(2013) <doi:10.1111/1365-2664.12041>, and Dooley et al. (2015) <doi:10.1111/ele.12504>.

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.

Summarise patient-level drug utilisation cohorts using data mapped to the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) common data model. New users and prevalent users cohorts can be generated and their characteristics, indication and drug use summarised.

S4-distribution classes based on package distr for distributions from packages fBasics and fGarch'.

Probability mass function, distribution function, quantile function, random generation and estimation for the skew discrete Laplace distributions.

Attempt to repair inconsistencies and missing values in data records by using information from valid values and validation rules restricting the data.

Generalised model for population dynamics of invasive Aedes mosquitoes. Rationale and model structure are described here: Da Re et al. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.ecoinf.2020.101180> and Da Re et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2021.12.21.473628>.

Joint dimension reduction and spatial clustering is conducted for Single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics data, and more details can be referred to Wei Liu, Xu Liao, Yi Yang, Huazhen Lin, Joe Yeong, Xiang Zhou, Xingjie Shi and Jin Liu. (2022) <doi:10.1093/nar/gkac219>. It is not only computationally efficient and scalable to the sample size increment, but also is capable of choosing the smoothness parameter and the number of clusters as well.

Offers robust tools to identify and manage incomplete responses in survey datasets, thereby enhancing the quality and reliability of research findings.

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).

This package provides a system for extracting news from Chilean media, specifically through Web Scapping from Chilean media. The package allows for news searches using search phrases and date filters, and returns the results in a structured format, ready for analysis. Additionally, it includes functions to clean the extracted data, visualize it, and store it in databases. All of this can be done automatically, facilitating the collection and analysis of relevant information from Chilean media.

This package performs calculations with tree taper (or stem profile) equations, including model fitting. The package implements the methods from Garcà a, O. (2015) "Dynamic modelling of tree form" <http://mcfns.net/index.php/Journal/article/view/MCFNS7.1_2>. The models are parsimonious, describe well the tree bole shape over its full length, and are consistent with wood formation mechanisms through time.

By adding over-relaxation factor to PXEM (Parameter Expanded Expectation Maximization) method, the MOPXEM (Monotonically Overrelaxed Parameter Expanded Expectation Maximization) method is obtained. Compare it with the existing EM (Expectation-Maximization)-like methods. Then, distribute and process five methods and compare them, achieving good performance in convergence speed and result quality.The philosophy of the package is described in Guo G. (2022) <doi:10.1007/s00180-022-01270-z>.

Fast computation of the distance covariance dcov and distance correlation dcor'. The computation cost is only O(n log(n)) for the distance correlation (see Chaudhuri, Hu (2019) <arXiv:1810.11332> <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2019.01.016>). The functions are written entirely in C++ to speed up the computation.

Have you ever been tempted to create roxygen2'-style documentation comments for one of your functions that was not part of one of your packages (yet)? This is exactly what this package is about: running roxygen2 on (chunks of) a single code file.

Offers functionality which provides methods for data analyses and cleaning that can be flexibly applied across multiple variables and in groups. These include cleaning accidental text, contingent calculations, counting missing data, and building summarizations of the data.
