Estimates the conditional association between an exposure and an outcome given covariates. Three methods are implemented: O-estimation, where a nuisance model for the association between the covariates and the outcome is used; E-estimation where a nuisance model for the association between the covariates and the exposure is used, and doubly robust (DR) estimation where both nuisance models are used. In DR-estimation, the estimates will be consistent when at least one of the nuisance models is correctly specified, not necessarily both. For more information, see Zetterqvist and Sjölander (2015) <doi:10.1515/em-2014-0021>.

Piecewise linear segmentation of ordered data by a dynamic programming algorithm. The algorithm was developed for time series data, e.g. growth curves, and for genome-wide read-count data from next generation sequencing, but is broadly applicable. Generic implementations of dynamic programming routines allow to scan for optimal segmentation parameters and test custom segmentation criteria ("scoring functions").

Works as an "add-on" to packages like shiny', future', as well as rlang', and provides utility functions. Just like dipping sauce adding flavors to potato chips or pita bread, dipsaus for data analysis and visualizations adds handy functions and enhancements to popular packages. The goal is to provide simple solutions that are frequently asked for online, such as how to synchronize shiny inputs without freezing the app, or how to get memory size on Linux or MacOS system. The enhancements roughly fall into these four categories: 1. shiny input widgets; 2. high-performance computing using the future package; 3. modify R calls and convert among numbers, strings, and other objects. 4. utility functions to get system information such like CPU chip-set, memory limit, etc.

This package provides a set of utilities for calculating the Deficit (frailty) Index (DI) in gerontological studies. The deficit index was first proposed by Arnold Mitnitski and Kenneth Rockwood and represents a proxy measure of aging and also can be served as a sensitive predictor of survival. For more information, see (i)"Accumulation of Deficits as a Proxy Measure of Aging" by Arnold B. Mitnitski et al. (2001), The Scientific World Journal 1, <DOI:10.1100/tsw.2001.58>; (ii) "Frailty, fitness and late-life mortality in relation to chronological and biological age" by Arnold B Mitnitski et al. (2001), BMC Geriatrics2002 2(1), <DOI:10.1186/1471-2318-2-1>.

There are many different formats dates are commonly represented with: the order of day, month, or year can differ, different separators ("-", "/", or whitespace) can be used, months can be numerical, names, or abbreviations and year given as two digits or four. datefixR takes dates in all these different formats and converts them to R's built-in date class. If datefixR cannot standardize a date, such as because it is too malformed, then the user is told which date cannot be standardized and the corresponding ID for the row. datefixR also allows the imputation of missing days and months with user-controlled behavior.

Density surface modelling of line transect data. A Generalized Additive Model-based approach is used to calculate spatially-explicit estimates of animal abundance from distance sampling (also presence/absence and strip transect) data. Several utility functions are provided for model checking, plotting and variance estimation.

This package provides a simple approach to measure political sophistication based on open-ended survey responses. Discursive sophistication captures the complexity of individual attitude expression by quantifying its relative size, range, and constraint.

In the context of data quality assessment, this package provides a number of functions for evaluating data quality across various dimensions, including completeness, plausibility, concordance, conformance, currency, timeliness, and correctness. It has been developed based on two well-known frameworksâ Michael G. Kahn (2016) <doi:10.13063/2327-9214.1244> and Nicole G. Weiskopf (2017) <doi:10.5334/egems.218>â for data quality assessment. Using this package, users can evaluate the quality of their datasets, provided that corresponding metadata are available.

The debar sequence processing pipeline is designed for denoising high throughput sequencing data for the animal DNA barcode marker cytochrome c oxidase I (COI). The package is designed to detect and correct insertion and deletion errors within sequencer outputs. This is accomplished through comparison of input sequences against a profile hidden Markov model (PHMM) using the Viterbi algorithm (for algorithm details see Durbin et al. 1998, ISBN: 9780521629713). Inserted base pairs are removed and deleted base pairs are accounted for through the introduction of a placeholder character. Since the PHMM is a probabilistic representation of the COI barcode, corrections are not always perfect. For this reason debar censors base pairs adjacent to reported indel sites, turning them into placeholder characters (default is 7 base pairs in either direction, this feature can be disabled). Testing has shown that this censorship results in the correct sequence length being restored, and erroneous base pairs being masked the vast majority of the time (>95%).

Facilitates the import and analysis of SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism') and silicodart (presence/absence) data. The main focus is on data generated by DarT (Diversity Arrays Technology), however, data from other sequencing platforms can be used once SNP or related fragment presence/absence data from any source is imported. Genetic datasets are stored in a derived genlight format (package adegenet'), that allows for a very compact storage of data and metadata. Functions are available for importing and exporting of SNP and silicodart data, for reporting on and filtering on various criteria (e.g. callrate', heterozygosity', reproducibility', maximum allele frequency). Additional functions are available for visualization (e.g. Principle Coordinate Analysis) and creating a spatial representation using maps. dartR.base is the base package of the dartRverse suits of packages. To install the other packages, we recommend to install the dartRverse package, that supports the installation of all packages in the dartRverse'. If you want to cite dartR', you find the information by typing citation('dartR.base') in the console.

An implementation of the decimated two-dimensional complex dual-tree wavelet transform as described in Kingsbury (1999) <doi:10.1098/rsta.1999.0447> and Selesnick et al. (2005) <doi:10.1109/MSP.2005.1550194>. Also includes the undecimated version and spectral bias correction described in Nelson et al. (2018) <doi:10.1007/s11222-017-9784-0>. The code is partly based on the dtcwt Python library.

This package provides tools for performing p-value combination tests with discrete input p-values. These tests combine significance evidence derived from independent discrete statistics to test a global null hypothesis, which is defined by the specified null distribution(s) of these discrete statistics. The testing procedure involves two main steps: (1) Wasserstein Adjustment: Each component of the combination statistic is replaced by an adjusted Z statistic. This adjustment, based on the minimum Wasserstein distance, preserves the discrete nature of the original statistics while better aligning them with their counterparts under continuity. (2) Calculation of the Significance of the Combination Statistic: A continuous distribution that optimally matches the discrete distribution of the combination statistic is obtained, and the testing p-value for the global null hypothesis is computed. The first step is analogous to Lancaster's approach but is generalized based on Wasserstein optimization. The second step allows for asymptotic control of Type I error with higher statistical power. The package implements several p-value combination methods, including Fisherâ s, Pearsonâ s, Georgeâ s, Stoufferâ s, and Edgingtonâ s methods. The individual tests to be combined can be right-sided, left-sided, or two-sided, and can be based on binomial, Poisson, hypergeometric, noncentral hypergeometric, negative binomial, or geometric distributions, or a mixture of them. The underlying methodology and its foundations are described in the following references: Contador, Gonzalo and Wu, Zheyang (2025).

Diagnostic classification models are psychometric models used to categorically estimate respondents mastery, or proficiency, on a set of predefined skills (Bradshaw, 2016, <doi:10.1002/9781118956588.ch13>). Diagnostic models can be estimated with Stan'; however, the necessary scripts can be long and complicated. This package automates the creation of Stan scripts for diagnostic classification models. Specify different types of diagnostic models, define prior distributions, and automatically generate the necessary Stan code for estimating the model.
