It is often useful to produce short, quasi-unique identifiers (SQUIDs) without the benefit of a central authority to prevent duplication. Although Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) provide for this, these are also unwieldy; for example, the most used UUID, version 4, is 36 characters long. SQUIDs are short (8 characters) at the expense of having more collisions, which can be mitigated by combining them with human-produced suffixes, yielding relatively brief, half human-readable, almost-unique identifiers (see for example the identifiers used for Decentralized Construct Taxonomies; Peters & Crutzen, 2024 <doi:10.15626/MP.2022.3638>). SQUIDs are the number of centiseconds elapsed since the beginning of 1970 converted to a base 30 system. This package contains functions to produce SQUIDs as well as convert them back into dates and times.

An interactive charting library built on Svelte and D3 to easily produce SVG charts in R. Designed to simplify shiny development by eliminating the need for renderUI(), insertUI(), removeUI(), and shiny proxy functions, using Svelte''s reactive state system instead.

In stability selection (N Meinshausen, P Bühlmann (2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2010.00740.x>) and consensus clustering (S Monti et al (2003) <doi:10.1023/A:1023949509487>), resampling techniques are used to enhance the reliability of the results. In this package (B Bodinier et al (2025) <doi:10.18637/jss.v112.i05>), hyper-parameters are calibrated by maximising model stability, which is measured under the null hypothesis that all selection (or co-membership) probabilities are identical (B Bodinier et al (2023a) <doi:10.1093/jrsssc/qlad058> and B Bodinier et al (2023b) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btad635>). Functions are readily implemented for the use of LASSO regression, sparse PCA, sparse (group) PLS or graphical LASSO in stability selection, and hierarchical clustering, partitioning around medoids, K means or Gaussian mixture models in consensus clustering.

Inspired by the art and color research of Sanzo Wada (1883-1967), his "Dictionary Of Color Combinations" (2011, ISBN:978-4861522475), and the interactive site by Dain M. Blodorn Kim <https://github.com/dblodorn/sanzo-wada>, this package brings Wada's color combinations to R for easy use in data visualizations. This package honors 60 of Wada's color combinations: 20 duos, 20 trios, and 20 quads.

This is a compendium of C++ routines useful for Bayesian statistics. We steal other people's C++ code, repurpose it, and export it so developers of R packages can use it in their C++ code. We actually don't steal anything, or claim that Thomas Bayes did, but copy code that is compatible with our GPL 3 licence, fully acknowledging the authorship of the original code.

Bio-Layer Interferometry (BLI) is a technology to determine the binding kinetics between biomolecules. BLI signals are small and noisy when small molecules are investigated as ligands (analytes). We develop this package to process and analyze the BLI data acquired on Octet Red96 from Fortebio more accurately. Sun Q., Li X., et al (2020) <doi:10.1038/s41467-019-14238-3>. In this new version, we organize the BLI experiment data and analysis methods into a S4 class with self-explaining structure.

Use inverse probability weighting methods to estimate treatment effect under marginal structure model (MSM) for the transition hazard of semi competing risk data, i.e. illness death model. We implement two specific such models, the usual Markov illness death structural model and the general Markov illness death structural model. We also provide the predicted three risks functions from the marginal structure models. Zhang, Y. and Xu, R. (2022) <arXiv:2204.10426>.

This package provides a metric expressing the quality of a UMAP layout. This is a package that contains the Saturn_coefficient() function that reads an input matrix, its dimensionality reduction produced by UMAP, and evaluates the quality of this dimensionality reduction by producing a real value in the [0; 1] interval. We call this real value Saturn coefficient. A higher value means better dimensionality reduction; a lower value means worse dimensionality reduction. Reference: Davide Chicco et al. (February 2026), "The advantages of our proposed Saturn coefficient over continuity and trustworthiness for UMAP dimensionality reduction evaluation", PeerJ Computer Science 12:e3424 (pp. 1-30), <doi:10.7717/peerj-cs.3424>.

Cell-level protein intensities are modeled with spatial spline regression to estimate spatially adjusted mean expression and residual variance. Methodological details are described in Ahn et al.

Implementation of uniformity tests on the circle and (hyper)sphere. The main function of the package is unif_test(), which conveniently collects more than 35 tests for assessing uniformity on S^p-1 = x in R^p : ||x|| = 1, p >= 2. The test statistics are implemented in the unif_stat() function, which allows computing several statistics for different samples within a single call, thus facilitating Monte Carlo experiments. Furthermore, the unif_stat_MC() function allows parallelizing them in a simple way. The asymptotic null distributions of the statistics are available through the function unif_stat_distr(). The core of sphunif is coded in C++ by relying on the Rcpp package. The package also provides several novel datasets and gives the replicability for the data applications/simulations in Garcà a-Portugués et al. (2021) <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-69944-4_12>, Garcà a-Portugués et al. (2023) <doi:10.3150/21-BEJ1454>, Fernández-de-Marcos and Garcà a-Portugués (2024) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2024.110218>, and Garcà a-Portugués et al. (2025) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2025.2566414>.

An outcome-guided algorithm is developed to identify clusters of samples with similar characteristics and survival rate. The algorithm first builds a random forest and then defines distances between samples based on the fitted random forest. Given the distances, we can apply hierarchical clustering algorithms to define clusters. Details about this method is described in <https://github.com/luyouepiusf/SurvivalClusteringTree>.

This package provides methods for statistical disclosure control in tabular data such as primary and secondary cell suppression as described for example in Hundepol et al. (2012) <doi:10.1002/9781118348239> are covered in this package.

This package provides functions for statistical analysis of point processes.

This package provides estimation of simultaneous bootstrap and asymptotic confidence intervals for diversity indices, namely the Shannon and the Simpson index. Several pre--specified multiple comparison types are available to choose. Further user--defined contrast matrices are applicable. In addition, simboot estimates adjusted as well as unadjusted p--values for two of the three proposed bootstrap methods. Further simboot allows for comparing biological diversities of two or more groups while simultaneously testing a user-defined selection of Hill numbers of orders q, which are considered as appropriate and useful indices for measuring diversity.

Reveals how data quality silently degrades during geographic transformations while variable labels remain unchanged. Demonstrates that transformation error is agnostic to both the variable (population, income, etc.) and the tool ('R', Python', etc.). Provides a reproducible audit framework for quantifying the shift from observed to imputed data at each transformation hop.
