This package provides a system designed for detecting concept drift in streaming datasets. It offers a comprehensive suite of statistical methods to detect concept drift, including methods for monitoring changes in data distributions over time. The package supports several tests, such as Drift Detection Method (DDM), Early Drift Detection Method (EDDM), Hoeffding Drift Detection Methods (HDDM_A, HDDM_W), Kolmogorov-Smirnov test-based Windowing (KSWIN), Adaptive WINdowing (ADWIN) and Page Hinkley (PH) tests. The methods implemented in this package are based on established research and have been demonstrated to be effective in real-time data analysis.

It generates summary statistics on the input dataset using different descriptive univariate statistical measures on entire data or at a group level. Though there are other packages which does similar job but each of these are deficient in one form or other, in the measures generated, in treating numeric, character and date variables alike, no functionality to view these measures on a group level or the way the output is represented. Given the foremost role of the descriptive statistics in any of the exploratory data analysis or solution development, there is a need for a more constructive, structured and refined version over these packages. This is the idea behind the package and it brings together all the required descriptive measures to give an initial understanding of the data quality, distribution in a faster,easier and elaborative way.The function brings an additional capability to be able to generate these statistical measures on the entire dataset or at a group level. It calculates measures of central tendency (mean, median), distribution (count, proportion), dispersion (min, max, quantile, standard deviation, variance) and shape (skewness, kurtosis). Addition to these measures, it provides information on the data type, count on no. of rows, unique entries and percentage of missing entries. More importantly the measures are generated based on the data types as required by them,rather than applying numerical measures on character and data variables and vice versa. Output as a dataframe object gives a very neat representation, which often is useful when working with a large number of columns. It can easily be exported as csv and analyzed further or presented as a summary report for the data.

Distributed Online Mean Tests is a powerful tool designed to efficiently process and analyze distributed datasets. It enables users to perform mean tests in an online, distributed manner, making it highly suitable for large-scale data analysis. By leveraging advanced computational techniques, Domean ensures robust and scalable solutions for statistical analysis, particularly in scenarios where data is dispersed across multiple nodes or sources. This package is ideal for researchers and practitioners working with high-dimensional data, providing a flexible and efficient framework for mean testing. The philosophy of Domean is described in Guo G.(2025) <doi:10.1016/j.physa.2024.130308>.

In tumor tissue, underlying genomic instability can lead to DNA copy number alterations, e.g., copy number gains or losses. Sporadic copy number alterations occur randomly throughout the genome, whereas recurrent alterations are observed in the same genomic region across multiple independent samples, perhaps because they provide a selective growth advantage. This package implements the DiNAMIC procedure for assessing the statistical significance of recurrent DNA copy number aberrations (Bioinformatics (2011) 27(5) 678 - 685).

This package implements Design-Robust Meta-Analysis (DR-Meta), a variance-function random-effects framework in which between-study heterogeneity is modelled as a function of a study-level design robustness index, allowing heterogeneity to depend systematically on study quality or design strength rather than being treated as a single nuisance parameter. The package provides profiled restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimation of the overall effect and variance-function parameters, study-specific weights, heterogeneity diagnostics (tau-squared, I-squared), influence and leave-one-out analysis, and graphical tools including forest plots and influence plots. The DR-Meta framework nests classical fixed-effects and standard random-effects meta-analysis as special cases, making it a strict generalisation of existing approaches.

It provides the subset operator for dist objects and a function to compute medoid(s) that are fully parallelized leveraging the RcppParallel package. It also provides functions for package developers to easily implement their own parallelized dist() function using a custom C++'-based distance function.

This package provides read and write access to data and metadata from the DataONE network <https://www.dataone.org> of data repositories. Each DataONE repository implements a consistent repository application programming interface. Users call methods in R to access these remote repository functions, such as methods to query the metadata catalog, get access to metadata for particular data packages, and read the data objects from the data repository. Users can also insert and update data objects on repositories that support these methods.

Detection of runs of homozygosity and of heterozygosity in diploid genomes using two methods: sliding windows (Purcell et al (2007) <doi:10.1086/519795>) and consecutive runs (Marras et al (2015) <doi:10.1111/age.12259>).

Area under the curve (AUC; Myerson et al., 2001) <doi:10.1901/jeab.2001.76-235> is a popular measure used in discounting research. Although the calculation of AUC is standardized, there are differences in AUC based on some assumptions. For example, Myerson et al. (2001) <doi:10.1901/jeab.2001.76-235> assumed that (with delay discounting data) a researcher would impute an indifference point at zero delay equal to the value of the larger, later outcome. However, this practice is not clearly followed. This imputed zero-delay indifference point plays an important role in log and ordinal versions of AUC. Ordinal and log versions of AUC are described by Borges et al. (2016)<doi:10.1002/jeab.219>. The package can calculate all three versions of AUC [and includes a new version: IHS(AUC)], impute indifference points when x = 0, calculate ordinal AUC in the case of Halton sampling of x-values, and account for probability discounting AUC.

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.".

Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are a formal foundation for making probabilistic models of linear sequence. They provide a conceptual toolkit for building complex models just by drawing an intuitive picture. They are at the heart of a diverse range of programs, including genefinding, profile searches, multiple sequence alignment and regulatory site identification. HMMs are the Legos of computational sequence analysis. In graph theory, a tree is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by exactly one path, or equivalently a connected acyclic undirected graph. Tree represents the nodes connected by edges. It is a non-linear data structure. A poly-tree is simply a directed acyclic graph whose underlying undirected graph is a tree. The model proposed in this package is the same as an HMM but where the states are linked via a polytree structure rather than a simple path.
