This package provides a design-based approach to statistical inference, with a focus on spatial data. Spatially balanced samples are selected using the Generalized Random Tessellation Stratified (GRTS) algorithm. The GRTS algorithm can be applied to finite resources (point geometries) and infinite resources (linear / linestring and areal / polygon geometries) and flexibly accommodates a diverse set of sampling design features, including stratification, unequal inclusion probabilities, proportional (to size) inclusion probabilities, legacy (historical) sites, a minimum distance between sites, and two options for replacement sites (reverse hierarchical order and nearest neighbor). Data are analyzed using a wide range of analysis functions that perform categorical variable analysis, continuous variable analysis, attributable risk analysis, risk difference analysis, relative risk analysis, change analysis, and trend analysis. spsurvey can also be used to summarize objects, visualize objects, select samples that are not spatially balanced, select panel samples, measure the amount of spatial balance in a sample, adjust design weights, and more. For additional details, see Dumelle et al. (2023) <doi:10.18637/jss.v105.i03>.

This package provides a pipeline for estimating the average treatment effect via semi-supervised learning. Outcome regression is fit with cross-fitting using various machine learning method or user customized function. Doubly robust ATE estimation leverages both labeled and unlabeled data under a semi-supervised missing-data framework. For more details see Hou et al. (2021) <doi:10.48550/arxiv.2110.12336>. A detailed vignette is included.

This package implements SplitWise', a hybrid regression approach that transforms numeric variables into either single-split (0/1) dummy variables or retains them as continuous predictors. The transformation is followed by stepwise selection to identify the most relevant variables. The default iterative mode adaptively explores partial synergies among variables to enhance model performance, while an alternative univariate mode applies simpler transformations independently to each predictor. For details, see Kurbucz et al. (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2505.15423>.

We provide a suite of tools for estimating the sample complexity of a chosen model through theoretical bounds and simulation. The package incorporates methods for estimating the Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension (VCD) of a chosen algorithm, which can be used to estimate its sample complexity. Alternatively, we provide simulation methods to estimate sample complexity directly. For more details, see Carter, P & Choi, D (2024). "Learning from Noise: Applying Sample Complexity for Political Science Research" <doi:10.31219/osf.io/evrcj>.

This package provides tools to simulate and analyze survival data with interval-, left-, right-, and uncensored observations under common parametric distributions, including "Weibull", "Exponential", "Log-Normal", "Log-Logistic", "Gamma", "Gompertz", "Normal", "Logistic", and "EMV". The package supports both direct maximum likelihood estimation and imputation-based methods, making it suitable for methodological research, simulation benchmarking, and teaching. A web-based companion app is also available for demonstration purposes.

Programs to find the sample size or power of studies using the Sequential Parallel Comparison Design (SPCD) and programs to analyze such studies. This is a clinical trial design where patients initially on placebo who did not respond are re-randomized between placebo and active drug in a second phase and the results of the two phases are pooled. The method of analyzing binary data with this design is described in Fava,Evins, Dorer and Schoenfeld(2003) <doi:10.1159/000069738>, and the method of analyzing continuous data is described in Chen, Yang, Hung and Wang (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2011.04.006>.

This package provides a minimalist implementation of model stacking by Wolpert (1992) <doi:10.1016/S0893-6080(05)80023-1> for boosted tree models. A classic, two-layer stacking model is implemented, where the first layer generates features using gradient boosting trees, and the second layer employs a logistic regression model that uses these features as inputs. Utilities for training the base models and parameters tuning are provided, allowing users to experiment with different ensemble configurations easily. It aims to provide a simple and efficient way to combine multiple gradient boosting models to improve predictive model performance and robustness.

Decision support tool for prioritizing sites for ecological surveys based on their potential to improve plans for conserving biodiversity (e.g. plans for establishing protected areas). Given a set of sites that could potentially be acquired for conservation management, it can be used to generate and evaluate plans for surveying additional sites. Specifically, plans for ecological surveys can be generated using various conventional approaches (e.g. maximizing expected species richness, geographic coverage, diversity of sampled environmental algorithms. After generating such survey plans, they can be evaluated using conditions) and maximizing value of information. Please note that several functions depend on the Gurobi optimization software (available from <https://www.gurobi.com>). Additionally, the JAGS software (available from <https://mcmc-jags.sourceforge.io/>) is required to fit hierarchical generalized linear models. For further details, see Hanson et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/1365-2664.14309>.
