Predict Scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon emissions for UK Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), using Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes and annual turnover data, as well as Scope 1 carbon emissions for UK farms. The carbonpredict package provides single and batch prediction, plotting, and workflow tools for carbon accounting and reporting. The package utilises pre-trained models, leveraging rich classified transaction data to accurately predict Scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon emissions for UK SMEs as well as identifying emissions hotspots. It also provides Scope 1 carbon emissions predictions for UK farms of types: Cereals ex. rice, Dairy, Mixed farming, Sheep and goats, Cattle & buffaloes, Poultry, Animal production and Support for crop production.

Customized training is a simple technique for transductive learning, when the test covariates are known at the time of training. The method identifies a subset of the training set to serve as the training set for each of a few identified subsets in the training set. This package implements customized training for the glmnet() and cv.glmnet() functions.

This package provides Python'-style list comprehensions. List comprehension expressions use usual loops (for(), while() and repeat()) and usual if() as list producers. In many cases it gives more concise notation than standard "*apply + filter" strategy.

Includes binning categorical variables into lesser number of categories based on t-test, converting categorical variables into continuous features using the mean of the response variable for the respective categories, understanding the relationship between the response variable and predictor variables using data transformations.

Computed tomography (CT) imaging is a powerful tool for understanding the composition of sediment cores. This package streamlines and accelerates the analysis of CT data generated in the context of environmental science. Included are tools for processing raw DICOM images to characterize sediment composition (sand, peat, etc.). Root analyses are also enabled, including measures of external surface area and volumes for user-defined root size classes. For a detailed description of the application of computed tomography imaging for sediment characterization, see: Davey, E., C. Wigand, R. Johnson, K. Sundberg, J. Morris, and C. Roman. (2011) <DOI: 10.1890/10-2037.1>.

Get insight into a forest of classification trees, by calculating similarities between the trees, and subsequently clustering them. Each cluster is represented by it's most central cluster member. The package implements the methodology described in Sies & Van Mechelen (2020) <doi:10.1007/s00357-019-09350-4>.

This package provides a tool to estimate IRT item parameters (2 PL) using CTT-based item statistics from small samples via artificial neural networks and regression trees.

Imports conversation transcripts into R, concatenates them into a single dataframe appending event identifiers, cleans and formats the text, then yokes user-specified psycholinguistic database values to each word. ConversationAlign then computes alignment indices between two interlocutors across each transcript for >40 possible semantic, lexical, and affective dimensions. In addition to alignment, ConversationAlign also produces a table of analytics (e.g., token count, type-token-ratio) in a summary table describing your particular text corpus.

The Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to perform changepoint analysis in time series data. The package also includes an extended island version of GA, as described in Lu, Lund, and Lee (2010, <doi:10.1214/09-AOAS289>). By mimicking the principles of natural selection and evolution, GA provides a powerful stochastic search technique for solving combinatorial optimization problems. In changepointGA', each chromosome represents a changepoint configuration, including the number and locations of changepoints, hyperparameters, and model parameters. The package employs genetic operatorsâ selection, crossover, and mutationâ to iteratively improve solutions based on the given fitness (objective) function. Key features of changepointGA include encoding changepoint configurations in an integer format, enabling dynamic and simultaneous estimation of model hyperparameters, changepoint configurations, and associated parameters. The detailed algorithmic implementation can be found in the package vignettes and in the paper of Li and Lu (2024, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.15571>).

Computes community climate statistics for volume and mismatch using species climate niches either unscaled or scaled relative to a regional species pool. These statistics can be used to describe biogeographic patterns and infer community assembly processes. Includes a vignette outlining usage.

Fit multiclass Classification version of Bayesian Adaptive Smoothing Splines (CBASS) to data using reversible jump MCMC. The multiclass classification problem consists of a response variable that takes on unordered categorical values with at least three levels, and a set of inputs for each response variable. The CBASS model consists of a latent multivariate probit formulation, and the means of the latent Gaussian random variables are specified using adaptive regression splines. The MCMC alternates updates of the latent Gaussian variables and the spline parameters. All the spline parameters (variables, signs, knots, number of interactions), including the number of basis functions used to model each latent mean, are inferred. Functions are provided to process inputs, initialize the chain, run the chain, and make predictions. Predictions are made on a probabilistic basis, where, for a given input, the probabilities of each categorical value are produced. See Marrs and Francom (2023) "Multiclass classification using Bayesian multivariate adaptive regression splines" Under review.

Most data is also available on the CompTox Chemical Dashboard ('CCD') <https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard/> and other resources found at the EPA Computational Toxicology and Exposure Online Resources <https://www.epa.gov/comptox-tools>.

Case-based reasoning is a problem-solving methodology that involves solving a new problem by referring to the solution of a similar problem in a large set of previously solved problems. The key aspect of Case Based Reasoning is to determine the problem that "most closely" matches the new problem at hand. This is achieved by defining a family of distance functions and using these distance functions as parameters for local averaging regression estimates of the final result. The optimal distance function is chosen based on a specific error measure used in regression estimation. This approach allows for efficient problem-solving by leveraging past experiences and adapting solutions from similar cases. The underlying concept is inspired by the work of Dippon J. et al. (2002) <doi:10.1016/S0167-9473(02)00058-0>.

Constrained randomization by Raab and Butcher (2001) <doi:10.1002/1097-0258(20010215)20:3%3C351::AID-SIM797%3E3.0.CO;2-C> is suitable for cluster randomized trials (CRTs) with a small number of clusters (e.g., 20 or fewer). The procedure of constrained randomization is based on the baseline values of some cluster-level covariates specified. The intervention effect on the individual outcome can then be analyzed through clustered permutation test introduced by Gail, et al. (1996) <doi:10.1002/(SICI)1097-0258(19960615)15:11%3C1069::AID-SIM220%3E3.0.CO;2-Q>. Motivated from Li, et al. (2016) <doi:10.1002/sim.7410>, the package performs constrained randomization on the baseline values of cluster-level covariates and clustered permutation test on the individual-level outcomes for cluster randomized trials.

Computes conditional multivariate t probabilities, random deviates, and densities. It can also be used to create missing values at random in a dataset, resulting in a missing at random (MAR) mechanism. Inbuilt in the package are the Expectation-Maximization (EM), Monte Carlo EM, and Stochastic EM algorithms for imputation of missing values in datasets assuming the multivariate t distribution.
