This package provides drop-in replacements for functions from the stringr package, with the same user interface. These functions have no external dependencies and can be copied directly into your package code using the staticimports package.

Automatically replaces "misspelled" words in a character vector based on their string distance from a list of words sorted by their frequency in a corpus. The default word list provided in the package comes from the Corpus of Contemporary American English. Uses the Jaro-Winkler distance metric for string similarity as implemented in van der Loo (2014) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2014-011>. The word frequency data is derived from Davies (2008-) "The Corpus of Contemporary American English (COCA)" <https://www.english-corpora.org/coca/>.

Single-cell Interpretable Tensor Decomposition (scITD) employs the Tucker tensor decomposition to extract multicell-type gene expression patterns that vary across donors/individuals. This tool is geared for use with single-cell RNA-sequencing datasets consisting of many source donors. The method has a wide range of potential applications, including the study of inter-individual variation at the population-level, patient sub-grouping/stratification, and the analysis of sample-level batch effects. Each "multicellular process" that is extracted consists of (A) a multi cell type gene loadings matrix and (B) a corresponding donor scores vector indicating the level at which the corresponding loadings matrix is expressed in each donor. Additional methods are implemented to aid in selecting an appropriate number of factors and to evaluate stability of the decomposition. Additional tools are provided for downstream analysis, including integration of gene set enrichment analysis and ligand-receptor analysis. Tucker, L.R. (1966) <doi:10.1007/BF02289464>.

Researchers have been using simulated data from a multivariate linear model to compare and evaluate different methods, ideas and models. Additionally, teachers and educators have been using a simulation tool to demonstrate and teach various statistical and machine learning concepts. This package helps users to simulate linear model data with a wide range of properties by tuning few parameters such as relevant latent components. In addition, a shiny app as an RStudio gadget gives users a simple interface for using the simulation function. See more on: Sæbø, S., Almøy, T., Helland, I.S.

The past decade has demonstrated an increased need to better understand risks leading to systemic crises. This framework offers scholars, practitioners and policymakers a useful toolbox to explore such risks in financial systems. Specifically, this framework provides popular econometric and network measures to monitor systemic risk and to measure the consequences of regulatory decisions. These systemic risk measures are based on the frameworks of Adrian and Brunnermeier (2016) <doi:10.1257/aer.20120555> and Billio, Getmansky, Lo and Pelizzon (2012) <doi:10.1016/j.jfineco.2011.12.010>.

This package provides tests for segregation distortion in F1 polyploid populations under different assumptions of meiosis. These tests can account for double reduction, partial preferential pairing, and genotype uncertainty through the use of genotype likelihoods. Parallelization support is provided. Details of these methods are described in Gerard et al. (2025a) <doi:10.1007/s00122-025-04816-z> and Gerard et al. (2025b) <doi:10.1101/2025.06.23.661114>.

Implementation of sequential trial emulation for the analysis of observational databases. The SEQTaRget software accommodates time-varying treatments and confounders, as well as binary and failure time outcomes. SEQTaRget allows to compare both static and dynamic strategies, can be used to estimate observational analogs of intention-to-treat and per-protocol effects, and can adjust for potential selection bias induced by losses-to-follow-up. (Paper to come).

Generates random values from a univariate and multivariate continuous distribution by using kernel density estimation based on a sample. Duong (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v021.i07>, Christian P. Robert and George Casella (2010 ISBN:978-1-4419-1575-7) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4419-1576-4>.

This package implements methods for obtaining kernel density estimates subject to a variety of shape constraints (unimodality, bimodality, symmetry, tail monotonicity, bounds, and constraints on the number of inflection points). Enforcing constraints can eliminate unwanted waves or kinks in the estimate, which improves its subjective appearance and can also improve statistical performance. The main function scdensity() is very similar to the density() function in stats', allowing shape-restricted estimates to be obtained with little effort. The methods implemented in this package are described in Wolters and Braun (2017) <doi:10.1080/03610918.2017.1288247>, Wolters (2012) <doi:10.18637/jss.v047.i06>, and Hall and Huang (2002) <https://www3.stat.sinica.edu.tw/statistica/j12n4/j12n41/j12n41.htm>.

We provide functionality to implement penalized PCA with an option to smooth the objective function using Nesterov smoothing. Two functions are available to compute a user-specified number of eigenvectors. The function unsmoothed_penalized_EV() computes a penalized PCA without smoothing and has three parameters (the input matrix, the Lasso penalty, and the number of desired eigenvectors). The function smoothed_penalized_EV() computes a smoothed penalized PCA using the same parameters and additionally requires the specification of a smoothing parameter. Both functions return a matrix having the desired eigenvectors as columns.

This package provides a series of checks to identify common issues in Study Data Tabulation Model (SDTM) datasets. These checks are intended to be generalizable, actionable, and meaningful for analysis.

This package implements a general algorithm for estimating Sparse Multiple Index (SMI) models for nonparametric forecasting and prediction. Estimation of SMI models requires the Gurobi mixed integer programming (MIP) solver via the gurobi R package. To use this functionality, the Gurobi Optimizer must be installed, and a valid license obtained and activated from <https://www.gurobi.com>. The gurobi R package must then be installed and configured following the instructions at <https://support.gurobi.com/hc/en-us/articles/14462206790033-How-do-I-install-Gurobi-for-R>. The package also includes functions for fitting nonparametric additive models with backward elimination, group-wise additive index models, and projection pursuit regression models as benchmark comparison methods. In addition, it provides tools for generating prediction intervals to quantify uncertainty in point forecasts produced by the SMI model and benchmark models, using the classical block bootstrap and a new method called conformal bootstrap, which integrates block bootstrap with split conformal prediction.

Simple implementation of Semantic Versioning 2.0.0 ('SemVer') on the vctrs package. This package provides a simple way to create, compare, and manipulate semantic versions in R. It is designed to be lightweight and easy to use.

It helps in determination of sample size for estimation of population mean and proportion based upon the availability of prior information on coefficient of variation (CV) of the population under Simple Random Sampling (SRS) with or without replacement sampling design. If there is no prior information on the population CV, then a small preliminary sample of size is selected to estimate the population CV which is then used for determination of final sample size. If the final sample size is more than the preliminary sample size, then the preliminary sample is augmented by drawing additional units from the remaining population units so that the size of the augmented sample is equal to the final sample size. On the other hand, if the preliminary sample size is larger than the final sample size, then the preliminary sample is considered as the final sample.

This package provides a general spatiotemporal satellite image imputation method based on sparse functional data analytic techniques. The imputation method applies and extends the Functional Principal Analysis by Conditional Estimation (PACE). The underlying idea for the proposed procedure is to impute a missing pixel by borrowing information from temporally and spatially contiguous pixels based on the best linear unbiased prediction.
