The Fill-Mask Association Test ('FMAT') <doi:10.1037/pspa0000396> is an integrative, probability-based social computing method using Masked Language Models to measure conceptual associations (e.g., attitudes, biases, stereotypes, social norms, cultural values) as propositional semantic representations in natural language. Supported language models include BERT <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1810.04805> and its variants available at Hugging Face <https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=fill-mask>. Methodological references and installation guidance are provided at <https://psychbruce.github.io/FMAT/>.
This package provides functions for the flexible integration of heterogeneous scRNA-seq datasets across multiple tissue types, platforms, and experimental batches. Implements the method described in Ming (2022) <doi:10.1093/bib/bbac167>. The package incorporates modified C++ source code from the flashpca library (Abraham, 2014-2016 <https://github.com/gabraham/flashpca>) for efficient principal component analysis, and the Spectra library (Qiu, 2016-2025) for large-scale eigenvalue and singular value decomposition; see inst/COPYRIGHTS for details on third-party code.
This package provides a general, flexible framework for estimating parameters and empirical sandwich variance estimator from a set of unbiased estimating equations (i.e., M-estimation in the vein of Stefanski & Boos (2002) <doi:10.1198/000313002753631330>). All examples from Stefanski & Boos (2002) are published in the corresponding Journal of Statistical Software paper "The Calculus of M-Estimation in R with geex" by Saul & Hudgens (2020) <doi:10.18637/jss.v092.i02>.

The modified version of Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) is produced to measure the model performance. Package is based on Yuan Zhong, Wei Xu, and Xin Gao (2022) <https://www.fields.utoronto.ca/talk-media/1/53/65/slides.pdf>.
We provide an R tool for computation and nonparametric plug-in estimation of Highest Density Regions (HDRs) and general level sets in the directional setting. Concretely, circular and spherical HDRs can be reconstructed from a data sample following Saavedra-Nieves and Crujeiras (2021) <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00457-4>. This library also contains two real datasets in the circular and spherical settings. The first one concerns a problem from animal orientation studies and the second one is related to earthquakes occurrences.
Rapid satellite data streams in operational applications have clear benefits for monitoring land cover, especially when information can be delivered as fast as changing surface conditions. Over the past decade, remote sensing has become a key tool for monitoring and predicting environmental variables by using satellite data. This package presents the main applications in remote sensing for land surface monitoring and land cover mapping (soil, vegetation, water...).

This software ADAM is a Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) package created to group a set of genes from comparative samples (control versus experiment) belonging to different species according to their respective functions. The corresponding roles are extracted from the default collections like Gene ontology and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG). ADAM show their significance by calculating the p-values referring to gene diversity and activity. Each group of genes is called Group of functionally associated genes (GFAG).
GAGE is a published method for gene set (enrichment or GSEA) or pathway analysis. GAGE is generally applicable independent of microarray or RNA-Seq data attributes including sample sizes, experimental designs, assay platforms, and other types of heterogeneity. The gage package provides functions for basic GAGE analysis, result processing and presentation. In addition, it provides demo microarray data and commonly used gene set data based on KEGG pathways and GO terms. These functions and data are also useful for gene set analysis using other methods.
This package provides functions to compute and plot Coverage Probability Excursion (CoPE) sets for real valued functions on a 2-dimensional domain. CoPE sets are obtained from repeated noisy observations of the function on the entire domain. They are designed to bound the excursion set of the target function at a given level from above and below with a predefined probability. The target function can be a parameter in spatially-indexed linear regression. Support by NIH grant R01 CA157528 is gratefully acknowledged.

This package contains a set of functions that can be used to apply formats to data frames or vectors. The package aims to provide functionality similar to that of SAS® formats. Formats are assigned to the format attribute on data frame columns. Then when the fdata() function is called, a new data frame is created with the column data formatted as specified. The package also contains a value() function to create a user-defined format, similar to a SAS® user-defined format.
