Monte Carlo sampling algorithms for semiparametric Bayesian regression analysis. These models feature a nonparametric (unknown) transformation of the data paired with widely-used regression models including linear regression, spline regression, quantile regression, and Gaussian processes. The transformation enables broader applicability of these key models, including for real-valued, positive, and compactly-supported data with challenging distributional features. The samplers prioritize computational scalability and, for most cases, Monte Carlo (not MCMC) sampling for greater efficiency. Details of the methods and algorithms are provided in Kowal and Wu (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2024.2395586>.

This package provides functions to produce a fully fledged geo-spatial object extent as a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame'. Also included are functions to generate polygons from raster data using quadmesh techniques, a round number buffered extent, and general spatial-extent and raster-like extent helpers missing from the originating packages. Some latitude-based tools for polar maps are included.

This package implements a group-bridge penalized function-on-scalar regression model proposed by Wang et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/biom.13684>, to simultaneously estimate functional coefficient and recover the local sparsity.

Speeds up the process of loading raw data from MBA (Multiplex Bead Assay) examinations, performs quality control checks, and automatically normalises the data, preparing it for more advanced, downstream tasks. The main objective of the package is to create a simple environment for a user, who does not necessarily have experience with R language. The package is developed within the project PvSTATEM', which is an international project aiming for malaria elimination.

Compute relative or absolute population trends across space and time using predictions from models fitted to ecological population abundance data, as described in Knape (2025) <doi:10.1016/j.ecolind.2025.113435>. The package supports models fitted by mgcv or brms', and draws from posterior predictive distributions.

Introduces a fast and efficient Surrogate Variable Analysis algorithm that captures variation of unknown sources (batch effects) for high-dimensional data sets. The algorithm is built on the irwsva.build function of the sva package and proposes a revision on it that achieves an order of magnitude faster running time while trading no accuracy loss in return.

Wrapper for the non-validating SQL parser Python module sqlparse <https://github.com/andialbrecht/sqlparse>. It allows parsing, splitting, and formatting SQL statements.

Fits Bayesian spatio-temporal models and makes predictions on stream networks using the approach by Santos-Fernandez, Edgar, et al. (2022)."Bayesian spatio-temporal models for stream networks". <arXiv:2103.03538>. In these models, spatial dependence is captured using stream distance and flow connectivity, while temporal autocorrelation is modelled using vector autoregression methods.

Insert Glide JavaScript component into Shiny applications for carousel or assistant-like user interfaces.

Sample size calculation to detect dynamic treatment regime (DTR) effects based on change in clinical attachment level (CAL) outcomes from a non-surgical chronic periodontitis treatments study. The experiment is performed under a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) design. The clustered tooth (sub-unit) level CAL outcomes are skewed, spatially-referenced, and non-randomly missing. The implemented algorithm is available in Xu et al. (2019+) <arXiv:1902.09386>.

Set of tools to find coherent patterns in gene expression (microarray) data using a Bayesian Sparse Latent Factor Model (SLFM) <DOI:10.1007/978-3-319-12454-4_15>. Considerable effort has been put to build a fast and memory efficient package, which makes this proposal an interesting and computationally convenient alternative to study patterns of gene expressions exhibited in matrices. The package contains the implementation of two versions of the model based on different mixture priors for the loadings: one relies on a degenerate component at zero and the other uses a small variance normal distribution for the spike part of the mixture.

Shapley Value Regression for calculating the relative importance of independent variables in linear regression with avoiding the collinearity.

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).

This package provides a collection of functions for reading soil data from U.S. Department of Agriculture Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS) and National Cooperative Soil Survey (NCSS) databases.

This package provides an abstraction for managing, installing, and switching between sets of installed R packages. This allows users to maintain multiple package libraries simultaneously, e.g. to maintain strict, package-version-specific reproducibility of many analyses, or work within a development/production release paradigm. Introduces a generalized package installation process which supports multiple repository and non-repository sources and tracks package provenance.

Import data from the STATcube REST API or from the open data portal of Statistics Austria. This package includes a client for API requests as well as parsing utilities for data which originates from STATcube'. Documentation about STATcubeR is provided by several vignettes included in the package as well as on the public pkgdown page at <https://statistikat.github.io/STATcubeR/>.

This package provides systematic geometry-adaptive parameter optimization with statistical validation for experimental biological data. Combines ANOVA-based validation with systematic constraint configuration testing (log-scale, positive domain, Euclidean) through T,P,E testing. Only proceeds with parameter optimization when statistically significant biological effects are detected, preventing over-fitting to noise. Uses GALAHAD trust region methods with constraint projection from Conn et al. (2000) <doi:10.1137/S1052623497325107>, ANOVA-based validation following Fisher (1925) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4612-4380-9_6>, and effect size calculations per Cohen (1988, ISBN:0805802835). Designed for structured experimental data including kinetic curves, dose-response studies, and treatment comparisons where appropriate parameter constraints and statistical justification are important for meaningful biological interpretation. Developed at the Minnesota Center for Prion Research and Outreach at the University of Minnesota.

This package implements a custom matrix input field.

This package provides a collection of functions which (i) assess the quality of variable subsets as surrogates for a full data set, in either an exploratory data analysis or in the context of a multivariate linear model, and (ii) search for subsets which are optimal under various criteria. Theoretical support for the heuristic search methods and exploratory data analysis criteria is in Cadima, Cerdeira, Minhoto (2003, <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2003.11.001>). Theoretical support for the leap and bounds algorithm and the criteria for the general multivariate linear model is in Duarte Silva (2001, <doi:10.1006/jmva.2000.1920>). There is a package vignette "subselect", which includes additional references.
