There are three different modules: (1) model fitting and selection using a set of the most commonly used equations describing developmental responses to temperature helped by already existing R packages ('rTPC') and nonlinear regression model functions from nls.multstart (Padfield et al. 2021, <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13585>), with visualization of model predictions to guide ecological criteria for model selection; (2) calculation of suitability thermal limits, which consist on a temperature interval delimiting the optimal performance zone or suitability; and (3) climatic data extraction and visualization inspired on previous research (Taylor et al. 2019, <doi:10.1111/1365-2664.13455>), with either exportable rasters, static map images or html, interactive maps.

Addons for the mice package to perform multiple imputation using chained equations with two-level data. Includes imputation methods dedicated to sporadically and systematically missing values. Imputation of continuous, binary or count variables are available. Following the recommendations of Audigier, V. et al (2018) <doi:10.1214/18-STS646>, the choice of the imputation method for each variable can be facilitated by a default choice tuned according to the structure of the incomplete dataset. Allows parallel calculation and overimputation for mice'.

This package provides a method for multivariate ordinal data generation given marginal distributions and correlation matrix based on the methodology proposed by Demirtas (2006) <DOI:10.1080/10629360600569246>.

Aggregates matrix population models (MPMs) in both the lambda (stable growth rate) and R0 (net reproductive rate) frameworks, including standard and elasticity-consistent aggregators. Standard aggregation in the lambda framework maintains consistent lambda and stable stage distribution, while standard aggregation in the R0 framework maintains consistent R0 and cohort stable stage distribution. Elasticity-consistent aggregators maintain these same consistencies with respect to the chosen framework and additionally preserve consistent reproductive values in the lambda framework and cohort reproductive values in the R0 framework. Aggregation can take the form of general-to-general MPM (mpm_aggregate) or Leslie-to-Leslie MPM (leslie_aggregate).

Fits and tests meta regression models and generates a number of useful test statistics: next to t- and z-tests, the likelihood ratio, bartlett corrected likelihood ratio and permutation tests are performed on the model coefficients.

This package provides tools to conduct Monte Carlo simulations under different conditions (e.g., varying sample size, data normality) for structural equation models (SEMs). Data can be simulated based on user-defined factor loadings and correlations, with optional non-normality added via Fleishman's power method (1978) <doi:10.1007/BF02293811>. Once generated, models can be estimated using lavaan'. This package facilitates testing model performance across multiple simulation scenarios. When data generation is completed (or when generated data sets are given) model tests can also be run. Please cite as "Orçan, F. (2021). MonteCarloSEM An R Package to Simulate Data for SEM. International Journal of Assessment Tools in Education, 8 (3), 704-713.".

Generates Raven like matrices according to different rules and the response list associated to the matrix. The package can generate matrices composed of 4 or 9 cells, along with a response list of 11 elements (the correct response + 10 incorrect responses). The matrices can be generated according to both logical rules (i.e., the relationships between the elements in the matrix are manipulated to create the matrix) and visual-spatial rules (i.e., the visual or spatial characteristics of the elements are manipulated to generate the matrix). The graphical elements of this package are based on the DescTools package. This package has been developed within the PRIN2020 Project (Prot. 20209WKCLL) titled "Computerized, Adaptive and Personalized Assessment of Executive Functions and Fluid Intelligence" and founded by the Italian Ministry of Education and Research.

Epistasis, commonly defined as the interaction between genetic loci, is known to play an important role in the phenotypic variation of complex traits. As a result, many statistical methods have been developed to identify genetic variants that are involved in epistasis, and nearly all of these approaches carry out this task by focusing on analyzing one trait at a time. Previous studies have shown that jointly modeling multiple phenotypes can often dramatically increase statistical power for association mapping. In this package, we present the multivariate MArginal ePIstasis Test ('mvMAPIT') â a multi-outcome generalization of a recently proposed epistatic detection method which seeks to detect marginal epistasis or the combined pairwise interaction effects between a given variant and all other variants. By searching for marginal epistatic effects, one can identify genetic variants that are involved in epistasis without the need to identify the exact partners with which the variants interact â thus, potentially alleviating much of the statistical and computational burden associated with conventional explicit search based methods. Our proposed mvMAPIT builds upon this strategy by taking advantage of correlation structure between traits to improve the identification of variants involved in epistasis. We formulate mvMAPIT as a multivariate linear mixed model and develop a multi-trait variance component estimation algorithm for efficient parameter inference and P-value computation. Together with reasonable model approximations, our proposed approach is scalable to moderately sized genome-wide association studies. Crawford et al. (2017) <doi:10.1371/journal.pgen.1006869>.

Generate interactive html reports that enable quick visual review of multiple related time series stored in a data frame. For static datasets, this can help to identify any temporal artefacts that may affect the validity of subsequent analyses. For live data feeds, regularly scheduled reports can help to pro-actively identify data feed problems or unexpected trends that may require action. The reports are self-contained and shareable without a web server.

This package provides functionality for estimating cross-sectional network structures representing partial correlations while accounting for missing data. Networks are estimated via neighborhood selection or regularization, with model selection guided by information criteria. Missing data can be handled primarily via multiple imputation or a maximum likelihood-based approach, as demonstrated by Nehler and Schultze (2025a) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/qpj35> and Nehler and Schultze (2025b) <doi:10.1080/00273171.2025.2503833>. Deletion-based approaches are also available but play a secondary role.

This package provides a suite of utility functions providing functionality commonly needed for production level projects such as logging, error handling, cache management and date-time parsing. Functions for date-time parsing and formatting require that time zones be specified explicitly, avoiding a common source of error when working with environmental time series.

Offering enhanced statistical power compared to traditional hypothesis testing methods, informative hypothesis testing allows researchers to explicitly model their expectations regarding the relationships among parameters. An important software tool for this framework is restriktor'. The mmirestriktor package provides shiny web applications to implement some of the basic functionality of restriktor'. The mmirestriktor() function launches a shiny application for fitting and analyzing models with constraints. The FbarCards() function launches a card game application which can help build intuition about informative hypothesis testing. The iht_interpreter() helps interpret informative hypothesis testing results based on guidelines in Vanbrabant and Rosseel (2020) <doi:10.4324/9780429273872-14>.
