Dose-response modeling for negative-binomial distributed data with a variety of dose-response models. Covariate adjustment and Bayesian model averaging is supported. Functions are provided to easily obtain inference on the dose-response relationship and plot the dose-response curve.

This package provides a clustered random forest algorithm for fitting random forests for data of independent clusters, that exhibit within cluster dependence. Details of the method can be found in Young and Buehlmann (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2503.12634>.

This package provides functions to produce some circular plots for circular data, in a height- or area-proportional manner. They include bar plots, smooth density plots, stacked dot plots, histograms, multi-class stacked smooth density plots, and multi-class stacked histograms.

This package provides functions for nonlinear regression parameters estimation by algorithms based on Controlled Random Search algorithm. Both functions (crs4hc(), crs4hce()) adapt current search strategy by four heuristics competition. In addition, crs4hce() improves adaptability by adaptive stopping condition.

Differential Analysis of short RNA transcripts that can be modeled by either Poisson or Negative binomial distribution. The statistical methodology implemented in this package is based on the random selection of references genes (Desaulle et al. (2021) <arXiv:2103.09872>).

Implementations of the treatment effect estimators for hybrid (self-selection) experiments, as developed by Brian J. Gaines and James H. Kuklinski, (2011), "Experimental Estimation of Heterogeneous Treatment Effects Related to Self-Selection," American Journal of Political Science 55(3): 724-736.

This package contains published data sets for global benthic d18O data for 0-5.3 Myr <doi:10.1029/2004PA001071> and global sea levels based on marine sediment core data for 0-800 ka <doi:10.5194/cp-12-1-2016>.

Generate multiple data sets for educational purposes to demonstrate the importance of multiple regression. The genset function generates a data set from an initial data set to have the same summary statistics (mean, median, and standard deviation) but opposing regression results.

Graceful ggplot'-based graphics and utility functions for working with generalized additive models (GAMs) fitted using the mgcv package. Provides a reimplementation of the plot() method for GAMs that mgcv provides, as well as tidyverse compatible representations of estimated smooths.

This package provides a tool to sensitivity analysis using SOBOL (Sobol, 1993) and AMA (Dell'Oca et al. 2017 <doi:10.5194/hess-21-6219-2017>) indices. It allows to identify the most sensitive parameter or parameters of a model.

Load polar volume and vertical profile data for aeroecological research directly into R. With getRad you can access data from several sources in Europe and the US and standardize it to facilitate further exploration in tools such as bioRad'.

Implementation of MCMC algorithms to estimate the Hierarchical Dirichlet Process Generalized Linear Model (hdpGLM) presented in the paper Ferrari (2020) Modeling Context-Dependent Latent Heterogeneity, Political Analysis <DOI:10.1017/pan.2019.13> and <doi:10.18637/jss.v107.i10>.

Converts among many citation formats, including BibTeX', Citeproc', Codemeta', RDF XML', RIS', Schema.org', and Citation File Format'. A low level R6 class is provided, as well as stand-alone functions for each citation format for both read and write.

Fitting hidden Markov models using automatic differentiation and Laplace approximation, allowing for fast inference and flexible covariate effects (including random effects and smoothing splines) on model parameters. The package is described by Michelot (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2211.14139>.

Estimate parameters of the hysteretic threshold autoregressive (HysTAR) model, using conditional least squares. In addition, you can generate time series data from the HysTAR model. For details, see Li, Guan, Li and Yu (2015) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asv017>.

Estimation and diagnostic tools for instrumental variables designs, which implements the guidelines proposed in Lal et al. (2023) <arXiv:2303.11399>, including bootstrapped confidence intervals, effective F-statistic, Anderson-Rubin test, valid-t ratio test, and local-to-zero tests.

Convert an R Markdown documents into an .xlsx spreadsheet reports with the knitxl() function, which works similarly to knit() from the knitr package. The generated report can be opened in Excel or similar software for further analysis and presentation.

This package provides a bioinformatics pipeline for performing taxonomic assignment of DNA metabarcoding sequence data while considering geographic location. A detailed tutorial is available at <https://urodelan.github.io/Local_Taxa_Tool_Tutorial/>. A manuscript describing these methods is in preparation.

This toolkit allows performing continuous-time microsimulation for a wide range of life science (demography, social sciences, epidemiology) applications. Individual life-courses are specified by a continuous-time multi-state model as described in Zinn (2014) <doi:10.34196/IJM.00105>.
