This package implements the Agnostic Fay-Herriot model, an extension of the traditional small area model. In place of normal sampling errors, the sampling error distribution is estimated with a Gaussian process to accommodate a broader class of distributions. This flexibility is most useful in the presence of bounded, multi-modal, or heavily skewed sampling errors.

Create correlation (or partial correlation) matrices. Correlation matrices are formatted with significance stars based on user preferences. Matrices of coefficients, p-values, and number of pairwise observations are returned. Send resultant formatted matrices to the clipboard to be pasted into excel and other programs. A plot method allows users to visualize correlation matrices created with corx'.

The package covers both data from household travel surveys, dictionaries of variables, and the spatial geometries of surveys conducted in different years and across various urban areas in Brazil. For some cities, the package will include enhanced versions of the data sets with variables "harmonized" across different years.
Historic Pell grant data as provided by the US Department of Education. This package contains data about how much pell grant was awarded by which institution in which year. This data comes from the US Department of Education. Raw data can be downloaded from here: <https://www2.ed.gov/finaid/prof/resources/data/pell-institution.html>.
This package provides a method of clustering functional data using subregion information of the curves. It is intended to supplement the fda and fda.usc packages in functional data object clustering. It also facilitates the printing and plotting of the results in a tree format and limits the partitioning candidates into a specific set of subregions.
The SC-SR Algorithm is used to calculate fully non-parametric and self-consistent estimators of the cause-specific failure probabilities in the presence of interval-censoring and possible making of the failure cause in a competing risks environment. In the version 2.0 the function creating the probability matrix from double-censored data is added.

Each additive component function is assumed to obey one of the nine possible shape restrictions: linear, increasing, decreasing, convex, convex increasing, convex decreasing, concave, concave increasing, or concave decreasing. For details, see Chen and Samworth (2016) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12137>.
Create correlation networks using St. Nicolas House Analysis ('SNHA'). The package can be used for visualizing multivariate data similar to Principal Component Analysis or Multidimensional Scaling using a ranking approach. In contrast to MDS and PCA', SNHA uses a network approach to explore interacting variables. For details see Hermanussen et. al. 2021', <doi:10.3390/ijerph18041741>.

The central function calculate_price_index() offers a unified interface for running these methods on structured datasets. This package is designed to support index construction workflows across a wide range of domains â including but not limited to real estate â where quality-adjusted price comparisons over time are essential. The development of this package was funded by Eurostat and Statistics Netherlands (CBS), and carried out by Statistics Netherlands. The HMTS method implemented here is described in Ishaak, Ouwehand and Remøy (2024) <doi:10.1177/0282423X241246617>.
