This package provides a utility to quickly obtain clean and tidy college football data. Serves as a wrapper around the <https://collegefootballdata.com/> API and provides functions to access live play by play and box score data from ESPN <https://www.espn.com> when available. It provides users the capability to access a plethora of endpoints, and supplement that data with additional information (Expected Points Added/Win Probability added).

This package provides functions for efficient computation of non-linear spatial predictions with local change of support (Hofer, C. and Papritz, A. (2011) "constrainedKriging: An R-package for customary, constrained and covariance-matching constrained point or block kriging" <doi:10.1016/j.cageo.2011.02.009>). This package supplies functions for two-dimensional spatial interpolation by constrained (Cressie, N. (1993) "Aggregation in geostatistical problems" <doi:10.1007/978-94-011-1739-5_3>), covariance-matching constrained (Aldworth, J. and Cressie, N. (2003) "Prediction of nonlinear spatial functionals" <doi:10.1016/S0378-3758(02)00321-X>) and universal (external drift) Kriging for points or blocks of any shape from data with a non-stationary mean function and an isotropic weakly stationary covariance function. The linear spatial interpolation methods, constrained and covariance-matching constrained Kriging, provide approximately unbiased prediction for non-linear target values under change of support. This package extends the range of tools for spatial predictions available in R and provides an alternative to conditional simulation for non-linear spatial prediction problems with local change of support.

Calculates equitable overload compensation for college instructors based on institutional policies, enrollment thresholds, and regular teaching load limits. Compensation is awarded only for credit hours that exceed the regular load and meet minimum enrollment criteria. When enrollment is below a specified threshold, pay is prorated accordingly. The package prioritizes compensation from high-enrollment courses, or optionally from low-enrollment courses for fairness, depending on user-defined strategy. Includes tools for flexible policy settings, instructor filtering, and produces clean, audit-ready summary tables suitable for payroll and administrative reporting.

Routines for solving convex optimization problems with cone constraints by means of interior-point methods. The implemented algorithms are partially ported from CVXOPT, a Python module for convex optimization (see <https://cvxopt.org> for more information).

The main function calculates confidence intervals (CI) for Mixed Models, utilizing both classical estimators from the lmer() function in the lme4 package and robust estimators from the rlmer() function in the robustlmm package, as well as the varComprob() function in the robustvarComp package. Three methods are available: the classical Wald method, the wild bootstrap, and the parametric bootstrap. Bootstrap methods offer flexibility in obtaining lower and upper bounds through percentile or BCa methods. More details are given in Mason, F., Cantoni, E., & Ghisletta, P. (2021) <doi:10.5964/meth.6607> and Mason, F., Cantoni, E., & Ghisletta, P. (2024) <doi:10.1037/met0000643>.

Evaluation for density and distribution function of convolution of gamma distributions in R. Two related exact methods and one approximate method are implemented with efficient algorithm and C++ code. A quick guide for choosing correct method and usage of this package is given in package vignette. For the detail of methods used in this package, we refer the user to Mathai(1982)<doi:10.1007/BF02481056>, Moschopoulos(1984)<doi:10.1007/BF02481123>, Barnabani(2017)<doi:10.1080/03610918.2014.963612>, Hu et al.(2020)<doi:10.1007/s00180-019-00924-9>.

This package provides a collection of functions for exploratory chemometrics of 2D spectroscopic data sets such as COSY (correlated spectroscopy) and HSQC (heteronuclear single quantum coherence) 2D NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) spectra. ChemoSpec2D deploys methods aimed primarily at classification of samples and the identification of spectral features which are important in distinguishing samples from each other. Each 2D spectrum (a matrix) is treated as the unit of observation, and thus the physical sample in the spectrometer corresponds to the sample from a statistical perspective. In addition to chemometric tools, a few tools are provided for plotting 2D spectra, but these are not intended to replace the functionality typically available on the spectrometer. ChemoSpec2D takes many of its cues from ChemoSpec and tries to create consistent graphical output and to be very user friendly.

Calculates centrality indices additional to the igraph package centrality functions.

This package implements Competitive Adaptive Reweighted Sampling (CARS) algorithm for variable selection from high-dimensional dataset using Partial Least Squares (PLS) regression models. CARS algorithm iteratively applies the Monte Carlo sub-sampling and exponential variable elimination techniques to identify/select the most informative variables/features subjected to minimal cross-validated RMSE score. The implementation of CARS algorithm is inspired from the work of Li et al. (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.aca.2009.06.046>. This algorithm is widely applied in near-infrared (NIR), mid-infrared (MIR), hyperspectral chemometrics areas, etc.

Composite likelihood parameter estimate and asymptotic covariance matrix are calculated for the spatial ordinal data with replications, where spatial ordinal response with covariate and both spatial exponential covariance within subject and independent and identically distributed measurement error. Parameter estimation can be performed by either solving the gradient function or maximizing composite log-likelihood. Parametric bootstrapping is used to estimate the Godambe information matrix and hence the asymptotic standard error and covariance matrix with parallel processing option. Moreover, the proposed surrogate residual, which extends the results of Liu and Zhang (2017) <doi: 10.1080/01621459.2017.1292915>, can act as a useful tool for model diagnostics.

Fit multiclass Classification version of Bayesian Adaptive Smoothing Splines (CBASS) to data using reversible jump MCMC. The multiclass classification problem consists of a response variable that takes on unordered categorical values with at least three levels, and a set of inputs for each response variable. The CBASS model consists of a latent multivariate probit formulation, and the means of the latent Gaussian random variables are specified using adaptive regression splines. The MCMC alternates updates of the latent Gaussian variables and the spline parameters. All the spline parameters (variables, signs, knots, number of interactions), including the number of basis functions used to model each latent mean, are inferred. Functions are provided to process inputs, initialize the chain, run the chain, and make predictions. Predictions are made on a probabilistic basis, where, for a given input, the probabilities of each categorical value are produced. See Marrs and Francom (2023) "Multiclass classification using Bayesian multivariate adaptive regression splines" Under review.
