This package provides functions for constructing screening designs for experiments involving three-level continuous and two-level categorical factors. The package implements three methods proposed by Jones, B., Lekivetz, R., Majumdar, D. and Nachtsheim, C. (2025) <doi:10.1080/00401706.2024.2362149> for generating efficient screening designs for even run sizes. It also includes functions for constructing conference matrices using Paley Type I and Type II constructions, as well as construction of pseudo conference matrices by coordinate exchange algorithm given by Jones, B. and Nachtsheim, C. J. (2011) <doi:10.1080/00224065.2011.11917841> which are used in the development of these screening designs.

Capable of deriving seasonal statistics, such as "normals", and analysis of seasonal data, such as departures. This package also has graphics capabilities for representing seasonal data, including boxplots for seasonal parameters, and bars for summed normals. There are many specific functions related to climatology, including precipitation normals, temperature normals, cumulative precipitation departures and precipitation interarrivals. However, this package is designed to represent any time-varying parameter with a discernible seasonal signal, such as found in hydrology and ecology.

Selects invalid instruments amongst a candidate of potentially bad instruments. The algorithm selects potentially invalid instruments and provides an estimate of the causal effect between exposure and outcome.

Univariate and multivariate normal data simulation. They also supply a brief summary of the analysis for each experiment/design: - Independent samples. - One-way and two-way Anova. - Paired samples (T-Test & Regression). - Repeated measures (Anova & Multiple Regression). - Clinical Assay.

This package provides an all-in-one solution for automatic classification of sound events using convolutional neural networks (CNN). The main purpose is to provide a sound classification workflow, from annotating sound events in recordings to training and automating model usage in real-life situations. Using the package requires a pre-compiled collection of recordings with sound events of interest and it can be employed for: 1) Annotation: create a database of annotated recordings, 2) Training: prepare train data from annotated recordings and fit CNN models, 3) Classification: automate the use of the fitted model for classifying new recordings. By using automatic feature selection and a user-friendly GUI for managing data and training/deploying models, this package is intended to be used by a broad audience as it does not require specific expertise in statistics, programming or sound analysis.

These are tools that allow users to do time series diagnostics, primarily tests of unit root, by way of simulation. While there is nothing necessarily wrong with the received wisdom of critical values generated decades ago, simulation provides its own perks. Not only is simulation broadly informative as to what these various test statistics do and what are their plausible values, simulation provides more flexibility for assessing unit root by way of different thresholds or different hypothesized distributions.

This package implements a method to combine multiple levels of multiple sequence alignment to uncover the structure of complex DNA rearrangements.

Identifies constant, additive, multiplicative, and user-defined simplivariate components in numeric data matrices using a genetic algorithm. Supports flexible pattern definitions and provides visualization for general biclustering applications across diverse domains. The method builds on simplivariate models as introduced in Hageman et al. (2008) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0003259> and is related to biclustering frameworks as reviewed by Madeira and Oliveira (2004) <doi:10.1109/TCBB.2004.2>.

Easily use Blueprint', the popular React library from Palantir, in your Shiny app. Blueprint provides a rich set of UI components for creating visually appealing applications and is optimized for building complex, data-dense web interfaces. This package provides most components from the underlying library, as well as special wrappers for some components to make it easy to use them in R without writing JavaScript code.

Simulates the cultural evolution of quantitative traits of bird song. SongEvo is an individual- (agent-) based model. SongEvo is spatially-explicit and can be parameterized with, and tested against, measured song data. Functions are available for model implementation, sensitivity analyses, parameter optimization, model validation, and hypothesis testing.

Analysis of metacommunities based on functional traits and phylogeny of the community components. The functions that are offered here implement for the R environment methods that have been available in the SYNCSA application written in C++ (by Valerio Pillar, available at <http://ecoqua.ecologia.ufrgs.br/SYNCSA.html>).

Makes it possible to serve map tiles for web maps (e.g. leaflet) based on a function or a stars object without having to render them in advance. This enables parallelization of the rendering, separating the data source and visualization location and to provide web services.

This package provides reusable functions for aggregated cluster-period data, mixed-effects analysis, and simulation-based power and type I error evaluation in stepped-wedge cluster randomized trials. The design and mixed-effects analysis follow Hussey and Hughes (2007) <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2006.05.007>. Intraclass correlations for binary outcomes are converted to logistic-normal random-intercept standard deviations following Eldridge, Ukoumunne and Carlin (2009) <doi:10.1111/j.1751-5823.2009.00092.x>. Monte Carlo uncertainty in estimated power is summarized using the exact binomial interval of Clopper and Pearson (1934) <doi:10.1093/biomet/26.4.404>. The simulation engine supports sequence-specific baseline risks, cluster random effects, direct intraclass-correlation specification, Monte Carlo uncertainty intervals, and model-fitting diagnostics. Applied physician and specialty helpers are retained for backward compatibility and for an example health-services workflow.

This package provides an interface to search, read, query, and retrieve metadata for datasets hosted on Socrata open data portals. Supports all Socrata data types, including spatial data returned as sf objects.

Enables instrumentation of Shiny apps for tracking user session events such as input changes, browser type, and session duration. These events can be sent to any of the available storage backends and analyzed using the included Shiny app to gain insights about app usage and adoption.

This package provides a system that computes metrics to assess the segmentation accuracy of geospatial data. These metrics calculate the discrepancy between segmented and reference objects, and indicate the segmentation accuracy. For more details on choosing evaluation metrics, we suggest seeing Costa et al. (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.rse.2017.11.024> and Jozdani et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.isprsjprs.2020.01.002>.

This package implements the sparse-group lasso method of Zhang et al. (2020) <doi:10.1007/s10107-018-1329-6>. Unlike many widely available methods based on first-order descent, this method uses second-order information to solve the dual optimization problem via a semismooth Newton method.

Calculation of solar zenith and azimuth angles.

This package provides functions are provided for internal use by the spatial capture-recapture package secr (from version 5.4.0). The idea is to speed up the installation of secr', and possibly reduce its size. Initially the functions are those for area and transect search that use numerical integration code from RcppNumerical and RcppEigen'. The functions are not intended to be user-friendly and require considerable preprocessing of data.
