Using a Bayesian estimation procedure, this package fits linear quantile regression models such as linear quantile models, linear quantile mixed models, quantile regression joint models for time-to-event and longitudinal data. The estimation procedure is based on the asymmetric Laplace distribution and the JAGS software is used to get posterior samples (Yang, Luo, DeSantis (2019) <doi:10.1177/0962280218784757>).

This package provides a collection of functions for downloading and processing automatic weather station (AWS) data from INMET (Brazilâ s National Institute of Meteorology), designed to support the estimation of reference evapotranspiration (ETo). The package facilitates streamlined access to meteorological data and aims to simplify analyses in agricultural and environmental contexts.

Simultaneous clustering of rows and columns, usually designated by biclustering, co-clustering or block clustering, is an important technique in two way data analysis. It consists of estimating a mixture model which takes into account the block clustering problem on both the individual and variables sets. The blockcluster package provides a bridge between the C++ core library build on top of the STK++ library, and the R statistical computing environment. This package allows to co-cluster binary <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2007.09.007>, contingency <doi:10.1080/03610920903140197>, continuous <doi:10.1007/s11634-013-0161-3> and categorical data-sets <doi:10.1007/s11222-014-9472-2>. It also provides utility functions to visualize the results. This package may be useful for various applications in fields of Data mining, Information retrieval, Biology, computer vision and many more.

Bisulfite-treated RNA non-conversion in a set of samples is analysed as follows : each sample's non-conversion distribution is identified to a Poisson distribution. P-values adjusted for multiple testing are calculated in each sample. Combined non-conversion P-values and standard errors are calculated on the intersection of the set of samples. For further details, see C Legrand, F Tuorto, M Hartmann, R Liebers, D Jakob, M Helm and F Lyko (2017) <doi:10.1101/gr.210666.116>.

Model fitting is done using several packages: rstan', INLA', spBayes', spTimer', spTDyn', CARBayes and CARBayesST'. Model comparison is performed using the DIC and WAIC, and K-fold cross-validation where the user is free to select their own subset of data rows for validation.

This package provides functions to aid in the design and analysis of agronomic and agricultural experiments through easy access to documentation and helper functions, especially for users who are learning these concepts. While not required for most functionality, this package enhances the `asreml` package which provides a computationally efficient algorithm for fitting mixed models using Residual Maximum Likelihood. It is a commercial package that can be purchased as asreml-R from VSNi <https://vsni.co.uk/>, who will supply a zip file for local installation/updating (see <https://asreml.kb.vsni.co.uk/>).

Usually, it is difficult to plot choropleth maps for Bangladesh in R'. The bangladesh package provides ready-to-use shapefiles for different administrative regions of Bangladesh (e.g., Division, District, Upazila, and Union). This package helps users to draw thematic maps of administrative regions of Bangladesh easily as it comes with the sf objects for the boundaries. It also provides functions allowing users to efficiently get specific area maps and center coordinates for regions. Users can also search for a specific area and calculate the centroids of those areas.

This package provides functions to estimate latent dimensions of choice and judgment using Aldrich-McKelvey and Blackbox scaling methods, as described in Poole et al. (2016, <doi:10.18637/jss.v069.i07>). These techniques allow researchers (particularly those analyzing political attitudes, public opinion, and legislative behavior) to recover spatial estimates of political actors ideal points and stimuli from issue scale data, accounting for perceptual bias, multidimensional spaces, and missing data. The package uses singular value decomposition and alternating least squares (ALS) procedures to scale self-placement and perceptual data into a common latent space for the analysis of ideological or evaluative dimensions. Functionality also include tools for assessing model fit, handling complex survey data structures, and reproducing simulated datasets for methodological validation.

This package provides fast and efficient procedures for Bayesian analysis of Structural Vector Autoregressions. This package estimates a wide range of models, including homo-, heteroskedastic, and non-normal specifications. Structural models can be identified by adjustable exclusion restrictions, time-varying volatility, or non-normality. They all include a flexible three-level equation-specific local-global hierarchical prior distribution for the estimated level of shrinkage for autoregressive and structural parameters. Additionally, the package facilitates predictive and structural analyses such as impulse responses, forecast error variance and historical decompositions, forecasting, verification of heteroskedasticity, non-normality, and hypotheses on autoregressive parameters, as well as analyses of structural shocks, volatilities, and fitted values. Beautiful plots, informative summary functions, and extensive documentation including the vignette by Woźniak (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.15090> complement all this. The implemented techniques align closely with those presented in Lütkepohl, Shang, Uzeda, & Woźniak (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.11057>, Lütkepohl & Woźniak (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.jedc.2020.103862>, and Song & Woźniak (2021) <doi:10.1093/acrefore/9780190625979.013.174>. The bsvars package is aligned regarding objects, workflows, and code structure with the R package bsvarSIGNs by Wang & Woźniak (2024) <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.bsvarSIGNs>, and they constitute an integrated toolset.

And calculates different adjustment statistics such as the Akaike information criterion and Bayesian information criterion.
