Model fitting and evaluation tools for double generalized linear models (DGLMs). This class of models uses one generalized linear model (GLM) to fit the specified response and a second GLM to fit the deviance of the first model.

For an observational study with binary treatment, binary outcome and K strata, implements a d-statistic that uses those strata most insensitive to unmeasured bias in treatment assignment.<doi:10.1093/biomet/asaa032> The package has one function, dstat2x2xk.

Use leaf physiognomic methods to reconstruct mean annual temperature (MAT), mean annual precipitation (MAP), and leaf dry mass per area (Ma), along with other useful quantitative leaf traits. Methods in this package described in Lowe et al. (in review).

Diagnostics for linear L1 regression (also known as LAD - Least Absolute Deviations), including: estimation, confidence intervals, tests of hypotheses, measures of leverage, methods of diagnostics for L1 regression, special diagnostics graphs and measures of leverage. The algorithms are based in Dielman (2005) <doi:10.1080/0094965042000223680>, Elian et al. (2000) <doi:10.1080/03610920008832518> and Dodge (1997) <doi:10.1006/jmva.1997.1666>. This package builds on the quantreg package, which is a well-established package for tuning quantile regression models. There are also tests to verify if the errors have a Laplace distribution based on the work of Puig and Stephens (2000) <doi:10.2307/1270952>.

Written to help undergraduate as well as graduate students to get started with R for basic econometrics without the need to import specific functions and datasets from many different sources. Primarily, the package is meant to accompany the German textbook Auer, L.v., Hoffmann, S., Kranz, T. (2024, ISBN: 978-3-662-68263-0) from which the exercises cover all the topics from the textbook Auer, L.v. (2023, ISBN: 978-3-658-42699-6).

An R implementation and enhancement of the Dynamic TOPMODEL semi-distributed hydrological model originally proposed by Beven and Freer (2001) <doi:10.1002/hyp.252>. The dynatop package implements code for simulating models which can be created using the dynatopGIS package.

Algorithms implementing populations of agents that interact with one another and sense their environment may exhibit emergent behavior such as self-organization and swarm intelligence. Here, a swarm system called Databionic swarm (DBS) is introduced which was published in Thrun, M.C., Ultsch A.: "Swarm Intelligence for Self-Organized Clustering" (2020), Artificial Intelligence, <DOI:10.1016/j.artint.2020.103237>. DBS is able to adapt itself to structures of high-dimensional data such as natural clusters characterized by distance and/or density based structures in the data space. The first module is the parameter-free projection method called Pswarm (Pswarm()), which exploits the concepts of self-organization and emergence, game theory, swarm intelligence and symmetry considerations. The second module is the parameter-free high-dimensional data visualization technique, which generates projected points on the topographic map with hypsometric tints defined by the generalized U-matrix (GeneratePswarmVisualization()). The third module is the clustering method itself with non-critical parameters (DBSclustering()). Clustering can be verified by the visualization and vice versa. The term DBS refers to the method as a whole. It enables even a non-professional in the field of data mining to apply its algorithms for visualization and/or clustering to data sets with completely different structures drawn from diverse research fields. The comparison to common projection methods can be found in the book of Thrun, M.C.: "Projection Based Clustering through Self-Organization and Swarm Intelligence" (2018) <DOI:10.1007/978-3-658-20540-9>.

Perform model selection using distribution and probability-based methods, including standardized AIC, BIC, and AICc. These standardized information criteria allow one to perform model selection in a way similar to the prevalent "Rule of 2" method, but formalize the method to rely on probability theory. A novel goodness-of-fit procedure for assessing linear regression models is also available. This test relies on theoretical properties of the estimated error variance for a normal linear regression model, and employs a bootstrap procedure to assess the null hypothesis that the fitted model shows no lack of fit. For more information, see Koeneman and Cavanaugh (2023) <arXiv:2309.10614>. Functionality to perform all subsets linear or generalized linear regression is also available.

Analysis of agreement for nominal data between two raters using the Delta model. This model is proposed as an alternative to the widespread measure Cohen kappa coefficient, which performs poorly when the marginal distributions are very asymmetric (Martin-Andres and Femia-Marzo (2004), <doi:10.1348/000711004849268>; Martin-Andres and Femia-Marzo (2008) <doi:10.1080/03610920701669884>). The package also contains a function to perform a massive analysis of multiple raters against a gold standard. A shiny app is also provided to obtain the measures of nominal agreement between two raters.

Efficient procedures for fitting the DD-PCA (Ke et al., 2019, <arXiv:1906.00051>) by decomposing a large covariance matrix into a low-rank matrix plus a diagonally dominant matrix. The implementation of DD-PCA includes the convex approach using the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) and the non-convex approach using the iterative projection algorithm. Applications of DD-PCA to large covariance matrix estimation and global multiple testing are also included in this package.

This package provides methods to estimate the optimal treatment regime among all linear regimes via smoothed estimation methods, and construct element-wise confidence intervals for the optimal linear treatment regime vector, as well as the confidence interval for the optimal value via wild bootstrap procedures, if the population follows treatments recommended by the optimal linear regime. See more details in: Wu, Y. and Wang, L. (2021), "Resampling-based Confidence Intervals for Model-free Robust Inference on Optimal Treatment Regimes", Biometrics, 77: 465â 476, <doi:10.1111/biom.13337>.

This package provides a flexible container to transport and manipulate complex sets of data. These data may consist of multiple data files and associated meta data and ancillary files. Individual data objects have associated system level meta data, and data files are linked together using the OAI-ORE standard resource map which describes the relationships between the files. The OAI- ORE standard is described at <https://www.openarchives.org/ore/>. Data packages can be serialized and transported as structured files that have been created following the BagIt specification. The BagIt specification is described at <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-kunze-bagit-08>.

There are many different formats dates are commonly represented with: the order of day, month, or year can differ, different separators ("-", "/", or whitespace) can be used, months can be numerical, names, or abbreviations and year given as two digits or four. datefixR takes dates in all these different formats and converts them to R's built-in date class. If datefixR cannot standardize a date, such as because it is too malformed, then the user is told which date cannot be standardized and the corresponding ID for the row. datefixR also allows the imputation of missing days and months with user-controlled behavior.

Discrete splines are a class of univariate piecewise polynomial functions which are analogous to splines, but whose smoothness is defined via divided differences rather than derivatives. Tools for efficient computations relating to discrete splines are provided here. These tools include discrete differentiation and integration, various matrix computations with discrete derivative or discrete spline bases matrices, and interpolation within discrete spline spaces. These techniques are described in Tibshirani (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2003.03886>.

An extension to the DPQ package with computations for DPQ (Density (pdf), Probability (cdf) and Quantile) functions, where the functions here partly use the Rmpfr package and hence the underlying MPFR and GMP C libraries.
