This package provides a tool to define the rare biosphere. ulrb solves the problem of the definition of rarity by replacing arbitrary thresholds with an unsupervised machine learning algorithm (partitioning around medoids, or k-medoids). This algorithm works for any type of microbiome data, provided there is an abundance table. This method also works for non-microbiome data.

Versatile method for ungrouping histograms (binned count data) assuming that counts are Poisson distributed and that the underlying sequence on a fine grid to be estimated is smooth. The method is based on the composite link model and estimation is achieved by maximizing a penalized likelihood. Smooth detailed sequences of counts and rates are so estimated from the binned counts. Ungrouping binned data can be desirable for many reasons: Bins can be too coarse to allow for accurate analysis; comparisons can be hindered when different grouping approaches are used in different histograms; and the last interval is often wide and open-ended and, thus, covers a lot of information in the tail area. Age-at-death distributions grouped in age classes and abridged life tables are examples of binned data. Because of modest assumptions, the approach is suitable for many demographic and epidemiological applications. For a detailed description of the method and applications see Rizzi et al. (2015) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwv020>.

Historical voting data of the United Nations General Assembly. This includes votes for each country in each roll call, as well as descriptions and topic classifications for each vote.

This package provides a tool for checking how much information is disclosed when reporting summary statistics.

This package performs a test for second-order stationarity of time series based on unsystematic sub-samples.

United is a software tool which can be downloaded at the following website <http://www.schroepl.net/pbm/software/united/>. In general, it is a virtual manager game for football teams. This package contains helpful functions for determining an optimal formation for a virtual match in United. E.g. knowing that the opponent has a strong defensive it is advisable to beat him in the midfield. Furthermore, this package contains functions for computing the optimal usage of hardness in a game.

Compiled and cleaned the county-level estimates of fertilizer, nitrogen and phosphorus, from 1945 to 2012 in United States of America (USA). The commercial fertilizer data were originally generated by USGS based on the sales data of commercial fertilizer. The manure data were estimated based on county-level population data of livestock, poultry, and other animals. See the user manual for detailed data sources and cleaning methods. usfertilizer utilized the tidyverse to clean the original data and provide user-friendly dataframe. Please note that USGS does not endorse this package. Also data from 1986 is not available for now.

This package implements Minimum Torsion for portfolio diversification as described in Meucci, Attilio (2013) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.2276632>.

This package provides S3 generic methods and some default implementations for Bayesian analyses that generate Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) samples. The purpose of universals is to reduce package dependencies and conflicts. The nlist package implements many of the methods for its nlist class.

Fetch United States Congressional Records from their API <https://api.govinfo.gov/docs/> such as congressional speeches, speaker names, and metadata about congressional sessions, and detailed granule records. Optional parameters allow users to specify congressional sessions, and the maximum number of speeches to retrieve. Data is parsed, cleaned, and returned in a structured dataframe for analysis.

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.

S3 classes and methods for manipulation with georeferenced raster data: reading/writing, processing, multi-panel visualization.

This package provides an overview of the demand for natural gas in the US by state and country level. Data source: US Energy Information Administration <https://www.eia.gov/>.

Provide a set of wrappers to call all the endpoints of UptimeRobot API which includes various kind of ping, keep-alive and speed tests. See <https://uptimerobot.com/> for more information.

This package provides tools for assigning molecular formulas from exact masses obtained by ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry. The methodology follows the workflow described in Leefmann et al. (2019) <doi:10.1002/rcm.8315>. The package supports the inspection, filtering and visualization of molecular formula data and includes utilities for calculating common molecular parameters (e.g., double bond equivalents, DBE). A graphical user interface is available via the shiny'-based ume application.

This package provides functions and a Shiny application for downloading, analyzing and visualizing datasets from UCSC Xena (<http://xena.ucsc.edu/>), which is a collection of UCSC-hosted public databases such as TCGA, ICGC, TARGET, GTEx, CCLE, and others.

This program realizes a universal estimation approach that accommodates multi-category variables and effect scales, making up for the deficiencies of the existing approaches when dealing with non-binary exposures and complex models. The estimation via bootstrapping can simultaneously provide results of causal mediation on risk difference (RD), odds ratio (OR) and risk ratio (RR) scales with tests of the effects difference. The estimation is also applicable to many other settings, e.g., moderated mediation, inconsistent covariates, panel data, etc. The high flexibility and compatibility make it possible to apply for any type of model, greatly meeting the needs of current empirical researches.

This package provides a unified R6-based interface for various machine learning models with automatic interface detection, consistent cross-validation, model interpretations via numerical derivatives, and visualization. Supports both regression and classification tasks with any model function that follows R's standard modeling conventions (formula or matrix interface).

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.

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.

Calculates one-sample unbiased central moment estimates and two-sample pooled estimates up to 6th order, including estimates of powers and products of central moments. Provides the machinery for obtaining unbiased central moment estimators beyond 6th order by generating expressions for expectations of raw sample moments and their powers and products.
