This package provides the estimation of a time-dependent covariance matrix of returns with the intended use for portfolio optimization. The package offers methods for determining the optimal number of factors to be used in the covariance estimation, a hypothesis test of time-varying covariance, and user-friendly functions for portfolio optimization and rolling window evaluation. The local PCA method, method for determining the number of factors, and associated hypothesis test are based on Su and Wang (2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2016.12.004>. The approach to time-varying portfolio optimization follows Fan et al. (2024) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2022.08.007>. The regularisation applied to the residual covariance matrix adopts the technique introduced by Chen et al. (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2019.04.025>.

Treatment and visualization of membrane (selective) transport data. Transport profiles involving up to three species are produced as publication-ready plots and several membrane performance parameters (e.g. separation factors as defined in Koros et al. (1996) <doi:10.1351/pac199668071479> and non-linear regression parameters for the equations described in Rodriguez de San Miguel et al. (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.jhazmat.2014.03.052>) can be obtained. Many widely used experimental setups (e.g. membrane physical aging) can be easily studied through the package's graphical representations.

This package provides a standardized workflow to reconstruct spatial configurations of altitude-bounded biogeographic systems over time. For example, tabs can model how island archipelagos expand or contract with changing sea levels or how alpine biomes shift in response to tree line movements. It provides functionality to account for various geophysical processes such as crustal deformation and other tectonic changes, allowing for a more accurate representation of biogeographic system dynamics. For more information see De Groeve et al. (2025) <doi:10.3897/arphapreprints.e151900>.

Construction of the Total Operating Characteristic (TOC) Curve and the Receiver (aka Relative) Operating Characteristic (ROC) Curve for spatial and non-spatial data. The TOC method is a modification of the ROC method which measures the ability of an index variable to diagnose either presence or absence of a characteristic. The diagnosis depends on whether the value of an index variable is above a threshold. Each threshold generates a two-by-two contingency table, which contains four entries: hits (H), misses (M), false alarms (FA), and correct rejections (CR). While ROC shows for each threshold only two ratios, H/(H + M) and FA/(FA + CR), TOC reveals the size of every entry in the contingency table for each threshold (Pontius Jr., R.G., Si, K. 2014. <doi:10.1080/13658816.2013.862623>).

The tsgc package provides comprehensive tools for the analysis and forecasting of epidemic trajectories. It is designed to model the progression of an epidemic over time while accounting for the various uncertainties inherent in real-time data. Underpinned by a dynamic Gompertz model, the package adopts a state space approach, using the Kalman filter for flexible and robust estimation of the non-linear growth pattern commonly observed in epidemic data. The reinitialization feature enhances the modelâ s ability to adapt to the emergence of new waves. The forecasts generated by the package are of value to public health officials and researchers who need to understand and predict the course of an epidemic to inform decision-making. Beyond its application in public health, the package is also a useful resource for researchers and practitioners in fields where the trajectories of interest resemble those of epidemics, such as innovation diffusion. The package includes functionalities for data preprocessing, model fitting, and forecast visualization, as well as tools for evaluating forecast accuracy. The core methodologies implemented in tsgc are based on well-established statistical techniques as described in Harvey and Kattuman (2020) <doi:10.1162/99608f92.828f40de>, Harvey and Kattuman (2021) <doi:10.1098/rsif.2021.0179>, and Ashby, Harvey, Kattuman, and Thamotheram (2024) <https://www.jbs.cam.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/cchle-tsgc-paper-2024.pdf>.

Package test2norm contains functions to generate formulas for normative standards applied to cognitive tests. It takes raw test scores (e.g., number of correct responses) and converts them to scaled scores and demographically adjusted scores, using methods described in Heaton et al. (2003) <doi:10.1016/B978-012703570-3/50010-9> & Heaton et al. (2009, ISBN:9780199702800). The scaled scores are calculated as quantiles of the raw test scores, scaled to have the mean of 10 and standard deviation of 3, such that higher values always correspond to better performance on the test. The demographically adjusted scores are calculated from the residuals of a model that regresses scaled scores on demographic predictors (e.g., age). The norming procedure makes use of the mfp2() function from the mfp2 package to explore nonlinear associations between cognition and demographic variables.

Simulate genotypes for case-parent triads, case-control, and quantitative trait samples with realistic linkage diequilibrium structure and allele frequency distribution. For studies of epistasis one can simulate models that involve specific SNPs at specific sets of loci, which we will refer to as "pathways". TriadSim generates genotype data by resampling triad genotypes from existing data. The details of the method is described in the manuscript under preparation "Simulating Autosomal Genotypes with Realistic Linkage Disequilibrium and a Spiked in Genetic Effect" Shi, M., Umbach, D.M., Wise A.S., Weinberg, C.R.

Generating Tag and Word Clouds.

Tightens an observational block design into a smaller design with either smaller or fewer blocks while controlling for covariates. The method uses fine balance, optimal subset matching (Rosenbaum, 2012 <doi:10.1198/jcgs.2011.09219>) and two-criteria matching (Zhang et al 2023 <doi:10.1080/01621459.2021.1981337>). The main function is tighten(). The suggested rrelaxiv package for solving minimum cost flow problems: (i) derives from Bertsekas and Tseng (1988) <doi:10.1007/BF02288322>, (ii) is not available on CRAN due to its academic license, (iii) may be downloaded from GitHub at <https://github.com/josherrickson/rrelaxiv/>, (iv) is not essential to use the package.
