Collection of utilities that improve using Databricks from R. Primarily functions that wrap specific Databricks APIs (<https://docs.databricks.com/api>), RStudio connection pane support, quality of life functions to make Databricks simpler to use.

Unified and user-friendly framework for using new distributional representations of biosensors data in different statistical modeling tasks: regression models, hypothesis testing, cluster analysis, visualization, and descriptive analysis. Distributional representations are a functional extension of compositional time-range metrics and we have used them successfully so far in modeling glucose profiles and accelerometer data. However, these functional representations can be used to represent any biosensor data such as ECG or medical imaging such as fMRI. Matabuena M, Petersen A, Vidal JC, Gude F.

This package contains specialised analyses and visualisation tools for behavior change science. These facilitate conducting determinant studies (for example, using confidence interval-based estimation of relevance, CIBER, or CIBERlite plots, see Crutzen, Noijen & Peters (2017) <doi:10/ghtfz9>), systematically developing, reporting, and analysing interventions (for example, using Acyclic Behavior Change Diagrams), and reporting about intervention effectiveness (for example, using the Numbers Needed for Change, see Gruijters & Peters (2017) <doi:10/jzkt>), and computing the required sample size (using the Meaningful Change Definition, see Gruijters & Peters (2020) <doi:10/ghpnx8>). This package is especially useful for researchers in the field of behavior change or health psychology and to behavior change professionals such as intervention developers and prevention workers.

Fit of the BMT distribution to non-censored data by maximum likelihood, moment matching, quantile matching, maximum goodness-of-fit, also known as minimum distance, maximum product of spacing, also called maximum spacing, and minimum quantile distance, which can also be called maximum quantile goodness-of-fit.

This package provides functions to compute the joint probability mass function (pmf), cumulative distribution function (cdf), and survival function (sf) of the Basu-Dhar bivariate geometric distribution. Additional functionalities include the calculation of the correlation coefficient, covariance, and cross-factorial moments, as well as the generation of random variates. The package also implements parameter estimation based on the method of moments.

This package implements a bootstrap aggregated (bagged) version of the k-nearest neighbors survival probability prediction method (Lowsky et al. 2013). In addition to the bootstrapping of training samples, the features can be subsampled in each baselearner to break the correlation between them. The Rcpp package is used to speed up the computation.

Bayesian MCPMod (Fleischer et al. (2022) <doi:10.1002/pst.2193>) is an innovative method that improves the traditional MCPMod by systematically incorporating historical data, such as previous placebo group data. This R package offers functions for simulating, analyzing, and evaluating Bayesian MCPMod trials with normally distributed endpoints. It enables the assessment of trial designs incorporating historical data across various true dose-response relationships and sample sizes. Robust mixture prior distributions, such as those derived with the Meta-Analytic-Predictive approach (Schmidli et al. (2014) <doi:10.1111/biom.12242>), can be specified for each dose group. Resulting mixture posterior distributions are used in the Bayesian Multiple Comparison Procedure and modeling steps. The modeling step also includes a weighted model averaging approach (Pinheiro et al. (2014) <doi:10.1002/sim.6052>). Estimated dose-response relationships can be bootstrapped and visualized.

The Bayesian Federated Inference ('BFI') method combines inference results obtained from local data sets in the separate centers. In this version of the package, the BFI methodology is programmed for linear, logistic and survival regression models. For GLMs, see Jonker, Pazira and Coolen (2024) <doi:10.1002/sim.10072>; for survival models, see Pazira, Massa, Weijers, Coolen and Jonker (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.17464>; and for heterogeneous populations, see Jonker, Pazira and Coolen (2025) <doi:10.1017/rsm.2025.6>.

Arrays of structured data types can require large volumes of disk space to store. Blosc is a library that provides a fast and efficient way to compress such data. It is often applied in storage of n-dimensional arrays, such as in the case of the geo-spatial zarr file format. This package can be used to compress and decompress data using Blosc'.
