Written to help undergraduate as well as graduate students to get started with R for basic econometrics without the need to import specific functions and datasets from many different sources. Primarily, the package is meant to accompany the German textbook Auer, L.v., Hoffmann, S., Kranz, T. (2024, ISBN: 978-3-662-68263-0) from which the exercises cover all the topics from the textbook Auer, L.v. (2023, ISBN: 978-3-658-42699-6).
This package implements a Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm to approximate exact conditional inference for logistic regression models. Exact conditional inference is based on the distribution of the sufficient statistics for the parameters of interest given the sufficient statistics for the remaining nuisance parameters. Using model formula notation, users specify a logistic model and model terms of interest for exact inference. See Zamar et al. (2007) <doi:10.18637/jss.v021.i03> for more details.
This package provides functions are provided for quantifying evolution and selection on complex traits. The package implements effective handling and analysis algorithms scaled for genome-wide data and calculates a composite statistic, denoted Ghat, which is used to test for selection on a trait. The package provides a number of simple examples for handling and analysing the genome data and visualising the output and results. Beissinger et al., (2018) <doi:10.1534/genetics.118.300857>.
This package provides functions to compute the Generalized Dynamic Principal Components introduced in Peña and Yohai (2016) <DOI:10.1080/01621459.2015.1072542>.

The tests are based on L2-type distances between characteristic functions, with inference carried out using permutation or bootstrap resampling schemes. The methods are described in Hallin et al. (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.07632>.

Fit Bayesian Gaussian graphical models. The methods are separated into two Bayesian approaches for inference: hypothesis testing and estimation. There are extensions for confirmatory hypothesis testing, comparing Gaussian graphical models, and node wise predictability. These methods were recently introduced in the Gaussian graphical model literature, including Williams (2019) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/x8dpr>, Williams and Mulder (2019) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/ypxd8>, Williams, Rast, Pericchi, and Mulder (2019) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/yt386>.
Developed for the following tasks. Simulating, computing maximum likelihood estimator, computing the Fisher information matrix, computing goodness-of-fit measures, and correcting bias of the ML estimator for a wide range of distributions fitted to units placed on progressive type-I interval censoring and progressive type-II censoring plans. The methods of Cox and Snell (1968) <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1968.tb00724.x> and bootstrap method for computing the bias-corrected maximum likelihood estimator.
Explore neural networks in a layer oriented way, the framework is intended to give the user total control of the internals of a net without much effort. Use classes like PerceptronLayer to create a layer of Percetron neurons, and specify how many you want. The package does all the tricky stuff internally leaving you focused in what you want. I wrote this package during a neural networks course to help me with the problem set.
The Gaussian location-scale regression model is a multi-predictor model with explanatory variables for the mean (= location) and the standard deviation (= scale) of a response variable. This package implements maximum likelihood and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) inference (using algorithms from Girolami and Calderhead (2011) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2010.00765.x> and Nesterov (2009) <doi:10.1007/s10107-007-0149-x>), a parametric bootstrap algorithm, and diagnostic plots for the model class.

This package provides methods to generate a design in the input space that sequentially fills the output space of a black-box function. The output space-filling designs are helpful in inverse design or feature-based modeling problems. See Wang, Shangkun, Adam P. Generale, Surya R. Kalidindi, and V. Roshan Joseph. (2024), Sequential designs for filling output spaces, Technometrics, 66, 65â 76. for details. This work is supported by U.S. National Foundation grant CMMI-1921646.
This package implements the Quantile Composite-based Path Modeling approach (Davino and Vinzi, 2016 <doi:10.1007/s11634-015-0231-9>; Dolce et al., 2021 <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00469-0>). The method complements the traditional PLS Path Modeling approach, analyzing the entire distribution of outcome variables and, therefore, overcoming the classical exploration of only average effects. It exploits quantile regression to investigate changes in the relationships among constructs and between constructs and observed variables.
This package implements the methodological developments found in Hermes, van Heerwaarden, and Behrouzi (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2308.04325>, and allows for the statistical modeling of asymmetric between-location effects, as well as within-location effects using spatial autoregressive graphical models. The package allows for the generation of spatial weight matrices to capture asymmetric effects for strip-type intercropping designs, although it can handle any type of spatial data commonly found in other sciences.
