This package provides functions that wrap HTML Bootstrap components code to enable the design and layout of informative landing home pages for Shiny applications. This can lead to a better user experience for the users and writing less HTML for the developer.

This package provides a design-based approach to statistical inference, with a focus on spatial data. Spatially balanced samples are selected using the Generalized Random Tessellation Stratified (GRTS) algorithm. The GRTS algorithm can be applied to finite resources (point geometries) and infinite resources (linear / linestring and areal / polygon geometries) and flexibly accommodates a diverse set of sampling design features, including stratification, unequal inclusion probabilities, proportional (to size) inclusion probabilities, legacy (historical) sites, a minimum distance between sites, and two options for replacement sites (reverse hierarchical order and nearest neighbor). Data are analyzed using a wide range of analysis functions that perform categorical variable analysis, continuous variable analysis, attributable risk analysis, risk difference analysis, relative risk analysis, change analysis, and trend analysis. spsurvey can also be used to summarize objects, visualize objects, select samples that are not spatially balanced, select panel samples, measure the amount of spatial balance in a sample, adjust design weights, and more. For additional details, see Dumelle et al. (2023) <doi:10.18637/jss.v105.i03>.

The overall performance of soil ecosystem services and productivity greatly relies on soil health, making it a crucial indicator. The evaluation of soil physical, chemical, and biological parameters is necessary to determine the overall soil quality index. In our package, three commonly used methods, including linear scoring, regression-based, and principal component-based soil quality indexing, are employed to calculate the soil quality index. This package has been developed using concept of Bastida et al. (2008) and Doran and Parkin (1994) <doi:10.1016/j.geoderma.2008.08.007> <doi:10.2136/sssaspecpub35.c1>.

An algorithm that trains a meta-learning procedure that combines screening and wrapper methods to find a set of extremely low-dimensional attribute combinations. This package works on top of the caret package and proceeds in a forward-step manner. More specifically, it builds and tests learners starting from very few attributes until it includes a maximal number of attributes by increasing the number of attributes at each step. Hence, for each fixed number of attributes, the algorithm tests various (randomly selected) learners and picks those with the best performance in terms of training error. Throughout, the algorithm uses the information coming from the best learners at the previous step to build and test learners in the following step. In the end, it outputs a set of strong low-dimensional learners.

It visualizes data along an Archimedean spiral <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedean_spiral>, makes so-called spiral graph or spiral chart. It has two major advantages for visualization: 1. It is able to visualize data with very long axis with high resolution. 2. It is efficient for time series data to reveal periodic patterns.

Spatial components offer tools for dimension reduction and spatially variable gene detection for high dimensional spatial transcriptomics data. Construction of a projection onto low-dimensional feature space of spatially dependent metagenes offers pre-processing to clustering, testing for spatial variability and denoising of spatial expression patterns. For more details, see Koehler et al. (2026) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btag052>.

This package provides tools for simulation of plant breeding programs as described, for example, by Melchinger and Frisch (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00122-023-04446-3>, prediction of segregation variance (Osthushenrich, Frisch and Herzog (2017) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0188839>), genomic prediction (Hofheinz and Frisch (2014) <doi:10.1534/g3.113.010025>), linkage disequilibrium based haplotype construction, and planning of marker assisted back crossing programs. It provides an integrated framework for simulation and analysis of plant breeding programs.

Efficiently estimate shape parameters of periodic time series imagery with which a statistical seasonal trend analysis (STA) is subsequently performed. STA output can be exported in conventional raster formats. Methods to visualize STA output are also implemented as well as the calculation of additional basic statistics. STA is based on (R. Eastman, F. Sangermano, B. Ghimire, H. Zhu, H. Chen, N. Neeti, Y. Cai, E. Machado and S. Crema, 2009) <doi:10.1080/01431160902755338>.

This package provides an implementation of the Sparse ICA method in Wang et al. (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2024.2370593> for estimating sparse independent source components of cortical surface functional MRI data, by addressing a non-smooth, non-convex optimization problem through the relax-and-split framework. This method effectively balances statistical independence and sparsity while maintaining computational efficiency.

This package provides tools for analyzing and understanding the file contents of large shiny application directories. The package extracts key information about render functions, reactive functions, and their inputs from app files, organizing them into structured data frames for easy reference. This streamlines the onboarding process for new contributors and helps identify areas for optimization in complex shiny codebases with multiple files and sourcing chains.

We provide functionality to implement penalized PCA with an option to smooth the objective function using Nesterov smoothing. Two functions are available to compute a user-specified number of eigenvectors. The function unsmoothed_penalized_EV() computes a penalized PCA without smoothing and has three parameters (the input matrix, the Lasso penalty, and the number of desired eigenvectors). The function smoothed_penalized_EV() computes a smoothed penalized PCA using the same parameters and additionally requires the specification of a smoothing parameter. Both functions return a matrix having the desired eigenvectors as columns.

Monte Carlo simulations of a game-theoretic model for the legal exemption system of the European cartel law are implemented in order to estimate the (mean) deterrent effect of this system. The input and output parameters of the simulated cartel opportunities can be visualized by three-dimensional projections. A description of the model is given in Moritz et al. (2018) <doi:10.1515/bejeap-2017-0235>.

Semiparametric Estimation of Stochastic Frontier Models following a two step procedure: in the first step semiparametric or nonparametric regression techniques are used to relax parametric restrictions of the functional form representing technology and in the second step variance parameters are obtained by pseudolikelihood estimators or by method of moments.

This package provides tools for small area estimation using a projection estimator with a linear multilevel working model. The main function fits a multilevel model to a smaller survey containing the response variable and auxiliary predictors. The fitted model is used to predict outcomes in a larger projection survey, and domain-level estimates are computed by combining synthetic predictions with a design-based residual correction.
