Allows to perform the dynamic mixture estimation with state-space components and normal regression components, and clustering with normal mixture. Quasi-Bayesian estimation, as well as, that based on the Kerridge inaccuracy approximation are implemented. Main references: Nagy and Suzdaleva (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.apm.2013.05.038>; Nagy et al. (2011) <doi:10.1002/acs.1239>.

Make inference in a mixture of discrete Laplace distributions using the EM algorithm. This can e.g. be used for modelling the distribution of Y chromosomal haplotypes as described in [1, 2] (refer to the URL section).

This package provides a set of three two-census methods to the estimate the degree of death registration coverage for a population. Implemented methods include the Generalized Growth Balance method (GGB), the Synthetic Extinct Generation method (SEG), and a hybrid of the two, GGB-SEG. Each method offers automatic estimation, but users may also specify exact parameters or use a graphical interface to guess parameters in the traditional way if desired.

This package provides tools to identify, quantify, analyze, and visualize growth suppression events in tree rings that are often produced by insect defoliation. Described in Guiterman et al. (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.dendro.2020.125750>.

This package implements double hierarchical generalized linear models in which the mean, dispersion parameters for variance of random effects, and residual variance (overdispersion) can be further modeled as random-effect models.

Compares the fit of alternative models of continuous trait differentiation between sister species and other paired lineages. Differences in trait means between two lineages arise as they diverge from a common ancestor, and alternative processes of evolutionary divergence are expected to leave unique signatures in the distribution of trait differentiation in datasets comprised of many lineage pairs. Models include approximations of divergent selection, drift, and stabilizing selection. A variety of model extensions facilitate the testing of process-to-pattern hypotheses. Users supply trait data and divergence times for each lineage pair. The fit of alternative models is compared in a likelihood framework.

This package provides a deep neural network model with a monotonic increasing single index function tailored for periodontal disease studies.

This package provides a collection of functions to estimate parameters of a diffusion model via a D*M analysis. Build in models are: the Ratcliff diffusion model, the RWiener diffusion model, and Linear Ballistic Accumulator models. Custom models functions can be specified as long as they have a density function.

Create and customize interactive collapsible D3 trees using the D3 JavaScript library and the htmlwidgets package. These trees can be used directly from the R console, from RStudio', in Shiny apps and R Markdown documents. When in Shiny the tree layout is observed by the server and can be used as a reactive filter of structured data.

Computes small-sample degrees of freedom adjustment for heteroskedasticity robust standard errors, and for clustered standard errors in linear regression. See Imbens and Kolesár (2016) <doi:10.1162/REST_a_00552> for a discussion of these adjustments.

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.

This package provides functions for fitting a Bayesian model for grouping binary dissimilarity matrices in homogeneous clusters. Currently, it includes methods only for binary data (<doi:10.18637/jss.v100.i16>).

Decodes meshes and point cloud data encoded by the Draco mesh compression library from Google. Note that this is only designed for basic decoding and not intended as a full scale wrapping of the Draco library.
