Identify statistically significant flow clusters using the local spatial network autocorrelation statistic G_ij* proposed by Berglund and Karlström (1999) <doi:10.1007/s101090050013>. The metric, an extended statistic of Getis/Ord G ('Getis and Ord 1992) <doi:10.1111/j.1538-4632.1992.tb00261.x>, detects a group of flows having similar traits in terms of directionality. You provide OD data and the associated polygon to get results with several parameters, some of which are defined by spdep package.

The current version of this package estimates spatial autoregressive models for binary dependent variables using GMM estimators <doi:10.18637/jss.v107.i08>. It supports one-step (Pinkse and Slade, 1998) <doi:10.1016/S0304-4076(97)00097-3> and two-step GMM estimator along with the linearized GMM estimator proposed by Klier and McMillen (2008) <doi:10.1198/073500107000000188>. It also allows for either Probit or Logit model and compute the average marginal effects. All these models are presented in Sarrias and Piras (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.jocm.2023.100432>.

This package provides functions for Bayesian Predictive Stacking within the Bayesian transfer learning framework for geospatial artificial systems, as introduced in "Bayesian Transfer Learning for Artificially Intelligent Geospatial Systems: A Predictive Stacking Approach" (Presicce and Banerjee, 2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.09504>. This methodology enables efficient Bayesian geostatistical modeling, utilizing predictive stacking to improve inference across spatial datasets. The core functions leverage C++ for high-performance computation, making the framework well-suited for large-scale spatial data analysis in parallel and distributed computing environments. Designed for scalability, it allows seamless application in computationally demanding scenarios.

This package provides a tool for survival analysis using a discrete time approach with ensemble binary classification. spect provides a simple interface consistent with commonly used R data analysis packages, such as caret', a variety of parameter options to help facilitate search automation, a high degree of transparency to the end-user - all intermediate data sets and parameters are made available for further analysis and useful, out-of-the-box visualizations of model performance. Methods for transforming survival data into discrete-time are adapted from the autosurv package by Suresh et al., (2022) <doi:10.1186/s12874-022-01679-6>.

SPIAT (**Sp**atial **I**mage **A**nalysis of **T**issues) is an R package with a suite of data processing, quality control, visualization and data analysis tools. SPIAT is compatible with data generated from single-cell spatial proteomics platforms (e.g. OPAL, CODEX, MIBI, cellprofiler). SPIAT reads spatial data in the form of X and Y coordinates of cells, marker intensities and cell phenotypes. SPIAT includes six analysis modules that allow visualization, calculation of cell colocalization, categorization of the immune microenvironment relative to tumor areas, analysis of cellular neighborhoods, and the quantification of spatial heterogeneity, providing a comprehensive toolkit for spatial data analysis.

Inference based on models with or without spatially-correlated random effects, multivariate responses, or non-Gaussian random effects (e.g., Beta). Variation in residual variance (heteroscedasticity) can itself be represented by a mixed-effect model. Both classical geostatistical models (Rousset and Ferdy 2014 <doi:10.1111/ecog.00566>), and Markov random field models on irregular grids (as considered in the INLA package, <https://www.r-inla.org>), can be fitted, with distinct computational procedures exploiting the sparse matrix representations for the latter case and other autoregressive models. Laplace approximations are used for likelihood or restricted likelihood. Penalized quasi-likelihood and other variants discussed in the h-likelihood literature (Lee and Nelder 2001 <doi:10.1093/biomet/88.4.987>) are also implemented.

Implementation of SPECS, your favourite Single-Equation Penalized Error-Correction Selector developed in Smeekes and Wijler (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2020.07.021>. SPECS provides a fully automated estimation procedure for large and potentially (co)integrated datasets. The dataset in levels is converted to a conditional error-correction model, either by the user or by means of the functions included in this package, and various specialised forms of penalized regression can be applied to the model. Automated options for initializing and selecting a sequence of penalties, as well as the construction of penalty weights via an initial estimator, are available. Moreover, the user may choose from a number of pre-specified deterministic configurations to further simplify the model building process.

The developed package can be used to generate a spatial population for different levels of relationships among the dependent and auxiliary variables along with spatially varying model parameters. A spatial layout is designed as a [0,k-1]x[0,k-1] square region on which observations are collected at (k x k) lattice points with a unit distance between any two neighbouring points along the horizontal and vertical axes. For method details see Chao, Liu., Chuanhua, Wei. and Yunan, Su. (2018).<doi:10.1080/10485252.2018.1499907>. The generated spatial population can be utilized in Geographically Weighted Regression model based analysis for studying the spatially varying relationships among the variables. Furthermore, various statistical analysis can be performed on this spatially generated data.

It is a toolbox for Sequential Probability Ratio Tests (SPRT), Wald (1945) <doi:10.2134/agronj1947.00021962003900070011x>. SPRTs are applied to the data during the sampling process, ideally after each observation. At any stage, the test will return a decision to either continue sampling or terminate and accept one of the specified hypotheses. The seq_ttest() function performs one-sample, two-sample, and paired t-tests for testing one- and two-sided hypotheses (Schnuerch & Erdfelder (2019) <doi:10.1037/met0000234>). The seq_anova() function allows to perform a sequential one-way fixed effects ANOVA (Steinhilber et al. (2023) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/m64ne>).

Surface Protein abundance Estimation using CKmeans-based clustered thresholding ('SPECK') is an unsupervised learning-based method that performs receptor abundance estimation for single cell RNA-sequencing data based on reduced rank reconstruction (RRR) and a clustered thresholding mechanism. Seurat's normalization method is described in: Hao et al., (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.cell.2021.04.048>, Stuart et al., (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.cell.2019.05.031>, Butler et al., (2018) <doi:10.1038/nbt.4096> and Satija et al., (2015) <doi:10.1038/nbt.3192>. Method for the RRR is further detailed in: Erichson et al., (2019) <doi:10.18637/jss.v089.i11> and Halko et al., (2009) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.0909.4061>.

This package provides a collection of functions to test and estimate Seemingly Unrelated Regression (usually called SUR) models, with spatial structure, by maximum likelihood and three-stage least squares. The package estimates the most common spatial specifications, that is, SUR with Spatial Lag of X regressors (called SUR-SLX), SUR with Spatial Lag Model (called SUR-SLM), SUR with Spatial Error Model (called SUR-SEM), SUR with Spatial Durbin Model (called SUR-SDM), SUR with Spatial Durbin Error Model (called SUR-SDEM), SUR with Spatial Autoregressive terms and Spatial Autoregressive Disturbances (called SUR-SARAR), SUR-SARAR with Spatial Lag of X regressors (called SUR-GNM) and SUR with Spatially Independent Model (called SUR-SIM). The methodology of these models can be found in next references Minguez, R., Lopez, F.A., and Mur, J. (2022) <doi:10.18637/jss.v104.i11> Mur, J., Lopez, F.A., and Herrera, M. (2010) <doi:10.1080/17421772.2010.516443> Lopez, F.A., Mur, J., and Angulo, A. (2014) <doi:10.1007/s00168-014-0624-2>.

Functionality for spatio-temporal modeling of large data sets is provided. A Gaussian process in space and time is defined through a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE). The SPDE is solved in the spectral space, and after discretizing in time and space, a linear Gaussian state space model is obtained. When doing inference, the main computational difficulty consists in evaluating the likelihood and in sampling from the full conditional of the spectral coefficients, or equivalently, the latent space-time process. In comparison to the traditional approach of using a spatio-temporal covariance function, the spectral SPDE approach is computationally advantageous. See Sigrist, Kuensch, and Stahel (2015) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12061> for more information on the methodology. This package aims at providing tools for two different modeling approaches. First, the SPDE based spatio-temporal model can be used as a component in a customized hierarchical Bayesian model (HBM). The functions of the package then provide parameterizations of the process part of the model as well as computationally efficient algorithms needed for doing inference with the HBM. Alternatively, the adaptive MCMC algorithm implemented in the package can be used as an algorithm for doing inference without any additional modeling. The MCMC algorithm supports data that follow a Gaussian or a censored distribution with point mass at zero. Covariates can be included in the model through a regression term.
