Estimation of unknown historical or archaeological dates subject to relationships with other relative dates and absolute constraints, derived as marginal densities from the full joint conditional, using a two-stage Gibbs sampler with consistent batch means to assess convergence. Features reporting on Monte Carlo standard errors, as well as tools for rule-based estimation of dates of production and use of artifact types, aligning and checking relative sequences, and evaluating the impact of the omission of relative/absolute events upon one another.

Gene regulatory network constructed using combined score obtained from individual network inference method. The combined score measures the significance of edges in the ensemble network. Fisher's weighted method has been implemented to combine the outcomes of different methods based on the probability values. The combined score follows chi-square distribution with 2n degrees of freedom. <doi:10.22271/09746315.2020.v16.i3.1358>.

Using variational techniques we address some epidemiological problems as the incidence curve decomposition by inverting the renewal equation as described in Alvarez et al. (2021) <doi:10.1073/pnas.2105112118> and Alvarez et al. (2022) <doi:10.3390/biology11040540> or the estimation of the functional relationship between epidemiological indicators. We also propose a learning method for the short time forecast of the trend incidence curve as described in Morel et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.11.05.22281904>.

This package provides API access to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration ('EIA') <https://www.eia.gov/>. Use of the EIA's API and this package requires a free API key obtainable at <https://www.eia.gov/opendata/register.php>. This package includes functions for searching the EIA data directory and returning time series and geoset time series datasets. Datasets returned by these functions are provided by default in a tidy format, or alternatively, in more raw formats. It also offers helper functions for working with EIA date strings and time formats and for inspecting different summaries of series metadata. The package also provides control over API key storage and caching of API request results.

An R interface to United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Environmental Compliance History Online ('ECHO') Application Program Interface (API). ECHO provides information about EPA permitted facilities, discharges, and other reporting info associated with permitted entities. Data are obtained from <https://echo.epa.gov/>.

Count regression models for underdispersed small counts (lambda < 20) based on the three-parameter exponentially weighted Poisson distribution of Ridout & Besbeas (2004) <DOI:10.1191/1471082X04st064oa>.

The main functions are emmreml', and emmremlMultiKernel'. emmreml solves a mixed model with known covariance structure using the EMMA algorithm. emmremlMultiKernel is a wrapper for emmreml to handle multiple random components with known covariance structures. The function emmremlMultivariate solves a multivariate gaussian mixed model with known covariance structure using the ECM algorithm.

Model fitting and species biotic interaction network topology selection for explicit interaction community models. Explicit interaction community models are an extension of binomial linear models for joint modelling of species communities, that incorporate both the effects of species biotic interactions and the effects of missing covariates. Species interactions are modelled as direct effects of each species on each of the others, and are estimated alongside the effects of missing covariates, modelled as latent factors. The package includes a penalized maximum likelihood fitting function, and a genetic algorithm for selecting the most parsimonious species interaction network topology.

This package contains methods for observed-score linking and equating under the single-group, equivalent-groups, and nonequivalent-groups with anchor test(s) designs.

Equating methods include synthetic, nominal weights, Tucker, Levine observed score, Levine true score, Braun/Holland, frequency estimation, and chained equating. Plotting and summary methods, and methods for multivariate presmoothing and bootstrap error estimation are also provided.

Fast and easy computation of Euclidean Minimum Spanning Trees (EMST) from data, relying on the R API for mlpack - the C++ Machine Learning Library (Curtin et. al., 2013). emstreeR uses the Dual-Tree Boruvka (March, Ram, Gray, 2010, <doi:10.1145/1835804.1835882>), which is theoretically and empirically the fastest algorithm for computing an EMST. This package also provides functions and an S3 method for readily visualizing Minimum Spanning Trees (MST) using either the style of the base', scatterplot3d', or ggplot2 libraries; and functions to export the MST output to shapefiles.

This package provides a comprehensive toolkit for discovering differential and difference equations from empirical time series data using symbolic regression. The package implements a complete workflow from data preprocessing (including Total Variation Regularized differentiation for noisy economic data), visual exploration of dynamical structure, and symbolic equation discovery via genetic algorithms. It leverages a high-performance Julia backend ('SymbolicRegression.jl') to provide industrial-grade robustness, physics-informed constraints, and rigorous out-of-sample validation. Designed for economists, physicists, and researchers studying dynamical systems from observational data.
