This is for code management functions, NLP tools, a Monty Hall simulator, and for implementing my own variable reduction technique called Feed Reduction. The Feed Reduction technique is not yet published, but is merely a tool for implementing a series of binary neural networks meant for reducing data into N dimensions, where N is the number of possible values of the response variable.

Publicly available data from Medicare frequently requires extensive initial effort to extract desired variables and merge them; this package formalizes the techniques I've found work best. More information on the Medicare program, as well as guidance for the publicly available data this package targets, can be found on CMS's website covering publicly available data. See <https://www.cms.gov/data-research>.

This package implements a robust multivariate control-chart methodology for batch-based industrial processes with multiple correlated variables using the Dual STATIS (Structuration des Tableaux A Trois Indices de la Statistique) framework. A robust compromise covariance matrix is constructed from Phase I batches with the Minimum Covariance Determinant (MCD) estimator, and a Hotelling-type T² statistic is applied for anomaly detection in Phase II. The package includes functions to simulate clean and contaminated batches, to compute both robust and classical Hotelling T² control charts, to visualize results via robust biplots, and to launch an interactive shiny dashboard. An internal dataset (pharma_data) is provided for reproducibility. See Lavit, Escoufier, Sabatier and Traissac (1994) <doi:10.1016/0167-9473(94)90134-1> for the original STATIS methodology, and Rousseeuw and Van Driessen (1999) <doi:10.1080/00401706.1999.10485670> for the MCD estimator.
This package provides tools for the variable selection from random forests using both backwards variable elimination (for the selection of small sets of non-redundant variables) and selection based on the importance spectrum (somewhat similar to scree plots; for the selection of large, potentially highly-correlated variables). The main applications are in high-dimensional data (e.g., microarray data, and other genomics and proteomics applications).
This package provides an R port of the library Clipper. It performs polygon clipping operations (intersection, union, set minus, set difference) for polygonal regions of arbitrary complexity, including holes. It computes offset polygons (spatial buffer zones, morphological dilations, Minkowski dilations) for polygonal regions and polygonal lines. It computes the Minkowski Sum of general polygons. There is a function for removing self-intersections from polygon data.
Helps enable adaptive management by codifying knowledge in the form of models generated from numerous analyses and data sets. Facilitates this process by storing all models and data sets in a single object that can be updated and saved, thus tracking changes in knowledge through time. A shiny application called AM Model Manager (modelMgr()) enables the use of these functions via a GUI.
