Several causal effects are measured using least squares regressions and basis function approximations. Backward and forward selection methods based on different criteria are used to select the basis functions.

What is funnier than a dad joke? A dad joke in R! This package utilizes the API for <https://icanhazdadjoke.com> and returns dad jokes from several API endpoints.

Set of tools for detecting and analyzing Airborne Laser Scanning-derived Tropical Forest Canopy Gaps. Details were published in Silva and others (2019) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13211>.

This package implements three nonparametric two-sample tests for multivariate paired data and pair matching. Methods are described in the associated preprint: <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2007.01497>.

This package contains ten datasets used in the chapters and exercises of Paul, Alice (2023) "Health Data Science in R" <https://alicepaul.github.io/health-data-science-using-r/>.

This package provides a way to display word clouds in R. The word cloud is a html widget, so you can use it in interactive documents and shiny applications.

Allows an interactive assessment of the timing of interim analyses. The algorithm simulates both the recruitment and treatment/event phase of a clinical trial based on the package interim'.

Calculates and plots Handedness index (HI), absolute HI, mean HI and z-score which are commonly used indexes for the study of hand preference (laterality) in non-human primates.

Fully parametric Bayesian multiple imputation framework for massive multivariate data of different variable types as seen in Demirtas, H. (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-981-10-3307-0_8>.

Property based testing, inspired by the original QuickCheck'. This package builds on the property based testing framework provided by hedgehog and is designed to seamlessly integrate with testthat'.

Add shiny inputs with one or more inline buttons that grow and shrink with inputs. Also add tool tips to input buttons and styling and messages for input validation.

This package provides a connector to the What3Words (http://what3words.com/) service, which represents each 3m by 3m square on earth with a unique trio of English-language words.

The XKCD color survey asked participants to name colours. Randall Munroe published the top thousand(roughly) names and their sRGB hex values. This package lets you use them.

Duplicated restaurant data (pre-processed and formatted) for entity resolution. This package contains formatted data from a data set that contains information about different restaurants, with the Zagats portion containing 331 records and the Fodors portion containing 533 records. The following variables are included in the data set: id, name, address, city, phone, type. The data set has a respective gold data set that provides information on which records match based on id.

This package provides a collection of functions related to the study of etiologic heterogeneity both across disease subtypes and across individual disease markers. The included functions allow one to quantify the extent of etiologic heterogeneity in the context of a case-control study, and provide p-values to test for etiologic heterogeneity across individual risk factors.

This package provides tools to visualize oligonucleotide patterns and sequence motif occurrences across a large set of sequences centred at a common reference point and sorted by a user defined feature.

This package provides alluvial plots for ggplot2. Alluvial plots use variable-width ribbons and stacked bar plots to represent multi-dimensional or repeated-measures data with categorical or ordinal variables.

This package provides tools for creating, viewing, and assessing qualitative palettes with many (20-30 or more) colors. See Coombes and colleagues (2019) https://doi:10.18637/jss.v090.c01.

This package provides two methods of plotting categorical scatter plots such that the arrangement of points within a category reflects the density of data at that region, and avoids over-plotting.

The HIP CPU Runtime is a header-only library that allows CPUs to execute unmodified HIP code. It is generic and does not assume a particular CPU vendor or architecture.

Launchy is helper class for launching applications in a fire and forget manner. The aim of Launchy is to provide a common approach to launching external applications from within Ruby programs.

Net::SSH is a pure-Ruby implementation of the SSH2 client protocol. It allows you to write programs that invoke and interact with processes on remote servers, via SSH2.

Estimates the density of a variable in a measurement error setup, potentially with an excess of zero values. For more details see Sarkar (2022) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2020.1782220>.

Set chunk hooks for R Markdown documents <https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/>, and improve user experience. For example, change units of figure sizes, benchmark chunks, and number lines on code blocks.
