This is a collection of various kinds of data with broad uses for teaching. My students, and academics like me who teach the same topics I teach, should find this useful if their teaching workflow is also built around the R programming language. The applications are multiple but mostly cluster on topics of statistical methodology, international relations, and political economy.

This package provides an implementation of the Sparse ICA method in Wang et al. (2024) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2024.2370593> for estimating sparse independent source components of cortical surface functional MRI data, by addressing a non-smooth, non-convex optimization problem through the relax-and-split framework. This method effectively balances statistical independence and sparsity while maintaining computational efficiency.

This package provides a container for data used by the usmap package. The data used by usmap has been extracted into this package so that the file size of the usmap package can be reduced greatly. The data in this package will be updated roughly once per year as new map data files are provided by the US Census Bureau.

Full model selection (detection of the relevant features and estimation of the number of clusters) for model-based clustering (see reference here <doi:10.1007/s11222-016-9670-1>). Data to analyze can be continuous, categorical, integer or mixed. Moreover, missing values can occur and do not necessitate any pre-processing. Shiny application permits an easy interpretation of the results.

Simplifies functions assess normality for bivariate and multivariate statistical techniques. Includes functions designed to replicate plots and tables that would result from similar calls in SPSS', including hst(), box(), qq(), tab(), cormat(), and residplot(). Also includes simplified formulae, such as mode(), scatter(), p.corr(), ow.anova(), and rm.anova().

Pathifier is an algorithm that infers pathway deregulation scores for each tumor sample on the basis of expression data. This score is determined, in a context-specific manner, for every particular dataset and type of cancer that is being investigated. The algorithm transforms gene-level information into pathway-level information, generating a compact and biologically relevant representation of each sample.

The complexity of high-throughput quantitative omics experiments often leads to low replicates numbers and many missing values. We implemented a new test to simultaneously consider missing values and quantitative changes, which we combined with well-performing statistical tests for high confidence detection of differentially regulated features. The package contains functions to run the test and to visualize the results.

This package provides functions for annotation-agnostic differential expression analysis of RNA-seq data. Two implementations of the DER Finder approach are included in this package:

1. single base-level F-statistics and

2. DER identification at the expressed regions-level.

The DER Finder approach can also be used to identify differentially bounded ChIP-seq peaks.

This package provides .C64(), an enhanced version of .C() and .Fortran() from the R foreign function interface. .C64() supports long vectors, arguments of type 64-bit integer, and provides a mechanism to avoid unnecessary copies of read-only and write-only arguments. This makes it a convenient and fast interface to C/C++ and Fortran code.

Application of reinsurance treaties to claims portfolios. The package creates a class Claims whose objective is to store claims and premiums, on which different treaties can be applied. A statistical analysis can then be applied to measure the impact of reinsurance, producing a table or graphical output. This package can be used for estimating the impact of reinsurance on several portfolios or for pricing treaties through statistical analysis. Documentation for the implemented methods can be found in "Reinsurance: Actuarial and Statistical Aspects" by Hansjöerg Albrecher, Jan Beirlant, Jozef L. Teugels (2017, ISBN: 978-0-470-77268-3) and "REINSURANCE: A Basic Guide to Facultative and Treaty Reinsurance" by Munich Re (2010) <https://www.munichre.com/site/mram/get/documents_E96160999/mram/assetpool.mr_america/PDFs/3_Publications/reinsurance_basic_guide.pdf>.

Ruhi, G. W. Holtgrieve, V. Elliott, M. E. Arias, P. B. Ngor, T. A. Räsänsen, S. Nam (2017) <doi:10.1126/science.aao1053>.

Given a set of predictive quantiles from a distribution, estimate the distribution and create `d`, `p`, `q`, and `r` functions to evaluate its density function, distribution function, and quantile function, and generate random samples. On the interior of the provided quantiles, an interpolation method such as a monotonic cubic spline is used; the tails are approximated by a location-scale family.
