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>.

Discrete factor analysis for dependent Poisson and negative binomial models with truncation, zero inflation, and zero inflated truncation.

This package implements S4 classes for probability models based on packages distr and distrEx'.

This package implements the deflist class, a read-only list-like object that accesses its elements via a function. The deflist class can be used to model deferred access to data or computations by routing indexed list access to a function. This approach is particularly useful when sequential list-like access to data is required but holding all the data in memory at once is not feasible. The package also provides utilities for memoisation and caching to optimize access to frequently requested elements.

Doubly robust average partial effect estimation. This implementation contains methods for adding additional smoothness to plug-in regression procedures and for estimating score functions using smoothing splines. Details of the method can be found in Harvey Klyne and Rajen D. Shah (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2308.09207>.

This package provides statistical tests and support functions for detecting irregular digit patterns in numerical data. The package includes tools for extracting digits at various locations in a number, tests for repeated values, and (Bayesian) tests of digit distributions.

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 framework for the replicable removal of personally identifiable data (PID) in data sets. The package implements a suite of methods to suit different data types based on the suggestions of Garfinkel (2015) <doi:10.6028/NIST.IR.8053> and the ICO "Guidelines on Anonymization" (2012) <https://ico.org.uk/media/1061/anonymisation-code.pdf>.

Three global value chain (GVC) decompositions are implemented. The Leontief decomposition derives the value added origin of exports by country and industry as in Hummels, Ishii and Yi (2001). The Koopman, Wang and Wei (2014) decomposition splits country-level exports into 9 value added components, and the Wang, Wei and Zhu (2013) decomposition splits bilateral exports into 16 value added components. Various GVC indicators based on these decompositions are computed in the complimentary gvc package. --- References: --- Hummels, D., Ishii, J., & Yi, K. M. (2001).

This package creates a Dumbbell Plot.

Estimation of DIFferential COexpressed NETworks using diverse and user metrics. This package is basically used for three functions related to the estimation of differential coexpression. First, to estimate differential coexpression where the coexpression is estimated, by default, by Spearman correlation. For this, a metric to compare two correlation distributions is needed. The package includes 6 metrics. Some of them needs a threshold. A new metric can also be specified as a user function with specific parameters (see difconet.run). The significance is be estimated by permutations. Second, to generate datasets with controlled differential correlation data. This is done by either adding noise, or adding specific correlation structure. Third, to show the results of differential correlation analyses. Please see <http://bioinformatica.mty.itesm.mx/difconet> for further information.

This package provides convenient methods for accessing the data in dist objects with minimal memory and computational overhead. disttools can be used to extract the distance between any pair or combination of points encoded by a dist object using only the indices of those points. This is an improvement over existing functionality, which requires either coercing a dist object into a matrix or calculating the one dimensional index corresponding to a pair of observations. Coercion to a matrix is undesirable because doing so doubles the amount of memory required for storage. In contrast, there is no inherent downside to the latter solution. However, in part due to several edge cases, correctly and efficiently implementing such a solution can be challenging. disttools abstracts away these challenges and provides a simple interface to access the data in a dist object using the latter approach.
