This package provides implementations of computationally efficient maximum likelihood parameter estimation algorithms for models representing linear dynamical systems. Currently, two such algorithms (one offline and one online) are implemented for the single-output cumulative structural equation model with an additive-noise output measurement equation and assumptions of normality and independence. The corresponding scientific papers are referenced in the descriptions of the functions implementing these algorithms.

Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBV) are state variables with dimensions on time, space, and biological organization that document biodiversity change. Freely available ecosystem remote sensing products (ERSP) are downloaded and integrated with data for national or regional domains to derive indicators for EBV in the class ecosystem structure (Pereira et al., 2013) <doi:10.1126/science.1229931>, including horizontal ecosystem extents, fragmentation, and information-theory indices. To process ERSP, users must provide a polygon or geographic administrative data map. Downloadable ERSP include Global Surface Water (Peckel et al., 2016) <doi:10.1038/nature20584>, Forest Change (Hansen et al., 2013) <doi:10.1126/science.1244693>, and Continuous Tree Cover data (Sexton et al., 2013) <doi:10.1080/17538947.2013.786146>.

Framework for building evolutionary algorithms for both single- and multi-objective continuous or discrete optimization problems. A set of predefined evolutionary building blocks and operators is included. Moreover, the user can easily set up custom objective functions, operators, building blocks and representations sticking to few conventions. The package allows both a black-box approach for standard tasks (plug-and-play style) and a much more flexible white-box approach where the evolutionary cycle is written by hand.

Create list comprehensions (and other types of comprehension) similar to those in python', haskell', and other languages. List comprehension in R converts a regular for() loop into a vectorized lapply() function. Support for looping with multiple variables, parallelization, and across non-standard objects included. Package also contains a variety of functions to help with list comprehension.

Simulate and fitting exponential multivariate Hawkes model. This package simulates a multivariate Hawkes model, introduced by Hawkes (1971) <doi:10.2307/2334319>, with an exponential kernel and fits the parameters from the data. Models with the constant parameters, as well as complex dependent structures, can also be simulated and estimated. The estimation is based on the maximum likelihood method, introduced by introduced by Ozaki (1979) <doi:10.1007/BF02480272>, with maxLik package.

This package provides a consistent set of functions for enriching and analyzing sovereign-level economic data. Economists, data scientists, and financial professionals can use the package to add standardized identifiers, demographic and macroeconomic indicators, and derived metrics such as gross domestic product per capita or government expenditure shares.

Fit model for datasets with easy-to-interpret Gaussian process modeling, predict responses for new inputs. The input variables of the datasets can be quantitative, qualitative/categorical or mixed. The output variable of the datasets is a scalar (quantitative). The optimization of the likelihood function can be chosen by the users (see the documentation of EzGP_fit()). The modeling method is published in "EzGP: Easy-to-Interpret Gaussian Process Models for Computer Experiments with Both Quantitative and Qualitative Factors" by Qian Xiao, Abhyuday Mandal, C. Devon Lin, and Xinwei Deng (2022) <doi:10.1137/19M1288462>.

Analyzes and quantifies ecosystem multifunctionality with functions to calculate multifunctionality richness (MFric), multifunctionality divergence (MFdiv), and multifunctionality regularity (MFreg). These indices help assess the relationship between biodiversity and multiple ecosystem functions. For more details, see Byrnes et al. (2014) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.12143> and Chao et al. (2024) <doi:10.1111/ele.14336>.

This package provides a tool for conducting exact parametric regression-based causal mediation analysis of binary outcomes as described in Samoilenko, Blais and Lefebvre (2018) <doi:10.1353/obs.2018.0013>; Samoilenko, Lefebvre (2021) <doi:10.1093/aje/kwab055>; and Samoilenko, Lefebvre (2023) <doi:10.1002/sim.9621>.

This package provides tools and pre-trained Machine Learning [ML] models for calibration of Agent-Based Models [ABMs] built with the R package epiworldR'. Implements methods described in Najafzadehkhoei, Vega Yon, Modenesi, and Meyer (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2509.07013>. Users can automatically calibrate ABMs in seconds with pre-trained ML models, effectively focusing on simulation rather than calibration. Bridges a gap by allowing public health practitioners to run their own ABMs without the advanced technical expertise often required by calibration.

An implementation of multiple-locus association mapping on a genome-wide scale. Eagle can handle inbred and outbred study populations, populations of arbitrary unknown complexity, and data larger than the memory capacity of the computer. Since Eagle is based on linear mixed models, it is best suited to the analysis of data on continuous traits. However, it can tolerate non-normal data. Eagle reports, as its findings, the best set of snp in strongest association with a trait. For users unfamiliar with R, to perform an analysis, run OpenGUI()'. This opens a web browser to the menu-driven user interface for the input of data, and for performing genome-wide analysis.

Conduct numerous exploratory analyses in an instant with a point-and-click interface. With one simple command, this tool launches a Shiny App on the local machine. Drag and drop variables in a data set to categorize them as possible independent, dependent, moderating, or mediating variables. Then run dozens (or hundreds) of analyses instantly to uncover any statistically significant relationships among variables. Any relationship thus uncovered should be tested in follow-up studies. This tool is designed only to facilitate exploratory analyses and should NEVER be used for p-hacking. Many of the functions used in this package are previous versions of functions in the R Packages kim and ezr'. Selected References: Chang et al. (2021) <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=shiny>.
