This package implements the Agnostic Fay-Herriot model, an extension of the traditional small area model. In place of normal sampling errors, the sampling error distribution is estimated with a Gaussian process to accommodate a broader class of distributions. This flexibility is most useful in the presence of bounded, multi-modal, or heavily skewed sampling errors.

This package provides a collection of tools that support data splitting, predictive modeling, and model evaluation. A typical function is to split a dataset into a training dataset and a test dataset. Then compare the data distribution of the two datasets. Another feature is to support the development of predictive models and to compare the performance of several predictive models, helping to select the best model.

Choice models are a widely used technique across numerous scientific disciplines. The Apollo package is a very flexible tool for the estimation and application of choice models in R. Users are able to write their own model functions or use a mix of already available ones. Random heterogeneity, both continuous and discrete and at the level of individuals and choices, can be incorporated for all models. There is support for both standalone models and hybrid model structures. Both classical and Bayesian estimation is available, and multiple discrete continuous models are covered in addition to discrete choice. Multi-threading processing is supported for estimation and a large number of pre and post-estimation routines, including for computing posterior (individual-level) distributions are available. For examples, a manual, and a support forum, visit <https://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com>. For more information on choice models see Train, K. (2009) <isbn:978-0-521-74738-7> and Hess, S. & Daly, A.J. (2014) <isbn:978-1-781-00314-5> for an overview of the field.

The goal of automatedRecLin is to perform record linkage (also known as entity resolution) in unsupervised or supervised settings. It compares pairs of records from two datasets using selected comparison functions to estimate the probability or density ratio between matched and non-matched records. Based on these estimates, it predicts a set of matches that maximizes entropy. For details see: Lee et al. (2022) <https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/12-001-x/2022001/article/00007-eng.htm>, Vo et al. (2023) <https://ideas.repec.org/a/eee/csdana/v179y2023ics0167947322002365.html>, Sugiyama et al. (2008) <doi:10.1007/s10463-008-0197-x>.

This package provides tools to perform model selection alongside estimation under Linear, Logistic, Negative binomial, Quantile, and Skew-Normal regression. Under the spike-and-slab method, a probability for each possible model is estimated with the posterior mean, credibility interval, and standard deviation of coefficients and parameters under the most probable model.

This package provides a framework for automated machine learning. Concretely, the focus is on the optimisation of bagging workflows. A bagging workflows is composed by three phases: (i) generation: which and how many predictive models to learn; (ii) pruning: after learning a set of models, the worst ones are cut off from the ensemble; and (iii) integration: how the models are combined for predicting a new observation. autoBagging optimises these processes by combining metalearning and a learning to rank approach to learn from metadata. It automatically ranks 63 bagging workflows by exploiting past performance and dataset characterization. A complete description of the method can be found in: Pinto, F., Cerqueira, V., Soares, C., Mendes-Moreira, J. (2017): "autoBagging: Learning to Rank Bagging Workflows with Metalearning" arXiv preprint arXiv:1706.09367.

Fit Generalized Additive Models (GAM) using mgcv with parsnip'/'tidymodels via additive <doi:10.5281/zenodo.4784245>. tidymodels is a collection of packages for machine learning; see Kuhn and Wickham (2020) <https://www.tidymodels.org>).

An efficient Rcpp implementation of the Adaptive Rejection Metropolis Sampling (ARMS) algorithm proposed by Gilks, W. R., Best, N. G. and Tan, K. K. C. (1995) <doi:10.2307/2986138>. This allows for sampling from a univariate target probability distribution specified by its (potentially unnormalised) log density.

This package provides a wrapper for the Microsoft Azure Maps REST APIs <https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/maps/route?view=rest-maps-2025-01-01>, enabling users to access mapping and geospatial services directly from R. This package simplifies authenticating, building, and sending requests for services like route directions. It handles conversions between R objects (such as sf objects) and the GeoJSON+JSON format required by the API, making it easier to integrate Azure Maps into R-based data analysis workflows.

Estimate the linear and nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL & NARDL) models and the corresponding error correction models, and test for longrun and short-run asymmetric. The general-to-specific approach is also available in estimating the ARDL and NARDL models. The Pesaran, Shin & Smith (2001) (<doi:10.1002/jae.616>) bounds test for level relationships is also provided. The ardl.nardl package also performs short-run and longrun symmetric restrictions available at Shin et al. (2014) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4899-8008-3_9> and their corresponding tests.

This package provides a set of fast and convenient functions to help conducting accessibility analyses. Given a pre-computed travel cost matrix and a land use dataset (containing the location of jobs, healthcare and population, for example), the package allows one to calculate accessibility levels and accessibility poverty and inequality. The package covers the majority of the most commonly used accessibility measures (such as cumulative opportunities, gravity-based and floating catchment areas methods), as well as the most frequently used inequality and poverty metrics (such as the Palma ratio, the concentration and Theil indices and the FGT family of measures).

Functions are compatible with base R and ggplot2 for visualization.

This package contains data and functions that can be used to make actuarial life tables. Each function adds a column to the inputted dataset for each intermediate calculation between mortality rate and life expectancy. Users can run any of our functions to complete the life table until that step, or run lifetable() to output a full life table that can be customized to remove optional columns. Methods for creating lifetables are as described in Zedstatistics (2021) <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dfe59glNXAQ>.
