The deltaPlotR package implements Angoff's Delta Plot method to detect dichotomous DIF. Several detection thresholds are included, either from multivariate normality assumption or by prior determination. Item purification is supported (Magis and Facon (2014) <doi:10.18637/jss.v059.c01>).

Allows clinicians and researchers to compute daily dose (and subsequently days supply) for prescription refills using the following methods: Fixed window, fixed tablet, defined daily dose (DDD), and Random Effects Warfarin Days Supply (REWarDS). Daily dose is the computed dose that the patient takes every day. For medications with fixed dosing (e.g. direct oral anticoagulants) this is known and does not need to be estimated. For medications with varying dose such as warfarin, however, the daily dose should be assumed or estimated to allow measurement of drug exposure. Daysâ supply is the number of days that patientsâ supply of medication will last after each prescription fill. Estimating daysâ supply is necessary to calculate drug exposure. The package computes daysâ supply and daily dose at both the prescription and patient levels. Results at the prescription level are denoted with â -Rx-â and those at patient level are denoted with â -Pt-â .

Could be used to obtain spatial depths, spatial ranks and outliers of multivariate random variables. Could also be used to visualize DD-plots (a multivariate generalization of QQ-plots).

This package provides a library of density, distribution function, quantile function, (bounded) raw moments and random generation for a collection of distributions relevant for the firm size literature. Additionally, the package contains tools to fit these distributions using maximum likelihood and evaluate these distributions based on (i) log-likelihood ratio and (ii) deviations between the empirical and parametrically implied moments of the distributions. We add flexibility by allowing the considered distributions to be combined into piecewise composite or finite mixture distributions, as well as to be used when truncated.

Function to test spatial segregation and association based in contingency table analysis of nearest neighbour counts following Dixon (2002) <doi:10.1080/11956860.2002.11682700>. Some Fortran code has been included to the original dixon2002() function of the ecespa package to improve speed.

This package creates survey designs for distance sampling surveys. These designs can be assessed for various effort and coverage statistics. Once the user is satisfied with the design characteristics they can generate a set of transects to use in their distance sampling survey. Many of the designs implemented in this R package were first made available in our Distance for Windows software and are detailed in Chapter 7 of Advanced Distance Sampling, Buckland et. al. (2008, ISBN-13: 978-0199225873). Find out more about estimating animal/plant abundance with distance sampling at <https://distancesampling.org/>.

The package also includes visualization tools and a shiny interface to check model convergence and to help interpret results.

Algorithms implementing populations of agents that interact with one another and sense their environment may exhibit emergent behavior such as self-organization and swarm intelligence. Here, a swarm system called Databionic swarm (DBS) is introduced which was published in Thrun, M.C., Ultsch A.: "Swarm Intelligence for Self-Organized Clustering" (2020), Artificial Intelligence, <DOI:10.1016/j.artint.2020.103237>. DBS is able to adapt itself to structures of high-dimensional data such as natural clusters characterized by distance and/or density based structures in the data space. The first module is the parameter-free projection method called Pswarm (Pswarm()), which exploits the concepts of self-organization and emergence, game theory, swarm intelligence and symmetry considerations. The second module is the parameter-free high-dimensional data visualization technique, which generates projected points on the topographic map with hypsometric tints defined by the generalized U-matrix (GeneratePswarmVisualization()). The third module is the clustering method itself with non-critical parameters (DBSclustering()). Clustering can be verified by the visualization and vice versa. The term DBS refers to the method as a whole. It enables even a non-professional in the field of data mining to apply its algorithms for visualization and/or clustering to data sets with completely different structures drawn from diverse research fields. The comparison to common projection methods can be found in the book of Thrun, M.C.: "Projection Based Clustering through Self-Organization and Swarm Intelligence" (2018) <DOI:10.1007/978-3-658-20540-9>.
