Easily perform a Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate the cost and carbon, ecological, and water footprints of a set of ideal diets. Pre-processing tools are also available to quickly treat the data, along with basic statistical features to analyze the simulation results â including the ability to establish confidence intervals for selected parameters, such as nutrients and price/emissions. A standard version of the datasets employed is included as well, allowing users easy access to customization. This package brings to R the Python software initially developed by Vandevijvere, Young, Mackay, Swinburn and Gahegan (2018) <doi:10.1186/s12966-018-0648-6>.

Tailored explicitly for Experience Sampling Method (ESM) data, it contains a suite of functions designed to simplify preprocessing steps and create subsequent reporting. It empowers users with capabilities to extract critical insights during preprocessing, conducts thorough data quality assessments (e.g., design and sampling scheme checks, compliance rate, careless responses), and generates visualizations and concise summary tables tailored specifically for ESM data. Additionally, it streamlines the creation of informative and interactive preprocessing reports, enabling researchers to transparently share their dataset preprocessing methodologies. Finally, it is part of a larger ecosystem which includes a framework and a web gallery (<https://preprocess.esmtools.com/>).

Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data by Guescini et al. (2008) <doi:10.1186/1471-2105-9-326> in tidy format. This package provides two data sets where the amplification efficiency has been modulated: either by changing the amplification mix concentration, or by increasing the concentration of IgG, a PCR inhibitor. Original raw data files: <https://static-content.springer.com/esm/art%3A10.1186%2F1471-2105-9-326/MediaObjects/12859_2008_2311_MOESM1_ESM.xls> and <https://static-content.springer.com/esm/art%3A10.1186%2F1471-2105-9-326/MediaObjects/12859_2008_2311_MOESM5_ESM.xls>.

Characterisation and calibration of single or multiple Ion Selective Electrodes (ISEs); activity estimation of experimental samples. Implements methods described in: Dillingham, P.W., Radu, T., Diamond, D., Radu, A. and McGraw, C.M. (2012) <doi:10.1002/elan.201100510>, Dillingham, P.W., Alsaedi, B.S.O. and McGraw, C.M. (2017) <doi:10.1109/ICSENS.2017.8233898>, Dillingham, P.W., Alsaedi, B.S.O., Radu, A., and McGraw, C.M. (2019) <doi:10.3390/s19204544>, and Dillingham, P.W., Alsaedi, B.S.O., Granados-Focil, S., Radu, A., and McGraw, C.M. (2020) <doi:10.1021/acssensors.9b02133>.

The sample mean and standard deviation are two commonly used statistics in meta-analyses, but some trials use other summary statistics such as the median and quartiles to report the results. Therefore, researchers need to transform those information back to the sample mean and standard deviation. This package implemented sample mean estimators by Luo et al. (2016) <arXiv:1505.05687>, sample standard deviation estimators by Wan et al. (2014) <arXiv:1407.8038>, and the best linear unbiased estimators (BLUEs) of location and scale parameters by Yang et al. (2018, submitted) based on sample quantiles derived summaries in a meta-analysis.

Researchers often need to calculate body-size growth rates for individuals that do not have associated age data. These growth rates are based on mark-recapture data where an individual was captured and measured at time 1 then recaptured and measured at time 2. The sizes at each time and amount of time between captures can be used to calculate growth rates. MRgrowth follows the approach in Edmonds et al. (2021) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0259978> and provides functions to calculate growth using three formulas, the Faben's reformulation of the von Bertalanffy formula, the Gompertz formula, and a logistic formula.

Nonparametric methods for analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) are distribution-free and provide a flexible statistical framework for situations where the assumptions of parametric ANCOVA are violated or when the response variable is ordinal. This package implements several well-known nonparametric ANCOVA procedures, including Quade, Puri and Sen, McSweeney and Porter, Burnett and Barr, Hettmansperger and McKean, Shirley, and Puri-Sen-Harwell-Serlin. The package provides user-friendly functions to apply these methods in practice. These methods are described in Olejnik et al. (1985) <doi:10.1177/0193841X8500900104> and Harwell et al. (1988) <doi:10.1037/0033-2909.104.2.268>.

The constructs used to study the human psychology have many definitions and corresponding instructions for eliciting and coding qualitative data pertaining to constructs content and for measuring the constructs. This plethora of definitions and instructions necessitates unequivocal reference to specific definitions and instructions in empirical and secondary research. This package implements a human- and machine-readable standard for specifying construct definitions and instructions for measurement and qualitative research based on YAML'. This standard facilitates systematic unequivocal reference to specific construct definitions and corresponding instructions in a decentralized manner (i.e. without requiring central curation; Peters (2020) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/xebhn>).

This package implements variational Bayesian algorithms to perform scalable variable selection for sparse, high-dimensional linear and logistic regression models. Features include a novel prioritized updating scheme, which uses a preliminary estimator of the variational means during initialization to generate an updating order prioritizing large, more relevant, coefficients. Sparsity is induced via spike-and-slab priors with either Laplace or Gaussian slabs. By default, the heavier-tailed Laplace density is used. Formal derivations of the algorithms and asymptotic consistency results may be found in Kolyan Ray and Botond Szabo (JASA 2020) and Kolyan Ray, Botond Szabo, and Gabriel Clara (NeurIPS 2020).

mixOmics offers a wide range of multivariate methods for the exploration and integration of biological datasets with a particular focus on variable selection. The package proposes several sparse multivariate models we have developed to identify the key variables that are highly correlated, and/or explain the biological outcome of interest. The data that can be analysed with mixOmics may come from high throughput sequencing technologies, such as omics data (transcriptomics, metabolomics, proteomics, metagenomics etc) but also beyond the realm of omics (e.g. spectral imaging). The methods implemented in mixOmics can also handle missing values without having to delete entire rows with missing data.

Normalizes a data matrix `data` by raking (using the RAS method by Bacharach, see references) the Nrows by Ncols matrix such that the row means and column means equal 1. The result is a normalized data matrix `K=RAS`, a product of row mulipliers `R` and column multipliers `S` with the original matrix `A`. Missing information needs to be presented as `NA` values and not as zero values, because CONSTANd is able to ignore missing values when calculating the mean. Using CONSTANd normalization allows for the direct comparison of values between samples within the same and even across different CONSTANd-normalized data matrices.

This package implements Random Forest regression under the Arvind distribution error model. Provides core distribution functions (density, cumulative distribution, quantile, random generation, hazard, survival), parameter estimation via Expectation-Maximization (EM) and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), non-parametric bootstrap confidence intervals (at 90%, 95%, and 99% levels), Highest Posterior Density (HPD) intervals, model evaluation metrics (estimated values, bias, mean squared error, risk value), homoscedastic prediction intervals, and goodness-of-fit diagnostic tests (Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Anderson-Darling tests, Akaike Information Criterion, and Bayesian Information Criterion). References: Breiman (2001) <doi:10.1023/A:1010933404324>; Wright and Ziegler (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v077.i01>.

Fits Bayesian state-space models for count time series using a latent log-rate (Poisson), latent logit (binomial) or latent additive-log-ratio (multinomial choice counts) formulation. Each latent trajectory follows a first-order random walk or a stationary AR(1) process and is sampled by Metropolis-within-Gibbs using the implied Gaussian Markov random field full conditionals. The latent increments can be Gaussian, Student-t, a finite scale mixture of normals, or follow a stochastic volatility process, and the Poisson and binomial families support zero inflation. It implements and extends the methodology of Zens and Bijak (2026) <doi:10.1214/26-AOAS2171>.

This package provides diagnostic graphic tools for GLMs, beta-binomial regression model (estimated by VGAM package), beta regression model (estimated by betareg package) and negative binomial regression model (estimated by MASS package). Since most of functions implemented in glmxdiag already exist in other packages, the aim is to provide the user unique functions that work on almost all regression models previously specified. Details about some of the implemented functions can be found in Brown (1992) <doi:10.2307/2347617>, Dunn and Smyth (1996) <doi:10.2307/1390802>, O'Hara Hines and Carter (1993) <doi:10.2307/2347405>, Wang (1985) <doi:10.2307/1269708>.

With the deprecation of mocking capabilities shipped with testthat as of edition 3 it is left to third-party packages to replace this functionality, which in some test-scenarios is essential in order to run unit tests in limited environments (such as no Internet connection). Mocking in this setting means temporarily substituting a function with a stub that acts in some sense like the original function (for example by serving a HTTP response that has been cached as a file). The only exported function with_mock() is modeled after the eponymous testthat function with the intention of providing a drop-in replacement.

Estimation, inference, bandwidth selection, and graphical procedures for kernel density and local polynomial regression methods, including robust bias-corrected confidence intervals as described in Calonico, Cattaneo and Farrell (2018, <doi:10.1080/01621459.2017.1285776>). The package includes lprobust() for local polynomial point estimation and robust bias-corrected inference, lpbwselect() for local polynomial bandwidth selection, kdrobust() for kernel density point estimation and robust bias-corrected inference, kdbwselect() for kernel density bandwidth selection, and nprobust.plot() for plotting results. The main methodological and numerical features are described in Calonico, Cattaneo and Farrell (2019, <doi:10.18637/jss.v091.i08>).

This package provides functions for making run charts [Anhoej, Olesen (2014) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0113825>] and basic Shewhart control charts [Mohammed, Worthington, Woodall (2008) <doi:10.1136/qshc.2004.012047>] for measure and count data. The main function, qic(), creates run and control charts and has a simple interface with a rich set of options to control data analysis and plotting, including options for automatic data aggregation by subgroups, easy analysis of before-and-after data, exclusion of one or more data points from analysis, and splitting charts into sequential time periods. Missing values and empty subgroups are handled gracefully.

Recently, regularized variable selection has emerged as a powerful tool to identify and dissect gene-environment interactions. Nevertheless, in longitudinal studies with high dimensional genetic factors, regularization methods for GÃ E interactions have not been systematically developed. In this package, we provide the implementation of sparse group variable selection, based on both the quadratic inference function (QIF) and generalized estimating equation (GEE), to accommodate the bi-level selection for longitudinal GÃ E studies with high dimensional genomic features. Alternative methods conducting only the group or individual level selection have also been included. The core modules of the package have been developed in C++.

Data from statistical agencies and other institutions are mostly confidential. This package, introduced in Templ, Kowarik and Meindl (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v067.i04>, can be used for the generation of anonymized (micro)data, i.e. for the creation of public- and scientific-use files. The theoretical basis for the methods implemented can be found in Templ (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-50272-4>. Various risk estimation and anonymization methods are included. Note that the package includes a graphical user interface published in Meindl and Templ (2019) <doi:10.3390/a12090191> that allows to use various methods of this package.

Computes distances between taxonomic hierarchy nodes using lineage data retrieved from The Taxonomicon <http://taxonomicon.taxonomy.nl>. For distinct nodes, distance is defined as the reciprocal of the depth of their most recent common ancestor; identical nodes have distance zero. This definition yields an ultrametric within each connected hierarchy. Functions are provided for auditable name resolution, online or user-supplied lineage analysis, clade membership, pairwise and matrix distance calculation, hierarchical clustering, principal coordinates analysis, portable JSON analysis bundles, and cache management. Distance matrices are returned as base R dist objects. The distances represent classification depth rather than evolutionary time or phylogenetic branch length.

This package provides utilities to create and use lenses to simplify data manipulation. Lenses are composable getter/setter pairs that provide a functional approach to manipulating deeply nested data structures, e.g., elements within list columns in data frames. The implementation is based on the earlier lenses R package <https://github.com/cfhammill/lenses>, which was inspired by the Haskell lens package by Kmett (2012) <https://github.com/ekmett/lens>, one of the most widely referenced implementations of lenses. For additional background and history on the theory of lenses, see the lens package wiki: <https://github.com/ekmett/lens/wiki/History-of-Lenses>.

Implementation of the nonparametric bounds for the average causal effect under an instrumental variable model by Balke and Pearl (Bounds on Treatment Effects from Studies with Imperfect Compliance, JASA, 1997, 92, 439, 1171-1176, <doi:10.1080/01621459.1997.10474074>). The package can calculate bounds for a binary outcome, a binary treatment/phenotype, and an instrument with either 2 or 3 categories. The package implements bounds for situations where these 3 variables are measured in the same dataset (trivariate data) or where the outcome and instrument are measured in one study and the treatment/phenotype and instrument are measured in another study (bivariate data).

The DImodels package is suitable for analysing data from biodiversity and ecosystem function studies using the Diversity-Interactions (DI) modelling approach introduced by Kirwan et al. (2009) <doi:10.1890/08-1684.1>. Suitable data will contain proportions for each species and a community-level response variable, and may also include additional factors, such as blocks or treatments. The package can perform data manipulation tasks, such as computing pairwise interactions (the DI_data() function), can perform an automated model selection process (the autoDI() function) and has the flexibility to fit a wide range of user-defined DI models (the DI() function).

This package provides fast, in-memory reading of DATASUS DBC files using native C code, along with a catalog of public health data sources, FTP file discovery, caching downloads, and a high-level datasus_fetch() function that lists, downloads, and reads files in a single call. Bundles the blast decompressor from zlib contrib/blast to decode PKWare DCL compressed DBC files and parses DBF records directly for efficient import into tibbles. See the DATASUS file transfer site <https://datasus.saude.gov.br> and Adler (2003) <https://github.com/madler/zlib/tree/master/contrib/blast> for details on the underlying data and compression format.
