An implementation of Lind and Mehlum's (2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1468-0084.2009.00569.x> Utest to test for the presence of a U shaped or inverted U shaped relationship between variables in (generalized) linear models. It also implements a test of upward/downward sloping relationships at the lower and upper boundary of the data range.

Enables the user to calculate Value at Risk (VaR) and Expected Shortfall (ES) by means of various parametric and semiparametric GARCH-type models. For the latter the estimation of the nonparametric scale function is carried out by means of a data-driven smoothing approach. Model quality, in terms of forecasting VaR and ES, can be assessed by means of various backtesting methods such as the traffic light test for VaR and a newly developed traffic light test for ES. The approaches implemented in this package are described in e.g. Feng Y., Beran J., Letmathe S. and Ghosh S. (2020) <https://ideas.repec.org/p/pdn/ciepap/137.html> as well as Letmathe S., Feng Y. and Uhde A. (2021) <https://ideas.repec.org/p/pdn/ciepap/141.html>.

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.

This package contains a WGS84 datum map of the USA, which includes all Commonwealth and State boundaries & also includes Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. This map is a reprojection of the NAD83 datum map from the USGS National Map. This package contains a subset of the data included in the USA.state.boundaries.data package, which is available in a drat repository. To install that data package, please follow the instructions at <https://gitlab.com/iembry/usa.state.boundaries.data>.

This is a new version of the userfriendlyscience package, which has grown a bit unwieldy. Therefore, distinct functionalities are being consciously uncoupled into different packages. This package contains the general-purpose tools and utilities (see the behaviorchange package, the rosetta package, and the soon-to-be-released scd package for other functionality), and is the most direct successor of the original userfriendlyscience package. For example, this package contains a number of basic functions to create higher level plots, such as diamond plots, to easily plot sampling distributions, to generate confidence intervals, to plan study sample sizes for confidence intervals, and to do some basic operations such as (dis)attenuate effect size estimates.

This package provides a framework for estimating difference-in-differences with unpoolable data, based on Karim, Webb, Austin, and Strumpf (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2403.15910>. Supports common or staggered adoption, multiple groups, and the inclusion of covariates. Also computes p-values for the aggregate average treatment effect on the treated via the randomization inference procedure described in MacKinnon and Webb (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2020.04.024>.

This package provides a simple interface to the Geographic Header information from the "2010 US Census Summary File 2". The entire Summary File 2 is described at <https://catalog.data.gov/dataset/census-2000-summary-file-2-sf2>, but note that this package only provides access to parts of the geographic header ('geoheader') of the file. In particular, only the first 101 columns of the geoheader are included and, more importantly, only rows with summary levels (SUMLEVs) 010 through 050 (nation down through county level) are included. In addition to access to (part of) the geoheader, the package also provides a decode function that takes a column name and value and, for certain columns, returns "the meaning" of that column (i.e., a "SUMLEV" value of 40 means "State"); without a value, the decode function attempts to describe the column itself.

This package provides a set of functions leading to multivariate response L1 regression. This includes functions on computing Euclidean inner products and norms, weighted least squares estimates on multivariate responses, function to compute fitted values and residuals. This package is a companion to the book "U-Statistics, M-estimation and Resampling", by Arup Bose and Snigdhansu Chatterjee, to appear in 2017 as part of the "Texts and Readings in Mathematics" (TRIM) series of Hindustan Book Agency and Springer-Verlag.

In many phase I trials, the design goal is to find the dose associated with a certain target toxicity rate. In some trials, the goal can be to find the dose with a certain weighted sum of rates of various toxicity grades. For others, the goal is to find the dose with a certain mean value of a continuous response. This package provides the setup and calculations needed to run a dose-finding trial with non-binary endpoints and performs simulations to assess designâ s operating characteristics under various scenarios. Three dose finding designs are included in this package: unified phase I design (Ivanova et al. (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2008.01045.x>), Quasi-CRM/Robust-Quasi-CRM (Yuan et al. (2007) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2006.00666.x>, Pan et al. (2014) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0098147>) and generalized BOIN design (Mu et al. (2018) <doi:10.1111/rssc.12263>). The toxicity endpoints can be handled with these functions including equivalent toxicity score (ETS), total toxicity burden (TTB), general continuous toxicity endpoints, with incorporating ordinal grade toxicity information into dose-finding procedure. These functions allow customization of design characteristics to vary sample size, cohort sizes, target dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) rates, discrete or continuous toxicity score, and incorporate safety and/or stopping rules.

By gaining the property of emergence through self-organization, the enhancement of SOMs(self organizing maps) is called Emergent SOM (ESOM). The result of the projection by ESOM is a grid of neurons which can be visualised as a three dimensional landscape in form of the Umatrix. Further details can be found in the referenced publications (see url). This package offers tools for calculating and visualising the ESOM as well as Umatrix, Pmatrix and UStarMatrix. All the functionality is also available through graphical user interfaces implemented in shiny'. Based on the recognized data structures, the method can be used to generate new data.

This package implements the Gaussian method of first and second order, the Kragten numerical method and the Monte Carlo simulation method for uncertainty estimation and analysis.

Clustering and classification inference for high dimension low sample size (HDLSS) data with U-statistics. The package contains implementations of nonparametric statistical tests for sample homogeneity, group separation, clustering, and classification of multivariate data. The methods have high statistical power and are tailored for data in which the dimension L is much larger than sample size n. See Gabriela B. Cybis, Marcio Valk and SÃ lvia RC Lopes (2018) <doi:10.1080/00949655.2017.1374387>, Marcio Valk and Gabriela B. Cybis (2020) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2020.1796398>, Debora Z. Bello, Marcio Valk and Gabriela B. Cybis (2021) <arXiv:2106.09115>.

Two Phase I designs are implemented in the package: the classical 3+3 and the Continual Reassessment Method (<doi:10.2307/2531628>). Simulations tools are also available to estimate the operating characteristics of the methods with several user-dependent options.

If a procedure consists of several stages and there are several models that can be selected for each stage, uncertainty of the procedure can be decomposed by stages or models. This package includes the ANOVA-based method, the cumulative uncertainty-based method, and the balanced decomposition method. Yongdai Kim et al. (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.hydroa.2019.100024> is a related paper which is accessible via the URL below.

Returns a data frame with the names of the input data points and hex colors (or CIELab coordinates). Data can be mapped to colors for use in data visualization. It optimally maps data points into a polygon that represents the CIELab colour space. Since Euclidean distance approximates relative perceptual differences in CIELab color space, the result is a color encoding that aims to capture much of the structure of the original data.

This package provides tools for converting data from complex or irregular layouts to a columnar structure. For example, tables with multilevel column or row headers, or spreadsheets. Header and data cells are selected by their contents and position, as well as formatting and comments where available, and are associated with one other by their proximity in given directions. Functions for data frames and HTML tables are provided.

This package provides tools for fitting and assessing Bayesian multilevel regression models that account for unmeasured confounders.

Predicts a smooth and continuous (individual) utility function from utility points, and computes measures of intensity for risk and higher-order risk measures (or any other measure computed with user-written function) based on this utility function and its derivatives according to the method introduced in Schneider (2017) <http://hdl.handle.net/21.11130/00-1735-0000-002E-E306-0>.

This is a framework that aims to provide methods and tools for assessing the impact of different sources of uncertainties (e.g.positional uncertainty) on performance of species distribution models (SDMs).).

Fit a univariate-guided sparse regression (lasso), by a two-stage procedure. The first stage fits p separate univariate models to the response. The second stage gives more weight to the more important univariate features, and preserves their signs. Conveniently, it returns an objects that inherits from class glmnet', so that all of the methods for glmnet are available. See Chatterjee, Hastie and Tibshirani (2025) <doi:10.1162/99608f92.c79ff6db> for details.
