The functionality provided by this package is an expansion of the code of the statebins package, created by B. Rudis (2022), <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.statebins>. It allows for the creation of square choropleths for the entire world, provided an appropriate specified grid is supplied.

Guided partial least squares (guided-PLS) is the combination of partial least squares by singular value decomposition (PLS-SVD) and guided principal component analysis (guided-PCA). This package provides implementations of PLS-SVD, guided-PLS, and guided-PCA for supervised dimensionality reduction. The guided-PCA function (new in v1.1.0) automatically handles mixed data types (continuous and categorical) in the supervision matrix and provides detailed contribution analysis for interpretability. For the details of the methods, see the reference section of GitHub README.md <https://github.com/rikenbit/guidedPLS>.

This is a set of functions to retrieve information about GIMMS NDVI3g files currently available online; download (and re-arrange, in the case of NDVI3g.v0) the half-monthly data sets; import downloaded files from ENVI binary (NDVI3g.v0) or NetCDF format (NDVI3g.v1) directly into R based on the widespread raster package; conduct quality control; and generate monthly composites (e.g., maximum values) from the half-monthly input data. As a special gimmick, a method is included to conveniently apply the Mann-Kendall trend test upon Raster* images, optionally featuring trend-free pre-whitening to account for lag-1 autocorrelation.

This package contains methods for fitting Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) and Generalized Additive Models (GAMs). Generalized regression models are common methods for handling data for which assuming Gaussian-distributed errors is not appropriate. For instance, if the response of interest is binary, count, or proportion data, one can instead model the expectation of the response based on an appropriate data-generating distribution. This package provides methods for fitting GLMs and GAMs under Beta regression, Poisson regression, Gamma regression, and Binomial regression (currently GLM only) settings. Models are fit using local scoring algorithms described in Hastie and Tibshirani (1990) <doi:10.1214/ss/1177013604>.

This package provides methods for processing spatial data for decision-making. This package is an R implementation of methods provided by the open source software GeoFIS <https://www.geofis.org> (Leroux et al. 2018) <doi:10.3390/agriculture8060073>. The main functionalities are the management zone delineation (Pedroso et al. 2010) <doi:10.1016/j.compag.2009.10.007> and data aggregation (Mora-Herrera et al. 2020) <doi:10.1016/j.compag.2020.105624>.

The gamma-Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (gamma-OMP) is a recently suggested modification of the OMP feature selection algorithm for a wide range of response variables. The package offers many alternative regression models, such linear, robust, survival, multivariate etc., including k-fold cross-validation.

Projections are common dimensionality reduction methods, which represent high-dimensional data in a two-dimensional space. However, when restricting the output space to two dimensions, which results in a two dimensional scatter plot (projection) of the data, low dimensional similarities do not represent high dimensional distances coercively [Thrun, 2018] <DOI: 10.1007/978-3-658-20540-9>. This could lead to a misleading interpretation of the underlying structures [Thrun, 2018]. By means of the 3D topographic map the generalized Umatrix is able to depict errors of these two-dimensional scatter plots. The package is derived from the book of Thrun, M.C.: "Projection Based Clustering through Self-Organization and Swarm Intelligence" (2018) <DOI:10.1007/978-3-658-20540-9> and the main algorithm called simplified self-organizing map for dimensionality reduction methods is published in <DOI: 10.1016/j.mex.2020.101093>.

Estimates a counterfactual using Gaussian process projection. It takes a dataframe, creates missingness in the desired outcome variable and estimates counterfactual values based on all information in the dataframe. The package writes Stan code, checks it for convergence and adds artificial noise to prevent overfitting and returns a plot of actual values and estimated counterfactual values using r-base plot.

We implement and extend the Dividing Local Gaussian Process algorithm by Lederer et al. (2020) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2006.09446>. Its main use case is in online learning where it is used to train a network of local GPs (referred to as tree) by cleverly partitioning the input space. In contrast to a single GP, GPTreeO is able to deal with larger amounts of data. The package includes methods to create the tree and set its parameter, incorporating data points from a data stream as well as making joint predictions based on all relevant local GPs.

This package provides a comprehensive suite of genome-wide association study (GWAS) methods specifically designed for biobank-scale data, including but not limited to, robust approaches for time-to-event traits (Li et al., 2025 <doi:10.1038/s43588-025-00864-z>) and ordinal categorical traits (Bi et al., 2021 <doi:10.1016/j.ajhg.2021.03.019>). The package also offers general frameworks for GWAS of any trait type (Bi et al., 2020 <doi:10.1016/j.ajhg.2020.06.003>), while accounting for sample relatedness (Xu et al., 2025 <doi:10.1038/s41467-025-56669-1>) or population structure (Ma et al., 2025 <doi:10.1186/s13059-025-03827-9>). By accurately approximating score statistic distributions using saddlepoint approximation (SPA), these methods can effectively control type I error rates for rare variants and in the presence of unbalanced phenotype distributions. Additionally, the package includes functions for simulating genotype and phenotype data to support research and method development.

(2024) <doi:10.1016/j.asoc.2024.111913>, "A Double Exponential Particle Swarm Optimization with Non-Uniform Variates as Stochastic Tuning and Guaranteed Convergence to a Global Optimum with Sample Applications to Finding Optimal Exact Designs in Biostatistics"; - and PSO-GO.

Genetic algorithm are a class of optimization algorithms inspired by the process of natural selection and genetics. This package is for learning purposes and allows users to optimize various functions or parameters by mimicking biological evolution processes such as selection, crossover, and mutation. Ideal for tasks like machine learning parameter tuning, mathematical function optimization, and solving an optimization problem that involves finding the best solution in a discrete space.

An optim-style implementation of the Stochastic Quasi-Gradient Differential Evolution (SQG-DE) optimization algorithm first published by Sala, Baldanzini, and Pierini (2018; <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-72926-8_27>). This optimization algorithm fuses the robustness of the population-based global optimization algorithm "Differential Evolution" with the efficiency of gradient-based optimization. The derivative-free algorithm uses population members to build stochastic gradient estimates, without any additional objective function evaluations. Sala, Baldanzini, and Pierini argue this algorithm is useful for difficult optimization problems under a tight function evaluation budget. This package can run SQG-DE in parallel and sequentially.

Moon charts are like pie charts except that the proportions are shown as crescent or gibbous portions of a circle, like the lit and unlit portions of the moon. As such, they work best with only one or two groups. gggibbous extends ggplot2 to allow for plotting multiple moon charts in a single panel and does not require a square coordinate system.

Computes the test statistic and p-value of the Cramer-von Mises and Anderson-Darling test for some continuous distribution functions proposed by Chen and Balakrishnan (1995) <http://asq.org/qic/display-item/index.html?item=11407>. In addition to our classic distribution functions here, we calculate the Goodness of Fit (GoF) test to dataset which follows the extreme value distribution function, without remembering the formula of distribution/density functions. Calculates the Value at Risk (VaR) and Average VaR are another important risk factors which are estimated by using well-known distribution functions. Pflug and Romisch (2007, ISBN: 9812707409) is a good reference to study the properties of risk measures.

This package performs variable selection with data from Genome-wide association studies (GWAS), or other high-dimensional data with continuous, binary or survival outcomes, combining in an iterative framework the computational efficiency of the structured screen-and-select variable selection strategy based on some association learning and the parsimonious uncertainty quantification provided by the use of non-local priors (see Sanyal et al., 2019 <DOI:10.1093/bioinformatics/bty472>).
