User-friendly and fast set of functions for estimating parameters of hierarchical Bayesian species distribution models (Latimer and others 2006 <doi:10.1890/04-0609>). Such models allow interpreting the observations (occurrence and abundance of a species) as a result of several hierarchical processes including ecological processes (habitat suitability, spatial dependence and anthropogenic disturbance) and observation processes (species detectability). Hierarchical species distribution models are essential for accurately characterizing the environmental response of species, predicting their probability of occurrence, and assessing uncertainty in the model results.

This package provides various tests for comparing high-dimensional mean vectors in two sample populations.

We provide an R tool for computation and nonparametric plug-in estimation of Highest Density Regions (HDRs) and general level sets in the directional setting. Concretely, circular and spherical HDRs can be reconstructed from a data sample following Saavedra-Nieves and Crujeiras (2021) <doi:10.1007/s11634-021-00457-4>. This library also contains two real datasets in the circular and spherical settings. The first one concerns a problem from animal orientation studies and the second one is related to earthquakes occurrences.

This package provides tools for the estimation of Heckman selection models with robust variance-covariance matrices. It includes functions for computing the bread and meat matrices, as well as clustered standard errors for generalized Heckman models, see Fernando de Souza Bastos and Wagner Barreto-Souza and Marc G. Genton (2022, ISSN: <https://www.jstor.org/stable/27164235>). The package also offers cluster-robust inference with sandwich estimators, and tools for handling issues related to eigenvalues in covariance matrices.

An implementation of an algorithm for outlier detection that can handle a) data with a mixed categorical and continuous variables, b) many columns of data, c) many rows of data, d) outliers that mask other outliers, and e) both unidimensional and multidimensional datasets. Unlike ad hoc methods found in many machine learning papers, HDoutliers is based on a distributional model that uses probabilities to determine outliers.

Univariate agglomerative hierarchical clustering with a comprehensive list of choices of a linkage function in O(n*log n) time. The better algorithmic time complexity is paired with an efficient C++ implementation.

The HMS (Hierarchic Memetic Strategy) is a composite global optimization strategy consisting of a multi-population evolutionary strategy and some auxiliary methods. The HMS makes use of a dynamically-evolving data structure that provides an organization among the component populations. It is a tree with a fixed maximal height and variable internal node degree. Each component population is governed by a particular evolutionary engine. This package provides a simple R implementation with examples of using different genetic algorithms as the population engines. References: J. Sawicki, M. Å oÅ , M. SmoÅ ka, J. Alvarez-Aramberri (2022) <doi:10.1007/s11047-020-09836-w>.

This package provides a comprehensive suite of spatial functions created to analyze and assess data heterogeneity and climate variability in spatial datasets. This package is specifically designed to address the challenges associated with characterizing and understanding complex spatial patterns in environmental and climate-related data.

Bipartite graph-based hierarchical clustering, developed for pharmacogenomic datasets and datasets sharing the same data structure. The goal is to construct a hierarchical clustering of groups of samples based on association patterns between two sets of variables. In the context of pharmacogenomic datasets, the samples are cell lines, and the two sets of variables are typically expression levels and drug sensitivity values. For this method, sparse canonical correlation analysis from Lee, W., Lee, D., Lee, Y. and Pawitan, Y. (2011) <doi:10.2202/1544-6115.1638> is first applied to extract association patterns for each group of samples. Then, a nuclear norm-based dissimilarity measure is used to construct a dissimilarity matrix between groups based on the extracted associations. Finally, hierarchical clustering is applied.

Cross-species identification of novel gene candidates using the NCBI web service is provided. Further, sets of miRNA target genes can be identified by using the targetscan.org API.

This package implements the simpler and faster heat index, which matches the values of the original 1979 heat index and its 2022 extension for air temperatures above 300 K (27 C, 80 F) and with only minor differences at lower temperatures. Also implements an algorithm for calculating the thermodynamic (and psychrometric) wet-bulb (and ice-bulb) temperature.

This package provides tools to estimate, compare, and visualize healthcare resource utilization using data derived from electronic health records or real-world evidence sources. The package supports pre index and post index analysis, patient cohort comparison, and customizable summaries and visualizations for clinical and health economics research. Methods implemented are based on Scott et al. (2022) <doi:10.1080/13696998.2022.2037917> and Xia et al. (2024) <doi:10.14309/ajg.0000000000002901>.

We provide functions for identifying the core community phylogeny in any microbiome, drawing phylogenetic Venn diagrams, calculating the core Faithâ s PD for a set of communities, and calculating the core UniFrac distance between two sets of communities. All functions rely on construction of a core community phylogeny, which is a phylogeny where branches are defined based on their presence in multiple samples from a single type of habitat. Our package provides two options for constructing the core community phylogeny, a tip-based approach, where the core community phylogeny is identified based on incidence of leaf nodes and a branch-based approach, where the core community phylogeny is identified based on incidence of individual branches. We suggest use of the microViz package.

Compute 21 summary measures of health inequality and its corresponding confidence intervals for ordered and non-ordered dimensions using disaggregated data. Measures for ordered dimensions (e.g., Slope Index of Inequality, Absolute Concentration Index) also accept individual and survey data.

Raster based flood modelling internally using hyd1d', an R package to interpolate 1d water level and gauging data. The package computes flood extent and duration through strategies originally developed for INFORM', an ArcGIS'-based hydro-ecological modelling framework. It does not provide a full, physical hydraulic modelling algorithm, but a simplified, near real time GIS approach for flood extent and duration modelling. Computationally demanding annual flood durations have been computed already and data products were published by Weber (2022) <doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.948042>.

Uses support vector machines to identify a perfectly separating hyperplane (linear or curvilinear) between two entities in high-dimensional space. If this plane exists, the entities do not overlap. Applications include overlap detection in morphological, resource or environmental dimensions. More details can be found in: Brown et al. (2020) <doi:10.1111/2041-210X.13363> .
