Allows researchers to conduct multivariate statistical analyses of survey data with list experiments. This survey methodology is also known as the item count technique or the unmatched count technique and is an alternative to the commonly used randomized response method. The package implements the methods developed by Imai (2011) <doi:10.1198/jasa.2011.ap10415>, Blair and Imai (2012) <doi:10.1093/pan/mpr048>, Blair, Imai, and Lyall (2013) <doi:10.1111/ajps.12086>, Imai, Park, and Greene (2014) <doi:10.1093/pan/mpu017>, Aronow, Coppock, Crawford, and Green (2015) <doi:10.1093/jssam/smu023>, Chou, Imai, and Rosenfeld (2017) <doi:10.1177/0049124117729711>, and Blair, Chou, and Imai (2018) <https://imai.fas.harvard.edu/research/files/listerror.pdf>. This includes a Bayesian MCMC implementation of regression for the standard and multiple sensitive item list experiment designs and a random effects setup, a Bayesian MCMC hierarchical regression model with up to three hierarchical groups, the combined list experiment and endorsement experiment regression model, a joint model of the list experiment that enables the analysis of the list experiment as a predictor in outcome regression models, a method for combining list experiments with direct questions, and methods for diagnosing and adjusting for response error. In addition, the package implements the statistical test that is designed to detect certain failures of list experiments, and a placebo test for the list experiment using data from direct questions.

This package provides a lightweight interface to the libcmaes C++ library for the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy (CMA-ES). CMA-ES is a state-of-the-art evolutionary algorithm for the optimization of difficult non-linear, non-convex black-box functions, as described in Hansen and Ostermeier (2001) <doi:10.1162/106365601750190398>. Supports the active, separable, and VD (diagonal plus rank-one covariance) variants of the algorithm as well as the IPOP (increasing population size) and BIPOP (bi-population) restart strategies. A patched copy of libcmaes (LGPL >= 3) is bundled; see the COPYRIGHTS file for details.

This package provides a function for classifying a landscape into different categories based on the Topographic Position Index (TPI) and slope. It offers two types of classifications: Slope Position Classification, and Landform Classification. The function internally calculates the TPI for the given landscape and then uses it along with the slope to perform the classification. Optionally, descriptive statistics for every class are calculated and plotted. The classifications are useful for identifying the position of a location on a slope and for identifying broader landform types.

This package implements Latent Unknown Clusters By Integrating Multi-omics Data (LUCID; Peng (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btz667>) for integrative clustering with exposures, multi-omics data, and health outcomes. Supports three integration strategies: early, parallel, and serial. Provides model fitting and tuning, lasso-type regularization for exposure and omics feature selection, handling of missing data, including both sporadic and complete-case patterns, prediction, and g-computation for estimating causal effects of exposures, bootstrap inference for uncertainty estimation, and S3 summary and plot methods. For the multi-omics integration framework, see Jia (2024) <https://journal.r-project.org/articles/RJ-2024-012/RJ-2024-012.pdf>. For the missing-data imputation mechanism, see Jia (2024) <doi:10.1093/bioadv/vbae123>.

Conducting Line transect-based one-dimensional nearest neighbor distance and conducting hypothesis testing related to local distributional aggregation pattern of species. The reason that such a package is needed is because traditional two-dimensional nearest neighbor distance is not applicable when biodiversity data are sampled via optimal ecological survey methods, like line transects. In comparison to the entire studied region, line transect-collected local biodiversity data are spatially constrained and sampling-limited. To this end, two-dimensional nearest neighbor distance would tend to over-estimate distributional aggregation pattern of species when using this limited biodiversity information. Accordingly, one-dimensional nearest neighbor distance is needed and the associated statistical testing should be established for analyzing line transect-derived biodiversity data.

This package provides functions and datasets for readers of the book "Le logiciel R: Maitriser le langage, Effectuer des analyses statistiques" by Lafaye de Micheaux, Drouilhet and Liquet (2011) <doi:10.1007/978-2-8178-0115-5>. The documentation and help pages are written in French.

This package provides tools to retrieve and summarize taxonomic information and synonymy data for reptile species using data scraped from The Reptile Database website (<https://reptile-database.reptarium.cz/>). Outputs include clean and structured data frames useful for ecological, evolutionary, and conservation research.

This package implements a logistic Box-Cox model that adds a shape parameter to a routine logistic regression model to flexibly estimate the shape and strength of the relationship between a binary outcome and a continuous predictor, adjusting for covariates and survey weights. This model is fully described in Xing, L. et al. (2021) <doi:10.1002/cjs.11587>. This version extends the original lboxcox package (1.1) with numerically stabilized likelihood/gradient calculations, vectorized data preprocessing, and a bootstrap-ensemble estimator.

Given independent and identically distributed observations X(1), ..., X(n), compute the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of a density as well as a smoothed version of it under the assumption that the density is log-concave, see Rufibach (2007) and Duembgen and Rufibach (2009). The main function of the package is logConDens that allows computation of the log-concave MLE and its smoothed version. In addition, we provide functions to compute (1) the value of the density and distribution function estimates (MLE and smoothed) at a given point (2) the characterizing functions of the estimator, (3) to sample from the estimated distribution, (5) to compute a two-sample permutation test based on log-concave densities, (6) the ROC curve based on log-concave estimates within cases and controls, including confidence intervals for given values of false positive fractions (7) computation of a confidence interval for the value of the true density at a fixed point. Finally, three datasets that have been used to illustrate log-concave density estimation are made available.

Implementation of the three-step approach of (latent transition) cognitive diagnosis model (CDM) with covariates. This approach can be used for single time-point situations (cross-sectional data) and multiple time-point situations (longitudinal data) to investigate how the covariates are associated with attribute mastery. For multiple time-point situations, the three-step approach of latent transition CDM with covariates allows researchers to assess changes in attribute mastery status and to evaluate the covariate effects on both the initial states and transition probabilities over time using latent logistic regression. Because stepwise approaches often yield biased estimates, correction for classification error probabilities (CEPs) is considered in this approach. The three-step approach for latent transition CDM with covariates involves the following steps: (1) fitting a CDM to the response data without covariates at each time point separately, (2) assigning examinees to latent states at each time point and computing the associated CEPs, and (3) estimating the latent transition CDM with the known CEPs and computing the regression coefficients. The method was proposed in Liang et al. (2023) <doi:10.3102/10769986231163320> and demonstrated using mental health data in Liang et al. (in press; annotated R code and data utilized in this example are available in Mendeley data) <doi:10.17632/kpjp3gnwbt.1>.

Tests whether the linear hypothesis of a model is correct specified using Dominguez-Lobato test. Also Ramsey's RESET (Regression Equation Specification Error Test) test is implemented and Wald tests can be carried out. Although RESET test is widely used to test the linear hypothesis of a model, Dominguez and Lobato (2019) proposed a novel approach that generalizes well known specification tests such as Ramsey's. This test relies on wild-bootstrap; this package implements this approach to be usable with any function that fits linear models and is compatible with the update() function such as stats'::lm(), lfe'::felm() and forecast'::Arima(), for ARMA (autoregressiveâ moving-average) models. Also the package can handle custom statistics such as Cramer von Mises and Kolmogorov Smirnov, described by the authors, and custom distributions such as Mammen (discrete and continuous) and Rademacher.

Each function replaces multiple standard R functions. For example, two function calls, Read() and CountAll(), generate summary statistics for all variables in the data frame, plus histograms and bar charts. Other functions provide data aggregation via pivot tables; comprehensive regression, ANOVA, and t-test; visualizations including integrated Violin/Box/Scatter plot for a numerical variable, bar chart, histogram, box plot, density curves, calibrated power curve; reading multiple data formats with the same call; variable labels; time series with aggregation and forecasting; color themes; and Trellis (facet) graphics. Also includes a confirmatory factor analysis of multiple-indicator measurement models, pedagogical routines for data simulation (e.g., Central Limit Theorem), generation and rendering of regression instructions for interpretative output, and both interactive construction of visualizations and interactive visualizations with plotly.

One interface to many large language model providers: a single configuration object and a single calling function serve chat and embedding models alike, so research code does not change when the provider does. The same calls scale to multi-model and multi-condition studies.

We developed an approach to detect differential expression features in long non-coding RNA low counts, using generalized linear model with zero-inflated exponential quasi likelihood ratio test. Methods implemented in this package are described in Li (2019) <doi:10.1186/s12864-019-5926-4>.

Implementation of a theoretically supported alternative to k-nearest neighbors for functional data to solve problems of estimating unobserved segments of a partially observed functional data sample, functional classification and outlier detection. The approximating neighbor curves are piecewise functions built from a functional sample. Instead of a distance on a function space we use a locally defined distance function that satisfies stabilization criteria. The package allows the implementation of the methodology and the replication of the results in Elà as, A., Jiménez, R. and Yukich, J. (2020) <arXiv:2007.16059>.

This package provides a single analysis path that includes distance-based ordination, global tests of any effect of the microbiome, and tests of the effects of individual taxa with false-discovery-rate (FDR) control. It accommodates both continuous and discrete covariates as well as interaction terms to be tested either singly or in combination, allows for adjustment of confounding covariates, and uses permutation-based p-values that can control for sample correlations. It can be applied to transformed data, and an omnibus test can combine results from analyses conducted on different transformation scales. It can also be used for testing presence-absence associations based on infinite number of rarefaction replicates, testing mediation effects of the microbiome, analyzing censored time-to-event outcomes, and for compositional analysis by fitting linear models to centered-log-ratio taxa count data.
