Verb-like functions to work with messy data, often derived from spreadsheets or parsed PDF tables. Includes functions for unwrapping values broken up across rows, relocating embedded grouping values, and to annotate meaningful formatting in spreadsheet files.

The Ultimate Microrray Prediction, Reality and Inference Engine (UMPIRE) is a package to facilitate the simulation of realistic microarray data sets with links to associated outcomes. See Zhang and Coombes (2012) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-13-S13-S1>. Version 2.0 adds the ability to simulate realistic mixed-typed clinical data.

Programmatic interface to access data from the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) Data Dashboard API. The package was originally based on the ukcovid19 package by Pouria Hadjibagheri and has been substantially rewritten and extended. For more information on the API, see <https://ukhsa-dashboard.data.gov.uk/access-our-data>.

This package provides functions for uniform sampling of the environmental space, designed to assist species distribution modellers in gathering ecologically relevant pseudo-absence data. The method ensures balanced representation of environmental conditions and helps reduce sampling bias in model calibration. Based on the framework described by Da Re et al. (2023) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.14209>.

This package implements empirical Bayes approaches to genotype polyploids from next generation sequencing data while accounting for allele bias, overdispersion, and sequencing error. The main functions are flexdog() and multidog(), which allow the specification of many different genotype distributions. Also provided are functions to simulate genotypes, rgeno(), and read-counts, rflexdog(), as well as functions to calculate oracle genotyping error rates, oracle_mis(), and correlation with the true genotypes, oracle_cor(). These latter two functions are useful for read depth calculations. Run browseVignettes(package = "updog") in R for example usage. See Gerard et al. (2018) <doi:10.1534/genetics.118.301468> and Gerard and Ferrao (2020) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz852> for details on the implemented methods.

This natural language processing toolkit provides language-agnostic tokenization', parts of speech tagging', lemmatization and dependency parsing of raw text. Next to text parsing, the package also allows you to train annotation models based on data of treebanks in CoNLL-U format as provided at <https://universaldependencies.org/format.html>. The techniques are explained in detail in the paper: Tokenizing, POS Tagging, Lemmatizing and Parsing UD 2.0 with UDPipe', available at <doi:10.18653/v1/K17-3009>. The toolkit also contains functionalities for commonly used data manipulations on texts which are enriched with the output of the parser. Namely functionalities and algorithms for collocations, token co-occurrence, document term matrix handling, term frequency inverse document frequency calculations, information retrieval metrics (Okapi BM25), handling of multi-word expressions, keyword detection (Rapid Automatic Keyword Extraction, noun phrase extraction, syntactical patterns) sentiment scoring and semantic similarity analysis.

An R API providing easy access to a relational database with macroeconomic, financial and development related time series data for Uganda. Overall more than 5000 series at varying frequency (daily, monthly, quarterly, annual in fiscal or calendar years) can be accessed through the API. The data is provided by the Bank of Uganda, the Ugandan Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development, the IMF and the World Bank. The database is being updated once a month.

When a package is loaded, the source repository is checked for new versions and a message is shown in the console indicating whether the package is out of date.

The boundaries for geographical units in the United States of America contained in this package include state, county, congressional district, and zip code tabulation area. Contemporary boundaries are provided by the U.S. Census Bureau (public domain). Historical boundaries for the years from 1629 to 2000 are provided form the Newberry Library's Atlas of Historical County Boundaries (licensed CC BY-NC-SA). Additional data is provided in the USAboundariesData package; this package provides an interface to access that data.

Elasticsearch is an open-source, distributed, document-based datastore (<https://www.elastic.co/products/elasticsearch>). It provides an HTTP API for querying the database and extracting datasets, but that API was not designed for common data science workflows like pulling large batches of records and normalizing those documents into a data frame that can be used as a training dataset for statistical models. uptasticsearch provides an interface for Elasticsearch that is explicitly designed to make these data science workflows easy and fun.

Calculate unified measures that quantify the effect of a covariate on a binary dependent variable (e.g., for meta-analyses). This can be particularly important if the estimation results are obtained with different models/estimators (e.g., linear probability model, logit, probit, ...) and/or with different transformations of the explanatory variable of interest (e.g., linear, quadratic, interval-coded, ...). The calculated unified measures are: (a) semi-elasticities of linear, quadratic, or interval-coded covariates and (b) effects of linear, quadratic, interval-coded, or categorical covariates when a linear or quadratic covariate changes between distinct intervals, the reference category of a categorical variable or the reference interval of an interval-coded variable needs to be changed, or some categories of a categorical covariate or some intervals of an interval-coded covariate need to be grouped together. Approximate standard errors of the unified measures are also calculated. All methods that are implemented in this package are described in the vignette "Extracting and Unifying Semi-Elasticities and Effect Sizes from Studies with Binary Dependent Variables" that is included in this package.

Implement a shrinkage estimation for the univariate normal mean based on a preliminary test (pretest) estimator. This package also provides the confidence interval based on pivoting the cumulative density function. The methodologies are published in Taketomi et al.(2024) <doi:10.1007/s42081-023-00221-2> and Taketomi et al.(2024-)(under review).

An engine for univariate time series forecasting using different regression models in an autoregressive way. The engine provides an uniform interface for applying the different models. Furthermore, it is extensible so that users can easily apply their own regression models to univariate time series forecasting and benefit from all the features of the engine, such as preprocessings or estimation of forecast accuracy.

This package provides a classification (decision) tree is constructed from survival data with high-dimensional covariates. The method is a robust version of the logrank tree, where the variance is stabilized. The main function "uni.tree" returns a classification tree for a given survival dataset. The inner nodes (splitting criterion) are selected by minimizing the P-value of the two-sample the score tests. The decision of declaring terminal nodes (stopping criterion) is the P-value threshold given by an argument (specified by user). This tree construction algorithm is proposed by Emura et al. (2021, in review).

This package provides a time series of the national grid demand (high-voltage electric power transmission network) in the UK since 2011.

Analyzes the impact of external conditions on air quality using counterfactual approaches, featuring methods for data preparation, modeling, and visualization.

Calculates a Mahalanobis distance for every row of a set of outcome variables (Mahalanobis, 1936 <doi:10.1007/s13171-019-00164-5>). The conditional Mahalanobis distance is calculated using a conditional covariance matrix (i.e., a covariance matrix of the outcome variables after controlling for a set of predictors). Plotting the output of the cond_maha() function can help identify which elements of a profile are unusual after controlling for the predictors.

Model fitting and parameter estimation are performed, with additional options to calculate the time to viral suppression. Plotting and summary tools are also provided for fast assessment of model results.
