Data sets and functions, for the display of gene expression array (microarray) data, and for demonstrations with such data.

This package provides a tool to sample data with the desired properties.Samples can be drawn by purposive sampling with determining distributional conditions, such as deviation from normality (skewness and kurtosis), and sample size in quantitative research studies. For purposive sampling, a researcher has something in mind and participants that fit the purpose of the study are included (Etikan,Musa, & Alkassim, 2015) <doi:10.11648/j.ajtas.20160501.11>.Purposive sampling can be useful for answering many research questions (Klar & Leeper, 2019) <doi:10.1002/9781119083771.ch21>.

Pigna [_pìn'n'a_] is the Italian word for pine cone. In jargon, it is used to identify a task which is boring, banal, annoying, painful, frustrating and maybe even with a not so beautiful or rewarding result, just like the obstinate act of trying to challenge yourself in extracting pine nuts from a pine cone, provided that, in the end, you will find at least one inside it. Here you can find a backpack of functions to be used to solve small everyday problems of coding or analyzing (clinical) data, which would be normally solved using quick-and-dirty patches. You will be able to convert Hmisc and rms summary()es into data.frames ready to be rendered by pander and knitr'. You can access easy-to-use wrappers to activate essential but useful progress bars (from progress') into your loops or functionals. Easy setup and control Telegram's bots (from telegram.bot') to send messages or to divert error messages to a Telegram's chat. You also have some utilities helping you in the development of packages, like the activation of the same user interface of usethis into your package, or call polite functions to ask a user to install other packages. Finally, you find a set of thematic sets of packages you may use to set up new environments quickly, installing them in a single call.

This package implements the Improved Expectation Maximisation EM* and the traditional EM algorithm for clustering big data (gaussian mixture models for both multivariate and univariate datasets). This version implements the faster alternative-EM* that expedites convergence via structure based data segregation. The implementation supports both random and K-means++ based initialization.

This package provides functions to impute large gaps within multivariate time series based on Dynamic Time Warping methods. Gaps of size 1 or inferior to a defined threshold are filled using simple average and weighted moving average respectively. Larger gaps are filled using the methodology provided by Phan et al. (2017) <DOI:10.1109/MLSP.2017.8168165>: a query is built immediately before/after a gap and a moving window is used to find the most similar sequence to this query using Dynamic Time Warping. To lower the calculation time, similar sequences are pre-selected using global features. Contrary to the univariate method (package DTWBI'), these global features are not estimated over the sequence containing the gap(s), but a feature matrix is built to summarize general features of the whole multivariate signal. Once the most similar sequence to the query has been identified, the adjacent sequence to this window is used to fill the gap considered. This function can deal with multiple gaps over all the sequences componing the input multivariate signal. However, for better consistency, large gaps at the same location over all sequences should be avoided.

This package provides a collection of novel tools for generating species distribution and abundance models (SDM) that are dynamic through both space and time. These highly flexible functions incorporate spatial and temporal aspects across key SDM stages; including when cleaning and filtering species occurrence data, generating pseudo-absence records, assessing and correcting sampling biases and autocorrelation, extracting explanatory variables and projecting distribution patterns. Throughout, functions utilise Google Earth Engine and Google Drive to minimise the computing power and storage demands associated with species distribution modelling at high spatio-temporal resolution.

Easily create descriptive and comparative tables. It makes use and integrates directly with the tidyverse family of packages, and pipes. Tables are produced as (nested) dataframes for easy manipulation.

Enables the user to build a citation network/graph from bibliographic data and, based on modularity and heterocitation metrics, assess the degree of awareness/cross-fertilization between two corpora/communities. This toolset is optimized for Scopus data.

Track and document dplyr data pipelines. As you filter, mutate, and join your way through a data set, dtrackr seamlessly keeps track of your data flow and makes publication ready documentation of a data pipeline simple.

Calculates distances from point locations to features. The usual approach for eg. resource selection function analyses is to generate a complete distance to features surface then sample it with your observed and random points. Since these raster based approaches can be pretty costly with large areas, and often lead to memory issues in R, the distanceto package opts to compute these distances using efficient, vector based approaches. As a helper, there's a decidedly low-res raster based approach for visually inspecting your region's distance surface. But the workhorse is distance_to.

The assay sensitivity is the minimum number of copies that the digital PCR assay can detect. Users provide serial dilution results in the format of counts of positive and total reaction wells. The output is the estimated assay sensitivity and the copy number per well in the initial dilute.

Dynamic CUR (dCUR) boosts the CUR decomposition (Mahoney MW., Drineas P. (2009) <doi:10.1073/pnas.0803205106>) varying the k, the number of columns and rows used, and its final purposes to help find the stage, which minimizes the relative error to reduce matrix dimension. The goal of CUR Decomposition is to give a better interpretation of the matrix decomposition employing proper variable selection in the data matrix, in a way that yields a simplified structure. Its origins come from analysis in genetics. The goal of this package is to show an alternative to variable selection (columns) or individuals (rows). The idea proposed consists of adjusting the probability distributions to the leverage scores and selecting the best columns and rows that minimize the reconstruction error of the matrix approximation ||A-CUR||. It also includes a method that recalibrates the relative importance of the leverage scores according to an external variable of the user's interest.

Utilities to represent, visualize, filter, analyse, and summarize time-depth recorder (TDR) data. Miscellaneous functions for handling location data are also provided.

Implementation of selected Tidyverse functions within DataSHIELD', an open-source federated analysis solution in R. Currently, DataSHIELD contains very limited tools for data manipulation, so the aim of this package is to improve the researcher experience by implementing essential functions for data manipulation, including subsetting, filtering, grouping, and renaming variables. This is the serverside package which should be installed on the server holding the data, and is used in conjuncture with the clientside package dsTidyverseClient which is installed in the local R environment of the analyst. For more information, see <https://www.tidyverse.org/> and <https://datashield.org/>.

Simulates demic diffusion building on models previously developed for the expansion of Neolithic and other food-producing economies during the Holocene (Fort et al. (2012) <doi:10.7183/0002-7316.77.2.203>, Souza et al. (2021) <doi:10.1098/rsif.2021.0499>). Growth and emigration are modelled as density-dependent processes using logistic growth and an asymptotic threshold model. Environmental and terrain layers, which can change over time, affect carrying capacity, growth and mobility. Multiple centres of origin with their respective starting times can be specified.
