This package provides a collection of functions that have been developed to assist experimenter in modeling chemical degradation kinetic data. The selection of the appropriate degradation model and parameter estimation is carried out automatically as far as possible and is driven by a rigorous statistical interpretation of the results. The package integrates already available goodness-of-fit statistics for nonlinear models. In addition it allows data fitting with the nonlinear first-order multi-target (FOMT) model.

This package provides estimation procedures for copula-based stochastic frontier quantile models for cross-sectional data. The package implements maximum likelihood estimation of quantile regression models allowing flexible dependence structures between error components through various copula families (e.g., Gaussian and Student-t). It enables estimation of conditional quantile effects, dependence parameters, log-likelihood values, and information criteria (AIC and BIC). The framework combines quantile regression methodology introduced by Koenker and Bassett (1978) <doi:10.2307/1913643> with copula theory described in Joe (2014, ISBN:9781466583221). This approach allows modeling heterogeneous effects across quantiles while capturing nonlinear dependence structures between variables.

Download, cache and read municipality-level address data from the Cadastro Nacional de Enderecos para Fins Estatisticos (CNEFE) of the 2022 Brazilian Census, published by the Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatistica (IBGE) <https://ftp.ibge.gov.br/Cadastro_Nacional_de_Enderecos_para_Fins_Estatisticos/>.

Results can be produced on H3 hexagonal grids or user-supplied polygons, and heavy operations leverage a DuckDB backend with extensions for fast, in-process execution.

The Concordance Test is a non-parametric method for testing whether two o more samples originate from the same distribution. It extends the Kendall Tau correlation coefficient when there are only two groups. For details, see Alcaraz J., Anton-Sanchez L., Monge J.F. (2022) The Concordance Test, an Alternative to Kruskal-Wallis Based on the Kendall-tau Distance: An R Package. The R Journal 14, 26â 53 <doi:10.32614/RJ-2022-039>.

Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega are widely used reliability or internal consistency measures in social, behavioral and education sciences. Alpha is reported in nearly every study that involves measuring a construct through multiple test items. The package coefficientalpha calculates coefficient alpha and coefficient omega with missing data and non-normal data. Robust standard errors and confidence intervals are also provided. A test is also available to test the tau-equivalent and homogeneous assumptions. Since Version 0.5, the bootstrap confidence intervals were added.

Fits convolution-based nonstationary Gaussian process models to point-referenced spatial data. The nonstationary covariance function allows the user to specify the underlying correlation structure and which spatial dependence parameters should be allowed to vary over space: the anisotropy, nugget variance, and process variance. The parameters are estimated via maximum likelihood, using a local likelihood approach. Also provided are functions to fit stationary spatial models for comparison, calculate the Kriging predictor and standard errors, and create various plots to visualize nonstationarity.
