Implementation of prediction and inference procedures for Synthetic Control methods using least square, lasso, ridge, or simplex-type constraints. Uncertainty is quantified with prediction intervals as developed in Cattaneo, Feng, and Titiunik (2021) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2021.1979561> for a single treated unit and in Cattaneo, Feng, Palomba, and Titiunik (2025) <doi:10.1162/rest_a_01588> for multiple treated units and staggered adoption. More details about the software implementation can be found in Cattaneo, Feng, Palomba, and Titiunik (2025) <doi:10.18637/jss.v113.i01>.

It allows running Praat scripts from R and it provides some wrappers for basic plotting. It also adds support for literate markdown tangling. The package is designed to bring reproducible phonetic research into R.

Computation of sparse portfolios for financial index tracking, i.e., joint selection of a subset of the assets that compose the index and computation of their relative weights (capital allocation). The level of sparsity of the portfolios, i.e., the number of selected assets, is controlled through a regularization parameter. Different tracking measures are available, namely, the empirical tracking error (ETE), downside risk (DR), Huber empirical tracking error (HETE), and Huber downside risk (HDR). See vignette for a detailed documentation and comparison, with several illustrative examples. The package is based on the paper: K. Benidis, Y. Feng, and D. P. Palomar, "Sparse Portfolios for High-Dimensional Financial Index Tracking," IEEE Trans. on Signal Processing, vol. 66, no. 1, pp. 155-170, Jan. 2018. <doi:10.1109/TSP.2017.2762286>.

This package provides functions to combine, normalize and visualize spectral data, and for assembling customizable image grids suitable for publication-quality scientific figures.

Estimates correlation coefficients with associated confidence limits for bivariate, partially censored survival times. Uses the iterative multiple imputation approach proposed by Schemper, Kaider, Wakounig and Heinze (2013) <doi:10.1002/sim.5874>. Provides a scatterplot function to visualize the bivariate distribution, either on the original time scale or as copula.

This package provides the SELF criteria to learn causal structure. Please cite "Ruichu Cai, Jie Qiao, Zhenjie Zhang, Zhifeng Hao. SELF: Structural Equational Embedded Likelihood Framework for Causal Discovery. AAAI. 2018.".

This package provides a topological version of k-NN: An abstract model is build as 2-dimensional self-organising map. Samples of unknown class are predicted by mapping them on the SOM and analysing class membership of neurons in the neighbourhood.

This package provides a mixture model for clustering individuals (or sampling groups) into stocks based on their genetic profile. Here, sampling groups are individuals that are sure to come from the same stock (e.g. breeding adults or larvae). The mixture (log-)likelihood is maximised using the EM-algorithm after finding good starting values via a K-means clustering of the genetic data. Details can be found in: Foster, S. D.; Feutry, P.; Grewe, P. M.; Berry, O.; Hui, F. K. C. & Davies (2020) <doi:10.1111/1755-0998.12920>.

Efficient procedures for fitting and cross-validating the structurally-regularized time-dependent Cox models.

This package contains fast functions to calculate the exact Bayes posterior for the Sparse Normal Sequence Model, implementing the algorithms described in Van Erven and Szabo (2021, <doi:10.1214/20-BA1227>). For general hierarchical priors, sample sizes up to 10,000 are feasible within half an hour on a standard laptop. For beta-binomial spike-and-slab priors, a faster algorithm is provided, which can handle sample sizes of 100,000 in half an hour. In the implementation, special care has been taken to assure numerical stability of the methods even for such large sample sizes.

This package provides a set of functions for querying and parsing data from Solr (<https://solr.apache.org/>) endpoints (local and remote), including search, faceting', highlighting', stats', and more like this'. In addition, some functionality is included for creating, deleting, and updating documents in a Solr database'.

Estimates Hessian of a scalar-valued function, and returns it in a sparse Matrix format. The sparsity pattern must be known in advance. The algorithm is especially efficient for hierarchical models with a large number of heterogeneous units. See Braun, M. (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v082.i10>.

Simulate genotypes in SNP (single nucleotide polymorphisms) Matrix as random numbers from an uniform distribution, for diploid organisms (coded by 0, 1, 2), Sikorska et al., (2013) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-14-166>, or half-sib/full-sib SNP matrix from real or simulated parents SNP data, assuming mendelian segregation. Simulate phenotypic traits for real or simulated SNP data, controlled by a specific number of quantitative trait loci and their effects, sampled from a Normal or an Uniform distributions, assuming a pure additive model. This is useful for testing association and genomic prediction models or for educational purposes.

Affords researchers the ability to draw stratified samples from the U.S. Department of Veteran's Affairs/Department of Defense Identity Repository (VADIR) database according to a variety of population characteristics. The VADIR database contains information for all veterans who were separated from the military after 1980. The central utility of the present package is to integrate data cleaning and formatting for the VADIR database with the stratification methods described by Mahto (2019) <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=splitstackshape>. Data from VADIR are not provided as part of this package.
