Ensemble correlation-based low-rank matrix completion method (ECLRMC) is an extension to the LRMC based methods. Traditionally, the LRMC based methods give identical importance to the whole data which results in emphasizing on the commonality of the data and overlooking the subtle but crucial differences. This method aims to overcome the equality assumption problem that exists in the current LRMS based methods. Ensemble correlation-based low-rank matrix completion (ECLRMC) takes consideration of the specific characteristic of each sample and performs LRMC on the set of samples with a strong correlation. It uses an ensemble learning method to improve the imputation performance. Since each sample is analyzed independently this method can be parallelized by distributing imputation across many computation units or GPU platforms. This package provides three different methods (LRMC, CLRMC and ECLRMC) for data imputation. There is also an NRMS function for evaluating the result.

This package provides a system for calculating the optimal sampling effort, based on the ideas of "Ecological cost-benefit optimization" as developed by A. Underwood (1997, ISBN 0 521 55696 1). Data is obtained from simulated ecological communities with prep_data() which formats and arranges the initial data, and then the optimization follows the following procedure of four functions: (1) prep_data() takes the original dataset and creates simulated sets that can be used as a basis for estimating statistical power and type II error. (2) sim_beta() is used to estimate the statistical power for the different sampling efforts specified by the user. (3) sim_cbo() calculates then the optimal sampling effort, based on the statistical power and the sampling costs. Additionally, (4) scompvar() calculates the variation components necessary for (5) Underwood_cbo() to calculate the optimal combination of number of sites and samples depending on either an economic budget or on a desired statistical accuracy. Lastly, (6) plot_power() helps the user visualize the results of sim_beta().

This package provides a consistent representation of year-based time scales as a numeric vector with an associated era'. There are built-in era definitions for many year numbering systems used in contemporary and historic calendars (e.g. Common Era, Islamic Hijri years); year-based time scales used in archaeology, astronomy, geology, and other palaeosciences (e.g. Before Present, SI-prefixed annus'); and support for arbitrary user-defined eras. Years can converted from any one era to another using a generalised transformation function. Methods are also provided for robust casting and coercion between years and other numeric types, type-stable arithmetic with years, and pretty-printing in tables.

Expectile and quantile regression of models with nonlinear effects e.g. spatial, random, ridge using least asymmetric weighed squares / absolutes as well as boosting; also supplies expectiles for common distributions.

Data that are collected through online sources such as Mechanical Turk may require excluding rows because of IP address duplication, geolocation, or completion duration. This package facilitates exclusion of these data for Qualtrics datasets.

This package provides tools for calculating evolvability parameters from estimated G-matrices as defined in Hansen and Houle (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1420-9101.2008.01573.x> and fits phylogenetic comparative models that link the rate of evolution of a trait to the state of another evolving trait (see Hansen et al. 2021 Systematic Biology <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syab079>). The package was released with Bolstad et al. (2014) <doi:10.1098/rstb.2013.0255>, which contains some examples of use.

Univariate and multivariate methods for compositional data analysis, based on logratios. The package implements the approach in the book Compositional Data Analysis in Practice by Michael Greenacre (2018), where accent is given to simple pairwise logratios. Selection can be made of logratios that account for a maximum percentage of logratio variance. Various multivariate analyses of logratios are included in the package.

Estimates the time-varying reproduction number, rate of spread, and doubling time using a renewal equation approach combined with Bayesian inference via Stan. Supports Gaussian process and random walk priors for modelling changes in transmission over time. Accounts for delays between infection and observation (incubation period, reporting delays), right-truncation in recent data, day-of-week effects, and observation overdispersion. Can estimate relationships between primary and secondary outcomes (e.g., cases to hospitalisations or deaths) and forecast both. Runs across multiple regions in parallel. Based on Abbott et al. (2020) <doi:10.12688/wellcomeopenres.16006.1> and Gostic et al. (2020) <doi:10.1101/2020.06.18.20134858>.

An implementation of the algorithm described in "Efficient Large- Scale Internet Media Selection Optimization for Online Display Advertising" by Paulson, Luo, and James (Journal of Marketing Research 2018; see URL below for journal text/citation and <http://faculty.marshall.usc.edu/gareth-james/Research/ELMSO.pdf> for a full-text version of the paper). The algorithm here is designed to allocate budget across a set of online advertising opportunities using a coordinate-descent approach, but it can be used in any resource-allocation problem with a matrix of visitation (in the case of the paper, website page- views) and channels (in the paper, websites). The package contains allocation functions both in the presence of bidding, when allocation is dependent on channel-specific cost curves, and when advertising costs are fixed at each channel.

Creates interactive network visualizations using visNetwork to display function call relationships, with detailed tooltips showing function arguments, return values, and documentation. Supports both individual files and directory-based analysis with automatic file detection. Useful for understanding code structure, identifying dependencies, and documenting R projects.

This package provides a collection of functions that would help one to build features based on external data. Very useful for Data Scientists in data to day work. Many functions create features using parallel computation. Since the nitty gritty of parallel computation is hidden under the hood, the user need not worry about creating clusters and shutting them down.

S4 classes and methods to deal with fuzzy numbers. They allow for computing any arithmetic operations (e.g., by using the Zadeh extension principle), performing approximation of arbitrary fuzzy numbers by trapezoidal and piecewise linear ones, preparing plots for publications, computing possibility and necessity values for comparisons, etc.

This package provides an implementation of concurrent or varying coefficient regression methods for functional data. The implementations are done for both dense and sparsely observed functional data. Pointwise confidence bands can be constructed for each case. Further, the influence of past predictor values are modeled by a smooth history index function, while the effects on the response are described by smooth varying coefficient functions, which are very useful in analyzing real data such as COVID data.
