorithms. Originally developed as a supplement to Watanabe (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00285-023-01930-8> for evaluating average evolvability measures in evolutionary quantitative genetics, but can be used for a broader class of statistics. Generating functions for these moments are also closely related to the top-order zonal and invariant polynomials of matrix arguments.
