This package provides a flexible framework for definition and application of time/depth- based rules for sets of parameters for single grains that can be used to create artificial sediment profiles. Such profiles can be used for virtual sample preparation and synthetic, for instance, luminescence measurements.

Spatial downscaling of climate data (Global Circulation Models/Regional Climate Models) using quantile-quantile bias correction technique.

This package provides tools for the integration and exploration of data tables measured on the same set of observational units. The package includes methods to assess similarities among tables, extract common patterns across variable blocks, and create visual summaries that highlight shared structures in multiblock data.

This package contains functions to perform various models and methods for test equating (Kolen and Brennan, 2014 <doi:10.1007/978-1-4939-0317-7> ; Gonzalez and Wiberg, 2017 <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-51824-4> ; von Davier et. al, 2004 <doi:10.1007/b97446>). It currently implements the traditional mean, linear and equipercentile equating methods. Both IRT observed-score and true-score equating are also supported, as well as the mean-mean, mean-sigma, Haebara and Stocking-Lord IRT linking methods. It also supports newest methods such that local equating, kernel equating (using Gaussian, logistic, Epanechnikov, uniform and adaptive kernels) with presmoothing, and IRT parameter linking methods based on asymmetric item characteristic functions. Functions to obtain both standard error of equating (SEE) and standard error of equating differences between two equating functions (SEED) are also implemented for the kernel method of equating.

Wrapper for the non-validating SQL parser Python module sqlparse <https://github.com/andialbrecht/sqlparse>. It allows parsing, splitting, and formatting SQL statements.

This package creates stratum orthogonal arrays (also known as strong orthogonal arrays). These are arrays with more levels per column than the typical orthogonal array, and whose low order projections behave like orthogonal arrays, when collapsing levels to coarser strata. Details are described in Groemping (2022) "A unifying implementation of stratum (aka strong) orthogonal arrays" <http://www1.bht-berlin.de/FB_II/reports/Report-2022-002.pdf>.

This is an all-encompassing suite to facilitate the simulation of so-called quantities of interest by way of a multivariate normal distribution of the regression model's coefficients and variance-covariance matrix.

Regression-based ranking of pathogen strains with respect to their contributions to natural epidemics, using demographic and genetic data sampled in the curse of the epidemics. This package also includes the GMCPIC test.

The developed function generates soil salinity indices using satellite data, utilizing multiple spectral bands such as Blue, Green, Red, Near-Infrared (NIR), and Shortwave Infrared (SWIR1, SWIR2). It computes 24 different salinity indices crucial for monitoring and analyzing salt-affected soils efficiently. For more details see, Rani, et al. (2022). <DOI: 10.1007/s12517-022-09682-3>. One of the key features of the developed function is its flexibility. Users can provide any combination of the required spectral bands, and the function will automatically calculate only the relevant indices based on the available data. This dynamic capability ensures that users can maximize the utility of their data without the need for all spectral bands, making the package versatile and user-friendly. Outputs are provided as GeoTIFF file format, facilitating easy integration with GIS workflows.

Automatically sets the value of options("width") when the terminal emulator is resized. The functions of this package only work if R is compiled for Unix systems and it is running interactively in a terminal emulator.

Analyse light spectra for visual and non-visual (often called melanopic) needs, wrapped up in a Shiny App. Spectran allows for the import of spectra in various CSV forms but also provides a wide range of example spectra and even the creation of own spectral power distributions. The goal of the app is to provide easy access and a visual overview of the spectral calculations underlying common parameters used in the field. It is thus ideal for educational purposes or the creation of presentation ready graphs in lighting research and application. Spectran uses equations and action spectra described in CIE S026 (2018) <doi:10.25039/S026.2018>, DIN/TS 5031-100 (2021) <doi:10.31030/3287213>, and ISO/CIE 23539 (2023) <doi:10.25039/IS0.CIE.23539.2023>.

Basic and model-based soil physical analyses.

The number of studies involving correlated traits and the availability of tools to handle this type of data has increased considerably in the last decade. With such a demand, we need tools for testing hypotheses related to single and multi-trait (correlated) phenotypes based on many genetic settings. Thus, we implemented various options for simulation of pleiotropy and Linkage Disequilibrium under additive, dominance and epistatic models. The simulation currently takes a marker data set as an input and then uses it for simulating multiple traits as described in Fernandes and Lipka (2020) <doi:10.1186/s12859-020-03804-y>.

Traditional methods for analyzing single cell RNA-seq datasets focus solely on gene expression, but this package introduces a novel approach that goes beyond this limitation. Using Gene Ontology terms as features, the package allows for the functional profile of cell populations, and comparison within and between datasets from the same or different species. Our approach enables the discovery of previously unrecognized functional similarities and differences between cell types and has demonstrated success in identifying cell types functional correspondence even between evolutionarily distant species.

PAM (Partitioning Around Medoids) algorithm application to samples of single cell sequencing techniques with a high number of cells (as many as the computer memory allows). The package uses a binary format to store matrices (either full, sparse or symmetric) in files written in the disk that can contain any data type (not just double) which allows its manipulation when memory is sufficient to load them as int or float, but not as double. The PAM implementation is done in parallel, using several/all the cores of the machine, if it has them. This package shares a great part of its code with packages jmatrix and parallelpam but their functionality is included here so there is no need to install them.

Network meta-analysis for survival outcome data often involves several studies only involve dichotomized outcomes (e.g., the numbers of event and sample sizes of individual arms). To combine these different outcome data, Woods et al. (2010) <doi:10.1186/1471-2288-10-54> proposed a Bayesian approach using complicated hierarchical models. Besides, frequentist approaches have been alternative standard methods for the statistical analyses of network meta-analysis, and the methodology has been well established. We proposed an easy-to-implement method for the network meta-analysis based on the frequentist framework in Noma and Maruo (2025) <doi:10.1101/2025.01.23.25321051>. This package involves some convenient functions to implement the simple synthesis method.

Documentation and prototypes for the earliest (circa 2010) open-source effort to reverse engineer the sas7bdat file format. The package includes a prototype reader for sas7bdat files. However, newer packages may contain more robust readers for sas7bdat files.

Automatically replaces "misspelled" words in a character vector based on their string distance from a list of words sorted by their frequency in a corpus. The default word list provided in the package comes from the Corpus of Contemporary American English. Uses the Jaro-Winkler distance metric for string similarity as implemented in van der Loo (2014) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2014-011>. The word frequency data is derived from Davies (2008-) "The Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA)" <https://www.english-corpora.org/coca/>.

Identifying cell types based on expression profiles is a pillar of single cell analysis. scROSHI identifies cell types based on expression profiles of single cell analysis by utilizing previously obtained cell type specific gene sets. It takes into account the hierarchical nature of cell type relationship and does not require training or annotated data. A detailed description of the method can be found at: Prummer, Bertolini, Bosshard, Barkmann, Yates, Boeva, The Tumor Profiler Consortium, Stekhoven, and Singer (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.04.05.487176>.

This package provides a statistical learning method to simultaneously predict a range of target phenotypes using codified and natural language processing (NLP)-derived Electronic Health Record (EHR) data. See Ahuja et al (2020) JAMIA <doi:10.1093/jamia/ocaa079> for details.

Adds support for R startup configuration via .Renviron.d and .Rprofile.d directories in addition to .Renviron and .Rprofile files. This makes it possible to keep private / secret environment variables separate from other environment variables. It also makes it easier to share specific startup settings by simply copying a file to a directory.

This package implements the SE-test for equivalence according to Hoffelder et al. (2015) <DOI:10.1080/10543406.2014.920344>. The SE-test for equivalence is a multivariate two-sample equivalence test. Distance measure of the test is the sum of standardized differences between the expected values or in other words: the sum of effect sizes (SE) of all components of the two multivariate samples. The test is an asymptotically valid test for normally distributed data (see Hoffelder et al.,2015). The function SE.EQ() implements the SE-test for equivalence according to Hoffelder et al. (2015). The function SE.EQ.dissolution.profiles() implements a variant of the SE-test for equivalence for similarity analyses of dissolution profiles as mentioned in Suarez-Sharp et al.(2020) <DOI:10.1208/s12248-020-00458-9>). The equivalence margin used in SE.EQ.dissolution.profiles() is analogically defined as for the T2EQ approach according to Hoffelder (2019) <DOI:10.1002/bimj.201700257>) by means of a systematic shift in location of 10 [\% of label claim] of both dissolution profile populations. SE.EQ.dissolution.profiles() checks whether the weighted mean of the differences of the expected values of both dissolution profile populations is statistically significantly smaller than 10 [\% of label claim]. The weights are built up by the inverse variances.
