The use of structured elicitation to inform decision making has grown dramatically in recent decades, however, judgements from multiple experts must be aggregated into a single estimate. Empirical evidence suggests that mathematical aggregation provides more reliable estimates than enforcing behavioural consensus on group estimates. aggreCAT provides state-of-the-art mathematical aggregation methods for elicitation data including those defined in Hanea, A. et al. (2021) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0256919>. The package also provides functions to visualise and evaluate the performance of your aggregated estimates on validation data.

Adversarial random forests (ARFs) recursively partition data into fully factorized leaves, where features are jointly independent. The procedure is iterative, with alternating rounds of generation and discrimination. Data becomes increasingly realistic at each round, until original and synthetic samples can no longer be reliably distinguished. This is useful for several unsupervised learning tasks, such as density estimation and data synthesis. Methods for both are implemented in this package. ARFs naturally handle unstructured data with mixed continuous and categorical covariates. They inherit many of the benefits of random forests, including speed, flexibility, and solid performance with default parameters. For details, see Watson et al. (2023) <https://proceedings.mlr.press/v206/watson23a.html>.

This wrapper package for mgcv makes it easier to create high-performing Generalized Additive Models (GAMs). With its central function autogam(), by entering just a dataset and the name of the outcome column as inputs, AutoGAM tries to automate the procedure of configuring a highly accurate GAM which performs at reasonably high speed, even for large datasets.

Specifically, it implements a testing method based on the equivalence between the A statistic and the Wilcoxon statistic.

This package creates the optimal (D, U and I) designs for the accelerated life testing with right censoring or interval censoring. It uses generalized linear model (GLM) approach to derive the asymptotic variance-covariance matrix of regression coefficients. The failure time distribution is assumed to follow Weibull distribution with a known shape parameter and log-linear link functions are used to model the relationship between failure time parameters and stress variables. The acceleration model may have multiple stress factors, although most ALTs involve only two or less stress factors. ALTopt package also provides several plotting functions including contour plot, Fraction of Use Space (FUS) plot and Variance Dispersion graphs of Use Space (VDUS) plot. For more details, see Seo and Pan (2015) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2015-029>.

This package provides a collection of methods for both the rank-based estimates and least-square estimates to the Accelerated Failure Time (AFT) model. For rank-based estimation, it provides approaches that include the computationally efficient Gehan's weight and the general's weight such as the logrank weight. Details of the rank-based estimation can be found in Chiou et al. (2014) <doi:10.1007/s11222-013-9388-2> and Chiou et al. (2015) <doi:10.1002/sim.6415>. For the least-square estimation, the estimating equation is solved with generalized estimating equations (GEE). Moreover, in multivariate cases, the dependence working correlation structure can be specified in GEE's setting. Details on the least-squares estimation can be found in Chiou et al. (2014) <doi:10.1007/s10985-014-9292-x>.

This package implements the Age Band Decomposition (ABD) method for standardizing tree ring width data while preserving both low and high frequency variability. Unlike traditional detrending approaches that can distort long term growth trends, ABD decomposes ring width series into multiple age classes, detrends each class separately, and then recombines them to create standardized chronologies. This approach improves the detection of growth signals linked to past climatic and environmental factors, making it particularly valuable for dendroecological and dendroclimatological studies. The package provides functions to perform ABD-based standardization, compare results with other common methods (e.g., BAI, C method, RCS), and facilitate the interpretation of growth patterns under current and future climate variability.

Understanding morphological variation is an important task in many applications. Recent studies in computational biology have focused on developing computational tools for the task of sub-image selection which aims at identifying structural features that best describe the variation between classes of shapes. A major part in assessing the utility of these approaches is to demonstrate their performance on both simulated and real datasets. However, when creating a model for shape statistics, real data can be difficult to access and the sample sizes for these data are often small due to them being expensive to collect. Meanwhile, the landscape of current shape simulation methods has been mostly limited to approaches that use black-box inference---making it difficult to systematically assess the power and calibration of sub-image models. In this R package, we introduce the alpha-shape sampler: a probabilistic framework for simulating realistic 2D and 3D shapes based on probability distributions which can be learned from real data or explicitly stated by the user. The ashapesampler package supports two mechanisms for sampling shapes in two and three dimensions. The first, empirically sampling based on an existing data set, was highlighted in the original main text of the paper. The second, probabilistic sampling from a known distribution, is the computational implementation of the theory derived in that paper. Work based on Winn-Nunez et al. (2024) <doi:10.1101/2024.01.09.574919>.

This package provides a function that implements the acceptance-rejection method in an optimized manner to generate pseudo-random observations for discrete or continuous random variables. Proposed by von Neumann J. (1951), <https://mcnp.lanl.gov/pdf_files/>, the function is optimized to work in parallel on Unix-based operating systems and performs well on Windows systems. The acceptance-rejection method implemented optimizes the probability of generating observations from the desired random variable, by simply providing the probability function or probability density function, in the discrete and continuous cases, respectively. Implementation is based on references CASELLA, George at al. (2004) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/4356322>, NEAL, Radford M. (2003) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/3448413> and Bishop, Christopher M. (2006, ISBN: 978-0387310732).
