The methods discussed in this package are new non-parametric methods based on sequential normal scores SNS (Conover et al (2017) <doi:10.1080/07474946.2017.1360091>), designed for sequences of observations, usually time series data, which may occur singly or in batches, and may be univariate or multivariate. These methods are designed to detect changes in the process, which may occur as changes in location (mean or median), changes in scale (standard deviation, or variance), or other changes of interest in the distribution of the observations, over the time observed. They usually apply to large data sets, so computations need to be simple enough to be done in a reasonable time on a computer, and easily updated as each new observation (or batch of observations) becomes available. Some examples and more detail in SNS is presented in the work by Conover et al (2019) <arXiv:1901.04443>.

This package provides tools for designing spatially explicit capture-recapture studies of animal populations. This is primarily a simulation manager for package secr'. Extensions in version 2.5.0 include costing and evaluation of detector spacing.

This package implements the calibrated sensitivity analysis approach for matched observational studies. Our sensitivity analysis framework views matched sets as drawn from a super-population. The unmeasured confounder is modeled as a random variable. We combine matching and model-based covariate-adjustment methods to estimate the treatment effect. The hypothesized unmeasured confounder enters the picture as a missing covariate. We adopt a state-of-art Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm to handle this missing covariate problem in generalized linear models (GLMs). As our method also estimates the effect of each observed covariate on the outcome and treatment assignment, we are able to calibrate the unmeasured confounder to observed covariates.

Fast and efficient sampling from general univariate probability density functions. Implements a rejection sampling approach designed to take advantage of modern CPU caches and minimise evaluation of the target density for most samples. Many standard densities are internally implemented in C for high performance, with general user defined densities also supported. A paper describing the methodology will be released soon.

This package provides an S4 class for representing and interacting with sparse plus rank matrices. At the moment the implementation is quite spare, but the plan is eventually subclass Matrix objects.

This package implements estimation methods for shrinkage covariance matrices using user-specified covariance targets. The covariance target is a structured matrix towards which the unbiased sample covariance is shrunk, optionally incorporating prior knowledge. Shrinkage intensity is computed analytically. The method is described and applied to microarray gene expression data in Jelizarow et al. (2010) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btq323>.

Slack <https://slack.com/> provides a service for teams to collaborate by sharing messages, images, links, files and more. Functions are provided that make it possible to interact with the Slack platform API'. When you need to share information or data from R, rather than resort to copy/ paste in e-mails or other services like Skype <https://www.skype.com/en/>, you can use this package to send well-formatted output from multiple R objects and expressions to all teammates at the same time with little effort. You can also send images from the current graphics device, R objects, and upload files.

Introduction to some novel accurate hybrid methods of geostatistical and machine learning methods for spatial predictive modelling. It contains two commonly used geostatistical methods, two machine learning methods, four hybrid methods and two averaging methods. For each method, two functions are provided. One function is for assessing the predictive errors and accuracy of the method based on cross-validation. The other one is for generating spatial predictions using the method. For details please see: Li, J., Potter, A., Huang, Z., Daniell, J. J. and Heap, A. (2010) <https://ecat.ga.gov.au/geonetwork/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/71407> Li, J., Heap, A.

This package provides functions for the evaluation of surrogate endpoints when both the surrogate and the true endpoint are failure time variables. The approaches implemented are: (1) the two-step approach (Burzykowski et al, 2001) <DOI:10.1111/1467-9876.00244> with a copula model (Clayton, Plackett, Hougaard) at the first step and either a linear regression of log-hazard ratios at the second step (either adjusted or not for measurement error); (2) mixed proportional hazard models estimated via mixed Poisson GLM (Rotolo et al, 2017 <DOI:10.1177/0962280217718582>).

Spatial forecast verification refers to verifying weather forecasts when the verification set (forecast and observations) is on a spatial field, usually a high-resolution gridded spatial field. Most of the functions here require the forecast and observed fields to be gridded and on the same grid. For a thorough review of most of the methods in this package, please see Gilleland et al. (2009) <doi: 10.1175/2009WAF2222269.1> and for a tutorial on some of the main functions available here, see Gilleland (2022) <doi: 10.5065/4px3-5a05>.

This package provides drop-in replacements for functions from the stringr package, with the same user interface. These functions have no external dependencies and can be copied directly into your package code using the staticimports package.

This algorithm conducts variable selection in the classification setting. It repeatedly subsamples variables and runs linear discriminant analysis (LDA) on the subsampled variables. Variables are scored based on the AUC and the t-statistics. Variables then enter a competition and the semi-finalist variables will be evaluated in a final round of LDA classification. The algorithm then outputs a list of variable selected. Qiao, Sun and Fan (2017) <http://people.math.binghamton.edu/qiao/swa.html>.

The price action at any given time is determined by investor sentiment and market conditions. Although there is no established principle, over a long period of time, things often move with a certain periodicity. This is sometimes referred to as anomaly. The seasonPlot() function in this package calculates and visualizes the average value of price movements over a year for any given period. In addition, the monthly increase or decrease in price movement is represented with a colored background. This seasonPlot() function can use the same symbols as the quantmod package (e.g. ^IXIC, ^DJI, SPY, BTC-USD, and ETH-USD etc).
