Offers a suite of functions for converting to and from (atomic) vectors, matrices, data.frames, and (3D+) arrays as well as lists of these objects. It is an alternative to the base R as.<str>.<method>() functions (e.g., as.data.frame.array()) that provides more useful and/or flexible restructuring of R objects. To do so, it only works with common structuring of R objects (e.g., data.frames with only atomic vector columns).

This package provides functions to model and forecast crop yields using a spatial temporal conditional copula approach. The package incorporates extreme weather covariates and Bayesian Structural Time Series models to analyze crop yield dependencies across multiple regions. Includes tools for fitting, simulating, and visualizing results. This method build upon established R packages, including Hofert et al'. (2025) <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.copula>, Scott (2024) <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.bsts>, and Stephenson et al'. (2024) <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.evd>.

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.

This package provides functions for stabilometric signal quantification. The input is a data frame containing the x, y coordinates of the center-of-pressure displacement.

StabMap performs single cell mosaic data integration by first building a mosaic data topology, and for each reference dataset, traverses the topology to project and predict data onto a common embedding. Mosaic data should be provided in a list format, with all relevant features included in the data matrices within each list object. The output of stabMap is a joint low-dimensional embedding taking into account all available relevant features. Expression imputation can also be performed using the StabMap embedding and any of the original data matrices for given reference and query cell lists.

The package provides four lattice time series plots to render the time series data in a manner similar to the bank's own presentation.

An introduction to a couple of novel predictive variable selection methods for generalised boosted regression modeling (gbm). They are based on various variable influence methods (i.e., relative variable influence (RVI) and knowledge informed RVI (i.e., KIRVI, and KIRVI2)) that adopted similar ideas as AVI, KIAVI and KIAVI2 in the steprf package, and also based on predictive accuracy in stepwise algorithms. For details of the variable selection methods, please see: Li, J., Siwabessy, J., Huang, Z. and Nichol, S. (2019) <doi:10.3390/geosciences9040180>. Li, J., Alvarez, B., Siwabessy, J., Tran, M., Huang, Z., Przeslawski, R., Radke, L., Howard, F., Nichol, S. (2017). <DOI: 10.13140/RG.2.2.27686.22085>.

Stepwise regression is a statistical technique used for model selection. This package streamlines stepwise regression analysis by supporting multiple regression types, incorporating popular selection strategies, and offering essential metrics. It enables users to apply multiple selection strategies and metrics in a single function call, visualize variable selection processes, and export results in various formats. However, StepReg should not be used for statistical inference unless the variable selection process is explicitly accounted for, as it can compromise the validity of the results. This limitation does not apply when StepReg is used for prediction purposes. We validated StepReg's accuracy using public datasets within the SAS software environment. Additionally, StepReg features an interactive Shiny application to enhance usability and accessibility.

Generates artificial point patterns marked by their spatial and temporal signatures. The resulting point cloud may exhibit inherent interactions between both signatures. The simulation integrates microsimulation (Holm, E., (2017)<doi:10.1002/9781118786352.wbieg0320>) and agent-based models (Bonabeau, E., (2002)<doi:10.1073/pnas.082080899>), beginning with the configuration of movement characteristics for the specified agents (referred to as walkers') and their interactions within the simulation environment. These interactions (Quaglietta, L. and Porto, M., (2019)<doi:10.1186/s40462-019-0154-8>) result in specific spatiotemporal patterns that can be visualized, analyzed, and used for various analytical purposes. Given the growing scarcity of detailed spatiotemporal data across many domains, this package provides an alternative data source for applications in social and life sciences.

Implementations of stochastic, limited-memory quasi-Newton optimizers, similar in spirit to the LBFGS (Limited-memory Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno) algorithm, for smooth stochastic optimization. Implements the following methods: oLBFGS (online LBFGS) (Schraudolph, N.N., Yu, J. and Guenter, S., 2007 <http://proceedings.mlr.press/v2/schraudolph07a.html>), SQN (stochastic quasi-Newton) (Byrd, R.H., Hansen, S.L., Nocedal, J. and Singer, Y., 2016 <arXiv:1401.7020>), adaQN (adaptive quasi-Newton) (Keskar, N.S., Berahas, A.S., 2016, <arXiv:1511.01169>). Provides functions for easily creating R objects with partial_fit/predict methods from some given objective/gradient/predict functions. Includes an example stochastic logistic regression using these optimizers. Provides header files and registered C routines for using it directly from C/C++.

English is the native language for only 5% of the World population. Also, only 17% of us can understand this text. Moreover, the Latin alphabet is the main one for merely 36% of the total. The early computer era, now a very long time ago, was dominated by the US. Due to the proliferation of the internet, smartphones, social media, and other technologies and communication platforms, this is no longer the case. This package replaces base R string functions (such as grep(), tolower(), sprintf(), and strptime()) with ones that fully support the Unicode standards related to natural language and date-time processing. It also fixes some long-standing inconsistencies, and introduces some new, useful features. Thanks to ICU (International Components for Unicode) and stringi', they are fast, reliable, and portable across different platforms.

It is a hybrid spatial model that combines the variable selection capabilities of stepwise regression methods with the predictive power of the Geographically Weighted Regression(GWR) model.The developed hybrid model follows a two-step approach where the stepwise variable selection method is applied first to identify the subset of predictors that have the most significant impact on the response variable, and then a GWR model is fitted using those selected variables for spatial prediction at test or unknown locations. For method details,see Leung, Y., Mei, C. L. and Zhang, W. X. (2000).<DOI:10.1068/a3162>.This hybrid spatial model aims to improve the accuracy and interpretability of GWR predictions by selecting a subset of relevant variables through a stepwise selection process.This approach is particularly useful for modeling spatially varying relationships and improving the accuracy of spatial predictions.

This package provides tools to help download, process and analyse the UK road collision data collected using the STATS19 form. The datasets are provided as CSV files with detailed road safety information about the circumstances of car crashes and other incidents on the roads resulting in casualties in Great Britain from 1979 to present. Tables are available on colissions with the circumstances (e.g. speed limit of road), information about vehicles involved (e.g. type of vehicle), and casualties (e.g. age). The statistics relate only to events on public roads that were reported to the police, and subsequently recorded, using the STATS19 collision reporting form. See the Department for Transport website <https://www.data.gov.uk/dataset/cb7ae6f0-4be6-4935-9277-47e5ce24a11f/road-accidents-safety-data> for more information on these datasets. The package is described in a paper in the Journal of Open Source Software (Lovelace et al. 2019) <doi:10.21105/joss.01181>. See Gilardi et al. (2022) <doi:10.1111/rssa.12823>, Vidal-Tortosa et al. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.jth.2021.101291>, and Tait et al. (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.aap.2022.106895> for examples of how the data can be used for methodological and empirical road safety research.

This package provides tools for transport planning with an emphasis on spatial transport data and non-motorized modes. The package was originally developed to support the Propensity to Cycle Tool', a publicly available strategic cycle network planning tool (Lovelace et al. 2017) <doi:10.5198/jtlu.2016.862>, but has since been extended to support public transport routing and accessibility analysis (Moreno-Monroy et al. 2017) <doi:10.1016/j.jtrangeo.2017.08.012> and routing with locally hosted routing engines such as OSRM (Lowans et al. 2023) <doi:10.1016/j.enconman.2023.117337>. The main functions are for creating and manipulating geographic "desire lines" from origin-destination (OD) data (building on the od package); calculating routes on the transport network locally and via interfaces to routing services such as <https://cyclestreets.net/> (Desjardins et al. 2021) <doi:10.1007/s11116-021-10197-1>; and calculating route segment attributes such as bearing. The package implements the travel flow aggregration method described in Morgan and Lovelace (2020) <doi:10.1177/2399808320942779> and the OD jittering method described in Lovelace et al. (2022) <doi:10.32866/001c.33873>. Further information on the package's aim and scope can be found in the vignettes and in a paper in the R Journal (Lovelace and Ellison 2018) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2018-053>, and in a paper outlining the landscape of open source software for geographic methods in transport planning (Lovelace, 2021) <doi:10.1007/s10109-020-00342-2>.
