Lite interface for finding locations of addresses or businesses around the world using the ArcGIS REST API service <https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/geocode/api-reference/overview-world-geocoding-service.htm>.

Create aliases for other R names or arbitrarily complex R expressions. Accessing the alias acts as-if the aliased expression were invoked instead, and continuously reflects the current value of that expression: updates to the original expression will be reflected in the alias; and updates to the alias will automatically be reflected in the original expression.

Visualisation of multidimensional data through different Andrews curves: Andrews, D. F. (1972) Plots of High-Dimensional Data. Biometrics, 28(1), 125-136. <doi:10.2307/2528964>.

Dynamic regression for time series using Extreme Gradient Boosting with hyper-parameter tuning via Bayesian Optimization or Random Search.

Randomly splits data into testing and training sets. Then, uses stepwise selection to fit numerous multiple regression models on the training data, and tests them on the test data. Returned for each model are plots comparing model Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Pearson correlation coefficient (r) between the predicted and actual values, Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and R-Squared among the models. Each model is ranked relative to the other models by the model evaluation metrics (i.e., AIC, r, MAE, and R-Squared) and the model with the best mean ranking among the model evaluation metrics is returned. Model evaluation metric weights for AIC, r, MAE, and R-Squared are taken in as arguments as aic_wt, r_wt, mae_wt, and r_squ_wt, respectively. They are equally weighted as default but may be adjusted relative to each other if the user prefers one or more metrics to the others, Field, A. (2013, ISBN:978-1-4462-4918-5).

This package implements several new association indices that can control for various types of errors. Also includes existing association indices and functions for simulating the effects of different rates of error on estimates of association strength between individuals using each method.

Given the parameters of a distribution, the package uses the concept of alpha-outliers by Davies and Gather (1993) to flag outliers in a data set. See Davies, L.; Gather, U. (1993): The identification of multiple outliers, JASA, 88 423, 782-792, <doi:10.1080/01621459.1993.10476339> for details.

An implementation of ADPclust clustering procedures (Fast Clustering Using Adaptive Density Peak Detection). The work is built and improved upon the idea of Rodriguez and Laio (2014)<DOI:10.1126/science.1242072>. ADPclust clusters data by finding density peaks in a density-distance plot generated from local multivariate Gaussian density estimation. It includes an automatic centroids selection and parameter optimization algorithm, which finds the number of clusters and cluster centroids by comparing average silhouettes on a grid of testing clustering results; It also includes a user interactive algorithm that allows the user to manually selects cluster centroids from a two dimensional "density-distance plot". Here is the research article associated with this package: "Wang, Xiao-Feng, and Yifan Xu (2015)<DOI:10.1177/0962280215609948> Fast clustering using adaptive density peak detection."

It can sometimes be difficult to ascertain when some events (such as property crime) occur because the victim is not present when the crime happens. As a result, police databases often record a start (or from') date and time, and an end (or to') date and time. The time span between these date/times can be minutes, hours, or sometimes days, hence the term Aoristic'. Aoristic is one of the past tenses in Greek and represents an uncertain occurrence in time. For events with a location describes with either a latitude/longitude, or X,Y coordinate pair, and a start and end date/time, this package generates an aoristic data frame with aoristic weighted probability values for each hour of the week, for each observation. The coordinates are not necessary for the program to calculate aoristic weights; however, they are part of this package because a spatial component has been integral to aoristic analysis from the start. Dummy coordinates can be introduced if the user only has temporal data. Outputs include an aoristic data frame, as well as summary graphs and displays. For more information see: Ratcliffe, JH (2002) Aoristic signatures and the temporal analysis of high volume crime patterns, Journal of Quantitative Criminology. 18 (1): 23-43. Note: This package replaces an original aoristic package (version 0.6) by George Kikuchi that has been discontinued with his permission.

This package provides functions to conduct title and abstract screening in systematic reviews using large language models, such as the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) models from OpenAI <https://platform.openai.com/>. These functions can enhance the quality of title and abstract screenings while reducing the total screening time significantly. In addition, the package includes tools for quality assessment of title and abstract screenings, as described in Vembye, Christensen, Mølgaard, and Schytt (2025) <DOI:10.1037/met0000769>.

This package provides functions to estimate and interpret the alpha-NOMINATE ideal point model developed in Carroll et al. (2013, <doi:10.1111/ajps.12029>). alpha-NOMINATE extends traditional spatial voting frameworks by allowing for a mixture of Gaussian and quadratic utility functions, providing flexibility in modeling political actors preferences. The package uses Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for parameter estimation, supporting robust inference about individuals ideological positions and the shape of their utility functions. It also contains functions to simulate data from the model and to calculate the probability of a vote passing given the ideal points of the legislators/voters and the estimated location of the choice alternatives.

R Interface to AutoKeras <https://autokeras.com/>. AutoKeras is an open source software library for Automated Machine Learning (AutoML). The ultimate goal of AutoML is to provide easily accessible deep learning tools to domain experts with limited data science or machine learning background. AutoKeras provides functions to automatically search for architecture and hyperparameters of deep learning models.
