The Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S) statistic is a standard method to measure the model strength for credit risk scoring models. This package calculates the Kâ S statistic and plots the true-positive rate and false-positive rate to measure the model strength. This package was written with the credit marketer, who uses risk models in conjunction with his campaigns. The users could read more details from Thrasher (1992) <doi:10.1002/dir.4000060408> and pyks <https://pypi.org/project/pyks/>.

Facilitates efficient polygon search using kd trees. Coordinate level spatial data can be aggregated to higher geographical identities like census blocks, ZIP codes or police district boundaries. This process requires mapping each point in the given data set to a particular identity of the desired geographical hierarchy. Unless efficient data structures are used, this can be a daunting task. The operation point.in.polygon() from the package sp is computationally expensive. Here, we exploit kd-trees as efficient nearest neighbor search algorithm to dramatically reduce the effective number of polygons being searched.

Univariate and multivariate methods to analyze randomized response (RR) survey designs (e.g., Warner, S. L. (1965). Randomized response: A survey technique for eliminating evasive answer bias. Journal of the American Statistical Association, 60, 63â 69, <doi:10.2307/2283137>). Besides univariate estimates of true proportions, RR variables can be used for correlations, as dependent variable in a logistic regression (with or without random effects), or as predictors in a linear regression (Heck, D. W., & Moshagen, M. (2018). RRreg: An R package for correlation and regression analyses of randomized response data. Journal of Statistical Software, 85(2), 1â 29, <doi:10.18637/jss.v085.i02>). For simulations and the estimation of statistical power, RR data can be generated according to several models. The implemented methods also allow to test the link between continuous covariates and dishonesty in cheating paradigms such as the coin-toss or dice-roll task (Moshagen, M., & Hilbig, B. E. (2017). The statistical analysis of cheating paradigms. Behavior Research Methods, 49, 724â 732, <doi:10.3758/s13428-016-0729-x>).

Automatically flags common spatial errors in biological collection data using metadata and specialists information. RuHere implements a workflow to manage occurrence data through six steps: dataset merging, metadata flagging, validation against expert-derived distribution maps, visualization of flagged records, and sampling bias exploration. It specifically integrates specialist-curated range information to identify geographic errors and introductions that often escape standard automated validation procedures. For details on the methodology, see: Trindade & Caron (2026) <doi:10.64898/2026.02.02.703373>.

Bindings to kernel methods for enforcing security restrictions. AppArmor can apply mandatory access control (MAC) policies on a given task (process) via security profiles with detailed ACL definitions. In addition this package implements bindings for setting process resource limits (rlimit), uid, gid, affinity and priority. The high level R function eval.secure builds on these methods to perform dynamic sandboxing: it evaluates a single R expression within a temporary fork which acts as a sandbox by enforcing fine grained restrictions without affecting the main R process. A portable version of this function is now available in the unix package.

An algorithm which can be used to determine an objective threshold for signal-noise separation in large random matrices (correlation matrices, mutual information matrices, network adjacency matrices) is provided. The package makes use of the results of Random Matrix Theory (RMT). The algorithm increments a suppositional threshold monotonically, thereby recording the eigenvalue spacing distribution of the matrix. According to RMT, that distribution undergoes a characteristic change when the threshold properly separates signal from noise. By using the algorithm, the modular structure of a matrix - or of the corresponding network - can be unraveled.

Generate basic charts either by custom applications, or from a small script launched from the system console, or within the R console. Two ASCII text files are necessary: (1) The graph parameters file, which name is passed to the function rplotengine()'. The user can specify the titles, choose the type of the graph, graph output formats (e.g. png, eps), proportion of the X-axis and Y-axis, position of the legend, whether to show or not a grid at the background, etc. (2) The data to be plotted, which name is specified as a parameter ('data_filename') in the previous file. This data file has a tabulated format, with a single character (e.g. tab) between each column. Optionally, the file could include data columns for showing confidence intervals.

In repeated measures studies with extreme large or small values it is common that the subjects measurements on average are closer to the mean of the basic population. Interpreting possible changes in the mean in such situations can lead to biased results since the values were not randomly selected, they come from truncated sampling. This method allows to estimate the range of means where treatment effects are likely to occur when regression toward the mean is present. Ostermann, T., Willich, Stefan N. & Luedtke, Rainer. (2008). Regression toward the mean - a detection method for unknown population mean based on Mee and Chua's algorithm. BMC Medical Research Methodology.<doi:10.1186/1471-2288-8-52>. Acknowledgments: We would like to acknowledge "Lena Roth" and "Nico Steckhan" for the package's initial updates (Q3 2024) and continued supervision and guidance. Both have contributed to discussing and integrating these methods into the package, ensuring they are up-to-date and contextually relevant.

REDCap Data Management - REDCap (Research Electronic Data CAPture; <https://projectredcap.org>) is a web application developed at Vanderbilt University, designed for creating and managing online surveys and databases and the REDCap API is an interface that allows external applications to connect to REDCap remotely, and is used to programmatically retrieve or modify project data or settings within REDCap, such as importing or exporting data. REDCapDM is an R package that allows users to manage data exported directly from REDCap or using an API connection. This package includes several functions designed for pre-processing data, generating reports of queries such as outliers or missing values, and following up on previously identified queries.

Fast design of risk parity portfolios for financial investment. The goal of the risk parity portfolio formulation is to equalize or distribute the risk contributions of the different assets, which is missing if we simply consider the overall volatility of the portfolio as in the mean-variance Markowitz portfolio. In addition to the vanilla formulation, where the risk contributions are perfectly equalized subject to no shortselling and budget constraints, many other formulations are considered that allow for box constraints and shortselling, as well as the inclusion of additional objectives like the expected return and overall variance. See vignette for a detailed documentation and comparison, with several illustrative examples. The package is based on the papers: Y. Feng, and D. P. Palomar (2015). SCRIP: Successive Convex Optimization Methods for Risk Parity Portfolio Design. IEEE Trans. on Signal Processing, vol. 63, no. 19, pp. 5285-5300. <doi:10.1109/TSP.2015.2452219>. F.
