More information about the data is available at <https://italic.units.it/?procedure=base&t=59&c=60>. The API documentation is available at <https://italic.units.it/?procedure=api>.

This package provides methods for genome-wide association studies (GWAS) using ranked set sampling (RSS) designs. The package includes tools for ranked set sample selection, standard and RSS-based association analyses, simulation of genotype and phenotype data, statistical comparison of RSS and simple random sampling (SRS) approaches, visualization of GWAS results, and power analysis under alternative sampling schemes.

Implementations of several robust nonparametric two-sample tests for location or scale differences. The test statistics are based on robust location and scale estimators, e.g. the sample median or the Hodges-Lehmann estimators as described in Fried & Dehling (2011) <doi:10.1007/s10260-011-0164-1>. The p-values can be computed via the permutation principle, the randomization principle, or by using the asymptotic distributions of the test statistics under the null hypothesis, which ensures (approximate) distribution independence of the test decision. To test for a difference in scale, we apply the tests for location difference to transformed observations; see Fried (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2011.02.012>. Random noise on a small range can be added to the original observations in order to hold the significance level on data from discrete distributions. The location tests assume homoscedasticity and the scale tests require the location parameters to be zero.

This package provides several non parametric randomness tests for numeric sequences.

Conversion between attitude representations: DCM, Euler angles, Quaternions, and Euler vectors. Plus conversion between 2 Euler angle set types (xyx, yzy, zxz, xzx, yxy, zyz, xyz, yzx, zxy, xzy, yxz, zyx). Fully vectorized code, with warnings/errors for Euler angles (singularity, out of range, invalid angle order), DCM (orthogonality, not proper, exceeded tolerance to unity determinant) and Euler vectors(not unity). Also quaternion and other useful functions. Based on SpinCalc by John Fuller and SpinConv by Paolo de Leva.

QuantLib bindings are provided for R using Rcpp via an updated variant of the header-only Quantuccia project (put together initially by Peter Caspers) offering an essential subset of QuantLib (and now maintained separately for the calendaring subset). See the included file AUTHORS for a full list of contributors to both QuantLib and Quantuccia'. Note that this package provided an initial viability proof, current work is done (via approximately quarterly releases tracking QuantLib') in the smaller package qlcal which is generally preferred.

This package performs robust estimation and inference when using covariate adjustment and/or covariate-adaptive randomization in randomized clinical trials.

In data science, it is a common practice to compute a series of columns (e.g. features) against a common response vector. Various metrics are provided with efficient computation implemented with Rcpp'.

We utilize approximate Bayesian machinery to fit two-level conjugate hierarchical models on overdispersed Gaussian, Poisson, and Binomial data and evaluates whether the resulting approximate Bayesian interval estimates for random effects meet the nominal confidence levels via frequency coverage evaluation. The data that Rgbp assumes comprise observed sufficient statistic for each random effect, such as an average or a proportion of each group, without population-level data. The approximate Bayesian tool equipped with the adjustment for density maximization produces approximate point and interval estimates for model parameters including second-level variance component, regression coefficients, and random effect. For the Binomial data, the package provides an option to produce posterior samples of all the model parameters via the acceptance-rejection method. The package provides a quick way to evaluate coverage rates of the resultant Bayesian interval estimates for random effects via a parametric bootstrapping, which we call frequency method checking.

Fits standard and random effects latent class models. The single level random effects model is described in Qu et al <doi:10.2307/2533043> and the two level random effects model in Beath and Heller <doi:10.1177/1471082X0800900302>. Examples are given for their use in diagnostic testing.

Includes algorithms to assess research productivity and patterns, such as the h-index and i-index. Cardoso et al. (2022) Cardoso, P., Fukushima, C.S. & Mammola, S. (2022) Quantifying the internationalization and representativeness in research. Trends in Ecology and Evolution, 37: 725-728.

Leverages the functionality of clipboard.js', a JavaScript library for HMTL5-based copy to clipboard from web pages (see <https://clipboardjs.com> for more information), and provides a reactive copy-to-clipboard UI button component, called rclipButton', and a a reactive copy-to-clipboard UI link component, called rclipLink', for shiny R applications.

This package provides a plug in for using WinEdt as an editor for R.

The APT Package Management System provides Debian and Debian-derived Linux systems with a powerful system to resolve package dependencies. This package offers access directly from R. This can only work on a system with a suitable libapt-pkg-dev installation so functionality is curtailed if such a library is not found.

The ropenblas package (<https://prdm0.github.io/ropenblas/>) is useful for users of any GNU/Linux distribution. It will be possible to download, compile and link the OpenBLAS library (<https://www.openblas.net/>) with the R language, always by the same procedure, regardless of the GNU/Linux distribution used. With the ropenblas package it is possible to download, compile and link the latest version of the OpenBLAS library even the repositories of the GNU/Linux distribution used do not include the latest versions of OpenBLAS'. If of interest, older versions of the OpenBLAS library may be considered. Linking R with an optimized version of BLAS (<https://netlib.org/blas/>) may improve the computational performance of R code. The OpenBLAS library is an optimized implementation of BLAS that can be easily linked to R with the ropenblas package.

Some survey participants tend to respond carelessly which complicates data analysis. This package provides functions that make it easier to explore responses and identify those that may be problematic. See Gottfried et al. (2022) <doi:10.7275/vyxb-gt24> for more information.
