This package provides an accessible and robust implementation of core BME methodologies for spatial prediction. It enables the systematic integration of heterogeneous data sources including both hard data (precise measurements) and soft interval data (bounded or uncertain observations) while incorporating prior knowledge and supporting variogram-based spatial modeling. The BME methodology is described in Christakos (1990) <doi:10.1007/BF00890661>, Serre and Christakos (1999) <doi:10.1007/s004770050029> and Duah (2025, 2026) <doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2026.100974>.

Approximate Euclidean k-nearest neighbour search routines that operate on bigmemory::big.matrix data through Annoy indexes created with RcppAnnoy'. The package builds persistent on-disk indexes plus sidecar metadata from streamed big.matrix rows, supports euclidean, angular, Manhattan, and dot-product Annoy metrics, and can either return in-memory results or stream neighbour indices and distances into destination bigmemory matrices. Explicit index life cycle helpers, stronger metadata validation, descriptor-aware file-backed workflows, and benchmark helpers are also included.

This package provides a convenience package for use while drafting code. It facilitates making stand-out comment lines decorated with bands of characters. The input text strings are converted into R comment lines, suitably formatted. These are then displayed in a console window and, if possible, automatically transferred to a clipboard ready for pasting into an R script. Designed to save time when drafting R scripts that will need to be navigated and maintained by other programmers.

Collect data from and make posts on Bluesky Social via the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Application Programming Interface (API), as documented at <https://atproto.com/specs/xrpc>. This further supports broader queries to the Authenticated Transfer (AT) Protocol <https://atproto.com/> which Bluesky Social relies on. Data is returned in a tidy format and posts can be made using a simple interface.

This package provides a registry of APIs listed on <https://bund.dev> and a core OpenAPI client layer to explore specs and perform requests. Adapter helpers return tidy data frames for supported APIs, with optional response caching and rate limiting guidance.

This package performs parametric mediation analysis using the Bayesian g-formula approach for binary and continuous outcomes. The methodology is based on Comment (2018) <doi:10.5281/zenodo.1285275> and a demonstration of its application can be found at Yimer et al. (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2210.08499>.

This app provides some useful tools for Offering an accessible GUI for generalised blockmodeling of single-relation, one-mode networks. The user can execute blockmodeling without having to write a line code by using the app's visual helps. Moreover, there are several ways to visualisations networks and their partitions. Finally, the results can be exported as if they were produced by writing code. The development of this package is financially supported by the Slovenian Research Agency (www.arrs.gov.si) within the research project J5-2557 (Comparison and evaluation of different approaches to blockmodeling dynamic networks by simulations with application to Slovenian co-authorship networks).
