This package provides a gridded classification of weather types by applying the Jenkinson and Collison classification. For a given region (it can be either local region or the whole map),it computes at each grid the 11 weather types during the period considered for the analysis. See Otero et al., (2017) <doi:10.1007/s00382-017-3705-y> for more information.
Estimate, fit and compare Structural Equation Models (SEM) and network models (Gaussian Graphical Models; GGM) using OpenMx
. Allows for two possible generalizations to include GGMs in SEM: GGMs can be used between latent variables (latent network modeling; LNM) or between residuals (residual network modeling; RNM). For details, see Epskamp, Rhemtulla and Borsboom (2017) <doi:10.1007/s11336-017-9557-x>.
Describes spatial patterns of categorical raster data for any defined regular and irregular areas. Patterns are described quantitatively using built-in signatures based on co-occurrence matrices but also allows for any user-defined functions. It enables spatial analysis such as search, change detection, and clustering to be performed on spatial patterns (Nowosad (2021) <doi:10.1007/s10980-020-01135-0>).
Matching longitudinal methodology models with complex sampling design. It fits fixed and random effects models and covariance structured models so far. It also provides tools to perform statistical tests considering these specifications as described in : Pacheco, P. H. (2021). "Modeling complex longitudinal data in R: development of a statistical package." <https://repositorio.ufjf.br/jspui/bitstream/ufjf/13437/1/pedrohenriquedemesquitapacheco.pdf>.
An implementation of the Monte Carlo techniques described in details by Dufour (2006) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2005.06.007> and Dufour and Khalaf (2007) <doi:10.1002/9780470996249.ch24>. The two main features available are the Monte Carlo method with tie-breaker, mc()
, for discrete statistics, and the Maximized Monte Carlo, mmc()
, for statistics with nuisance parameters.
Multiple and generalized nonparametric regression using smoothing spline ANOVA models and generalized additive models, as described in Helwig (2020) <doi:10.4135/9781526421036885885>. Includes support for Gaussian and non-Gaussian responses, smoothers for multiple types of predictors (including random intercepts), interactions between smoothers of mixed types, eight different methods for smoothing parameter selection, and flexible tools for diagnostics, inference, and prediction.
Expands quoted language by recursively replacing any symbol that points to quoted language with the language it points to. The recursive process continues until only symbols that point to non-language objects remain. The resulting quoted language can then be evaluated normally. This differs from the traditional quote'/'eval pattern because it resolves intermediate language objects that would interfere with evaluation.
Parsimonious Ultrametric Gaussian Mixture Models via grouped coordinate ascent (equivalent to EM) algorithm characterized by the inspection of hierarchical relationships among variables via parsimonious extended ultrametric covariance structures. The methodologies are described in Cavicchia, Vichi, Zaccaria (2024) <doi:10.1007/s11222-024-10405-9>, (2022) <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00488-x> and (2020) <doi:10.1007/s11634-020-00400-z>.
An implementation of the parameter cascade method in Ramsay, J. O., Hooker,G., Campbell, D., and Cao, J. (2007) for estimating ordinary differential equation models with missing or complete observations. It combines smoothing method and profile estimation to estimate any non-linear dynamic system. The package also offers variance estimates for parameters of interest based on either bootstrap or Delta method.
Analysis of seed germination data using the physiological time modelling approach. Includes functions to fit hydrotime and thermal-time models with the traditional approaches of Bradford (1990) <doi:10.1104/pp.94.2.840> and Garcia-Huidobro (1982) <doi:10.1093/jxb/33.2.288>. Allows to fit models to grouped datasets, i.e. datasets containing multiple species, seedlots or experiments.
Spatio-temporal change of support (STCOS) methods are designed for statistical inference on geographic and time domains which differ from those on which the data were observed. In particular, a parsimonious class of STCOS models supporting Gaussian outcomes was introduced by Bradley, Wikle, and Holan <doi:10.1002/sta4.94>. The stcos package contains tools which facilitate use of STCOS models.
This package provides a collection of tools for trade practitioners, including the ability to calibrate different consumer demand systems and simulate the effects of tariffs and quotas under different competitive regimes. These tools are derived from Anderson et al. (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0047-2727(00)00085-2> and Froeb et al. (2003) <doi:10.1016/S0304-4076(02)00166-5>.
The r-mhsmm
package implements estimation and prediction methods for hidden Markov and semi-Markov models for multiple observation sequences. Such techniques are of interest when observed data is thought to be dependent on some unobserved (or hidden) state. Also, this package is suitable for equidistant time series data, with multivariate and/or missing data. Allows user defined emission distributions.
This package provides a comprehensive collection of practical and easy-to-use tools for regression analysis of recurrent events, with or without the presence of a (possibly) informative terminal event described in Chiou et al. (2023) <doi:10.18637/jss.v105.i05>. The modeling framework is based on a joint frailty scale-change model, that includes models described in Wang et al. (2001) <doi:10.1198/016214501753209031>, Huang and Wang (2004) <doi:10.1198/016214504000001033>, Xu et al. (2017) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2016.1173557>, and Xu et al. (2019) <doi:10.5705/SS.202018.0224> as special cases. The implemented estimating procedure does not require any parametric assumption on the frailty distribution. The package also allows the users to specify different model forms for both the recurrent event process and the terminal event.

and generalised additive models (Upton et al 2023) <arXiv:2301.09556>
. This package facilitates data loading, model fitting and result summarisation. Notably, it accommodates the inherent measurement errors found in relative sea-level data across multiple dimensions, allowing for their inclusion in the statistical models.
Estimate the AUC using a variety of methods as follows: (1) frequentist nonparametric methods based on the Mann-Whitney statistic or kernel methods. (2) frequentist parametric methods using the likelihood ratio test based on higher-order asymptotic results, the signed log-likelihood ratio test, the Wald test, or the approximate t solution to the Behrens-Fisher problem. (3) Bayesian parametric MCMC methods.
Bumblebee colonies grow during worker production, then decline after switching to production of reproductive individuals (drones and gynes). This package provides tools for modeling and visualizing this pattern by identifying a switchpoint with a growth rate before and a decline rate after the switchpoint. The mathematical models fit by bumbl are described in Crone and Williams (2016) <doi:10.1111/ele.12581>.

Estimates Two-way Fixed Effects difference-in-differences/event-study models using the approach proposed by Gardner (2021) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2207.05943>
. To avoid the problems caused by OLS estimation of the Two-way Fixed Effects model, this function first estimates the fixed effects and covariates using untreated observations and then in a second stage, estimates the treatment effects.
