This package provides tools for a wavelet-based approach to analyzing spatial synchrony, principally in ecological data. Some tools will be useful for studying community synchrony. See, for instance, Sheppard et al (2016) <doi: 10.1038/NCLIMATE2991>, Sheppard et al (2017) <doi: 10.1051/epjnbp/2017000>, Sheppard et al (2019) <doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1006744>.
Takes Poisson or Binomial discrete spatial data and runs a Gibbs sampler for a variety of Spatiotemporal Conditional Autoregressive (CAR) models. Includes measures to prevent estimate over-smoothing through a restriction of model informativeness for select models. Also provides tools to load output and get median estimates. Implements methods from Besag, York, and Mollié (1991) "Bayesian image restoration, with two applications in spatial statistics" <doi:10.1007/BF00116466>, Gelfand and Vounatsou (2003) "Proper multivariate conditional autoregressive models for spatial data analysis" <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/4.1.11>, Quick et al. (2017) "Multivariate spatiotemporal modeling of age-specific stroke mortality" <doi:10.1214/17-AOAS1068>, and Quick et al.

Compute price indices using various Hedonic and multilateral methods, including Laspeyres, Paasche, Fisher, and HMTS (Hedonic Multilateral Time series re-estimation with splicing). The central function calculate_hedonic_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>. For broader methodological context, see Eurostat (2013, ISBN:978-92-79-25984-5, <doi:10.2785/34007>).
This package allows estimation and modelling of flight costs in animal (vertebrate) flight, implementing the aerodynamic power model. Flight performance is estimated based on basic morphological measurements such as body mass, wingspan and wing area. Afpt can be used to make predictions on how animals should adjust their flight behaviour and wingbeat kinematics to varying flight conditions.

broken symbolic links,
empty files and directories,
files with broken user and/or group ID.
BEER implements a Bayesian model for analyzing phage-immunoprecipitation sequencing (PhIP-seq) data. Given a PhIPData object, BEER returns posterior probabilities of enriched antibody responses, point estimates for the relative fold-change in comparison to negative control samples, and more. Additionally, BEER provides a convenient implementation for using edgeR to identify enriched antibody responses.
This package contains the function to assess the batch sourcs by fitting all "sources" as random effects including two-way interaction terms in the Mixed Model(depends on lme4 package) to selected principal components, which were obtained from the original data correlation matrix. This package accompanies the book "Batch Effects and Noise in Microarray Experiements, chapter 12.
In order to make Arrow Database Connectivity ('ADBC <https://arrow.apache.org/adbc/>) accessible from R, an interface compliant with the DBI package is provided, using driver back-ends that are implemented in the adbcdrivermanager framework. This enables interacting with database systems using the Arrow data format, thereby offering an efficient alternative to ODBC for analytical applications.
This package provides a method to filter correlation and covariance matrices by averaging bootstrapped filtered hierarchical clustering and boosting. See Ch. Bongiorno and D. Challet, Covariance matrix filtering with bootstrapped hierarchies (2020) <arXiv:2003.05807> and Ch. Bongiorno and D. Challet, Reactive Global Minimum Variance Portfolios with k-BAHC covariance cleaning (2020) <arXiv:2005.08703>.
The main function generateDataset() processes a user-supplied .R file that contains metadata parameters in order to generate actual data. The metadata parameters have to be structured in the form of metadata objects, the format of which is outlined in the package vignette. This approach allows to generate artificial data in a transparent and reproducible manner.
Automated compound deconvolution, alignment across samples, and identification of metabolites by spectral library matching in Gas Chromatography - Mass spectrometry (GC-MS) untargeted metabolomics.

(2016) <doi:10.1021/acs.analchem.6b02927>.
An implementation of extended state-space SIR models developed by Song Lab at UM school of Public Health. There are several functions available by 1) including a time-varying transmission modifier, 2) adding a time-dependent quarantine compartment, 3) adding a time-dependent antibody-immunization compartment.

Unsupervised, multivariate, binary clustering for meaningful annotation of data, taking into account the uncertainty in the data. A specific constructor for trajectory analysis in movement ecology yields behavioural annotation of trajectories based on estimated local measures of velocity and turning angle, eventually with solar position covariate as a daytime indicator, ("Expectation-Maximization Binary Clustering for Behavioural Annotation").
Because fungicide resistance is an important phenotypic trait for fungi and oomycetes, it is necessary to have a standardized method of statistically analyzing the Effective Concentration (EC) values. This package is designed for those who are not terribly familiar with R to be able to analyze and plot an entire set of isolates using the drc package.

This package allows extended structural equation model, including dynamic structural equation model. We illustrate the use of our packages with well-known data sets. Therefore, this package are able to handle two serious problems inadmissible solution and factor indeterminacy <doi:10.3390/sym13040657>.

Generate pseudonymous animal names that are delightful and easy to remember like the Likable Leech and the Proud Chickadee. A unique pseudonym can be created for every unique element in a vector or row in a data frame. Pseudonyms can be customized and tracked over time, so that the same input is always assigned the same pseudonym.
