Wrapper around the City of Vancouver Open Data API <https://opendata.vancouver.ca/api/v2/console> to simplify and standardize access to City of Vancouver open data. Functionality to list the data catalogue and access data and geographic records.

Import and handling data from vegetation-plot databases, especially data stored in Turboveg 2 (<https://www.synbiosys.alterra.nl/turboveg/>). Also import/export routines for exchange of data with Juice (<https://www.sci.muni.cz/botany/juice/>) are implemented.

Robust and reliable functions to return informative outputs to console with the run or source location of a command. This can be from the RScript'/R terminal commands or RStudio console, source editor, Rmarkdown document and a Shiny application.

This package wraps the AntiWord utility to extract text from Microsoft Word documents. The utility only supports the old doc format, not the new XML based docx format. Use the xml2 package to read the latter.

This r-abctools package provides tools for approximate Bayesian computation including summary statistic selection and assessing coverage. This includes recent dimension reduction algorithms to tune the choice of summary statistics, and coverage methods to tune the choice of threshold.

This package provides functions to fit kernel density functions to animal activity time data; plot activity distributions; quantify overall levels of activity; statistically compare activity metrics through bootstrapping; and evaluate variation in linear variables with time (or other circular variables).

This package contains genomic data for the plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans. It includes a variant file, a sequence file and an annotation file. This package is intended to be used as example data for packages that work with genomic data.

Psych is a YAML parser and emitter. Psych leverages libyaml for its YAML parsing and emitting capabilities. In addition to wrapping libyaml, Psych also knows how to serialize and de-serialize most Ruby objects to and from the YAML format.

The GenDataSample() and GenDataPopulation() functions create, respectively, a sample or population of multivariate nonnormal data using methods described in Ruscio and Kaczetow (2008). Both of these functions call a FactorAnalysis() function to reproduce a correlation matrix. The EFACompData() function allows users to determine how many factors to retain in an exploratory factor analysis of an empirical data set using a method described in Ruscio and Roche (2012). The latter function uses populations of comparison data created by calling the GenDataPopulation() function. <DOI: 10.1080/00273170802285693>. <DOI: 10.1037/a0025697>.

This package provides functions are provided for defining animated, interactive data visualizations in R code, and rendering on a web page. The 2018 Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics paper, <doi:10.1080/10618600.2018.1513367> describes the concepts implemented.

Cronbach's alpha and various formulas for confidence intervals. The relevant paper is Tsagris M., Frangos C.C. and Frangos C.C. (2013). "Confidence intervals for Cronbach's reliability coefficient". Recent Techniques in Educational Science, 14-16 May, Athens, Greece.

Downloads USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) cropscape data for a specified state. Utilities for fips, abbreviation, and name conversion are also provided. Full functionality requires an internet connection, but data sets can be cached for later off-line use.

Convert MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventory Words and Gestures scores to would-be scores on Words and Sentences, based on modeling from the Stanford Wordbank <https://wordbank.stanford.edu/>. See Day et al. (2025) <doi:10.1111/desc.70036>.

This package performs DIFlasso as proposed by Tutz and Schauberger (2015) <doi:10.1007/s11336-013-9377-6>, a method to detect DIF (Differential Item Functioning) in Rasch Models. It can handle settings with many variables and also metric variables.

Nonparametric estimator of the cumulative incidences of competing risks under double truncation. The estimator generalizes the Efron-Petrosian NPMLE (Non-Parametric Maximun Likelihood Estimator) to the competing risks setting. Efron, B. and Petrosian, V. (1999) <doi:10.2307/2669997>.

Graphical methods for compactly illustrating probability distributions, including density strips, density regions, sectioned density plots and varying width strips, using base R graphics. Note that the ggdist package offers a similar set of tools for illustrating distributions, based on ggplot2'.

This package provides tools to quantify transmissibility throughout an epidemic from the analysis of time series of incidence as described in Cori et al. (2013) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwt133> and Wallinga and Teunis (2004) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwh255>.

This package provides the function fancycut() which is like cut() except you can mix left open and right open intervals with point values, intervals that are closed on both ends and intervals that are open on both ends.

Computes probabilities related to group sequential designs for normally distributed test statistics. Enables to derive critical boundaries, power, drift, and confidence intervals of such designs. Supports the alpha spending approach by Lan-DeMets (1994) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780131308>.

Fit an array of decision-making tasks with computational models in a hierarchical Bayesian framework. Can perform hierarchical Bayesian analysis of various computational models with a single line of coding (Ahn et al., 2017) <doi:10.1162/CPSY_a_00002>.

In classification problems a monotone relation between some predictors and the classes may be assumed. In this package isoboost we propose new boosting algorithms, based on LogitBoost, that incorporate this isotonicity information, yielding more accurate and easily interpretable rules.

Pre-processing and basic analytical tasks related to working with Eurostat's symmetric input-output tables and provide basic input-output economics calculations. The package is part of rOpenGov <http://ropengov.github.io/> to open source open government initiatives.

Allows for the non-parametric estimation of transition intensities in interval-censored multi-state models using the approach of Gomon and Putter (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2409.07176> or Gu et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asad073>.
