This is a R implementation of "Minimum SNPs" software as described in "Price E.P., Inman-Bamber, J., Thiruvenkataswamy, V., Huygens, F and Giffard, P.M." (2007) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-8-278> "Computer-aided identification of polymorphism sets diagnostic for groups of bacterial and viral genetic variants.".

This package implements the out-of-treatment testing from Kuelpmann and Kuzmics (2020) <doi:10.2139/ssrn.3441675> based on the Vuong Test introduced in Vuong (1989) <doi:10.2307/1912557>. Out-of treatment testing allows for a direct, pairwise likelihood comparison of theories, calibrated with pre-existing data.

An object oriented framework to simulate ecological (and other) dynamic systems. It can be used for differential equations, individual-based (or agent-based) and other models as well. It supports structuring of simulation scenarios (to avoid copy and paste) and aims to improve readability and re-usability of code.

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.

An automatic cluster-based annotation pipeline based on evidence-based score by matching the marker genes with known cell markers in tissue-specific cell taxonomy reference database for single-cell RNA-seq data. See Shao X, et al (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.isci.2020.100882> for more details.

Collection (syllogi in greek) of real and fictitious data sets for teaching purposes. The datasets were manually entered by the author from the respective references as listed in the individual dataset documentation. The fictions datasets are the creation of the author, that he has found useful for teaching statistics.

Simulates the cultural evolution of quantitative traits of bird song. SongEvo is an individual- (agent-) based model. SongEvo is spatially-explicit and can be parameterized with, and tested against, measured song data. Functions are available for model implementation, sensitivity analyses, parameter optimization, model validation, and hypothesis testing.

This package implements the Residual-Based Fully Modified Vector Autoregression (RBFM-VAR) estimator of Chang (2000) <doi:10.1017/S0266466600166071>. The RBFM-VAR procedure extends Phillips (1995) FM-VAR to handle any unknown mixture of I(0), I(1), and I(2) components without prior knowledge of the number or location of unit roots. Provides automatic lag selection via information criteria (AIC, BIC, HQ), long-run variance estimation using Bartlett, Parzen, or Quadratic Spectral kernels with Andrews (1991) <doi:10.2307/2938229> automatic bandwidth selection, Granger non-causality testing with asymptotically chi-squared Wald statistics, impulse response functions (IRF) with bootstrap confidence intervals, forecast error variance decomposition (FEVD), and out-of-sample forecasting.

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.

Allows the user to determine minimum sample sizes that achieve target size and power at a specified alternative. For more information, see â Exact samples sizes for clinical trials subject to size and power constraintsâ by Lloyd, C.J. (2022) Preprint <doi:10.13140/RG.2.2.11828.94085>.

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.

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.

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>.

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.

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.

On Galaxy platforms like Galaxy Europe <https://usegalaxy.eu>, many tools and workflows can run directly on a high-performance computer. GalaxyR connects R with Galaxy platforms API <https://usegalaxy.eu/api/docs> and allows credential management, uploading data, invoking workflows or tools, checking their status, and downloading results.

This package provides functions to identify European NUTS (Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics) regions for geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude) using Eurostat geospatial boundaries. Includes map-based visualisation of the matched regions for validation and exploration. Designed for regional data analysis, reproducible workflows, and integration with common geospatial R packages.

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.
