This package provides a collection of methods for the Bayesian estimation of Spatial Probit, Spatial Ordered Probit and Spatial Tobit Models. Original implementations from the works of LeSage and Pace (2009, ISBN: 1420064258) were ported and adjusted for R, as described in Wilhelm and de Matos (2013) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2013-013>.

Fitting a smooth path to a given set of noisy spherical data observed at known time points. It implements a piecewise geodesic curve fitting method on the unit sphere based on a velocity-based penalization scheme. The proposed approach is implemented using the Riemannian block coordinate descent algorithm. To understand the method and algorithm, one can refer to Bak, K. Y., Shin, J. K., & Koo, J. Y. (2023) <doi:10.1080/02664763.2022.2054962> for the case of order 1. Additionally, this package includes various functions necessary for handling spherical data.

Computes the effective range of a smoothing matrix, which is a measure of the distance to which smoothing occurs. This is motivated by the application of spatial splines for adjusting for unmeasured spatial confounding in regression models, but the calculation of effective range can be applied to smoothing matrices in other contexts. For algorithmic details, see Rainey and Keller (2024) "spconfShiny: an R Shiny application..." <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0311440> and Keller and Szpiro (2020) "Selecting a Scale for Spatial Confounding Adjustment" <doi:10.1111/rssa.12556>.

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.

Spatial transcriptomics iterative hierarchical clustering ('stIHC'), is a method for identifying spatial gene co-expression modules, defined as groups of genes with shared spatial expression patterns. The method is applicable across spatial transcriptomics technologies with differing spatial resolution, and provides a framework for investigating the spatial organisation of gene expression in tissues. For further details, see Higgins C., Li J.J., Carey M. <doi:10.1002/qub2.70011>.

Perform association test within linear mixed model framework using score test integrated with Empirical Bayes for genome-wide association study. Firstly, score test was conducted for each marker under linear mixed model framework, taking into account the genetic relatedness and population structure. And then all the potentially associated markers were selected with a less stringent criterion. Finally, all the selected markers were placed into a multi-locus model to identify the true quantitative trait nucleotide.

This package provides functions to generate or sample from all possible splits of features or variables into a number of specified groups. Also computes the best split selection estimator (for low-dimensional data) as defined in Christidis, Van Aelst and Zamar (2019) <arXiv:1812.05678>.

SKIFTI files contain brain imaging data in coordinates across Tract Based Spatial Statistics (TBSS) skeleton, which represent the brain white matter intensity values. skiftiTools provides a unified environment for reading, writing, visualizing and manipulating SKIFTI-format data. It supports the "subsetting", "concatenating", and using data as data.frame for R statistical functions. The SKIFTI data is structured for convenient access to the data and metadata, and includes support for visualizations. For more information see Merisaari et al. (2024) <doi:10.57736/87d2-0608>.

This package provides functions for performing stochastic search variable selection (SSVS) for binary and continuous outcomes and visualizing the results. SSVS is a Bayesian variable selection method used to estimate the probability that individual predictors should be included in a regression model. Using MCMC estimation, the method samples thousands of regression models in order to characterize the model uncertainty regarding both the predictor set and the regression parameters. For details see Bainter, McCauley, Wager, and Losin (2020) Improving practices for selecting a subset of important predictors in psychology: An application to predicting pain, Advances in Methods and Practices in Psychological Science 3(1), 66-80 <DOI:10.1177/2515245919885617>.

This package provides interface to sparsepp - fast, memory efficient hash map. It is derived from Google's excellent sparsehash implementation. We believe sparsepp provides an unparalleled combination of performance and memory usage, and will outperform your compiler's unordered_map on both counts. Only Google's dense_hash_map is consistently faster, at the cost of much greater memory usage (especially when the final size of the map is not known in advance).

This package provides functions for reading and writing Gadget N-body snapshots. The Gadget code is popular in astronomy for running N-body / hydrodynamical cosmological and merger simulations. To find out more about Gadget see the main distribution page at www.mpa-garching.mpg.de/gadget/.

Speeds up the process of loading raw data from MBA (Multiplex Bead Assay) examinations, performs quality control checks, and automatically normalises the data, preparing it for more advanced, downstream tasks. The main objective of the package is to create a simple environment for a user, who does not necessarily have experience with R language. The package is developed within the project PvSTATEM', which is an international project aiming for malaria elimination.

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.

The heterogeneity of spatial data presenting a finite number of categories can be measured via computation of spatial entropy. Functions are available for the computation of the main entropy and spatial entropy measures in the literature. They include the traditional version of Shannon's entropy (Shannon, 1948 <doi:10.1002/j.1538-7305.1948.tb01338.x>), Batty's spatial entropy (Batty, 1974 <doi:10.1111/j.1538-4632.1974.tb01014.x>), O'Neill's entropy (O'Neill et al., 1998 <doi:10.1007/BF00162741>), Li and Reynolds contagion index (Li and Reynolds, 1993 <doi:10.1007/BF00125347>), Karlstrom and Ceccato's entropy (Karlstrom and Ceccato, 2002 <https://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kth:diva-61351>), Leibovici's entropy (Leibovici, 2009 <doi:10.1007/978-3-642-03832-7_24>), Parresol and Edwards entropy (Parresol and Edwards, 2014 <doi:10.3390/e16041842>) and Altieri's entropy (Altieri et al., 2018, <doi:10.1007/s10651-017-0383-1>). Full references for all measures can be found under the topic SpatEntropy'. The package is able to work with lattice and point data. The updated version works with the updated spatstat package (>= 3.0-2).

English is the native language for only 5% of the World population. Also, only 17% of us can understand this text. Moreover, the Latin alphabet is the main one for merely 36% of the total. The early computer era, now a very long time ago, was dominated by the US. Due to the proliferation of the internet, smartphones, social media, and other technologies and communication platforms, this is no longer the case. This package replaces base R string functions (such as grep(), tolower(), sprintf(), and strptime()) with ones that fully support the Unicode standards related to natural language and date-time processing. It also fixes some long-standing inconsistencies, and introduces some new, useful features. Thanks to ICU (International Components for Unicode) and stringi', they are fast, reliable, and portable across different platforms.
