This package provides a straightforward model to estimate soil migration rates across various soil contexts. Based on the compartmental, vertically-resolved, physically-based mass balance model of Soto and Navas (2004) <doi:10.1016/j.jaridenv.2004.02.003> and Soto and Navas (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.radmeas.2008.02.024>. RadEro provides a user-friendly interface in R, utilizing input data such as 137Cs inventories and parameters directly derived from soil samples (e.g., fine fraction density, effective volume) to accurately capture the 137Cs distribution within the soil profile. The model simulates annual 137Cs fallout, radioactive decay, and vertical diffusion, with the diffusion coefficient calculated from 137Cs reference inventory profiles. Additionally, it allows users to input custom parameters as calibration coefficients. The RadEro user manual and protocol, including detailed instructions on how to format input data and configuration files, can be found at the following link: <https://github.com/eead-csic-eesa/RadEro>.

Prognostic Enrichment is a clinical trial strategy of evaluating an intervention in a patient population with a higher rate of the unwanted event than the broader patient population (R. Temple (2010) <DOI:10.1038/clpt.2010.233>). A higher event rate translates to a lower sample size for the clinical trial, which can have both practical and ethical advantages. This package is a tool to help evaluate biomarkers for prognostic enrichment of clinical trials.

Infrastructure for estimating probabilistic distributional regression models in a Bayesian framework. The distribution parameters may capture location, scale, shape, etc. and every parameter may depend on complex additive terms (fixed, random, smooth, spatial, etc.) similar to a generalized additive model. The conceptual and computational framework is introduced in Umlauf, Klein, Zeileis (2019) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2017.1407325> and the R package in Umlauf, Klein, Simon, Zeileis (2021) <doi:10.18637/jss.v100.i04>.

This package provides methods for fitting nonstationary Gaussian process models by spatial deformation, as introduced by Sampson and Guttorp (1992) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1992.10475181>, and by dimension expansion, as introduced by Bornn et al. (2012) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2011.646919>. Low-rank thin-plate regression splines, as developed in Wood, S.N. (2003) <doi:10.1111/1467-9868.00374>, are used to either transform co-ordinates or create new latent dimensions.

For identifying, estimating, and plotting descriptive multidimensional item response theory models, restricted to 3D and dichotomous or polytomous data that fit the two-parameter logistic model or the graded response model. The method is foremost explorative and centered around the plot function that exposes item characteristics and constructs, represented by vector arrows, located in a three-dimensional interactive latent space. The results can be useful for item-level analysis as well as test development.

Quantify the serial correlation across lags of a given functional time series using the autocorrelation function and a partial autocorrelation function for functional time series proposed in Mestre et al. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2020.107108>. The autocorrelation functions are based on the L2 norm of the lagged covariance operators of the series. Functions are available for estimating the distribution of the autocorrelation functions under the assumption of strong functional white noise.

Easy wrangling and model-free analysis of microbial growth curve data, as commonly output by plate readers. Tools for reshaping common plate reader outputs into tidy formats and merging them with design information, making data easy to work with using gcplyr and other packages. Also streamlines common growth curve processing steps, like smoothing and calculating derivatives, and facilitates model-free characterization and analysis of growth data. See methods at <https://mikeblazanin.github.io/gcplyr/>.

Organize a so-called ragged array as generalized arrays, which is simply an array with sub-dimensions denoting the subdivision of dimensions (grouping of members within dimensions). By the margins (names of dimensions and sub-dimensions) in generalized arrays, operators and utility functions provided in this package automatically match the margins, doing map-reduce style parallel computation along margins. Generalized arrays are also cooperative to R's native functions that work on simple arrays.

The model is high-dimensional vector autoregression with measurement error, also known as linear gaussian state-space model. Provable sparse expectation-maximization algorithm is provided for the estimation of transition matrix and noise variances. Global and simultaneous testings are implemented for transition matrix with false discovery rate control. For more information, see the accompanying paper: Lyu, X., Kang, J., & Li, L. (2023).

Implementation of the methods described in Holzmann, Klar (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2303.17872>. Lancaster correlation is a correlation coefficient which equals the absolute value of the Pearson correlation for the bivariate normal distribution, and is equal to or slightly less than the maximum correlation coefficient for a variety of bivariate distributions. Rank and moment-based estimators and corresponding confidence intervals are implemented, as well as independence tests based on these statistics.

The focus is providing visual methods for better understanding the model output and for aiding model checking and development beyond simple exponential family regression. The graphical framework is based on the layering system provided by ggplot2'.

This package provides a method to find the outlier in custom data by quantile random forests method. Introduced by Meinshausen Nicolai (2006) <https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.5555/1248547.1248582>. It directly calls the ranger() function of the ranger package to perform data fitting and prediction. We also implement the evaluation of outlier prediction results. Compared with random forest detection of outliers, this method has higher accuracy and stability on large datasets.
