Matching with string distance has never been easier! messy.cats contains various functions that employ string distance tools in order to make data management easier for users working with categorical data. Categorical data, especially user inputted categorical data that often tends to be plagued by typos, can be difficult to work with. messy.cats aims to provide functions that make cleaning categorical data simple and easy.

This package provides a simple in-memory, LRU cache that can be wrapped around any function to memoize it. The cache is keyed on a hash of the input data (using digest') or on pointer equivalence. Also includes a generic hashmap object that can key on any object type.

This package provides functions for cost-optimal control charts with a focus on health care applications. Compared to assumptions in traditional control chart theory, here, we allow random shift sizes, random repair and random sampling times. The package focuses on X-bar charts with a sample size of 1 (representing the monitoring of a single patient at a time). The methods are described in Zempleni et al. (2004) <doi:10.1002/asmb.521>, Dobi and Zempleni (2019) <doi:10.1002/qre.2518> and Dobi and Zempleni (2019) <http://ac.inf.elte.hu/Vol_049_2019/129_49.pdf>.

The temporal relationship between motor neurons can offer explanations for neural strategies. We combined functions to reduce neuron action potential discharge data and analyze it for short-term, time-domain synchronization. Even more so, motoRneuron combines most available methods for the determining cross correlation histogram peaks and most available indices for calculating synchronization into simple functions. See Nordstrom, Fuglevand, and Enoka (1992) <doi:10.1113/jphysiol.1992.sp019244> for a more thorough introduction.

This function allows to generate two biological conditions synthetic microarray dataset which has similar behavior to those currently observed with common platforms. User provides a subset of parameters. Available default parameters settings can be modified.

This package provides methods for model-based clustering of multinomial counts under the presence of covariates using mixtures of multinomial logit models, as implemented in Papastamoulis (2023) <DOI:10.1007/s11634-023-00547-5>. These models are estimated under a frequentist as well as a Bayesian setup using the Expectation-Maximization algorithm and Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling (MCMC), respectively. The (unknown) number of clusters is selected according to the Integrated Completed Likelihood criterion (for the frequentist model), and estimating the number of non-empty components using overfitting mixture models after imposing suitable sparse prior assumptions on the mixing proportions (in the Bayesian case), see Rousseau and Mengersen (2011) <DOI:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2011.00781.x>. In the latter case, various MCMC chains run in parallel and are allowed to switch states. The final MCMC output is suitably post-processed in order to undo label switching using the Equivalence Classes Representatives (ECR) algorithm, as described in Papastamoulis (2016) <DOI:10.18637/jss.v069.c01>.

Various affine invariant multivariate normality tests are provided. It is designed to accompany the survey article Ebner, B. and Henze, N. (2020) <arXiv:2004.07332> titled "Tests for multivariate normality -- a critical review with emphasis on weighted L^2-statistics". We implement new and time honoured L^2-type tests of multivariate normality, such as the Baringhaus-Henze-Epps-Pulley (BHEP) test, the Henze-Zirkler test, the test of Henze-Jiménes-Gamero, the test of Henze-Jiménes-Gamero-Meintanis, the test of Henze-Visage, the Dörr-Ebner-Henze test based on harmonic oscillator and the Dörr-Ebner-Henze test based on a double estimation in a PDE. Secondly, we include the measures of multivariate skewness and kurtosis by Mardia, Koziol, Malkovich and Afifi and Móri, Rohatgi and Székely, as well as the associated tests. Thirdly, we include the tests of multivariate normality by Cox and Small, the energy test of Székely and Rizzo, the tests based on spherical harmonics by Manzotti and Quiroz and the test of Pudelko. All the functions and tests need the data to be a n x d matrix where n is the samplesize (number of rows) and d is the dimension (number of columns).

Bindings for hierarchical regression models for use with the parsnip package. Models include longitudinal generalized linear models (Liang and Zeger, 1986) <doi:10.1093/biomet/73.1.13>, and mixed-effect models (Pinheiro and Bates) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4419-0318-1_1>.

Multi-omic (or any multi-view) spectral clustering methods often assume the same number of clusters across all datasets. We supply methods for multi-omic spectral clustering when the number of distinct clusters differs among the omics profiles (views).

This package provides a simple and trustworthy methodology for the analysis of misreported continuous time series using either a frequentist (bootstrap-based EM algorithm) or a Bayesian (MCMC via JAGS) approach. The frequentist method is described in Morina et al. (2021) <doi:10.1038/s41598-021-02620-5>. The Bayesian extension fits the same ARMA model with misreporting structure using a full posterior distribution, providing credible intervals and DIC for model comparison, as described in Morina et al. (2024) <doi:10.1101/2024.02.26.24303373>.

To determine the number of quantitative assays needed for a sample of data using pooled testing methods, which include mini-pooling (MP), MP with algorithm (MPA), and marker-assisted MPA (mMPA). To estimate the number of assays needed, the package also provides a tool to conduct Monte Carlo (MC) to simulate different orders in which the sample would be collected to form pools. Using MC avoids the dependence of the estimated number of assays on any specific ordering of the samples to form pools.

This package provides tools for motif analysis in multi-level networks. Multi-level networks combine multiple networks in one, e.g. social-ecological networks. Motifs are small configurations of nodes and edges (subgraphs) occurring in networks. motifr can visualize multi-level networks, count multi-level network motifs and compare motif occurrences to baseline models. It also identifies contributions of existing or potential edges to motifs to find critical or missing edges. The package is in many parts an R wrapper for the excellent SESMotifAnalyser Python package written by Tim Seppelt.

This package provides a client for interacting with magma', the data warehouse of the UCSF Data Library'. magmaR includes functions for querying and downloading data from magma', in order to enable working with such data in R, as well as for uploading local data to magma'.

Companion package of Carrion-i-Silvestre & Sansó (2026): "Testing for Constant Unconditional Variance in Heavy-Tailed Time Series". It implements the Modified Iterative Cumulative Sum of Squares Algorithm, which is an extension of the Iterative Cumulative Sum of Squares (ICSS) Algorithm of Inclan and Tiao (1994), and it checks for changes in the unconditional variance of a time series controlling for the tail index of the underlying distribution. The fourth order moment is estimated non-parametrically to avoid the size problems when the innovations are non-Gaussian (see, Sansó et al., 2004). Critical values and p-values are generated using a Generalized Extreme Value distribution approach. References Carrion-i-Silvestre J.J & Sansó A (2026) <doi:10.1080/03610918.2026.2615207>.
