This package provides a set of functions for taking qualitative GIS data, hand drawn on a map, and converting it to a simple features object. These tools are focused on data that are drawn on a map that contains some type of polygon features. For each area identified on the map, the id numbers of these polygons can be entered as vectors and transformed using qualmap.

This package provides a flexible moving average algorithm for modeling drug exposure in pharmacoepidemiology studies as presented in the article: Ouchi, D., Giner-Soriano, M., Gómez-Lumbreras, A., Vedia Urgell, C.,Torres, F., & Morros, R. (2022). "Automatic Estimation of the Most Likely Drug Combination in Electronic Health Records Using the Smooth Algorithm : Development and Validation Study." JMIR medical informatics, 10(11), e37976. <doi:10.2196/37976>.

This package performs two-sample comparisons using the restricted mean survival time (RMST) as a summary measure of the survival time distribution. Three kinds of between-group contrast metrics (i.e., the difference in RMST, the ratio of RMST and the ratio of the restricted mean time lost (RMTL)) are computed. It performs an ANCOVA-type covariate adjustment as well as unadjusted analyses for those measures.

It allows to quickly perform permutation-based closed testing by sum-based global tests, and construct lower confidence bounds for the TDP, simultaneously over all subsets of hypotheses. As a main feature, it produces simultaneous lower confidence bounds for the proportion of active voxels in different clusters for fMRI cluster analysis. Details may be found in Vesely, Finos, and Goeman (2020) <arXiv:2102.11759>.

Decompose a time series into seasonal, trend, and remainder components using an implementation of Seasonal Decomposition of Time Series by Loess (STL) that provides several enhancements over the STL method in the stats package. These enhancements include handling missing values, providing higher order (quadratic) loess smoothing with automated parameter choices, frequency component smoothing beyond the seasonal and trend components, and some basic plot methods for diagnostics.

This package contains an R Markdown template for a clinical trial protocol adhering to the SPIRIT statement. The SPIRIT (Standard Protocol Items for Interventional Trials) statement outlines recommendations for a minimum set of elements to be addressed in a clinical trial protocol. Also contains functions to create a xml document from the template and upload it to clinicaltrials.gov<https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/> for trial registration.

For each string in a set of strings, determine a unique tag that is a substring of fixed size k unique to that string, if it has one. If no such unique substring exists, the least frequent substring is used. If multiple unique substrings exist, the lexicographically smallest substring is used. This lexicographically smallest substring of size k is called the "UniqTag" of that string.

Comparison of variance - covariance patterns using relative principal component analysis (relative eigenanalysis), as described in Le Maitre and Mitteroecker (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13253>. Also provides functions to compute group covariance matrices, distance matrices, and perform proportionality tests. A worked sample on the body shape of cichlid fishes is included, based on the dataset from Kerschbaumer et al. (2013) <doi:10.5061/dryad.fc02f>.

This package provides functions for phylocom integration, community analyses, null-models, traits and evolution. It implements numerous ecophylogenetic approaches including measures of community phylogenetic and trait diversity, phylogenetic signal, estimation of trait values for unobserved taxa, null models for community and phylogeny randomizations, and utility functions for data input/output and phylogeny plotting. A full description of package functionality and methods are provided by Kembel et al. (2010).

The Stud Ruby library adds a few things missing from the standard Ruby library such as:

Stud::Try

Retry on failure, with back-off, where failure is any exception.

Stud::Pool

Generic resource pools.

Stud::Task

Tasks (threads that can return values, exceptions, etc.)

Stud.interval

Interval execution (do X every N seconds).

Stud::Buffer

Batch and flush behavior.

Bond can autocomplete argument(s) to methods, uniquely completing per module, per method and per argument. Bond provides a configuration system and a DSL for creating custom completions and completion rules. Bond can also load completions that ship with gems. Bond is able to offer more than irb's completion since it uses the full line of input when completing as opposed to irb's last-word approach.

This package provides methods for the nalysis of data from clinical proteomic profiling studies. The focus is on the studies of human subjects, which are often observational case-control by design and have technical replicates. A method for sample size determination for planning these studies is proposed. It incorporates routines for adjusting for the expected heterogeneities and imbalances in the data and the within-sample replicate correlations.

Model adsorption behavior using classical isotherms, including Langmuir, Freundlich, Brunauerâ Emmettâ Teller (BET), and Temkin models. The package supports parameter estimation through both linearized and non-linear fitting techniques and generates high-quality plots for model diagnostics. It is intended for environmental scientists, chemists, and researchers working on adsorption phenomena in soils, water treatment, and material sciences. Functions are compatible with base R and ggplot2 for visualization.

Make some distributions from the C++ library Boost available in R'. In addition, the normal-inverse Gaussian distribution and the generalized inverse Gaussian distribution are provided. The distributions are represented by R6 classes. The method to sample from the generalized inverse Gaussian distribution is the one given in "Random variate generation for the generalized inverse Gaussian distribution" Luc Devroye (2012) <doi:10.1007/s11222-012-9367-z>.

Account for uncertainty when working with ranks. Estimate standard errors consistently in linear regression with ranked variables. Construct confidence sets of various kinds for positions of populations in a ranking based on values of a certain feature and their estimation errors. Theory based on Mogstad, Romano, Shaikh, and Wilhelm (2023)<doi:10.1093/restud/rdad006> and Chetverikov and Wilhelm (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2310.15512>.

Designed to streamline integration with state-of-the-art LLM services across multiple platforms.

This package provides functions to append confidence intervals, prediction intervals, and other quantities of interest to data frames. All appended quantities are for the response variable, after conditioning on the model and covariates. This package has a data frame first syntax that allows for easy piping. Currently supported models include (log-) linear, (log-) linear mixed, generalized linear models, generalized linear mixed models, and accelerated failure time models.

This package provides a function to assess and test for heterogeneity in the utility of a surrogate marker with respect to a baseline covariate. The main function can be used for either a continuous or discrete baseline covariate. More details will be available in the future in: Parast, L., Cai, T., Tian L (2021).

In some cases you will have data in a histogram format, where you have a vector of all possible observations, and a vector of how many times each observation appeared. You could expand this into a single 1D vector, but this may not be advisable if the counts are extremely large. HistDat allows for the calculation of summary statistics without the need for expanding your data.

Fit a predictive model using iteratively reweighted boosting (IRBoost) to minimize robust loss functions within the CC-family (concave-convex). This constitutes an application of iteratively reweighted convex optimization (IRCO), where convex optimization is performed using the functional descent boosting algorithm. IRBoost assigns weights to facilitate outlier identification. Applications include robust generalized linear models and robust accelerated failure time models. Wang (2025) <doi:10.6339/24-JDS1138>.
