Carry out Bayesian estimation and forecasting for a variety of stochastic mortality models using vague prior distributions. Models supported include numerous well-established approaches introduced in the actuarial and demographic literature, such as the Lee-Carter (1992) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1992.10475265>, the Cairns-Blake-Dowd (2009) <doi:10.1080/10920277.2009.10597538>, the Li-Lee (2005) <doi:10.1353/dem.2005.0021>, and the Plat (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2009.08.006> models. The package is designed to analyse stratified mortality data structured as a 3-dimensional array of dimensions p à A à T (strata à age à year). Stratification can represent factors such as cause of death, country, deprivation level, sex, geographic region, insurance product, marital status, socioeconomic group, or smoking behavior. While the primary focus is on analysing stratified data (p > 1), the package can also handle mortality data that are not stratified (p = 1). Model selection via the Deviance Information Criterion (DIC) is supported.

Includes functions to estimate production frontiers and make ideal output predictions in the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) context using both standard models from DEA and Free Disposal Hull (FDH) and boosting techniques. In particular, EATBoosting (Guillen et al., 2023 <doi:10.1016/j.eswa.2022.119134>) and MARSBoosting. Moreover, the package includes code for estimating several technical efficiency measures using different models such as the input and output-oriented radial measures, the input and output-oriented Russell measures, the Directional Distance Function (DDF), the Weighted Additive Measure (WAM) and the Slacks-Based Measure (SBM).

This package provides a Bayesian model for examining the association between environmental mixtures and all Taxa measured in a hierarchical microbiome dataset in a single integrated analysis. Compared with analyzing the associations of environmental mixtures with each Taxa individually, BaHZING controls Type 1 error rates and provides more stable effect estimates when dealing with small sample sizes.

Implementation of the record linkage methodology proposed by Sadinle (2017) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2016.1148612>. It handles the bipartite record linkage problem, where two duplicate-free datafiles are to be merged.

At the Swiss Federal Statistical Office (SFSO), spatial maps of Switzerland are available free of charge as Cartographic bases for small-scale thematic mapping'. This package contains convenience functions to import ESRI (Environmental Systems Research Institute) shape files using the package sf and to plot them easily and quickly without having to worry too much about the technical details. It contains utilities to combine multiple areas to one single polygon and to find neighbours for single regions. For any point on a map, a special locator can be used to determine to which municipality, district or canton it belongs.

This package provides a collection of R functions were implemented from published and available analytic solutions for the One-Dimensional Boussinesq Equation (ground-water). In particular, the function "beq.lin()" is the analytic solution of the linearized form of Boussinesq Equation between two different head-based boundary (Dirichlet) conditions; "beq.song" is the non-linear power-series analytic solution of the motion of a wetting front over a dry bedrock (Song at al, 2007, see complete reference on function documentation). Bugs/comments/questions/collaboration of any kind are warmly welcomed.

This package implements the Block-wise Rank in Similarity Graph Edge-count test (BRISE), a rank-based two-sample test designed for block-wise missing data. The method constructs (pattern) pair-wise similarity graphs and derives quadratic test statistics with asymptotic chi-square distribution or permutation-based p-values. It provides both vectorized and congregated versions for flexible inference. The methodology is described in Zhang, Liang, Maile, and Zhou (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2508.17411>.

Arrays of structured data types can require large volumes of disk space to store. Blosc is a library that provides a fast and efficient way to compress such data. It is often applied in storage of n-dimensional arrays, such as in the case of the geo-spatial zarr file format. This package can be used to compress and decompress data using Blosc'.

It makes the creation of networks from sequences of RNA, with this is done the abstraction of characteristics of these networks with a methodology of maximum entropy for the purpose of making a classification between the classes of the sequences. There are two data present in the BASiNET package, "mRNA", and "ncRNA" with 10 sequences. These sequences were taken from the data set used in the article (LI, Aimin; ZHANG, Junying; ZHOU, Zhongyin, 2014) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-15-311>, these sequences are used to run examples.

Regression for data too large to fit in memory. This package functions exactly like the biglm package, but works with later versions of R.

The kernelSmoothing() function allows you to square and smooth geolocated data. It calculates a classical kernel smoothing (conservative) or a geographically weighted median. There are four major call modes of the function. The first call mode is kernelSmoothing(obs, epsg, cellsize, bandwidth) for a classical kernel smoothing and automatic grid. The second call mode is kernelSmoothing(obs, epsg, cellsize, bandwidth, quantiles) for a geographically weighted median and automatic grid. The third call mode is kernelSmoothing(obs, epsg, cellsize, bandwidth, centroids) for a classical kernel smoothing and user grid. The fourth call mode is kernelSmoothing(obs, epsg, cellsize, bandwidth, quantiles, centroids) for a geographically weighted median and user grid.
