This package provides a set of functions and a class to connect, extract and upload information from the LSEG Datastream database. This package uses the DSWS API and server used by the Datastream DFO addin'. Details of this API are available at <https://www.lseg.com/en/data-analytics>. Please report issues at <https://github.com/CharlesCara/DatastreamDSWS2R/issues>.

Probability generating function, formulae for the probabilities (discrete density) and random generation for discrete stable random variables.

This package provides tools to estimate and manage empirical distributions, which should work with survey data. One of the main features is the possibility to create data cubes of estimated statistics, that include all the combinations of the variables of interest (see for example functions dcc5() and dcc6()).

Shiny application that performs bifurcation and phaseplane analysis of systems of ordinary differential equations. The package allows for computation of equilibrium curves as a function of a single free parameter, detection of transcritical, saddle-node and hopf bifurcation points along these curves, and computation of curves representing these transcritical, saddle-node and hopf bifurcation points as a function of two free parameters. The shiny-based GUI allows visualization of the results in both 2D- and 3D-plots. The implemented methods for solution localisation and curve continuation are based on the book "Elements of applied bifurcation theory" (Kuznetsov, Y. A., 1995; ISBN: 0-387-94418-4).

The goal of dataspice is to make it easier for researchers to create basic, lightweight, and concise metadata files for their datasets. These basic files can then be used to make useful information available during analysis, create a helpful dataset "README" webpage, and produce more complex metadata formats to aid dataset discovery. Metadata fields are based on the Schema.org and Ecological Metadata Language standards.

This package provides a port of the web-based software DAGitty', available at <https://dagitty.net>, for analyzing structural causal models (also known as directed acyclic graphs or DAGs). This package computes covariate adjustment sets for estimating causal effects, enumerates instrumental variables, derives testable implications (d-separation and vanishing tetrads), generates equivalent models, and includes a simple facility for data simulation.

Easily perform a Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate the cost and carbon, ecological, and water footprints of a set of ideal diets. Pre-processing tools are also available to quickly treat the data, along with basic statistical features to analyze the simulation results â including the ability to establish confidence intervals for selected parameters, such as nutrients and price/emissions. A standard version of the datasets employed is included as well, allowing users easy access to customization. This package brings to R the Python software initially developed by Vandevijvere, Young, Mackay, Swinburn and Gahegan (2018) <doi:10.1186/s12966-018-0648-6>.

This package provides functions for visualizing distributional regression models fitted using the gamlss', bamlss or betareg R package. The core of the package consists of a shiny application, where the model results can be interactively explored and visualized.

This package provides a toolbox for descriptive statistics, based on the computation of frequency and contingency tables. Several statistical functions and plot methods are provided to describe univariate or bivariate distributions of factors, integer series and numerical series either provided as individual values or as bins.

This package provides fast methods to work with Merton's distance to default model introduced in Merton (1974) <doi:10.1111/j.1540-6261.1974.tb03058.x>. The methods includes simulation and estimation of the parameters.

Main function "decode" is used to decode coded key values to plain text. Function "code" can be used to code plain text to code if there is a 1:1 relation between the two. The concept relies on keyvalue objects used for translation. There are several keyvalue objects included in the areas of geographical regional codes, administrative health care unit codes, diagnosis codes and more. It is also easy to extend the use by arbitrary code sets.

This package provides a flexible container to manage and annotate Differential Gene Expression (DGE) analysis results (Smythe et. al (2015) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkv007>). The DGEobj has data slots for row (gene), col (samples), assays (matrix n-rows by m-samples dimensions) and metadata (not keyed to row, col, or assays). A set of accessory functions to deposit, query and retrieve subsets of a data workflow has been provided. Attributes are used to capture metadata such as species and gene model, including reproducibility information such that a 3rd party can access a DGEobj history to see how each data object was created or modified. Since the DGEobj is customizable and extensible it is not limited to RNA-seq analysis types of workflows -- it can accommodate nearly any data analysis workflow that starts from a matrix of assays (rows) by samples (columns).

This package provides a set of functions for the detection of spatial clusters of disease using count data. Bootstrap is used to estimate sampling distributions of statistics.

Estimation of a density from grouped (tabulated) summary statistics evaluated in each of the big bins (or classes) partitioning the support of the variable. These statistics include class frequencies and central moments of order one up to four. The log-density is modelled using a linear combination of penalised B-splines. The multinomial log-likelihood involving the frequencies adds up to a roughness penalty based on the differences in the coefficients of neighbouring B-splines and the log of a root-n approximation of the sampling density of the observed vector of central moments in each class. The so-obtained penalized log-likelihood is maximized using the EM algorithm to get an estimate of the spline parameters and, consequently, of the variable density and related quantities such as quantiles, see Lambert, P. (2021) <arXiv:2107.03883> for details.

This package performs cluster analysis using an ensemble clustering framework, Chiu & Talhouk (2018) <doi:10.1186/s12859-017-1996-y>. Results from a diverse set of algorithms are pooled together using methods such as majority voting, K-Modes, LinkCluE, and CSPA. There are options to compare cluster assignments across algorithms using internal and external indices, visualizations such as heatmaps, and significance testing for the existence of clusters.

Various functions to import, verify, process and plot high-resolution dendrometer data using daily and stem-cycle approaches as described in Deslauriers et al, 2007 <doi:10.1016/j.dendro.2007.05.003>. For more details about the package please see: Van der Maaten et al. 2016 <doi:10.1016/j.dendro.2016.06.001>.

This package provides a comprehensive set of wrapper functions for the analysis of multiplex metabarcode data. It includes robust wrappers for Cutadapt and DADA2 to trim primers, filter reads, perform amplicon sequence variant (ASV) inference, and assign taxonomy. The package can handle single metabarcode datasets, datasets with two pooled metabarcodes, or multiple datasets simultaneously. The final output is a matrix per metabarcode, containing both ASV abundance data and associated taxonomic assignments. An optional function converts these matrices into phyloseq and taxmap objects. For more information on DADA2', including information on how DADA2 infers samples sequences, see Callahan et al. (2016) <doi:10.1038/nmeth.3869>. For more details on the demulticoder R package see Sudermann et al. (2025) <doi:10.1094/PHYTO-02-25-0043-FI>.

The models of probability density functions are Gaussian or exponential distributions with polynomial correction terms. Using a maximum likelihood method, dsdp computes parameters of Gaussian or exponential distributions together with degrees of polynomials by a grid search, and coefficient of polynomials by a variant of semidefinite programming. It adopts Akaike Information Criterion for model selection. See a vignette for a tutorial and more on our Github repository <https://github.com/tsuchiya-lab/dsdp/>.

This package performs the identification of differential risk hotspots (Briz-Redon et al. 2019) <doi:10.1016/j.aap.2019.105278> along a linear network. Given a marked point pattern lying on the linear network, the method implemented uses a network-constrained version of kernel density estimation (McSwiggan et al. 2017) <doi:10.1111/sjos.12255> to approximate the probability of occurrence across space for the type of event specified by the user through the marks of the pattern (Kelsall and Diggle 1995) <doi:10.2307/3318678>. The goal is to detect microzones of the linear network where the type of event indicated by the user is overrepresented.

This package provides functions for handling dates.

Implementing algorithms and fitting models when sites (possibly remote) share computation summaries rather than actual data over HTTP with a master R process (using opencpu', for example). A stratified Cox model and a singular value decomposition are provided. The former makes direct use of code from the R survival package. (That is, the underlying Cox model code is derived from that in the R survival package.) Sites may provide data via several means: CSV files, Redcap API, etc. An extensible design allows for new methods to be added in the future and includes facilities for local prototyping and testing. Web applications are provided (via shiny') for the implemented methods to help in designing and deploying the computations.

Creating dendrochronological networks based on the similarity between tree-ring series or chronologies. The package includes various functions to compare tree-ring curves building upon the dplR package. The networks can be used to visualise and understand the relations between tree-ring curves. These networks are also very useful to estimate the provenance of wood as described in Visser (2021) <DOI:10.5334/jcaa.79> or wood-use within a structure/context/site as described in Visser and Vorst (2022) <DOI:10.1163/27723194-bja10014>.

Applies dynamic structural equation models to time-series data with generic and simplified specification for simultaneous and lagged effects. Methods are described in Thorson et al. (2024) "Dynamic structural equation models synthesize ecosystem dynamics constrained by ecological mechanisms.".

Analyses gene expression data derived from experiments to detect differentially expressed genes by employing the concept of majority voting with five different statistical models. It includes functions for differential expression analysis, significance testing, etc. It simplifies the process of uncovering meaningful patterns and trends within gene expression data, aiding researchers in downstream analysis.
