This package provides a collection of epidemic/network-related tools. Simulates transmission of diseases through contact networks. Performs Bayesian inference on network and epidemic parameters, given epidemic data.

This package provides functions to compute state-specific and marginal life expectancies. The computation is based on a fitted continuous-time multi-state model that includes an absorbing death state; see Van den Hout (2017, ISBN:9781466568402). The fitted multi-state model model should be estimated using the msm package using age as the time-scale.

Conducts sensitivity analyses for unmeasured confounding, selection bias, and measurement error (individually or in combination; VanderWeele & Ding (2017) <doi:10.7326/M16-2607>; Smith & VanderWeele (2019) <doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001032>; VanderWeele & Li (2019) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwz133>; Smith, Mathur, & VanderWeele (2021) <doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001380>). Also conducts sensitivity analyses for unmeasured confounding in meta-analyses (Mathur & VanderWeele (2020a) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1529598>; Mathur & VanderWeele (2020b) <doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001180>) and for additive measures of effect modification (Mathur et al., <doi:10.1093/ije/dyac073>).

Compute a cyclist's Eddington number, including efficiently computing cumulative E over a vector. A cyclist's Eddington number <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Eddington#Eddington_number_for_cycling> is the maximum number satisfying the condition such that a cyclist has ridden E miles or greater on E distinct days. The algorithm in this package is an improvement over the conventional approach because both summary statistics and cumulative statistics can be computed in linear time, since it does not require initial sorting of the data. These functions may also be used for computing h-indices for authors, a metric described by Hirsch (2005) <doi:10.1073/pnas.0507655102>. Both are specific applications of computing the side length of a Durfee square <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durfee_square>.

Replication methods to compute some basic statistic operations (means, standard deviations, frequency tables, percentiles, mean comparisons using weighted effect coding, generalized linear models, and linear multilevel models) in complex survey designs comprising multiple imputed or nested imputed variables and/or a clustered sampling structure which both deserve special procedures at least in estimating standard errors. See the package documentation for a more detailed description along with references.

Emissions are the mass of pollutants released into the atmosphere. Air quality models need emissions data, with spatial and temporal distribution, to represent air pollutant concentrations. This package, eixport, creates inputs for the air quality models WRF-Chem Grell et al (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2005.04.027>, MUNICH Kim et al (2018) <doi:10.5194/gmd-11-611-2018> , BRAMS-SPM Freitas et al (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2005.07.017> and RLINE Snyder et al (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.atmosenv.2013.05.074>. See the eixport website (<https://atmoschem.github.io/eixport/>) for more information, documentations and examples. More details in Ibarra-Espinosa et al (2018) <doi:10.21105/joss.00607>.

Estimates the time-varying reproduction number, rate of spread, and doubling time using a range of open-source tools (Abbott et al. (2020) <doi:10.12688/wellcomeopenres.16006.1>), and current best practices (Gostic et al. (2020) <doi:10.1101/2020.06.18.20134858>). It aims to help users avoid some of the limitations of naive implementations in a framework that is informed by community feedback and is actively supported.

Dynamic and Interactive Maps with R, powered by leaflet <https://leafletjs.com>. evolMap generates a web page with interactive and dynamic maps to which you can add geometric entities (points, lines or colored geographic areas), and/or markers with optional links between them. The dynamic ability of these maps allows their components to evolve over a continuous period of time or by periods.

Predicts enrollment and events at the design or analysis stage using specified enrollment and time-to-event models through simulations.

This software downloads and manages air quality data from the European Environmental Agency (EEA) dataflow (<https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/aqereporting-9>). See the web page <https://eeadmz1-downloads-webapp.azurewebsites.net/> for details on the EEA's Air Quality Download Service. The package allows dynamically mapping the stations, summarising and time aggregating the measurements and building spatial interpolation maps. See the web page <https://www.eea.europa.eu/en> for further information on EEA activities and history. Further details, as well as, an extended vignette of the main functions included in the package, are available at the GitHub web page dedicated to the project.

Miscellaneous functions for data cleaning and data analysis of educational assessments. Includes functions for descriptive analyses, character vector manipulations and weighted statistics. Mainly a lightweight dependency for the packages eatRep', eatGADS', eatPrep and eatModel (which will be subsequently submitted to CRAN'). The function for defining (weighted) contrasts in weighted effect coding refers to te Grotenhuis et al. (2017) <doi:10.1007/s00038-016-0901-1>. Functions for weighted statistics refer to Wolter (2007) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-35099-8>.

Expectile regression is a nice tool for estimating the conditional expectiles of a response variable given a set of covariates. This package implements a regression tree based gradient boosting estimator for nonparametric multiple expectile regression, proposed by Yang, Y., Qian, W. and Zou, H. (2018) <doi:10.1080/00949655.2013.876024>. The code is based on the gbm package originally developed by Greg Ridgeway.

Create causal models for use in epidemiological studies, including sufficient-component cause models as introduced by Rothman (1976) <doi:10.1093/oxfordjournals.aje.a112335>.

This package provides functions to prepare and analyse eye tracking data of reading exercises. The functions allow some basic data preparations and code fixations as first and second pass. First passes can be further devided into forward and reading. The package further allows for aggregating fixation times per AOI or per AOI and per type of pass (first forward, first rereading, second). These methods are based on Hyönä, Lorch, and Rinck (2003) <doi:10.1016/B978-044451020-4/50018-9> and Hyönä, and Lorch (2004) <doi:10.1016/j.learninstruc.2004.01.001>. It is also possible to convert between metric length and visual degrees.

This package contains a set of clustering methods and evaluation metrics to select the best number of the clusters based on clustering stability. Two references describe the methodology: Fahimeh Nezhadmoghadam, and Jose Tamez-Pena (2021)<doi:10.1016/j.compbiomed.2021.104753>, and Fahimeh Nezhadmoghadam, et al.(2021)<doi:10.2174/1567205018666210831145825>.

This package implements the exponential Factor Copula Model (eFCM) of Castro-Camilo, D. and Huser, R. (2020) for spatial extremes, with tools for dependence estimation, tail inference, and visualization. The package supports likelihood-based inference, Gaussian process modeling via Matérn covariance functions, and bootstrap uncertainty quantification. See Castro-Camilo and Huser (2020) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2019.1647842>.

Enhanced False Discovery Rate (EFDR) is a tool to detect anomalies in an image. The image is first transformed into the wavelet domain in order to decorrelate any noise components, following which the coefficients at each resolution are standardised. Statistical tests (in a multiple hypothesis testing setting) are then carried out to find the anomalies. The power of EFDR exceeds that of standard FDR, which would carry out tests on every wavelet coefficient: EFDR choose which wavelets to test based on a criterion described in Shen et al. (2002). The package also provides elementary tools to interpolate spatially irregular data onto a grid of the required size. The work is based on Shen, X., Huang, H.-C., and Cressie, N. Nonparametric hypothesis testing for a spatial signal. Journal of the American Statistical Association 97.460 (2002): 1122-1140.

This package implements the Ebrahim-Farrington goodness-of-fit test for logistic regression models, particularly effective for sparse data and binary outcomes. This test provides an improved alternative to the traditional Hosmer-Lemeshow test by using a modified Pearson chi-square statistic with data-dependent grouping. The test is based on Farrington (1996) theoretical framework but simplified for practical implementation with binary data. Includes functions for both the original Farrington test (for grouped data) and the new Ebrahim-Farrington test (for binary data with automatic grouping). For more details see Hosmer (1980) <doi:10.1080/03610928008827941> and Farrington (1996) <doi:10.1111/j.2517-6161.1996.tb02086.x>.

Likelihood-based approaches to estimate linear regression parameters and treatment effects in the presence of endogeneity. Specifically, this package includes James Heckman's classical simultaneous equation models-the sample selection model for outcome selection bias and hybrid model with structural shift for endogenous treatment. For more information, see the seminal paper of Heckman (1978) <DOI:10.3386/w0177> in which the details of these models are provided. This package accommodates repeated measures on subjects with a working independence approach. The hybrid model further accommodates treatment effect modification.

This package provides functions for the Bayesian analysis of extreme value models, using Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. Allows the construction of both uninformative and informed prior distributions for common statistical models applied to extreme event data, including the generalized extreme value distribution.
