Adds support for R startup configuration via .Renviron.d and .Rprofile.d directories in addition to .Renviron and .Rprofile files. This makes it possible to keep private / secret environment variables separate from other environment variables. It also makes it easier to share specific startup settings by simply copying a file to a directory.

The new version also supports unobserved component ARIMA model specification and estimation for structural time series analysis.

This package performs transformation discrimination analysis and non-transformation discrimination analysis. It also includes functions for Linear Discriminant Analysis, Quadratic Discriminant Analysis, and Mixture Discriminant Analysis. In the context of mixture discriminant analysis, it offers options for both common covariance matrix (common sigma) and individual covariance matrices (uncommon sigma) for the mixture components.

The outcome of various rehabilitation strategies for water distribution systems can be modeled with the Water Management Simulator (WaMaSim). Pipe breaks and the corresponding damage and rehabilitation costs are simulated. It is mainly intended to be used as educational tool for the Water Infrastructure Experimental and Computer Laboratory at ETH Zurich, Switzerland.

The genome is divided into non-overlapping fixed-sized bins, number of sequence reads in each counted, adjusted with a simultaneous two-dimensional loess correction for sequence mappability and GC content, and filtered to remove spurious regions in the genome. Downstream steps of segmentation and calling are also implemented via packages DNAcopy and CGHcall, respectively.

This package contains various routines for drawing ellipses and ellipse-like confidence regions, implementing the plots described in Murdoch and Chow (1996), A graphical display of large correlation matrices, The American Statistician 50, 178-180. There are also routines implementing the profile plots described in Bates and Watts (1988), Nonlinear Regression Analysis and its Applications.

This package implements a general framework for finite mixtures of regression models using the EM algorithm. FlexMix provides the E-step and all data handling, while the M-step can be supplied by the user to easily define new models. Existing drivers implement mixtures of standard linear models, generalized linear models and model-based clustering.

This package provides a regular expression toolkit for regex-base with compile-time checking of regular expression syntax, data types for matches and captures, a text replacement toolkit, portable options, high-level AWK-like tools for building text processing apps, regular expression macros with parsers and test bench, comprehensive documentation, tutorials and copious examples.

The 6581 SID chip is the sound chip used in the Commodore 64 computer. reMID is a MIDI implementation of the 6581 SID chip using the reSID library to provide a virtual SID-based synthesizer, controllable in real-time via MIDI. It includes support for scripted instruments that allow complex sonic control of the chip.

This package provides functions to accompany the book "Applied Statistical Modeling for Ecologists" by Marc Kéry and Kenneth F. Kellner (2024, ISBN: 9780443137150). Included are functions for simulating and customizing the datasets used for the example models in each chapter, summarizing output from model fitting engines, and running custom Markov Chain Monte Carlo.

Perceptually uniform palettes for commonly used variables in oceanography as functions taking an integer and producing character vectors of colours. See Thyng, K.M., Greene, C.A., Hetland, R.D., Zimmerle, H.M. and S.F. DiMarco (2016) <doi:10.5670/oceanog.2016.66> for the guidelines adhered to when creating the palettes.

Compute energy fluxes in trophic networks, from resources to their consumers, and can be applied to systems ranging from simple two-species interactions to highly complex food webs. It implements the approach described in Gauzens et al. (2017) <doi:10.1101/229450> to calculate energy fluxes, which are also used to calculate equilibrium stability.

We implement a cocktail algorithm, a good mixture of coordinate decent, the majorization-minimization principle and the strong rule, for computing the solution paths of the elastic net penalized Cox's proportional hazards model. The package is an implementation of Yang, Y. and Zou, H. (2013) <doi:10.4310/SII.2013.v6.n2.a1>.

Using the idea of least trimmed square, it could automatically detects and removes outliers from data before estimating the coefficients. It is a robust machine learning tool which can be applied to gene-expression deconvolution technique. Yuning Hao, Ming Yan, Blake R. Heath, Yu L. Lei and Yuying Xie (2019) <doi:10.1101/358366>.

(2005), <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9876.2005.00510.x> and implemented using functions from the gamlss package <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.gamlss>.

Defines classes and methods that can be used to implement genetic algorithms for feature selection. The idea is that we want to select a fixed number of features to combine into a linear classifier that can predict a binary outcome, and can use a genetic algorithm heuristically to select an optimal set of features.

This package provides functions to help with creating sparklines in the style of Edward Tufte <https://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0001OR&topic_id=1> in ggplot2'. It computes ribbon geoms with the interquartile ranges and points and/or labels at the beginning, end, max, and min points.

This package contains many functions useful for monitoring and reporting the results of clinical trials and other experiments in which treatments are compared. LaTeX is used to typeset the resulting reports, recommended to be in the context of knitr'. The Hmisc', ggplot2', and lattice packages are used by greport for high-level graphics.

Holistic generalized linear models (HGLMs) extend generalized linear models (GLMs) by enabling the possibility to add further constraints to the model. The holiglm package simplifies estimating HGLMs using convex optimization. Additional information about the package can be found in the reference manual, the README and the accompanying paper <doi:10.18637/jss.v108.i07>.
