This package implements importance sampling from the truncated multivariate normal using the Geweke-Hajivassiliou-Keane (GHK) simulator. Unlike Gibbs sampling which can get stuck in one truncation sub-region depending on initial values, this package allows truncation based on disjoint regions that are created by truncation of absolute values. The GHK algorithm uses simple Cholesky transformation followed by recursive simulation of univariate truncated normals hence there are also no convergence issues. Importance sample is returned along with sampling weights, based on which, one can calculate integrals over truncated regions for multivariate normals.

This package provides functions for training an optimal decision tree classifier, making predictions and generating latex code for plotting. Works for two-class and multi-class classification problems. The algorithm seeks the optimal Boolean rule consisting of multiple variables to split a node, resulting in shorter trees. Use bsnsing() to build a tree, predict() to make predictions and plot() to plot the tree into latex and PDF. See Yanchao Liu (2022) <arXiv:2205.15263> for technical details. Source code and more data sets are at <https://github.com/profyliu/bsnsing/>.

This package provides a practical tool for estimating the burden of common communicable diseases in settlements of displaced populations. An online version of the tool can be found at <http://who-refugee-bod.ecdf.ed.ac.uk/shiny/app/>. Estimates of burden of disease aim to synthesize data about cause-specific morbidity and mortality through a systematic approach that enables evidence-based decisions and comparisons across settings. The focus of this tool is on four acute communicable diseases and syndromes, including Acute respiratory infections, Acute diarrheal diseases, Acute jaundice syndrome and Acute febrile illnesses.

We propose to determine the correction of the significance level after multiple coding of an explanatory variable in Generalized Linear Model. The different methods of correction of the p-value are the Single step Bonferroni procedure, and resampling based methods developed by P.H.Westfall in 1993. Resampling methods are based on the permutation and the parametric bootstrap procedure. If some continuous, and dichotomous transformations are performed this package offers an exact correction of the p-value developed by B.Liquet & D.Commenges in 2005. The naive method with no correction is also available.

Demonstration code showing how (univariate) kernel density estimates are computed, at least conceptually, and allowing users to experiment with different kernels, should they so wish. The method used follows directly the definition, but gains efficiency by replacing the observations by frequencies in a very fine grid covering the sample range. A canonical reference is B. W. Silverman, (1998) <doi: 10.1201/9781315140919>. NOTE: the density function in the stats package uses a more sophisticated method based on the fast Fourier transform and that function should be used if computational efficiency is a prime consideration.

Find, visualize and explore patterns of differential taxa in vegetation data (namely in a phytosociological table), using the Differential Value (DiffVal). Patterns are searched through mathematical optimization algorithms. Ultimately, Total Differential Value (TDV) optimization aims at obtaining classifications of vegetation data based on differential taxa, as in the traditional geobotanical approach. The Gurobi optimizer, as well as the R package gurobi', can be installed from <https://www.gurobi.com/products/gurobi-optimizer/>. The useful vignette Gurobi Installation Guide, from package prioritizr', can be found here: <https://prioritizr.net/articles/gurobi_installation_guide.html>.

Read and write PNG images with arrays, rasters, native rasters, numeric arrays, integer arrays, raw vectors and indexed values. This PNG encoder exposes configurable internal options enabling the user to select a speed-size tradeoff. For example, disabling compression can speed up writing PNG by a factor of 50. Multiple image formats are supported including raster, native rasters, and integer and numeric arrays at color depths of 1, 2, 3 or 4. 16-bit images are also supported. This implementation uses the libspng C library which is available from <https://github.com/randy408/libspng/>.

Readable, complete and pretty graphs for correspondence analysis made with FactoMineR'. They can be rendered as interactive HTML plots, showing useful informations at mouse hover. The interest is not mainly visual but statistical: it helps the reader to keep in mind the data contained in the cross-table or Burt table while reading the correspondence analysis, thus preventing over-interpretation. Most graphs are made with ggplot2', which means that you can use the + syntax to manually add as many graphical pieces you want, or change theme elements. 3D graphs are made with plotly'.

This package provides a set of tools to i) identify geographic areas with significant change over time in drug utilization, and ii) characterize common change over time patterns among the time series for multiple geographic areas. For reference, see below: 1. Song, J., Carey, M., Zhu, H., Miao, H., Ram´ırez, J. C., & Wu, H. (2018) <doi:10.1504/IJCBDD.2018.10011910> 2. Wu, S., Wu, H. (2013) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-14-6> 3.

Four datasets are provided here from the Intendo game Super Jetroid'. It is data from the 2015 year of operation and it comprises a revenue table ('all_revenue'), a daily users table ('users_daily'), a user summary table ('user_summary'), and a table with data on all user sessions ('all_sessions'). These core datasets come in different sizes, and, each of them has a variant that was intentionally made faulty (totally riddled with errors and inconsistencies). This suite of tables is useful for testing with packages that focus on data validation and data documentation.

Allows the user to map multilingual free-text of occupations to a broad range of standardized classifications. The package facilitates automatic occupation coding (see, e.g., Gweon et al. (2017) <doi:10.1515/jos-2017-0006> and Turrell et al. (2019) <doi:10.3386/w25837>), where the ISCO to ESCO mapping is exploited to extend the occupations hierarchy, Le Vrang et al. (2014) <doi:10.1109/mc.2014.283>. Document vectorization is performed using the multilingual ESCO corpus. A method based on the nearest neighbor search is used to suggest the closest ISCO occupation.

Mass measurement corrections and uncertainties using calibration data, as recommended by EURAMET's guideline No. 18 (2015) ISBN:978-3-942992-40-4 . The package provides classes, functions, and methods for storing information contained in calibration certificates and converting balance readings to both conventional mass and real mass. For the latter, the Magnitude of the Air Buoyancy Correction factor employs models (such as the CIMP-2007 formula revised by Picard, Davis, Gläser, and Fujii (2008) <doi:10.1088/0026-1394/45/2/004>) to estimate the local air density using measured environmental conditions.

An implementation of the alternating expectation conditional maximization (AECM) algorithm for matrix-variate variance gamma (MVVG) and normal-inverse Gaussian (MVNIG) linear models. These models are designed for settings of multivariate analysis with clustered non-uniform observations and correlated responses. The package includes fitting and prediction functions for both models, and an example dataset from a periodontal on Gullah-speaking African Americans, with responses in gaad_res, and covariates in gaad_cov. For more details on the matrix-variate distributions used, see Gallaugher & McNicholas (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.spl.2018.08.012>.

This package provides a unified and user-friendly framework for applying the principal sufficient dimension reduction methods for both linear and nonlinear cases. The package has an extendable power by varying loss functions for the support vector machine, even for an user-defined arbitrary function, unless those are convex and differentiable everywhere over the support (Li et al. (2011) <doi:10.1214/11-AOS932>). Also, it provides a real-time sufficient dimension reduction update procedure using the principal least squares support vector machine (Artemiou et al. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.patcog.2020.107768>).

This package provides a collection of (wrapper) functions the creator found useful for quickly placing data summaries and formatted regression results into .Rnw or .Rmd files. Functions for generating commonly used graphics, such as receiver operating curves or Bland-Altman plots, are also provided by qwraps2'. qwraps2 is a updated version of a package qwraps'. The original version qwraps was never submitted to CRAN but can be found at <https://github.com/dewittpe/qwraps/>. The implementation and limited scope of the functions within qwraps2 <https://github.com/dewittpe/qwraps2/> is fundamentally different from qwraps'.

This package provides functions and methods for estimating phenological dates (green up, start of a season, maturity, senescence, end of a season and dormancy) from (nearly) periodic Earth Observation time series. These dates are critical points of some derivatives of an idealized curve which, in turn, is obtained through a functional principal component analysis-based regression model. Some of the methods implemented here are based on T. Krivobokova, P. Serra and F. Rosales (2022) <https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0167947322000998>. Methods for handling and plotting Earth observation time series are also provided.

Set of tools for peak filtering of mass spectrometry imaging data based on spatial distribution of signal. Given a region-of-interest, representing the spatial region where the informative signal is expected to be localized, a series of filters determine which peak signals are characterized by an implausible spatial distribution. The filters reduce the dataset dimension and increase its information vs noise ratio, improving the quality of the unsupervised analysis results, reducing data dimension and simplifying the chemical interpretation. The methods are described in Inglese P. et al (2019) <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/bty622>.

The strided iterator adapts multidimensional buffers to work with the C++ standard library and range-based for-loops. Given a pointer or iterator into a multidimensional data buffer, one can generate an iterator range using make_strided to construct strided versions of the standard library's begin and end. For constructing range-based for-loops, a strided_range class is provided. These help authors to avoid integer-based indexing, which in some cases can impede algorithm performance and introduce indexing errors. This library exists primarily to expose the header file to other R projects.
