An implementation of data analytic methods in R for analyses for data with ceiling/floor effects. The package currently includes functions for mean/variance estimation and mean comparison tests. Implemented methods are from Aitkin (1964) <doi:10.1007/BF02289723> and Liu & Wang (in prep).

This package provides external JAR dependencies for the DatabaseConnector package.

S4 classes around infrastructure provided by the coda and dclone packages to make package development easy as a breeze with data cloning for hierarchical models.

Calculates distances from point locations to features. The usual approach for eg. resource selection function analyses is to generate a complete distance to features surface then sample it with your observed and random points. Since these raster based approaches can be pretty costly with large areas, and often lead to memory issues in R, the distanceto package opts to compute these distances using efficient, vector based approaches. As a helper, there's a decidedly low-res raster based approach for visually inspecting your region's distance surface. But the workhorse is distance_to.

The dfmirroR package allows users to input a data frame, simulate some number of observations based on specified columns of that data frame, and then outputs a string that contains the code to re-create the simulation. The goal is to both provide workable test data sets and provide users with the information they need to set up reproducible examples with team members. This package was created out of a need to share examples in cases where data are private and where a full data frame is not needed for testing or coordinating.

Creating dendrochronological networks based on the similarity between tree-ring series or chronologies. The package includes various functions to compare tree-ring curves building upon the dplR package. The networks can be used to visualise and understand the relations between tree-ring curves. These networks are also very useful to estimate the provenance of wood as described in Visser (2021) <DOI:10.5334/jcaa.79> or wood-use within a structure/context/site as described in Visser and Vorst (2022) <DOI:10.1163/27723194-bja10014>.

Diagnostic tools for auditing data analysis workflows built on data.table'. Provides functions to validate join operations, compare data.tables, filter with diagnostic output, summarize data quality, check primary keys and variable relationships, and diagnose string columns. Designed to help analysts understand and document data transformations.

Statistical methods and related graphical representations for the Desirability of Outcome Ranking (DOOR) methodology. The DOOR is a paradigm for the design, analysis, interpretation of clinical trials and other research studies based on the patient centric benefit risk evaluation. The package provides functions for generating summary statistics from individual level/summary level datasets, conduct DOOR probability-based inference, and visualization of the results. For more details of DOOR methodology, see Hamasaki and Evans (2025) <doi:10.1201/9781003390855>. For more explanation of the statistical methods and the graphics, see the technical document and user manual of the DOOR Shiny apps at <https://methods.bsc.gwu.edu>.

Non-iterative estimator for the cumulative distribution of a doubly truncated variable. de Uña-à lvarez J. (2018) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-73848-2_37>.

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

Allows the computation of clustering coefficients for directed and weighted networks by using different approaches. It allows to compute clustering coefficients that are not present in igraph package. A description of clustering coefficients can be found in "Directed clustering in weighted networks: a new perspective", Clemente, G.P., Grassi, R. (2017), <doi:10.1016/j.chaos.2017.12.007>.

We offer an implementation of the series representation put forth in "A series representation for multidimensional Rayleigh distributions" by Wiegand and Nadarajah <DOI: 10.1002/dac.3510>. Furthermore we have implemented an integration approach proposed by Beaulieu et al. for 3 and 4-dimensional Rayleigh densities (Beaulieu, Zhang, "New simplest exact forms for the 3D and 4D multivariate Rayleigh PDFs with applications to antenna array geometrics", <DOI: 10.1109/TCOMM.2017.2709307>).

Fits Gaussian Mixtures by applying evolution. As fitness function a mixture of the chi square test for distributions and a novel measure for approximating the common area under curves between multiple Gaussians is used. The package presents an alternative to the commonly used Likelihood Maximization as is used in Expectation Maximization. The algorithm and applications of this package are published under: Lerch, F., Ultsch, A., Lotsch, J. (2020) <doi:10.1038/s41598-020-57432-w>. The evolution is based on the GA package: Scrucca, L. (2013) <doi:10.18637/jss.v053.i04> while the Gaussian Mixture Logic stems from AdaptGauss': Ultsch, A, et al. (2015) <doi:10.3390/ijms161025897>.

DECORATE (Diverse Ensemble Creation by Oppositional Relabeling of Artificial Training Examples) builds an ensemble of J48 trees by recursively adding artificial samples of the training data ("Melville, P., & Mooney, R. J. (2005) <DOI:10.1016/j.inffus.2004.04.001>").

Develop and evaluate treatment rules based on: (1) the standard indirect approach of split-regression, which fits regressions separately in both treatment groups and assigns an individual to the treatment option under which predicted outcome is more desirable; (2) the direct approach of outcome-weighted-learning proposed by Yingqi Zhao, Donglin Zeng, A. John Rush, and Michael Kosorok (2012) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2012.695674>; (3) the direct approach, which we refer to as direct-interactions, proposed by Shuai Chen, Lu Tian, Tianxi Cai, and Menggang Yu (2017) <doi:10.1111/biom.12676>. Please see the vignette for a walk-through of how to start with an observational dataset whose design is understood scientifically and end up with a treatment rule that is trustworthy statistically, along with an estimation of rule benefit in an independent sample.

This package provides an operator for assigning nested components of a list to names via a concise pattern matching syntax. This is especially convenient for assigning individual names to the multiple values that a function may return in the form of a list, and for extracting deeply nested list components.

This package contains a single function dclust() for divisive hierarchical clustering based on recursive k-means partitioning (k = 2). Useful for clustering large datasets where computation of a n x n distance matrix is not feasible (e.g. n > 10,000 records). For further information see Steinbach, Karypis and Kumar (2000) <http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/fetch/papers/docclusterKDDTMW00.pdf>.

This package provides a domain-specific language for specifying translating recursions into dynamic-programming algorithms. See <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_programming> for a description of dynamic programming.

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>.

This package provides statistical tools for analyzing net and relative survival, with a key feature of relaxing the assumption of independent censoring and incorporating the effect of dependent competing risks. It employs a copula-based methodology, specifically the Archimedean copula, to simulate data, conduct survival analysis, and offer comparisons with other methods. This approach is detailed in the work of Adatorwovor et al. (2022) <doi:10.1515/ijb-2021-0016>.

This package provides density, distribution function, quantile function and random generation for the split normal and split-t distributions, and computes their mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis for the two distributions (Li, F, Villani, M. and Kohn, R. (2010) <doi:10.1016/j.jspi.2010.04.031>).

By systematically aggregating and processing textual reports from earthquakes, floods, storms, wildfires, and other natural disasters, the framework enables a holistic assessment of crisis narratives. Intelligent cleaning and normalization techniques transform raw commentary into structured data, ensuring precise extraction of disaster-specific insights. Collective sentiments of affected communities are quantitatively scored and qualitatively categorized, providing a multifaceted view of societal responses under duress. Interactive geographic maps and temporal charts illustrate the evolution and spatial dispersion of emotional reactions and impact indicators.
