Create legends for maps and other graphics. Thematic maps need to be accompanied by legible legends to be fully comprehensible. This package offers a wide range of legends useful for cartography, some of which may also be useful for other types of graphics.

Penalized regression methods, such as lasso and elastic net, are used in many biomedical applications when simultaneous regression coefficient estimation and variable selection is desired. However, missing data complicates the implementation of these methods, particularly when missingness is handled using multiple imputation. Applying a variable selection algorithm on each imputed dataset will likely lead to different sets of selected predictors, making it difficult to ascertain a final active set without resorting to ad hoc combination rules. miselect presents Stacked Adaptive Elastic Net (saenet) and Grouped Adaptive LASSO (galasso) for continuous and binary outcomes, developed by Du et al (2022) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2022.2035739>. They, by construction, force selection of the same variables across multiply imputed data. miselect also provides cross validated variants of these methods.

This package provides a framework for multipurpose optimal resource allocation in survey sampling, extending the classical optimal allocation principles introduced by Tschuprow (1923) and Neyman (1934) to multidomain and multivariate allocation problems. The primary method mosalloc() allows for the consideration of precision and cost constraints at the subpopulation level while minimizing either a vector of sampling errors or survey costs across a broad range of optimal sample allocation problems. The approach supports both single- and multistage designs. For single-stage stratified random sampling, the mosallocSTRS() function offers a user- friendly interface. Sensitivity analysis is supported through the problem's dual variables, which are naturally obtained via the internal use of the Embedded Conic Solver from the ECOSolveR package. See Willems (2025, <doi:10.25353/ubtr-9200-484c-5c89>) for a detailed description of the theory behind MOSAlloc'.

Simulation results detailed in Esarey and Menger (2019) <doi:10.1017/psrm.2017.42> demonstrate that cluster adjusted t statistics (CATs) are an effective method for correcting standard errors in scenarios with a small number of clusters. The mmiCATs package offers a suite of tools for working with CATs. The mmiCATs() function initiates a shiny web application, facilitating the analysis of data utilizing CATs, as implemented in the cluster.im.glm() function from the clusterSEs package. Additionally, the pwr_func_lmer() function is designed to simplify the process of conducting simulations to compare mixed effects models with CATs models. For educational purposes, the CloseCATs() function launches a shiny application card game, aimed at enhancing users understanding of the conditions under which CATs should be preferred over random intercept models.

This package implements an MCMC sampler for the posterior distribution of arbitrary time-homogeneous multivariate stochastic differential equation (SDE) models with possibly latent components. The package provides a simple entry point to integrate user-defined models directly with the sampler's C++ code, and parallelizes large portions of the calculations when compiled with OpenMP'.

Family Planning programs and initiatives typically use nationally representative surveys to estimate key indicators of a countryâ s family planning progress. However, in recent years, routinely collected family planning services data (Service Statistics) have been used as a supplementary data source to bridge gaps in the surveys. The use of service statistics comes with the caveat that adjustments need to be made for missing private sector contributions to the contraceptive method supply chain. Evaluating the supply source of modern contraceptives often relies on Demographic Health Surveys (DHS), where many countries do not have recent data beyond 2015/16. Fortunately, in the absence of recent surveys we can rely on statistical model-based estimates and projections to fill the knowledge gap. We present a Bayesian, hierarchical, penalized-spline model with multivariate-normal spline coefficients, to account for across method correlations, to produce country-specific,annual estimates for the proportion of modern contraceptive methods coming from the public and private sectors. This package provides a quick and convenient way for users to access the DHS modern contraceptive supply share data at national and subnational administration levels, estimate, evaluate and plot annual estimates with uncertainty for a sample of low- and middle-income countries. Methods for the estimation of method supply shares at the national level are described in Comiskey, Alkema, Cahill (2022) <arXiv:2212.03844>.

This package provides functionality for estimating cross-sectional network structures representing partial correlations while accounting for missing data. Networks are estimated via neighborhood selection or regularization, with model selection guided by information criteria. Missing data can be handled primarily via multiple imputation or a maximum likelihood-based approach, as demonstrated by Nehler and Schultze (2025a) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/qpj35> and Nehler and Schultze (2025b) <doi:10.1080/00273171.2025.2503833>. Deletion-based approaches are also available but play a secondary role.

This package provides an extension of the shadow-test approach to computerized adaptive testing (CAT) implemented in the TestDesign package for the assessment framework involving multiple tests administered periodically throughout the year. This framework is referred to as the Multiple Administrations Adaptive Testing (MAAT) and supports multiple item pools vertically scaled and multiple phases (stages) of CAT within each test. Between phases and tests, transitioning from one item pool (and associated constraints) to another is allowed as deemed necessary to enhance the quality of measurement.
