Future developments will allow for the inclusion of covariates affecting cycle mean and regularity, as well as extra information regarding tracking non-adherence. Main methods to be outlined in a forthcoming paper, with alternative models from Li et al. (2022) <doi:10.1093/jamia/ocab182>.

This package provides functions to calculate and visualise the Regional Consistency Probability (RCP) for single-arm multi-regional clinical trials (MRCTs) using the Effect Retention Approach (ERA). Six endpoint types are supported: continuous, binary, count (negative binomial), time-to-event via hazard ratio, milestone survival, and restricted mean survival time (RMST). For each endpoint, both a closed-form (or semi-analytical) solution and a Monte Carlo simulation approach are implemented. Two consistency evaluation methods are available: Method 1 (effect retention in Region 1 relative to the overall population) and Method 2 (simultaneous positive effect across all regions). Plotting functions generate faceted visualisations of RCP as a function of the regional allocation proportion, overlaying formula and simulation results for direct comparison. The methodology follows the Japanese MHLW guidelines for MRCTs. Abbreviations used: RCP (Regional Consistency Probability), MRCT (Multi-Regional Clinical Trial), RMST (Restricted Mean Survival Time), MHLW (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare).

Simulates data sets in order to explore modeling techniques or better understand data generating processes. The user specifies a set of relationships between covariates, and generates data based on these specifications. The final data sets can represent data from randomized control trials, repeated measure (longitudinal) designs, and cluster randomized trials. Missingness can be generated using various mechanisms (MCAR, MAR, NMAR).

Calculate superior identification index and its extensions. Measure the performance of journals based on how well they could identify the top papers by any index (e.g. citation indices) according to Huang & Yang. (2022) <doi:10.1007/s11192-022-04372-z>.

Estimation, scoring, and plotting functions for the semi-parametric factor model proposed by Liu & Wang (2022) <doi:10.1007/s11336-021-09832-8> and Liu & Wang (2023) <arXiv:2303.10079>. Both the conditional densities of observed responses given the latent factors and the joint density of latent factors are estimated non-parametrically. Functional parameters are approximated by smoothing splines, whose coefficients are estimated by penalized maximum likelihood using an expectation-maximization (EM) algorithm. E- and M-steps can be parallelized on multi-thread computing platforms that support OpenMP'. Both continuous and unordered categorical response variables are supported.

Generate common data forms for complex data suitable for conversions and transmission by decomposition as paths or primitives. Paths are sequentially-linked records, primitives are basic atomic elements and both can model many forms and be grouped into hierarchical structures. The universal models SC0 (structural) and SC (labelled, relational) are composed of edges and can represent any hierarchical form. Specialist models PATH', ARC and TRI provide the most common intermediate forms used for converting from one form to another. The methods are inspired by the simplicial complex <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplicial_complex> and provide intermediate forms that relate spatial data structures to this mathematical construct.

This package provides tools for the simultaneous improvement of multiple traits in plant breeding. Building upon the classical selection index (Smith 1937 <doi:10.1111/j.1469-1809.1936.tb02143.x>) and modern quantitative genetics (Kang 2020 <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-91223-3>), this package calculates classical phenotypic, genomic, marker-assisted, restricted/constrained, and eigen selection indices. It also incorporates multi-stage selection evaluation and stochastic simulations to estimate genetic advance based on economic weights, heritability, and genetic correlations.

Modeling spatial dependencies in dependent variables, extending traditional spatial regression approaches. It allows for the joint modeling of both the mean and the variance of the dependent variable, incorporating semiparametric effects in both models. Based on generalized additive models (GAM), the package enables the inclusion of non-parametric terms while maintaining the classical theoretical framework of spatial regression. Additionally, it implements the Generalized Spatial Autoregression (GSAR) model, which extends classical methods like logistic Spatial Autoregresive Models (SAR), probit Spatial Autoregresive Models (SAR), and Poisson Spatial Autoregresive Models (SAR), offering greater flexibility in modeling spatial dependencies and significantly improving computational efficiency and the statistical properties of the estimators.

This package provides tools for transport planning with an emphasis on spatial transport data and non-motorized modes. The package was originally developed to support the Propensity to Cycle Tool', a publicly available strategic cycle network planning tool (Lovelace et al. 2017) <doi:10.5198/jtlu.2016.862>, but has since been extended to support public transport routing and accessibility analysis (Moreno-Monroy et al. 2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2017.08.012> and routing with locally hosted routing engines such as OSRM (Lowans et al. 2023) <doi:10.1016/j.enconman.2023.117337>. The main functions are for creating and manipulating geographic "desire lines" from origin-destination (OD) data (building on the od package); calculating routes on the transport network locally and via interfaces to routing services such as <https://cyclestreets.net/> (Desjardins et al. 2021) <doi:10.1007/s11116-021-10197-1>; and calculating route segment attributes such as bearing. The package implements the travel flow aggregration method described in Morgan and Lovelace (2020) <doi:10.1177/2399808320942779> and the OD jittering method described in Lovelace et al. (2022) <doi:10.32866/001c.33873>. Further information on the package's aim and scope can be found in the vignettes and in a paper in the R Journal (Lovelace and Ellison 2018) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2018-053>, and in a paper outlining the landscape of open source software for geographic methods in transport planning (Lovelace, 2021) <doi:10.1007/s10109-020-00342-2>.

Supervised latent-variable regression for high-dimensional predictors such as soil reflectance spectra. The model uses an encoder-decoder neural network with a stochastic Gaussian latent representation regularized by a Kullback-Leibler term, and a supervised prediction head trained jointly with the reconstruction objective. The implementation interfaces R with a Python deep-learning backend and provides utilities for training, tuning, and prediction.

Computes segregation indices, including the Index of Dissimilarity, as well as the information-theoretic indices developed by Theil (1971) <isbn:978-0471858454>, namely the Mutual Information Index (M) and Theil's Information Index (H). The M, further described by Mora and Ruiz-Castillo (2011) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9531.2011.01237.x> and Frankel and Volij (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.jet.2010.10.008>, is a measure of segregation that is highly decomposable. The package provides tools to decompose the index by units and groups (local segregation), and by within and between terms. The package also provides a method to decompose differences in segregation as described by Elbers (2021) <doi:10.1177/0049124121986204>. The package includes standard error estimation by bootstrapping, which also corrects for small sample bias. The package also contains functions for visualizing segregation patterns.
