Estimation and interpretation of Bayesian distributed lag interaction models (BDLIMs). A BDLIM regresses a scalar outcome on repeated measures of exposure and allows for modification by a categorical variable under four specific patterns of modification. The main function is bdlim(). There are also summary and plotting files. Details on methodology are described in Wilson et al. (2017) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxx002>.
Tests for a linear relationship in the log ratio between an observed and simulated series and an independent variable. Typically this the error in modelled streamflow at an annual time scale, and a rainfall input. The approach allows for multiple sites as random factors and for multiple replicates of the simulated values. The approach is outlined in Gibbs et al. (2026) in review.
This package provides a platform for interactive data analysis designed to simplify development, deployment, interaction, and exploration (TEDDIE). The package enables users to create customized analyses and deploy them to end users, who can perform interactive analyses and export results to RTF or HTML files. It allows developers to focus on R code for analysis rather than managing HTML or Shiny application code.
R functions for "The Basics of Item Response Theory Using R" by Frank B. Baker and Seock-Ho Kim (Springer, 2017, ISBN-13: 978-3-319-54204-1) including iccplot(), icccal(), icc(), iccfit(), groupinv(), tcc(), ability(), tif(), and rasch(). For example, iccplot() plots an item characteristic curve under the two-parameter logistic model.
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'.
Different tools for describing and analysing paired comparison data are presented. Main methods are estimation of products scores according Bradley Terry Luce model. A segmentation of the individual could be conducted on the basis of a mixture distribution approach. The number of classes can be tested by the use of Monte Carlo simulations. This package deals also with multi-criteria paired comparison data.
Ecological Metadata Language or EML is a long-established format for describing ecological datasets to facilitate sharing and re-use. Because EML is effectively a modified xml schema, however, it is challenging to write and manipulate for non-expert users. delma supports users to write metadata statements in R Markdown or Quarto markdown format, and parse them to EML and (optionally) back again.
Analysis of items and persons in data. To identify and remove person misfit in polytomous item-response data using either mokken or a graded response model (GRM, via mirt'). Provides automatic thresholds, visual diagnostics (2D/3D), and export utilities. Methods build on Mokken scaling as in Mokken (1971, ISBN:9789027968821) and on the graded response model of Samejima (1969) <doi:10.1007/BF03372160>.
Allows calculation on, and sampling from Gibbs Random Fields, and more precisely general homogeneous Potts model. The primary tool is the exact computation of the intractable normalising constant for small rectangular lattices. Beside the latter function, it contains method that give exact sample from the likelihood for small enough rectangular lattices or approximate sample from the likelihood using MCMC samplers for large lattices.
This package creates and plots 2D and 3D hive plots. Hive plots are a unique method of displaying networks of many types in which node properties are mapped to axes using meaningful properties rather than being arbitrarily positioned. The hive plot concept was invented by Martin Krzywinski at the Genome Science Center (www.hiveplot.net/). Keywords: networks, food webs, linnet, systems biology, bioinformatics.
This package provides tools for drawing maps of Japan with prefecture and municipal boundaries. The plotting workflow mirrors the usmap package and includes a transform that moves Okinawa and Ogasawara into visible inset locations. Boundary helpers build local GeoPackage files from Japan's official MLIT N03 administrative area data <https://nlftp.mlit.go.jp/ksj/gml/datalist/KsjTmplt-N03-2024.html>.
Simulate expected equilibrium length composition, yield-per-recruit, and the spawning potential ratio (SPR) using the length-based SPR (LBSPR) model. Fit the LBSPR model to length data to estimate selectivity, relative apical fishing mortality, and the spawning potential ratio for data-limited fisheries. See Hordyk et al (2016) <doi:10.1139/cjfas-2015-0422> for more information about the LBSPR assessment method.
This package provides functions for performing multiple-class cluster correspondence analysis(MCCCA). The main functions are create.MCCCAdata() to create a list to be applied to MCCCA, MCCCA() to apply MCCCA, and plot.mccca() for visualizing MCCCA result. Methods used in the package are described in Mariko Takagishi and Michel van de Velden (2022)<doi:10.1080/10618600.2022.2035737>.
Computes robust and bias-corrected sandwich variance estimators for multi-state Cox models with clustered time-to-event data. Also provides Wald tests for heterogeneity, generalized least-squares linear trends, and order-restricted trends among transition-specific coefficients. The methodology extends the marginal Cox model bias-correction framework of Wang et al. (2023) <doi:10.1002/bimj.202200113> to the multi-state setting.
K-nearest neighbor search for projected and non-projected sf spatial layers. Nearest neighbor search uses (1) C code from GeographicLib for lon-lat point layers, (2) function knn() from package nabor for projected point layers, or (3) function st_distance() from package sf for line or polygon layers. The package also includes several other utility functions for spatial analysis.
This package provides helpers for discovering, planning, and downloading open-access datasets from the Neuroscience Multi-Omic Archive ('NeMO'; <https://nemoarchive.org/>). The package builds reproducible file manifests that record search parameters, file metadata, download URLs, checksums, and local file paths. It supports exploratory NeMO metadata queries and provides first-pass bridges from downloaded files into SingleCellExperiment and Seurat workflows.
The aim of neo2R is to provide simple and low level connectors for querying neo4j graph databases (<https://neo4j.com/>). The objects returned by the query functions are either lists or data.frames with very little post-processing. It allows fast processing of queries returning many records. And it let the users handle post-processing according to the data model and their needs.
Next-Generation Clustered Heat Maps (NG-CHMs) allow for dynamic exploration of heat map data in a web browser. NGCHM allows users to create both stand-alone HTML files containing a Next-Generation Clustered Heat Map, and .ngchm files to view in the NG-CHM viewer. See Ryan MC, Stucky M, et al (2020) <doi:10.12688/f1000research.20590.2> for more details.
