This tree-based method deals with high dimensional longitudinal data with correlated features through the use of a piecewise random effect model. FREE tree also exploits the network structure of the features, by first clustering them using Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis ('WGCNA'). It then conducts a screening step within each cluster of features and a selecting step among the surviving features, which provides a relatively unbiased way to do feature selection. By using dominant principle components as regression variables at each leaf and the original features as splitting variables at splitting nodes, FREE tree delivers easily interpretable results while improving computational efficiency.

All data sets required for the examples and exercises in the book "Forecasting: principles and practice" (2nd ed, 2018) by Rob J Hyndman and George Athanasopoulos <https://otexts.com/fpp2/>. All packages required to run the examples are also loaded.

Converts vectors of numbers into character vectors of numerals, including cardinals (one, two, three) and ordinals (first, second, third). Supports negative numbers, fractions, and arbitrary-precision integer and high-precision floating-point vectors provided by the bignum package.

The Forecast Linear Augmented Projection (flap) method reduces forecast variance by adjusting the forecasts of multivariate time series to be consistent with the forecasts of linear combinations (components) of the series by projecting all forecasts onto the space where the linear constraints are satisfied. The forecast variance can be reduced monotonically by including more components. For a given number of components, the flap method achieves maximum forecast variance reduction among linear projections.

This package provides functions for performing (external) multidimensional unfolding. Restrictions (fixed coordinates or model restrictions) are available for both row and column coordinates in all combinations.

This package performs functional regression, and some related approaches, for intensive longitudinal data (see the book by Walls & Schafer, 2006, Models for Intensive Longitudinal Data, Oxford) when such data is not necessarily observed on an equally spaced grid of times. The approach generally follows the ideas of Goldsmith, Bobb, Crainiceanu, Caffo, and Reich (2011)<DOI:10.1198/jcgs.2010.10007> and the approach taken in their sample code, but with some modifications to make it more feasible to use with long rather than wide, non-rectangular longitudinal datasets with unequal and potentially random measurement times. It also allows easy plotting of the correlation between the smoothed covariate and the outcome as a function of time, which can add additional insights on how to interpret a functional regression. Additionally, it also provides several permutation tests for the significance of the functional predictor. The heuristic interpretation of ``time is used to describe the index of the functional predictor, but the same methods can equally be used for another unidimensional continuous index, such as space along a north-south axis. Note that most of the functionality of this package has been superseded by added features after 2016 in the pfr function by Jonathan Gellar, Mathew W. McLean, Jeff Goldsmith, and Fabian Scheipl, in the refund package built by Jeff Goldsmith and co-authors and maintained by Julia Wrobel. The development of the funreg package in 2015 and 2016 was part of a research project supported by Award R03 CA171809-01 from the National Cancer Institute and Award P50 DA010075 from the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

Useful functions to translate text for multiple languages using online translators. For example, by translating error messages and descriptive analysis results into a language familiar to the user, it enables a better understanding of the information, thereby reducing the barriers caused by language. It offers several helper functions to query gene information to help interpretation of interested genes (e.g., marker genes, differential expression genes), and provides utilities to translate ggplot graphics. This package is not affiliated with any of the online translators. The developers do not take responsibility for the invoice it incurs when using this package, especially for exceeding the free quota.

This package provides tools for describing and analysing free sorting data. Main methods are computation of consensus partition and factorial analysis of the dissimilarity matrix between stimuli (using multidimensional scaling approach).

Include assessing site classes based on the stand height growth and establishing a nonlinear mixed-effect biomass model under different site classes based on the whole stand model to achieve more accurate estimation of carbon sequestration. In particular, a carbon sequestration potential productivity calculation method based on the potential mean annual increment is proposed. This package is applicable to both natural forests and plantations. It can quantitatively assess standâ s potential productivity, realized productivity, and possible improvement under certain site, and can be used in many aspects such as site quality assessment, tree species suitability evaluation, and forest degradation evaluation.

Offers a set of tools for visualizing and analyzing size and power properties of the test for equal predictive accuracy, the Diebold-Mariano test that is based on heteroskedasticity and autocorrelation-robust (HAR) inference. A typical HAR inference is involved with non-parametric estimation of the long-run variance, and one of its tuning parameters, the truncation parameter, trades off a size and power. Lazarus, Lewis, and Stock (2021)<doi:10.3982/ECTA15404> theoretically characterize the size-power frontier for the Gaussian multivariate location model. ForeComp computes and visualizes the finite-sample size-power frontier of the Diebold-Mariano test based on fixed-b asymptotics together with the Bartlett kernel. To compute the finite-sample size and power, it works with the best approximating ARMA process to the given dataset. It informs the user how their choice of the truncation parameter performs and how robust the testing outcomes are.

Fuzzy string matching implementation of the fuzzywuzzy <https://github.com/seatgeek/fuzzywuzzy> python package. It uses the Levenshtein Distance <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levenshtein_distance> to calculate the differences between sequences.

TrainFastImputation() uses training data to describe a multivariate normal distribution that the data approximates or can be transformed into approximating and stores this information as an object of class FastImputationPatterns'. FastImputation() function uses this FastImputationPatterns object to impute (make a good guess at) missing data in a single line or a whole data frame of data. This approximates the process used by Amelia <https://gking.harvard.edu/amelia> but is much faster when filling in values for a single line of data.

This package provides a fold change rank based method is presented to search for genes with changing expression and to detect recurrent chromosomal copy number aberrations. This method may be useful for high-throughput biological data (micro-array, sequencing, ...). Probabilities are associated with genes or probes in the data set and there is no problem of multiple tests when using this method. For array-based comparative genomic hybridization data, segmentation results are obtained by merging the significant probes detected.

The main function of this package allows numerical vector objects to be displayed with their values in vulgar fractional form. This is convenient if patterns can then be more easily detected. In some cases replacing the components of a numeric vector by a rational approximation can also be expected to remove some component of round-off error. The main functions form a re-implementation of the functions fractions and rational of the MASS package, but using a radically improved programming strategy.

Backends implementing the Future API <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-048>, as defined by the future package, should use the tests provided by this package to validate that they meet the minimal requirements of the Future API. The tests can be performed easily from within R or from outside of R from the command line making it straightforward to include them in package tests and in Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines.

Offers calculation, visualization and comparison of algorithmic fairness metrics. Fair machine learning is an emerging topic with the overarching aim to critically assess whether ML algorithms reinforce existing social biases. Unfair algorithms can propagate such biases and produce predictions with a disparate impact on various sensitive groups of individuals (defined by sex, gender, ethnicity, religion, income, socioeconomic status, physical or mental disabilities). Fair algorithms possess the underlying foundation that these groups should be treated similarly or have similar prediction outcomes. The fairness R package offers the calculation and comparisons of commonly and less commonly used fairness metrics in population subgroups. These methods are described by Calders and Verwer (2010) <doi:10.1007/s10618-010-0190-x>, Chouldechova (2017) <doi:10.1089/big.2016.0047>, Feldman et al. (2015) <doi:10.1145/2783258.2783311> , Friedler et al. (2018) <doi:10.1145/3287560.3287589> and Zafar et al. (2017) <doi:10.1145/3038912.3052660>. The package also offers convenient visualizations to help understand fairness metrics.
