This dataset was collected using a new four-arm within-study comparison design. The study aimed to examine the impact of a mathematics training intervention and a vocabulary study session on post-test scores in mathematics and vocabulary, respectively. The innovative four-arm within-study comparison design facilitates both experimental and quasi-experimental identification of average causal effects.

Builds a joint probabilistic forecast across series and horizons using adaptive copulas (Gaussian/t) with shrinkage-repaired correlations. At the low level it calls a probabilistic mixer per series and horizon, which backtests several simple predictors, predicts next-window Continuous Ranked Probability Score (CRPS), and converts those scores into softmax weights to form a calibrated mixture (r/q/p/dfun). The mixer blends eight simple predictors: a naive predictor that wraps the last move in a PERT distribution; an arima predictor using auto.arima for one-step forecasts; an Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) gaussian predictor with mean/variance under a Gaussian; a historical bootstrap predictor that resamples past horizon-aligned moves; a drift residual bootstrap predictor combining linear trend with bootstrapped residuals; a volatility-scaled naive predictor centering on the last move and scaling by recent volatility; a robust median mad predictor using median/MAD with Laplace or Normal shape; and a shrunk quantile predictor that fits a few quantile regressions over time and interpolates to a full predictive. The function then couples the per-series mixtures on a common transform (additive/multiplicative/log-multiplicative), simulates coherent draws, and returns both transformed- and level-scale samplers and summaries.

This package provides functions for the import, transformation, and analysis of data from muscle physiology experiments. The work loop technique is used to evaluate the mechanical work and power output of muscle. Josephson (1985) <doi:10.1242/jeb.114.1.493> modernized the technique for application in comparative biomechanics. Although our initial motivation was to provide functions to analyze work loop experiment data, as we developed the package we incorporated the ability to analyze data from experiments that are often complementary to work loops. There are currently three supported experiment types: work loops, simple twitches, and tetanus trials. Data can be imported directly from .ddf files or via an object constructor function. Through either method, data can then be cleaned or transformed via methods typically used in studies of muscle physiology. Data can then be analyzed to determine the timing and magnitude of force development and relaxation (for isometric trials) or the magnitude of work, net power, and instantaneous power among other things (for work loops). Although we do not provide plotting functions, all resultant objects are designed to be friendly to visualization via either base-R plotting or tidyverse functions. This package has been peer-reviewed by rOpenSci (v. 1.1.0).

Run mixed-effects models that include weights at every level. The WeMix package fits a weighted mixed model, also known as a multilevel, mixed, or hierarchical linear model (HLM). The weights could be inverse selection probabilities, such as those developed for an education survey where schools are sampled probabilistically, and then students inside of those schools are sampled probabilistically. Although mixed-effects models are already available in R, WeMix is unique in implementing methods for mixed models using weights at multiple levels. Both linear and logit models are supported. Models may have up to three levels. Random effects are estimated using the PIRLS algorithm from lme4pureR (Walker and Bates (2013) <https://github.com/lme4/lme4pureR>).

This package provides a computationally efficient way of fitting weighted linear fixed effects estimators for causal inference with various weighting schemes. Weighted linear fixed effects estimators can be used to estimate the average treatment effects under different identification strategies. This includes stratified randomized experiments, matching and stratification for observational studies, first differencing, and difference-in-differences. The package implements methods described in Imai and Kim (2017) "When should We Use Linear Fixed Effects Regression Models for Causal Inference with Longitudinal Data?", available at <https://imai.fas.harvard.edu/research/FEmatch.html>.

Allows users to create weighted confusion matrices and accuracy metrics that help with the model selection process for classification problems, where distance from the correct category is important. The package includes several weighting schemes which can be parameterized, as well as custom configuration options. Furthermore, users can decide whether they wish to positively or negatively affect the accuracy score as a result of applying weights to the confusion matrix. Functions are included to calculate accuracy metrics for imbalanced data. Finally, wconf integrates well with the caret package, but it can also work standalone when provided data in matrix form.

This package provides a set of functions to implement decision-making systems based on the W.A.S.P.A.S. method (Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment), Chakraborty and Zavadskas (2012) <doi:10.5755/j01.eee.122.6.1810>. So this package offers functions that analyze and validate the raw data, which must be entered in a determined format; extract specific vectors and matrices from this raw database; normalize the input data; calculate rankings by intermediate methods; apply the lambda parameter for the main method; and a function that does everything at once. The package has an example database called choppers, with which the user can see how the input data should be organized so that everything works as recommended by the decision methods based on multiple criteria that this package solves. Basically, the data are composed of a set of alternatives, which will be ranked, a set of choice criteria, a matrix of values for each Alternative-Criterion relationship, a vector of weights associated with the criteria, since certain criteria are considered more important than others, as well as a vector that defines each criterion as cost or benefit, this determines the calculation formula, as there are those criteria that we want the highest possible value (e.g. durability) and others that we want the lowest possible value (e.g. price).

The wavelet-based quantile mapping (WQM) technique is designed to correct biases in spatio-temporal precipitation forecasts across multiple time scales. The WQM method effectively enhances forecast accuracy by generating an ensemble of precipitation forecasts that account for uncertainties in the prediction process. For a comprehensive overview of the methodologies employed in this package, please refer to Jiang, Z., and Johnson, F. (2023) <doi:10.1029/2022EF003350>. The package relies on two packages for continuous wavelet transforms: WaveletComp', which can be installed automatically, and wmtsa', which is optional and available from the CRAN archive <https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/wmtsa/>. Users need to manually install wmtsa from this archive if they prefer to use wmtsa based decomposition.

The main functionalities of wrappedtools are: adding backticks to variable names; rounding to desired precision with special case for p-values; selecting columns based on pattern and storing their position, name, and backticked name; computing and formatting of descriptive statistics (e.g. mean±SD), comparing groups and creating publication-ready tables with descriptive statistics and p-values; creating specialized plots for correlation matrices. Functions were mainly written for my own daily work or teaching, but may be of use to others as well.

This package provides a series of tools to compute and plot quantities related to classical and robust wavelet variance for time series and regular lattices. More details can be found, for example, in Serroukh, A., Walden, A.T., & Percival, D.B. (2000) <doi:10.2307/2669537> and Guerrier, S. & Molinari, R. (2016) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1607.05858>.

Interactive tools for generating random samples. Users select an .xlsx, .csv, or delimited .txt file with population data and are walked through selecting the sample type (Simple Random Sample or Stratified), the number of backups desired, and a "stratify_on" value (if desired). The sample size is determined using a normal approximation to the hypergeometric distribution based on Nicholson (1956) <doi:10.1214/aoms/1177728270>. An .xlsx file is created with the sample and key metadata for reference. It is menu-driven and lets users pick an output directory. See vignettes for a detailed walk-through.

This package provides unified syntax to write data from lazy dplyr tbl or dplyr sql query or a dataframe to a database table with modes such as create, append, insert, update, upsert, patch, delete, overwrite, overwrite_schema.

Spatial data are generally auto-correlated, meaning that if two units selected are close to each other, then it is likely that they share the same properties. For this reason, when sampling in the population it is often needed that the sample is well spread over space. A new method to draw a sample from a population with spatial coordinates is proposed. This method is called wave (Weakly Associated Vectors) sampling. It uses the less correlated vector to a spatial weights matrix to update the inclusion probabilities vector into a sample. For more details see Raphaël Jauslin and Yves Tillé (2019) <doi:10.1007/s13253-020-00407-1>.
