This package provides a consistent interface for constructing commonly used spatial covariates from polygon data. Computes polygon areas, distances to reference features, point and line intersection counts, line lengths within polygons, polygon overlap areas and shares, and raster zonal summaries. Handles coordinate reference system validation, geometry repair, unit conversion, row preservation, and standardised missing value semantics while relying on established spatial libraries for the underlying geometry operations.

Calculate geolocations by light using template matching. The routine uses a calibration free optimization of a sky illuminance model to determine locations robustly using a template matching approach, as described by Ekstrom (2004) <https://nipr.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/2496>, and behaviourly informed constraints (step-selection).

Various self-controlled case series models used to investigate associations between time-varying exposures such as vaccines or other drugs or non drug exposures and an adverse event can be fitted. Detailed information on the self-controlled case series method and its extensions with more examples can be found in Farrington, P., Whitaker, H., and Ghebremichael Weldeselassie, Y. (2018, ISBN: 978-1-4987-8159-6. Self-controlled Case Series studies: A modelling Guide with R. Boca Raton: Chapman & Hall/CRC Press) and <https://sccs-studies.info/index.html>.

Set of tools to fit a semi-parametric regression model suitable for analysis of data sets in which the response variable is continuous, strictly positive, asymmetric and possibly, censored. Under this setup, both the median and the skewness of the response variable distribution are explicitly modeled by using semi-parametric functions, whose non-parametric components may be approximated by natural cubic splines or P-splines. Supported distributions for the model error include log-normal, log-Student-t, log-power-exponential, log-hyperbolic, log-contaminated-normal, log-slash, Birnbaum-Saunders and Birnbaum-Saunders-t distributions.

Determines Optimum Strata Boundaries (OSB) and Optimum Sample Sizes (OSS) for univariate stratified sampling designs under Neyman allocation. The stratification variable is described by a best-fitting parametric distribution, selected automatically by AIC from a set of continuous families (normal, log-normal, gamma, Weibull, exponential, Cauchy, uniform, Pareto, triangular and right-triangular), and the optimum boundaries are obtained by minimising the Neyman objective. Version 2.0 keeps the Dynamic Programming (DP) solver of Reddy and Khan (2020), which is globally optimal for the fitted distribution, as the default. It adds two fast derivative-free solvers, a multi-start COBYLA solver and a two-phase global solver that couples DIRECT-L with BOBYQA refinement, and an exact solver that runs dynamic programming on the sorted data and returns the partition with the smallest empirical Neyman cost. It also provides cost-constrained allocation with unequal per-stratum costs, a design-efficiency comparison (compare_designs), two- and three-dimensional and interactive visualisations, solution-quality diagnostics (a Cauchy-Schwarz optimality gap and KKT first-order residuals for the derivative-free solvers) and a self-contained shiny application, while remaining backward compatible with the strata.data() and strata.distr() interface of version 1.x. The methodology follows Khan et al. (2008) <https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/12-001-x/2008002/article/10761-eng.pdf>, Reddy and Khan (2018) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12244> and Reddy and Khan (2020) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12301>.

Analyses population health survey data from the World Health Organization (WHO) Stepwise Approach to Non-Communicable Disease (NCD) Risk Factor Surveillance (STEPS), Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS), Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys (MICS), and similar complex sample surveys, where chronic conditions are self-reported rather than coded using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and estimates must account for stratification, clustering, and sampling weights. Includes a self-reported multimorbidity index based on the Functional Comorbidity Index (FCI) described by Groll et al. (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.jclinepi.2004.10.018>, design-weighted population prevalence estimation via the survey package, a survey-weighted concentration index for health inequality analysis, a DHS anthropometric z-score categoriser, a choropleth mapping helper, and exploratory survey-weighted gradient boosting (via xgboost') with SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) based explainability. The gradient boosting component applies case weights but does not yet propagate cluster and strata design effects into variance estimates; it should be treated as exploratory rather than as design-based inference.

This package provides tools to export Shiny applications written in R or Python as standalone desktop applications using Electron'. The applications run as native, cross-platform programs. Depending on the runtime strategy chosen, end users do not need R or Python installed on their machine.

Semiparametric Estimation of Stochastic Frontier Models following a two step procedure: in the first step semiparametric or nonparametric regression techniques are used to relax parametric restrictions of the functional form representing technology and in the second step variance parameters are obtained by pseudolikelihood estimators or by method of moments.

Allows to map species richness and endemism based on stacked species distribution models (SSDM). Individuals SDMs can be created using a single or multiple algorithms (ensemble SDMs). For each species, an SDM can yield a habitat suitability map, a binary map, a between-algorithm variance map, and can assess variable importance, algorithm accuracy, and between- algorithm correlation. Methods to stack individual SDMs include summing individual probabilities and thresholding then summing. Thresholding can be based on a specific evaluation metric or by drawing repeatedly from a Bernoulli distribution. The SSDM package also provides a user-friendly interface.

Takes as input a stable oxygen isotope (d18O) profile measured in growth direction (D) through a shell + uncertainties in both variables (d18O_err & D_err). It then models the seasonality in the d18O record by fitting a combination of a growth and temperature sine wave to year-length chunks of the data (see Judd et al., (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.09.034>). This modeling is carried out along a sliding window through the data and yields estimates of the day of the year (Julian Day) and local growth rate for each data point. Uncertainties in both modeling routine and the data itself are propagated and pooled to obtain a confidence envelope around the age of each data point in the shell. The end result is a shell chronology consisting of estimated ages of shell formation relative to the annual cycle with their uncertainties. All formulae in the package serve this purpose, but the user can customize the model (e.g. number of days in a year and the mineralogy of the shell carbonate) through input parameters.

This package implements multi-study learning algorithms such as merging, the study-specific ensemble (trained-on-observed-studies ensemble) the study strap, the covariate-matched study strap, covariate-profile similarity weighting, and stacking weights. Embedded within the caret framework, this package allows for a wide range of single-study learners (e.g., neural networks, lasso, random forests). The package offers over 20 default similarity measures and allows for specification of custom similarity measures for covariate-profile similarity weighting and an accept/reject step. This implements methods described in Loewinger, Kishida, Patil, and Parmigiani. (2019) <doi:10.1101/856385>.

Supports simulating choice experiment data for given designs. It helps to quickly test different designs against each other and compare the performance of new models. The goal of simulateDCE is to make it easy to simulate choice experiment datasets using designs from NGENE', idefix or spdesign'. You have to store the design file(s) in a sub-directory and need to specify certain parameters and the utility functions for the data generating process. For more details on choice experiments see Mariel et al. (2021) <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-62669-3>.
