This package provides a customisable R shiny app for immersively visualising, mapping and annotating panospheric (360 degree) imagery. The flexible interface allows annotation of any geocoded images using up to 4 user specified dropdown menus. The app uses leaflet to render maps that display the geo-locations of images and panellum <https://pannellum.org/>, a lightweight panorama viewer for the web, to render images in virtual 360 degree viewing mode. Key functions include the ability to draw on & export parts of 360 images for downstream applications. Users can also draw polygons and points on map imagery related to the panoramic images and export them for further analysis. Downstream applications include using annotations to train Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) models and geospatial modelling and analysis of camera based survey data.
This package implements a set of methodological tools that enable researchers to apply matching methods to time-series cross-sectional data. Imai, Kim, and Wang (2023) <http://web.mit.edu/insong/www/pdf/tscs.pdf> proposes a nonparametric generalization of the difference-in-differences estimator, which does not rely on the linearity assumption as often done in practice. Researchers first select a method of matching each treated observation for a given unit in a particular time period with control observations from other units in the same time period that have a similar treatment and covariate history. These methods include standard matching methods based on propensity score and Mahalanobis distance, as well as weighting methods. Once matching and refinement is done, treatment effects can be estimated with standard errors. The package also offers diagnostics for researchers to assess the quality of their results.
Understanding the dynamics of potentially heterogeneous variables is important in statistical applications. This package provides tools for estimating the degree of heterogeneity across cross-sectional units in the panel data analysis. The methods are developed by Okui and Yanagi (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2019.04.036> and Okui and Yanagi (2020) <doi:10.1093/ectj/utz019>.
CNV detection tool for targeted NGS panel data. Extension of the cn.mops package.
Leading/lagging a panel, creating dummy variables, taking panel differences, looking for panel autocorrelations, and more. Implemented via a data.table back end.
This package provides function for performing Bayesian survival regression using Horseshoe prior in the accelerated failure time model with log normal assumption in order to achieve high dimensional pan-cancer variable selection as developed in Maity et. al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/biom.13132>.
Create an automated regression table that is well-suited for models that are estimated with multiple dependent variables. panelsummary extends modelsummary (Arel-Bundock, V. (2022) <doi:10.18637/jss.v103.i01>) by allowing regression tables to be split into multiple sections with a simple function call. Utilize familiar arguments such as fmt, estimate, statistic, vcov, conf_level, stars, coef_map, coef_omit, coef_rename, gof_map, and gof_omit from modelsummary to clean the table, and additionally, add a row for the mean of the dependent variable without external manipulation.
The document converter pandoc <https://pandoc.org/> is widely used in the R community. One feature of pandoc is that it can produce and consume JSON-formatted abstract syntax trees (AST). This allows to transform a given source document into JSON-formatted AST, alter it by so called filters and pass the altered JSON-formatted AST back to pandoc'. This package provides functions which allow to write such filters in native R code. Although this package is inspired by the Python package pandocfilters <https://github.com/jgm/pandocfilters/>, it provides additional convenience functions which make it simple to use the pandocfilters package as a report generator. Since pandocfilters inherits most of it's functionality from pandoc it can create documents in many formats (for more information see <https://pandoc.org/>) but is also bound to the same limitations as pandoc'.
Aggregate Business Tendency Survey Data (and other qualitative surveys) to time series at various aggregation levels. Run aggregation of survey data in a speedy, re-traceable and a easily deployable way. Aggregation is substantially accelerated by use of data.table. This package intends to provide an interface that is less general and abstract than data.table but rather geared towards survey researchers.
