Streamlines and accelerates the process of saving and loading R objects, improving speed and compression compared to other methods. The package provides two compression formats: the qs2 format, which uses R serialization via the C API while optimizing compression and disk I/O, and the qdata format, featuring custom serialization for slightly faster performance and better compression. Additionally, the qs2 format can be directly converted to the standard RDS format, ensuring long-term compatibility with future versions of R.

This package produces quality scores for each of the US companies from the Russell 3000, following the approach described in "Quality Minus Junk" (Asness, Frazzini, & Pedersen, 2013) <http://www.aqr.com/library/working-papers/quality-minus-junk>. The package includes datasets for users who wish to view the most recently uploaded quality scores. It also provides tools to automatically gather relevant financials and stock price information, allowing users to update their data and customize their universe for further analysis.

We provide a suite of tools for estimating the sample complexity of a chosen model through theoretical bounds and simulation. The package incorporates methods for estimating the Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension (VCD) of a chosen algorithm, which can be used to estimate its sample complexity. Alternatively, we provide simulation methods to estimate sample complexity directly. For more details, see Carter, P & Choi, D (2024). "Learning from Noise: Applying Sample Complexity for Political Science Research" <doi:10.31219/osf.io/evrcj>.

This package provides conditional maximum likelihood (CML) item parameter estimation of both sequential and cumulative deterministic multistage designs (Zwitser & Maris, 2015, <doi:10.1007/s11336-013-9369-6>) and probabilistic sequential and cumulative multistage designs (Steinfeld & Robitzsch, 2024, <doi:10.1007/s41237-024-00228-3>). Supports CML item parameter estimation of conventional linear designs and additional functions for the likelihood ratio test (Andersen, 1973, <doi:10.1007/BF02291180>) as well as functions for simulating various types of multistage designs.

This package provides tools for the visualization of missing and/or imputed values are introduced, which can be used for exploring the data and the structure of the missing and/or imputed values. Depending on this structure of the missing values, the corresponding methods may help to identify the mechanism generating the missing values and explore the data including missing values. In addition, the quality of imputation can be visually explored using various univariate, bivariate, multiple and multivariate plot methods.

Extract and process bird sightings records from eBird (<http://ebird.org>), an online tool for recording bird observations.

Binding models which are useful when analysing protein-ligand interactions by techniques such as Biolayer Interferometry (BLI) or Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR). Naman B. Shah, Thomas M. Duncan (2014) <doi:10.3791/51383>. Hoang H. Nguyen et al. (2015) <doi:10.3390/s150510481>. After initial binding parameters are known, binding curves can be simulated and parameters can be varied.

This package implements the dynamic panel models described by Allison, Williams, and Moral-Benito (2017 <doi:10.1177/2378023117710578>) in R. This class of models uses structural equation modeling to specify dynamic (lagged dependent variable) models with fixed effects for panel data. Additionally, models may have predictors that are only weakly exogenous, i.e., are affected by prior values of the dependent variable. Options also allow for random effects, dropping the lagged dependent variable, and a number of other specification choices.

Perform robust inference based on applying Fast and Robust Bootstrap on robust estimators (Van Aelst and Willems (2013) <doi:10.18637/jss.v053.i03>). This method constitutes an alternative to ordinary bootstrap or asymptotic inference. procedures when using robust estimators such as S-, MM- or GS-estimators. The available methods are multivariate regression, principal component analysis and one-sample and two-sample Hotelling tests. It provides both the robust point estimates and uncertainty measures based on the fast and robust bootstrap.

This package contains the framework of the estimation, sampling, and hypotheses testing for two special distributions (Exponentiated Exponential-Pareto and Exponentiated Inverse Gamma-Pareto) within the family of Generalized Exponentiated Composite distributions.

This package provides a general and efficient tool for fitting a response surface to a dataset via Gaussian processes. The dataset can have multiple responses and be noisy (with stationary variance). The fitted GP model can predict the gradient as well. The package is based on the work of Bostanabad, R., Kearney, T., Tao, S. Y., Apley, D. W. & Chen, W. (2018) Leveraging the nugget parameter for efficient Gaussian process modeling. International Journal for Numerical Methods in Engineering, 114, 501-516.

Reproducible work requires a record of where every statistic originated. When writing reports, some data is too big to load in the same environment and some statistics take a while to compute. This package offers a way to keep notes on statistics, simple functions, and small objects. Notepads can be locked to avoid accidental updates. Notepads keep track of who added the notes and when the notes were added. A simple text representation is used to allow for clear version histories.

This package provides tools for cleaning, processing, and preparing microbiome sequencing data (e.g., 16S rRNA) for downstream analysis. Supports CSV, TXT, and Excel file formats. The main function, ezclean(), automates microbiome data transformation, including format validation, transposition, numeric conversion, and metadata integration. It also handles taxonomic levels efficiently, resolves duplicated taxa entries, and outputs a well-structured, analysis-ready dataset. The companion functions ezstat() run statistical tests and summarize results, while ezviz() produces publication-ready visualizations.

Node centrality measures for temporal networks. Available measures are temporal degree centrality, temporal closeness centrality and temporal betweenness centrality defined by Kim and Anderson (2012) <doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.85.026107>. Applying the REN algorithm by Hanke and Foraita (2017) <doi:10.1186/s12859-017-1677-x> when calculating the centrality measures keeps the computational running time linear in the number of graph snapshots. Further, all methods can run in parallel up to the number of nodes in the network.

This package contains a robust set of tools designed for constructing deep neural networks, which are highly adaptable with user-defined loss function and probability models. It includes several practical applications, such as the (deepAFT) model, which utilizes a deep neural network approach to enhance the accelerated failure time (AFT) model for survival data. Another example is the (deepGLM) model that applies deep neural network to the generalized linear model (glm), accommodating data types with continuous, categorical and Poisson distributions.

Runs a Shiny App in the local machine for basic statistical and graphical analyses. The point-and-click interface of Shiny App enables obtaining the same analysis outputs (e.g., plots and tables) more quickly, as compared with typing the required code in R, especially for users without much experience or expertise with coding. Examples of possible analyses include tabulating descriptive statistics for a variable, creating histograms by experimental groups, and creating a scatter plot and calculating the correlation between two variables.
