Provide regularized principal component analysis incorporating smoothness, sparseness and orthogonality of eigen-functions by using the alternating direction method of multipliers algorithm (Wang and Huang, 2017, <DOI:10.1080/10618600.2016.1157483>). The method can be applied to either regularly or irregularly spaced data, including 1D, 2D, and 3D.

Robustness checks for omitted variable bias. The package includes robustness checks proposed by Oster (2019). The robomit package computes i) the bias-adjusted treatment correlation or effect and ii) the degree of selection on unobservables relative to observables (with respect to the treatment variable) that would be necessary to eliminate the result based on the framework by Oster (2019). The code is based on the psacalc command in Stata'. Additionally, robomit offers a set of sensitivity analysis and visualization functions. See Oster, E. 2019. <doi:10.1080/07350015.2016.1227711>. Additionally, see Diegert, P., Masten, M. A., & Poirier, A. (2022) for a recent discussion of the topic: <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2206.02303>.

Keep track of dates in terms of fractional calendar months per Damien Laker "Time Calculations for Annualizing Returns: the Need for Standardization", The Journal of Performance Measurement, 2008. Model dates as of close of business. Perform date arithmetic in units of "months" and "years". Allow "infinite" dates to model "ultimate" time.

Haml is a layer on top of HTML or XML that is designed to express the structure of documents using indentation rather than closing tags. It was originally envisioned as a plugin for Ruby on Rails, but it can function as a stand-alone templating engine.

Application of the filtered monotonic polynomial (FMP) item response model to flexibly fit item response models. The package includes tools that allow the item response model to be build on any monotonic transformation of the latent trait metric, as described by Feuerstahler (2019) <doi:10.1007/s11336-018-9642-9>.

Shiny apps can often make use of the same key elements, this package provides modules for common tasks (data upload, wrangling data, figure generation and saving the app state), and also a framework for developing. These modules can react and interact as well as generate code to create reproducible analyses.

Compute labels for a test set according to the k-Nearest Neighbors classification. This is a fast way to do k-Nearest Neighbors classification because the distance matrix -between the features of the observations- is an input to the function rather than being calculated in the function itself every time.

This package provides a collection of methods for modeling time-to-event data using both functional and scalar predictors. It implements functional data analysis techniques for estimation and inference, allowing researchers to assess the impact of functional covariates on survival outcomes, including time-to-single event and recurrent event outcomes.

Compute alpha and beta contributional diversity metrics, which is intended for linking taxonomic and functional microbiome data. See GitHub repository for the tutorial: <https://github.com/gavinmdouglas/FuncDiv/wiki>. Citation: Gavin M. Douglas, Sunu Kim, Morgan G. I. Langille, B. Jesse Shapiro (2023) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btac809>.

This package provides a fast and flexible implementation of Callaway and Sant'Anna's (2021)<doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2020.12.001> staggered Difference-in-Differences (DiD) estimators, fastdid reduces the computation time from hours to seconds, and incorporates extensions such as time-varying covariates and multiple events.

This package provides a toolkit for analytical variance estimation in survey sampling. Apart from the implementation of standard variance estimators, its main feature is to help the sampling expert produce easy-to-use variance estimation "wrappers", where systematic operations (linearization, domain estimation) are handled in a consistent and transparent way.

Estimation of gross output production functions and productivity in the presence of numerous fixed (nonflexible) and a single flexible input using the nonparametric identification strategy specified in Gandhi, Navarro, and Rivers (2020) <doi:10.1086/707736>. Monte Carlo evidence from the paper demonstrates high performance in estimating production function elasticities.

Clustering of high dimensional data with Hidden Markov Model on Variable Blocks (HMM-VB) fitted via Baum-Welch algorithm. Clustering is performed by the Modal Baum-Welch algorithm (MBW), which finds modes of the density function. Lin Lin and Jia Li (2017) <https://jmlr.org/papers/v18/16-342.html>.

Processing of Landsat or other multispectral satellite imagery. Includes relative normalization, image-based radiometric correction, and topographic correction options. The original package description was published as Goslee (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v043.i04>, and details of the topographic corrections in Goslee (2012) <doi:10.14358/PERS.78.9.973>.

Helper functions to build SQL statements for dbGetQuery or dbSendQuery under program control. They are intended to increase speed of coding and to reduce coding errors. Arguments are carefully checked, in particular SQL identifiers such as names of tables or columns. More patterns will be added as required.

This package provides functions provide comprehensive treatments for estimating, inferring, testing and model selecting in linear regression models with structural breaks. The tests, estimation methods, inference and information criteria implemented are discussed in Bai and Perron (1998) "Estimating and Testing Linear Models with Multiple Structural Changes" <doi:10.2307/2998540>.
