For functions that take and return vectors (or scalars), this package provides 8 algorithms for finding fixed point vectors (vectors for which the inputs and outputs to the function are the same vector). These algorithms include Anderson (1965) acceleration <doi:10.1145/321296.321305>, epsilon extrapolation methods (Wynn 1962 <doi:10.2307/2004051>) and minimal polynomial methods (Cabay and Jackson 1976 <doi:10.1137/0713060>).

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.

This package provides a comprehensive set of datasets and tools for causal inference research. The package includes data from clinical trials, cancer studies, epidemiological surveys, environmental exposures, and health-related observational studies.

Forest Many-Objective Robust Decision Making ('FoRDM') is a R toolkit for supporting robust forest management under deep uncertainty. It provides a forestry-focused application of Many-Objective Robust Decision Making ('MORDM') to forest simulation outputs, enabling users to evaluate robustness using regret- and satisficing'-based measures. FoRDM identifies robust solutions, generates Pareto fronts, and offers interactive 2D, 3D, and parallel-coordinate visualizations.

Estimates fuzzy measures of poverty and deprivation. It also estimates the sampling variance of these measures using bootstrap or jackknife repeated replications.

Forensic applications of pedigree analysis, including likelihood ratios for relationship testing, general relatedness inference, marker simulation, and power analysis. forrel is part of the pedsuite', a collection of packages for pedigree analysis, further described in the book Pedigree Analysis in R (Vigeland, 2021, ISBN:9780128244302). Several functions deal specifically with power analysis in missing person cases, implementing methods described in Vigeland et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.fsigen.2020.102376>. Data import from the Familias software (Egeland et al. (2000) <doi:10.1016/S0379-0738(00)00147-X>) is supported through the pedFamilias package.

This package implements the Factor-Augmented Clustering Tree (FACT) algorithm for clustering time series data. The method constructs a classification tree where splits are determined by covariates, and the splitting criterion is based on a group factor model representation of the time series within each node. Both threshold-based and permutation-based tests are supported for splitting decisions, with an option for parallel computation. For methodological details, see Hu, Li, Luo, and Wang (2025, in preparation), Factor-Augmented Clustering Tree for Time Series.

Allows ATA (Automatic Time series analysis using the Ata method) models from the ATAforecasting package to be used in a tidy workflow with the modeling interface of fabletools'. This extends ATAforecasting to provide enhanced model specification and management, performance evaluation methods, and model combination tools. The Ata method (Yapar et al. (2019) <doi:10.15672/hujms.461032>), an alternative to exponential smoothing (described in Yapar (2016) <doi:10.15672/HJMS.201614320580>, Yapar et al. (2017) <doi:10.15672/HJMS.2017.493>), is a new univariate time series forecasting method which provides innovative solutions to issues faced during the initialization and optimization stages of existing forecasting methods. Forecasting performance of the Ata method is superior to existing methods both in terms of easy implementation and accurate forecasting. It can be applied to non-seasonal or seasonal time series which can be decomposed into four components (remainder, level, trend and seasonal).

Integrate Item Response Theory (IRT) and Federated Learning to estimate traditional IRT models, including the 2-Parameter Logistic (2PL) and the Graded Response Models, with enhanced privacy. It allows for the estimation in a distributed manner without compromising accuracy. A user-friendly shiny application is included.

This package implements methods for multiple change point detection in multivariate time series with non-stationary dynamics and cross-correlations. The methodology is based on a model in which each component has a fluctuating mean represented by a random walk with occasional abrupt shifts, combined with a stationary vector autoregressive structure to capture temporal and cross-sectional dependence. The framework is broadly applicable to correlated multivariate sequences in which large, sudden shifts occur in all or subsets of components and are the primary targets of interest, whereas small, smooth fluctuations are not. Although random walks are used as a modeling device, they provide a flexible approximation for a wide class of slowly varying or locally smooth dynamics, enabling robust performance beyond the strict random walk setting.

This package provides implementation of statistical methods for random objects lying in various metric spaces, which are not necessarily linear spaces. The core of this package is Fréchet regression for random objects with Euclidean predictors, which allows one to perform regression analysis for non-Euclidean responses under some mild conditions. Examples include distributions in 2-Wasserstein space, covariance matrices endowed with power metric (with Frobenius metric as a special case), Cholesky and log-Cholesky metrics, spherical data.

This method is a new class of model selection strategies, for mixed model selection, which includes linear and generalized linear mixed models. The idea involves a procedure to isolate a subgroup of what are known as correct models (of which the optimal model is a member). This is accomplished by constructing a statistical fence, or barrier, to carefully eliminate incorrect models. Once the fence is constructed, the optimal model is selected from among those within the fence according to a criterion which can be made flexible. References: 1. Jiang J., Rao J.S., Gu Z., Nguyen T.

This package provides methods for performing fMRI quality assurance (QA) measurements of test objects. Heavily based on the fBIRN procedures detailed by Friedman and Glover (2006) <doi:10.1002/jmri.20583>.

Aids in analysing data from a food frequency questionnaire known as the Harvard Service Food Frequency Questionnaire (HSFFQ). Functions from this package use answers from the HSFFQ to generate estimates of daily consumed micronutrients, calories, macronutrients on an individual level. The package also calculates food quotients on individual and group levels. Foodquotient calculation is an often tedious step in the calculation of total human energy expenditure (TEE) using the doubly labeled water method, which is the gold standard for measuring TEE.

This package provides very fast logistic regression with coefficient inferences plus other useful methods such as a forward stepwise model generator (see the benchmarks by visiting the github page at the URL below). The inputs are flexible enough to accomodate GPU computations. The coefficient estimation employs the fastLR() method in the RcppNumerical package by Yixuan Qiu et al. This package allows their work to be more useful to a wider community that consumes inference.

Opens a shiny app which supports theoretical and computational analysis of block designs for symmetrical and mixed level factorial experiments. This package includes tools to check whether a design has orthogonal factorial structure (OFS) with balance or not and is able to find the orthogonality deviation value if not having OFS. This package includes function to evaluate efficiency factor of all factorial effects in two situations, in the first situation if the design is verified with OFS and balance then calculate the efficiencies of all factorial effects using a specific analytical procedure and in the second situation if the design is verified with non-OFS and balance then a new general method has been developed and used to calculate efficiencies under the condition that the design should be proper and equi-replicated, See Gupta, S.C. and Mukerjee, R. (1987): "A Calculus for factorial arrangements". Lecture Notes in Statistics. No. 59, Springer-Verlag, Berlin, New York, <doi:10.1007/978-1-4419-8730-3>. For the easy use of package, shiny app is used for giving inputs and inputs validation.

Utilities to read and write files in the FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) format, a standard format in astronomy (see e.g. <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FITS> for more information). Present low-level routines allow: reading, parsing, and modifying FITS headers; reading FITS images (multi-dimensional arrays); reading FITS binary and ASCII tables; and writing FITS images (multi-dimensional arrays). Higher-level functions allow: reading files composed of one or more headers and a single (perhaps multidimensional) image or single table; reading tables into data frames; generating vectors for image array axes; scaling and writing images as 16-bit integers. Known incompletenesses are reading random group extensions, as well as complex and array descriptor data types in binary tables.

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.
