Calculating home ranges and movements of animals in complex stream environments is often challenging, and standard home range estimators do not apply. This package provides a series of tools for assessing movements in a stream network, such as calculating the total length of stream used, distances between points, and movement patterns over time. See Vignette for additional details. This package was originally released on GitHub under the name SNM'. SNMA was developed for analyses in McKnight et al. (2025) <doi:10.3354/esr01442> which contains additional examples and information.

This package performs sensitivity analysis for Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). It determines which sample points need to be removed for the sign of a specific path in the SEM model to change, thus assessing the robustness of the model. Methodological manuscript in preparation.

This package provides a framework for performing discrete (share-level) simulations of investment strategies. Simulated portfolios optimize exposure to an input signal subject to constraints such as position size and factor exposure. For background see L. Chincarini and D. Kim (2010, ISBN:978-0-07-145939-6) "Quantitative Equity Portfolio Management".

Sensitivity to unmeasured biases in an observational study that is a full match. Function senfm() performs tests and function senfmCI() creates confidence intervals. The method uses Huber's M-statistics, including least squares, and is described in Rosenbaum (2007, Biometrics) <DOI:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2006.00717.x>.

This package provides a function that behaves nearly as base::source() but implements a caching mechanism on disk, project based. It allows to quasi source() R scripts that gather data but can fail or consume to much time to respond even if nothing new is expected. It comes with tools to check and execute on demand or when cache is invalid the script.

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.

Takes one or more fitted Cox proportional hazards models and writes a shiny application to a directory specified by the user. The shiny application displays predicted survival curves based on user input, and contains none of the original data used to create the Cox model or models. The goal is towards visualization and presentation of predicted survival curves.

The SAVVY (Survival Analysis for AdVerse Events with VarYing Follow-Up Times) project is a consortium of academic and pharmaceutical industry partners that aims to improve the analyses of adverse event (AE) data in clinical trials through the use of survival techniques appropriately dealing with varying follow-up times and competing events, see Stegherr, Schmoor, Beyersmann, et al. (2021) <doi:10.1186/s13063-021-05354-x>. Although statistical methodologies have advanced, in AE analyses often the incidence proportion, the incidence density or a non-parametric Kaplan-Meier estimator are used, which either ignore censoring or competing events. This package contains functions to easily conduct the proposed improved AE analyses.

This package provides tools to generate, visualize, and audit geometric string art figures for mathematics teaching. The package includes functions for circular, cardioid-like, elliptical, triangular, polygonal, star, parabolic, net-based, radial, hexagonal, lotus-like, rose-like, spiral, Lissajous, grid-based, decimal, and contour-based string art patterns. Each function returns peg coordinates, connection tables, total string length, audit information, and metadata, supporting educational applications in geometry, analytic geometry, modular arithmetic, trigonometry, rational numbers, and visual mathematics.

This package provides functions that provide statistical methods for interval-censored (grouped) data. The package supports the estimation of linear and linear mixed regression models with interval-censored dependent variables. Parameter estimates are obtained by a stochastic expectation maximization algorithm. Furthermore, the package enables the direct (without covariates) estimation of statistical indicators from interval-censored data via an iterative kernel density algorithm. Survey and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) weights can be included into the direct estimation (see, Walter, P. (2019) <doi:10.17169/refubium-1621>).

This package provides tools for researchers to explicitly show that their results comply to rules for statistical disclosure control imposed by research data centers. These tools help in checking descriptive statistics and models and in calculating extreme values that are not individual data. Also included is a simple function to create log files. The methods used here are described in the "Guidelines for the checking of output based on microdata research" by Bond, Brandt, and de Wolf (2015) <https://cros.ec.europa.eu/system/files/2024-02/Output-checking-guidelines.pdf>.

In a clinical trial with repeated measures designs, outcomes are often taken from subjects at fixed time-points. The focus of the trial may be to compare the mean outcome in two or more groups at some pre-specified time after enrollment. In the presence of missing data auxiliary assumptions are necessary to perform such comparisons. One commonly employed assumption is the missing at random assumption (MAR). The samon package allows the user to perform a (parameterized) sensitivity analysis of this assumption. In particular it can be used to examine the sensitivity of tests in the difference in outcomes to violations of the MAR assumption. The sensitivity analysis can be performed under two scenarios, a) where the data exhibit a monotone missing data pattern (see the samon() function), and, b) where in addition to a monotone missing data pattern the data exhibit intermittent missing values (see the samonIM() function).

Computes the effective range of a smoothing matrix, which is a measure of the distance to which smoothing occurs. This is motivated by the application of spatial splines for adjusting for unmeasured spatial confounding in regression models, but the calculation of effective range can be applied to smoothing matrices in other contexts. For algorithmic details, see Rainey and Keller (2024) "spconfShiny: an R Shiny application..." <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0311440> and Keller and Szpiro (2020) "Selecting a Scale for Spatial Confounding Adjustment" <doi:10.1111/rssa.12556>.

Cluster-independent method based on topology structure of gene co-expression network for identifying feature gene sets, extracting cellular subpopulations, and elucidating intrinsic relationships among these subpopulations. Without prior cell clustering, SifiNet circumvents potential inaccuracies in clustering that may influence subsequent analyses. This method is introduced in Qi Gao, Zhicheng Ji, Liuyang Wang, Kouros Owzar, Qi-Jing Li, Cliburn Chan, Jichun Xie "SifiNet: a robust and accurate method to identify feature gene sets and annotate cells" (2024) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkae307>.

Toolbox for different kinds of spatio-temporal analyses to be performed on observed point patterns, following the growing stream of literature on point process theory. This R package implements functions to perform different kinds of analyses on point processes, proposed in the papers (Siino, Adelfio, and Mateu 2018<doi:10.1007/s00477-018-1579-0>; Siino et al. 2018<doi:10.1002/env.2463>; Adelfio et al. 2020<doi:10.1007/s00477-019-01748-1>; Dâ Angelo, Adelfio, and Mateu 2021<doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2021.100534>; Dâ Angelo, Adelfio, and Mateu 2022<doi:10.1007/s00362-022-01338-4>; Dâ Angelo, Adelfio, and Mateu 2023<doi:10.1016/j.csda.2022.107679>). The main topics include modeling, statistical inference, and simulation issues on spatio-temporal point processes on Euclidean space and linear networks. Version 1.0.0 has been updated for accompanying the journal publication D Angelo and Adelfio 2025 <doi:10.18637/jss.v113.i10>.

For a single, known pathogen phylogeny, provides functions for enumeration of the set of compatible epidemic transmission trees, and for uniform sampling from that set. Optional arguments allow for incomplete sampling with a known number of missing individuals, multiple sampling, and known infection time limits. Always assumed are a complete transmission bottleneck and no superinfection or reinfection. See Hall and Colijn (2019) <doi:10.1093/molbev/msz058> for methodology.

Computes sequential A-, MV-, D- and E-optimal or near-optimal block and row-column designs for two-colour cDNA microarray experiments using the linear fixed effects and mixed effects models where the interest is in a comparison of all possible elementary treatment contrasts. The package also provides an optional method of using the graphical user interface (GUI) R package tcltk to ensure that it is user friendly.

Artificial selection through selective breeding is an efficient way to induce changes in traits of interest in experimental populations. This package (sra) provides a set of tools to analyse artificial-selection response datasets. The data typically feature for several generations the average value of a trait in a population, the variance of the trait, the population size and the average value of the parents that were chosen to breed. Sra implements two families of models aiming at describing the dynamics of the genetic architecture of the trait during the selection response. The first family relies on purely descriptive (phenomenological) models, based on an autoregressive framework. The second family provides different mechanistic models, accounting e.g. for inbreeding, mutations, genetic and environmental canalization, or epistasis. The parameters underlying the dynamics of the time series are estimated by maximum likelihood. The sra package thus provides (i) a wrapper for the R functions mle() and optim() aiming at fitting in a convenient way a predetermined set of models, and (ii) some functions to plot and analyze the output of the models.
