Sets the alpha level for coefficients in a regression model as a decreasing function of the sample size through the use of Jeffreys Approximate Bayes factor. You tell alphaN() your sample size, and it tells you to which value you must lower alpha to avoid Lindley's Paradox. For details, see Wulff and Taylor (2024) <doi:10.1177/14761270231214429>.

Survey systems and other third-party data sources commonly use non-standard representations of logical values when it comes to qualitative data - "Yes", "No" and "N/A", say. batman is a package designed to seamlessly convert these into logicals. It is highly localised, and contains equivalents to boolean values in languages including German, French, Spanish, Italian, Turkish, Chinese and Polish.

Compare dissolution profiles with confidence interval of similarity factor f2 using bootstrap methodology as described in the literature, such as Efron and Tibshirani (1993, ISBN:9780412042317), Davison and Hinkley (1997, ISBN:9780521573917), and Shah et al. (1998) <doi:10.1023/A:1011976615750>. The package can also be used to simulate dissolution profiles based on mathematical modelling and multivariate normal distribution.

This package contains functions that can determine whether a time series is second-order stationary or not (and hence evidence for locally stationarity). Given two non-stationary series (i.e. locally stationary series) this package can then discover time-varying linear combinations that are second-order stationary. Cardinali, A. and Nason, G.P. (2013) <doi:10.18637/jss.v055.i01>.

Matrix-variate covariance estimation via the Kronecker-core decomposition. Computes the Kronecker and core covariance matrices corresponding to an arbitrary covariance matrix, and provides an empirical Bayes covariance estimator that adaptively shrinks towards the space of separable covariance matrices. For details, see Hoff, McCormack and Zhang (2022) <arXiv:2207.12484> "Core Shrinkage Covariance Estimation for Matrix-variate data".

Extends the functionality of R serialization by augmenting the built-in reference hook system. This enhanced implementation allows optimal, one-pass integrated serialization that combines R serialization with third-party serialization methods. Facilitates the serialization of even complex R objects, which contain non-system reference objects, such as those accessed via external pointers, for use in parallel and distributed computing.

An ADMM implementation of SDP-1, a semidefinite programming relaxation of the maximum likelihood estimator for fitting a block model. SDP-1 has a tendency to produce equal-sized blocks and is ideal for producing a form of network histogram approximating a nonparametric graphon model. Alternatively, it can be used for community detection. (This is experimental code, proceed with caution.).

An easy way to examine archaeological count data. This package provides several tests and measures of diversity: heterogeneity and evenness (Brillouin, Shannon, Simpson, etc.), richness and rarefaction (Chao1, Chao2, ACE, ICE, etc.), turnover and similarity (Brainerd-Robinson, etc.). It allows to easily visualize count data and statistical thresholds: rank vs abundance plots, heatmaps, Ford (1962) and Bertin (1977) diagrams, etc.

This package provides a kernel of functions for programming time series methods in a way that is relatively independently of the representation of time. Also provides plotting, time windowing, and some other utility functions which are specifically intended for time series. See the Guide distributed as a vignette, or ?tframe.Intro for more details. (User utilities are in package tfplot.).

This package provides an interface to a HashiCorp vault server over its http API (typically these are self-hosted; see <https://www.vaultproject.io>). This allows for secure storage and retrieval of secrets over a network, such as tokens, passwords and certificates. Authentication with vault is supported through several backends including user name/password and authentication via GitHub'.

Estimates and simulates Kuhn-Tucker demand models with individual heterogeneity. The package implements the multiple-discrete continuous extreme value (MDCEV) model and the Kuhn-Tucker specification common in the environmental economics literature on recreation demand. Latent class and random parameters specifications can be implemented and the models are fit using maximum likelihood estimation or Bayesian estimation. All models are implemented in Stan (see Stan Development Team, 2019) <https://mc-stan.org/>. The package also implements demand forecasting (Pinjari and Bhat (2011) <https://repositories.lib.utexas.edu/handle/2152/23880>) and welfare calculation (Lloyd-Smith (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.jocm.2017.12.002>) for policy simulation. Stan models can be estimated using either the cmdstanr (default) or rstan backend. If using cmdstanr', then user will need to install cmdstanr manually <https://mc-stan.org/cmdstanr/>.

Performs brace expansions on strings. Made popular by Unix shells, brace expansion allows users to concisely generate certain character vectors by taking a single string and (recursively) expanding the comma-separated lists and double-period-separated integer and character sequences enclosed within braces in that string. The double-period-separated numeric integer expansion also supports padding the resulting numbers with zeros.

The tictoc package provides the timing functions tic and toc that can be nested. It provides an alternative to system.time() with a different syntax similar to that in another well-known software package. tic and toc are easy to use, and are especially useful when timing several sections in more than a few lines of code.
