Convert an R Markdown documents into an .xlsx spreadsheet reports with the knitxl() function, which works similarly to knit() from the knitr package. The generated report can be opened in Excel or similar software for further analysis and presentation.

This package provides a fast and computationally efficient algorithm designed to enable researchers to efficiently and quickly extract semantically-related keywords using a fitted embedding model. For more details about the methods applied, see Chester (2025). <doi:10.17605/OSF.IO/5B7RQ>.

Assists researchers in choosing Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) in a network to help disseminate or encourage adoption of an innovation by other network members. Potential KOL teams are evaluated using the ABCDE framework (Neal et al., 2025 <doi:10.31219/osf.io/3vxy9_v1>). This framework which considers: (1) the team members Availability, (2) the Breadth of the team's network coverage, (3) the Cost of recruiting a team of a given size, and (4) the Diversity of the team's members, (5) which are pooled into a single Evaluation score.

This package contains kernel smoothing tools designed for use by historical dialectologists and philologists for exploring spatial and temporal patterns in noisy historical language data, such as that obtained from historical texts. The main way in which these might differ from other implementations of kernel smoothing is that they assume that the function (linguistic variable) being explored has the form of the relative frequency of a series of discrete possibilities (linguistic variants). This package also offers a way of exploring distributions in 2-dimensional space and in time with separate kernels, and tools for identifying appropriate bandwidths for these.

This package provides methods for selecting the optimal bandwidth in kernel density estimation for dependent samples, such as those generated by Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). Implements a modified biased cross-validation (mBCV) approach that accounts for sample dependence, improving the accuracy of estimated density functions.

We developed a package Keyboard for designing single-agent, drug-combination, or phase I/II dose-finding clinical trials. The Keyboard designs are novel early phase trial designs that can be implemented simply and transparently, similar to the 3+3 design, but yield excellent performance, comparable to those of more-complicated, model-based designs (Yan F, Mandrekar SJ, Yuan Y (2017) <doi:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-17-0220>, Li DH, Whitmore JB, Guo W, Ji Y. (2017) <doi:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-16-1125>, Liu S, Johnson VE (2016) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxv040>, Zhou Y, Lee JJ, Yuan Y (2019) <doi:10.1002/sim.8475>, Pan H, Lin R, Yuan Y (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2020.105972>). The Keyboard package provides tools for designing, conducting, and analyzing single-agent, drug-combination, and phase I/II dose-finding clinical trials.

Distance metrics for mixed-type data consisting of continuous, nominal, and ordinal variables. This methodology uses additive and product kernels to calculate similarity functions and metrics, and selects variables relevant to the underlying distance through bandwidth selection via maximum similarity cross-validation. These methods can be used in any distance-based algorithm, such as distance-based clustering. For further details, we refer the reader to Ghashti and Thompson (2024) <doi:10.1007/s00357-024-09493-z> for dkps() methodology, and Ghashti (2024) <doi:10.14288/1.0443975> for dkss() methodology.

Fits nonparametric item and option characteristic curves using kernel smoothing. It allows for optimal selection of the smoothing bandwidth using cross-validation and a variety of exploratory plotting tools. The kernel smoothing is based on methods described in Silverman, B.W. (1986). Density Estimation for Statistics and Data Analysis. Chapman & Hall, London.

Tests the homogeneity of intraclass kappa statistics obtained from independent studies or a stratified study with binary results. It is desired to compare the kappa statistics obtained in multi-center studies or in a single stratified study to give a common or summary kappa using all available information. If the homogeneity test of these kappa statistics is not rejected, then it is possible to make inferences over a single kappa statistic that summarizes all the studies.

This is designed for use with an arbitrary set of equations with an arbitrary set of unknowns. The user selects "fixed" values for enough unknowns to leave as many variables as there are equations, which in most cases means the system is properly defined and a unique solution exists. The function, the fixed values and initial values for the remaining unknowns are fed to a nonlinear backsolver. The original version of "TK!Solver" , now a product of Universal Technical Systems (<https://www.uts.com>) was the inspiration for this function.

Detect and test for changes in covariance structures of functional data, as well as changepoint detection for multivariate data more generally. Method for detecting non-stationarity in resting state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) scans as seen in Ramsay, K., & Chenouri, S.

This package implements estimation procedures for Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) and Nonlinear ARDL (NARDL) models, which allow researchers to investigate both short- and long-run relationships in time series data under mixed orders of integration. The package supports simultaneous modeling of symmetric and asymmetric regressors, flexible treatment of short-run and long-run asymmetries, and automated equation handling. It includes several cointegration testing approaches such as the Pesaran-Shin-Smith F and t bounds tests, the Banerjee error correction test, and the restricted ECM test, together with diagnostic tools including Wald tests for asymmetry, ARCH tests, and stability procedures (CUSUM and CUSUMQ). Methodological foundations are provided in Pesaran, Shin, and Smith (2001) <doi:10.1016/S0304-4076(01)00049-5> and Shin, Yu, and Greenwood-Nimmo (2014, ISBN:9780123855079).

This package provides a set of tools to analyze texts. Includes, amongst others, functions for automatic language detection, hyphenation, several indices of lexical diversity (e.g., type token ratio, HD-D/vocd-D, MTLD) and readability (e.g., Flesch, SMOG, LIX, Dale-Chall). Basic import functions for language corpora are also provided, to enable frequency analyses (supports Celex and Leipzig Corpora Collection file formats) and measures like tf-idf. Note: For full functionality a local installation of TreeTagger is recommended. It is also recommended to not load this package directly, but by loading one of the available language support packages from the l10n repository <https://undocumeantit.github.io/repos/l10n/>. koRpus also includes a plugin for the R GUI and IDE RKWard, providing graphical dialogs for its basic features. The respective R package rkward cannot be installed directly from a repository, as it is a part of RKWard. To make full use of this feature, please install RKWard from <https://rkward.kde.org> (plugins are detected automatically). Due to some restrictions on CRAN, the full package sources are only available from the project homepage. To ask for help, report bugs, request features, or discuss the development of the package, please subscribe to the koRpus-dev mailing list (<https://korpusml.reaktanz.de>).

Clustering typically assigns data points into discrete groups, but the clusters can sometimes be indistinct. Cluster sharpening adjusts an existing clustering to create contrast between groups. This package provides a general interface for cluster sharpening along with several implementations based on different excision criteria.

Cubic spline fitting along with knot selection, includes support for additional variables.

Many data science problems reduce to operations on very tall, skinny matrices. However, sometimes these matrices can be so tall that they are difficult to work with, or do not even fit into main memory. One strategy to deal with such objects is to distribute their rows across several processors. To this end, we offer an S4 class for tall, skinny, distributed matrices, called the shaq'. We also provide many useful numerical methods and statistics operations for operating on these distributed objects. The naming is a bit "tongue-in-cheek", with the class a play on the fact that Shaquille ONeal ('Shaq') is very tall, and he starred in the film Kazaam'.
