Regression splines that handle a mix of continuous and categorical (discrete) data often encountered in applied settings. I would like to gratefully acknowledge support from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC, <https://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca>), the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC, <https://www.sshrc-crsh.gc.ca>), and the Shared Hierarchical Academic Research Computing Network (SHARCNET, <https://www.sharcnet.ca>). We would also like to acknowledge the contributions of the GNU GSL authors. In particular, we adapt the GNU GSL B-spline routine gsl_bspline.c adding automated support for quantile knots (in addition to uniform knots), providing missing functionality for derivatives, and for extending the splines beyond their endpoints.

Fits constrained groupwise additive index models and provides functions for inference and interpretation of these models. The method is described in Masselot, Chebana, Campagna, Lavigne, Ouarda, Gosselin (2022) "Constrained groupwise additive index models" <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxac023>.

This package provides a standardized and reproducible framework for characterizing and classifying discrete color classes from digital images of biological organisms. The package automatically determines the presence or absence of 10 human-visible color categories (black, blue, brown, green, grey, orange, purple, red, white, yellow) using a biologically-inspired Color Look-Up Table (CLUT) that partitions HSV color space. Supports both fully automated and semi-automated (interactive) workflows with complete provenance tracking for reproducibility. Pre-processes images using the recolorize package (Weller et al. 2024 <doi:10.1111/ele.14378>) for spatial-color binning, and integrates with pavo (Maia et al. 2019 <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13174>) for color pattern geometry statistics. Designed for high-throughput analysis and seamless integration with downstream evolutionary analyses.

This package provides a tool that imports, subsets, and exports the CongressData dataset. CongressData contains approximately 800 variables concerning all US congressional districts with data back to 1789. The dataset tracks district characteristics, members of Congress, and the political behavior of those members. Users with only a basic understanding of R can subset this data across multiple dimensions, export their search results, identify the citations associated with their searches, and more.

Simple functions for plotting linear calibration functions and estimating standard errors for measurements according to the Handbook of Chemometrics and Qualimetrics: Part A by Massart et al. (1997) There are also functions estimating the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ). The functions work on model objects from - optionally weighted - linear regression (lm) or robust linear regression ('rlm from the MASS package).

Cases are matched to controls in an efficient, optimal and computationally flexible way. It uses the idea of sub-sampling in the level of the case, by creating pseudo-observations of controls. The user can select between replacement and without replacement, the number of controls, and several covariates to match upon. See Mamouris (2021) <doi:10.1186/s12874-021-01256-3> for an overview.

An implementation of efficiency first conformal prediction (EFCP) and validity first conformal prediction (VFCP) that demonstrates both validity (coverage guarantee) and efficiency (width guarantee). To learn how to use it, check the vignettes for a quick tutorial. The package is based on the work by Yang Y., Kuchibhotla A.,(2021) <arxiv:2104.13871>.

Computes a confidence interval for a specified linear combination of the regression parameters in a linear regression model with iid normal errors with unknown variance when there is uncertain prior information that a distinct specified linear combination of the regression parameters takes a specified number. This confidence interval, found by numerical nonlinear constrained optimization, has the required minimum coverage and utilizes this uncertain prior information through desirable expected length properties. This confidence interval is proposed by Kabaila, P. and Giri, K. (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.jspi.2009.03.018>.

We provide a toolbox to fit a continuous-time fractionally integrated ARMA process (CARFIMA) on univariate and irregularly spaced time series data via both frequentist and Bayesian machinery. A general-order CARFIMA(p, H, q) model for p>q is specified in Tsai and Chan (2005) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2005.00522.x> and it involves p+q+2 unknown model parameters, i.e., p AR parameters, q MA parameters, Hurst parameter H, and process uncertainty (standard deviation) sigma. Also, the model can account for heteroscedastic measurement errors, if the information about measurement error standard deviations is known. The package produces their maximum likelihood estimates and asymptotic uncertainties using a global optimizer called the differential evolution algorithm. It also produces posterior samples of the model parameters via Metropolis-Hastings within a Gibbs sampler equipped with adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo. These fitting procedures, however, may produce numerical errors if p>2. The toolbox also contains a function to simulate discrete time series data from CARFIMA(p, H, q) process given the model parameters and observation times.

Check your R code for some of the most common layout flaws. Many tried to teach us how to write code less dreadful, be it implicitly as B. W. Kernighan and D. M. Ritchie (1988) <ISBN:0-13-110362-8> in The C Programming Language did, be it explicitly as R.C. Martin (2008) <ISBN:0-13-235088-2> in Clean Code: A Handbook of Agile Software Craftsmanship did. So we should check our code for files too long or wide, functions with too many lines, too wide lines, too many arguments or too many levels of nesting. Note: This is not a static code analyzer like pylint or the like. Checkout <https://cran.r-project.org/package=lintr> instead.

Tests, utilities, and case studies for analyzing significance in clustered binary matched-pair data. The central function clust.bin.pair uses one of several tests to calculate a Chi-square statistic. Implemented are the tests Eliasziw (1991) <doi:10.1002/sim.4780101211>, Obuchowski (1998) <doi:10.1002/(SICI)1097-0258(19980715)17:13%3C1495::AID-SIM863%3E3.0.CO;2-I>, Durkalski (2003) <doi:10.1002/sim.1438>, and Yang (2010) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201000035> with McNemar (1947) <doi:10.1007/BF02295996> included for comparison. The utility functions nested.to.contingency and paired.to.contingency convert data between various useful formats. Thyroids and psychiatry are the canonical datasets from Obuchowski and Petryshen (1989) <doi:10.1016/0165-1781(89)90196-0> respectively.

This package provides tools for factor analysis in high-dimensional settings under copula-based factor models. It includes functions to simulate factor-model data with copula-distributed idiosyncratic errors (e.g., Clayton, Gumbel, Frank, Student t and Gaussian copulas) and to perform diagnostic tests such as the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin measure and Bartlett's test of sphericity. Estimation routines include principal component based factor analysis, projected principal component analysis, and principal orthogonal complement thresholding for large covariance matrix estimation. The philosophy of the package is described in Guo G. (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00180-022-01270-z>.
