This package provides a unified framework for detecting spatially variable genes (SVGs) in spatial transcriptomics data. This package integrates multiple state-of-the-art SVG detection methods including MERINGUE (Moran's I based spatial autocorrelation), Giotto binSpect (binary spatial enrichment test), SPARK-X (non-parametric kernel-based test), and nnSVG (nearest-neighbor Gaussian processes). Each method is implemented with optimized performance through vectorization, parallelization, and C++ acceleration where applicable. Methods are described in Miller et al.

This package implements Surprisal analysis for gene expression data such as RNA-seq or microarray experiments. Surprisal analysis is an information-theoretic method that decomposes gene expression data into a baseline state and constraint-associated deviations, capturing coordinated gene expression patterns under different biological conditions.

Converts the dates to different SAS date formats. In SAS dates are a special case of numeric values. Each day is assigned a specific numeric value, starting from January 1, 1960. This date is assigned the date value 0, and the next date has a date value of 1 and so on. The previous days to this date are represented by -1 , -2 and so on. With this approach, SAS can represent any date in the future or any date in the past. There are many date formats used in SAS to represent date-time. Here, we try to develop functions which will convert the date to different SAS date formats.

Spatial versions of Regression Discontinuity Designs (RDDs) are becoming increasingly popular as tools for causal inference. However, conducting state-of-the-art analyses often involves tedious and time-consuming steps. This package offers comprehensive functionalities for executing all required spatial and econometric tasks in a streamlined manner. Moreover, it equips researchers with tools for performing essential placebo and balancing checks comprehensively. The fact that researchers do not have to rely on APIs of external GIS software ensures replicability and raises the standard for spatial RDDs.

Time series area-level models for small area estimation. The package supplements the functionality of the sae package. Specifically, it includes EBLUP fitting of the Rao-Yu model in the original form without a spatial component. The package also offers a modified ("dynamic") version of the Rao-Yu model, replacing the assumption of stationarity. Both univariate and multivariate applications are supported. Of particular note is the allowance for covariance of the area-level sample estimates over time, as encountered in rotating panel designs such as the U.S. National Crime Victimization Survey or present in a time-series of 5-year estimates from the American Community Survey. Key references to the methods include J.N.K. Rao and I. Molina (2015, ISBN:9781118735787), J.N.K. Rao and M. Yu (1994) <doi:10.2307/3315407>, and R.E. Fay and R.A. Herriot (1979) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1979.10482505>.
