Calculates the Boltzmann entropy of a landscape gradient. This package uses the analytical method created by Gao, P., Zhang, H. and Li, Z., 2018 (<doi:10.1111/tgis.12315>) and by Gao, P. and Li, Z., 2019 (<doi:10.1007/s10980-019-00854-3>). It also extend the original ideas by allowing calculations on data with missing values.

The Bayesian MCMC estimation of parameters for Thomas-type cluster point process with various inhomogeneities. It allows for inhomogeneity in (i) distribution of parent points, (ii) mean number of points in a cluster, (iii) cluster spread. The package also allows for the Bayesian MCMC algorithm for the homogeneous generalized Thomas process. The cluster size is allowed to have a variance that is greater or less than the expected value (cluster sizes are over or under dispersed). Details are described in DvoŠák, RemeÅ¡, Beránek & MrkviÄ ka (2022) <arXiv: 10.48550/arXiv.2205.07946>.

This package creates an interactive graphics interface to visualize backtest results of different financial instruments, such as equities, futures, and credit default swaps. The package does not run backtests on the given data set but displays a graphical explanation of the backtest results. Users can look at backtest graphics for different instruments, investment strategies, and portfolios. Summary statistics of different portfolio holdings are shown in the left panel, and interactive plots of profit and loss (P&L), net market value (NMV) and gross market value (GMV) are displayed in the right panel.

Bayesian estimation and variable selection for quantile regression models.

This package provides nested sequential Monte Carlo algorithms for performing sequential inference in the Bayesian Mallows model, which is a widely used probability model for rank and preference data. The package implements the SMC2 (Sequential Monte Carlo Squared) algorithm for handling sequentially arriving rankings and pairwise preferences, including support for complete rankings, partial rankings, and pairwise comparisons. The methods are based on Sorensen (2025) <doi:10.1214/25-BA1564>.

Efficiently access the Bedrock Bio library of open-access computational biology datasets. Lazily query datasets backed by DuckDB and Apache Iceberg', with support for predicate pushdown and column projection to the cloud storage backend. This enables quick, iterative access to otherwise massive, unwieldy datasets without downloading them in full. See <https://bedrock.bio> for available datasets and documentation.

Build and use B-splines for interpolation and regression. In case of regression, equality constraints as well as monotonicity and/or positivity of B-spline weights can be imposed. Moreover, knot positions can be on regular grid or be part of optimized parameters too (in addition to the spline weights). For this end, bspline is able to calculate Jacobian of basis vectors as function of knot positions. User is provided with functions calculating spline values at arbitrary points. These functions can be differentiated and integrated to obtain B-splines calculating derivatives/integrals at any point. B-splines of this package can simultaneously operate on a series of curves sharing the same set of knots. bspline is written with concern about computing performance that's why the basis and Jacobian calculation is implemented in C++. The rest is implemented in R but without notable impact on computing speed.

Finds the best block diagonal matrix approximation of a symmetric matrix. This can be exploited for divisive hierarchical clustering using singular vectors, named HC-SVD. The method is described in Bauer (202Xa) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2308.06820>.

All the seeds do not germinate at a single point in time due to physiological mechanisms determined by temperature which vary among individual seeds in the population. Seeds germinate by following accumulation of thermal time in degree days/hours, quantified by multiplying the time of germination with excess of base temperature required by each seed for its germination, which follows log-normal distribution. The theoretical germination course can be obtained by regressing the rate of germination at various fractions against temperature (Garcia et al., 1982), where the fraction-wise regression lines intersect the temperature axis at base temperature and the methodology of determining optimum base temperature has been described by Ellis et al. (1987). This package helps to find the base temperature of seed germination using algorithms of Garcia et al. (1982) and Ellis et al. (1982) <doi:10.1093/JXB/38.6.1033> <doi:10.1093/jxb/33.2.288>.

This package provides a set of user-friendly functions designed to fill gaps in existing introductory biostatistics R tools, making it easier for newcomers to perform basic biostatistical analyses without needing advanced programming skills. The methods implemented in this package are based on the works: Connor (1987) <doi:10.2307/2531961> Fleiss, Levin, & Paik (2013, ISBN:978-1-118-62561-3) Levin & Chen (1999) <doi:10.1080/00031305.1999.10474431> McNemar (1947) <doi:10.1007/BF02295996>.

Identifies and visualizes document overlap in any number of bibliographic datasets. This package implements the identification of overlapping documents through the exact match of a unique identifier (e.g. Digital Object Identifier - DOI) and, for records where the identifier is absent, through a score calculated from a set of fields commonly found in bibliographic datasets (Title, Source, Authors and Publication Year). Additionally, it provides functions to visualize the results of the document matching through a Venn diagram and/or UpSet plot, as well as a summary of the matching procedure.

This package provides functions for data preparation, parameter estimation, scoring, and plotting for the BG/BB (Fader, Hardie, and Shang 2010 <doi:10.1287/mksc.1100.0580>), BG/NBD (Fader, Hardie, and Lee 2005 <doi:10.1287/mksc.1040.0098>) and Pareto/NBD and Gamma/Gamma (Fader, Hardie, and Lee 2005 <doi:10.1509/jmkr.2005.42.4.415>) models.

Combines the magick and imager packages to streamline image analysis, focusing on feature extraction and quantification from biological images, especially microparticles. By providing high throughput pipelines and clustering capabilities, biopixR facilitates efficient insight generation for researchers (Schneider J. et al. (2019) <doi:10.21037/jlpm.2019.04.05>).

Usually, it is difficult to plot choropleth maps for Bangladesh in R'. The bangladesh package provides ready-to-use shapefiles for different administrative regions of Bangladesh (e.g., Division, District, Upazila, and Union). This package helps users to draw thematic maps of administrative regions of Bangladesh easily as it comes with the sf objects for the boundaries. It also provides functions allowing users to efficiently get specific area maps and center coordinates for regions. Users can also search for a specific area and calculate the centroids of those areas.

This package contains specialised analyses and visualisation tools for behavior change science. These facilitate conducting determinant studies (for example, using confidence interval-based estimation of relevance, CIBER, or CIBERlite plots, see Crutzen, Noijen & Peters (2017) <doi:10/ghtfz9>), systematically developing, reporting, and analysing interventions (for example, using Acyclic Behavior Change Diagrams), and reporting about intervention effectiveness (for example, using the Numbers Needed for Change, see Gruijters & Peters (2017) <doi:10/jzkt>), and computing the required sample size (using the Meaningful Change Definition, see Gruijters & Peters (2020) <doi:10/ghpnx8>). This package is especially useful for researchers in the field of behavior change or health psychology and to behavior change professionals such as intervention developers and prevention workers.
