Handles datetimes as integers for the usage inside Discrete-Event Simulations (DES). The conversion is made using the internally generic function as.numeric() of the base package. DES is described in Simulation Modeling and Analysis by Averill Law and David Kelton (1999) <doi:10.2307/2288169>.

This package contains data files to accompany Smithson & Merkle (2013), Generalized Linear Models for Categorical and Continuous Limited Dependent Variables.

Spatial Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SSFA) is an original method for controlling the spatial heterogeneity in Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) models, for cross-sectional data, by splitting the inefficiency term into three terms: the first one related to spatial peculiarities of the territory in which each single unit operates, the second one related to the specific production features and the third one representing the error term.

This package provides functions for color-based visualization of multivariate data, i.e. colorgrams or heatmaps. Lower-level functions map numeric values to colors, display a matrix as an array of colors, and draw color keys. Higher-level plotting functions generate a bivariate histogram, a dendrogram aligned with a color-coded matrix, a triangular distance matrix, and more.

The Structural Topic and Sentiment-Discourse (STS) model allows researchers to estimate topic models with document-level metadata that determines both topic prevalence and sentiment-discourse. The sentiment-discourse is modeled as a document-level latent variable for each topic that modulates the word frequency within a topic. These latent topic sentiment-discourse variables are controlled by the document-level metadata. The STS model can be useful for regression analysis with text data in addition to topic modelingâ s traditional use of descriptive analysis. The method was developed in Chen and Mankad (2024) <doi:10.1287/mnsc.2022.00261>.

Datasets used in "Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences" (SMSS) by Alan Agresti and Barbara Finlay.

For Multi Parent Populations (MPP) Identity By Descend (IBD) probabilities are computed using Hidden Markov Models. These probabilities are then used in a mixed model approach for QTL Mapping as described in Li et al. (<doi:10.1007/s00122-021-03919-7>).

Interval fusion and selection procedures for regression with functional inputs. Methods include a semiparametric approach based on Sliced Inverse Regression (SIR), as described in <doi:10.1007/s11222-018-9806-6> (standard ridge and sparse SIR are also included in the package) and a random forest based approach, as described in <doi:10.1002/sam.11705>.

This package performs predictions of totals and weighted sums, or finite population block kriging, on spatial data using the methods in Ver Hoef (2008) <doi:10.1007/s10651-007-0035-y>. The primary outputs are an estimate of the total, mean, or weighted sum in the region, an estimated prediction variance, and a plot of the predicted and observed values. This is useful primarily to users with ecological data that are counts or densities measured on some sites in a finite area of interest. Spatial prediction for the total count or average density in the entire region can then be done using the functions in this package.

Algorithms for fitting scaled sparse linear regression and estimating precision matrices.

This package provides functions and data sets inspired by data sharpening - data perturbation to achieve improved performance in nonparametric estimation, as described in Choi, E., Hall, P. and Rousson, V. (2000). Capabilities for enhanced local linear regression function and derivative estimation are included, as well as an asymptotically correct iterated data sharpening estimator for any degree of local polynomial regression estimation. A cross-validation-based bandwidth selector is included which, in concert with the iterated sharpener, will often provide superior performance, according to a median integrated squared error criterion. Sample data sets are provided to illustrate function usage.

Download and read datasets from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF, FNS, SNSF; <https://snf.ch>). The package is lightweight and without dependencies. Downloaded data can optionally be cached, to avoid repeated downloads of the same files. There are also utilities for comparing different versions of datasets, i.e. to report added, removed and changed entries.

Finds causal connections in precision data, finds lags and embeddings in time series, guides training of neural networks and other smooth models, evaluates their performance, gives a mathematically grounded answer to the over-training problem. Smooth regression is based on the Gamma test, which measures smoothness in a multivariate relationship. Causal relations are smooth, noise is not. sr includes the Gamma test and search techniques that use it.

This package implements the methodological developments found in Hermes, van Heerwaarden, and Behrouzi (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2308.04325>, and allows for the statistical modeling of asymmetric between-location effects, as well as within-location effects using spatial autoregressive graphical models. The package allows for the generation of spatial weight matrices to capture asymmetric effects for strip-type intercropping designs, although it can handle any type of spatial data commonly found in other sciences.

This package provides a multidimensional dataset of students performance assessment in high school physics. The SPHERE dataset was collected from 497 students in four public high schools specifically measuring their conceptual understanding, scientific ability, and attitude toward physics [see Santoso et al. (2024) <doi:10.17632/88d7m2fv7p.1>]. The data collection was conducted using some research based assessments established by the physics education research community. They include the Force Concept Inventory, the Force and Motion Conceptual Evaluation, the Rotational and Rolling Motion Conceptual Survey, the Fluid Mechanics Concept Inventory, the Mechanical Waves Conceptual Survey, the Thermal Concept Evaluation, the Survey of Thermodynamic Processes and First and Second Laws, the Scientific Abilities Assessment Rubrics, and the Colorado Learning Attitudes about Science Survey. Students attributes related to gender, age, socioeconomic status, domicile, literacy, physics identity, and test results administered using teachers developed items are also reported in this dataset.

Detects spatial and temporal groups in GPS relocations (Robitaille et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13215>). It can be used to convert GPS relocations to gambit-of-the-group format to build proximity-based social networks In addition, the randomizations function provides data-stream randomization methods suitable for GPS data.

The focus is on simulating and modeling families with founders drawn from a structured population (for example, with different ancestries or other potentially non-family relatedness), in contrast to traditional pedigree analysis that treats all founders as equally unrelated. Main function simulates a random pedigree for many generations, avoiding close relatives, pairing closest individuals according to a 1D geography and their randomly-drawn sex, and with variable children sizes to result in a target population size per generation. Auxiliary functions calculate kinship matrices, admixture matrices, and draw random genotypes across arbitrary pedigree structures starting from the corresponding founder values. The code is built around the plink FAM table format for pedigrees. Described in Yao and Ochoa (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.03.25.485885>.

Suns-Voc (or Isc-Voc) curves can provide the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the diode of photovoltaic cells without the effect of series resistance. Here, Suns-Voc curves can be constructed with outdoor time-series I-V curves [1,2,3] of full-size photovoltaic (PV) modules instead of having to be measured in the lab. Time series of four different power loss modes can be calculated based on obtained Isc-Voc curves.
