HIGHT(HIGh security and light weigHT) algorithm is a block cipher encryption algorithm developed to provide confidentiality in computing environments that demand low power consumption and lightweight, such as RFID(Radio-Frequency Identification) and USN(Ubiquitous Sensor Network), or in mobile environments that require low power consumption and lightweight, such as smartphones and smart cards. Additionally, it is designed with a simple structure that enables it to be used with basic arithmetic operations, XOR, and circular shifts in 8-bit units. This algorithm was designed to consider both safety and efficiency in a very simple structure suitable for limited environments, compared to the former 128-bit encryption algorithm SEED. In December 2010, it became an ISO(International Organization for Standardization) standard. The detailed procedure is described in Hong et al. (2006) <doi:10.1007/11894063_4>.

This package provides functions to compute small area estimates based on a basic area or unit-level model. The model is fit using restricted maximum likelihood, or in a hierarchical Bayesian way. In the latter case numerical integration is used to average over the posterior density for the between-area variance. The output includes the model fit, small area estimates and corresponding mean squared errors, as well as some model selection measures. Additional functions provide means to compute aggregate estimates and mean squared errors, to minimally adjust the small area estimates to benchmarks at a higher aggregation level, and to graphically compare different sets of small area estimates.

This package provides methods to test whether time series is consistent with white noise. Two new tests based on Haar wavelets and general wavelets described by Nason and Savchev (2014) <doi:10.1002/sta4.69> are provided and, for comparison purposes this package also implements the B test of Bartlett (1967) <doi:10.2307/2333850>. Functionality is provided to compute an approximation to the theoretical power of the general wavelet test in the case of general ARMA alternatives.

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> .

This package implements the high-dimensional two-sample test proposed by Zhang (2019) <http://hdl.handle.net/2097/40235>. It also implements the test proposed by Srivastava, Katayama, and Kano (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2012.08.014>. These tests are particularly suitable to high dimensional data from two populations for which the classical multivariate Hotelling's T-square test fails due to sample sizes smaller than dimensionality. In this case, the ZWL and ZWLm tests proposed by Zhang (2019) <http://hdl.handle.net/2097/40235>, referred to as zwl_test() in this package, provide a reliable and powerful test.

Automatically displays the order and spatial weighting matrix of the distance between locations. This concept was derived from the research of Mubarak, Aslanargun, and Siklar (2021) <doi:10.52403/ijrr.20211150> and Mubarak, Aslanargun, and Siklar (2022) <doi:10.17654/0972361722052>. Distance data between locations can be imported from Ms. Excel', maps package or created in R programming directly. This package also provides 5 simulations of distances between locations derived from fictitious data, the maps package, and from research by Mubarak, Aslanargun, and Siklar (2022) <doi:10.29244/ijsa.v6i1p90-100>.

This package provides semiparametric sufficient dimension reduction for central mean subspaces for heterogeneous data defined by combinations of binary factors (such as chronic conditions). Subspaces are estimated to be hierarchically nested to respect the structure of subpopulations with overlapping characteristics. This package is an implementation of the proposed methodology of Huling and Yu (2021) <doi:10.1111/biom.13546>.

Takes the MinT implementation of the hts'<https://cran.r-project.org/package=hts> package and adapts it to allow degenerate hierarchical structures. Instead of the "nodes" argument, this function takes an S matrix which is more versatile in the structures it allows. For a demo, see Steinmeister and Pauly (2024)<doi:10.15488/17729>. The MinT algorithm is based on Wickramasuriya et al. (2019)<doi:10.1080/01621459.2018.1448825>.

The seed germination process starts with water uptake by the seed and ends with the protrusion of radicle and plumule under varying temperatures and soil water potential. Hydrotime is a way to describe the relationship between water potential and seed germination rates at germination percentages. One important quantity before applying hydrotime modeling of germination percentages is to consider the proportion of viable seeds that could germinate under saturated conditions. This package can be used to apply correction factors at various water potentials before estimating parameters like stress tolerance, and uniformity of the hydrotime model. Three different distributions namely, Gaussian, Logistic, and Extreme value distributions have been considered to fit the model to the seed germination time course. Details can be found in Bradford (2002) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/4046371>, and Bradford and Still(2004) <https://www.jstor.org/stable/23433495>.

This package implements an empirical approach referred to as PeakTrace which uses multiple hydrographs to detect and follow hydropower plant-specific hydropeaking waves at the sub-catchment scale and to describe how hydropeaking flow parameters change along the longitudinal flow path. The method is based on the identification of associated events and uses (linear) regression models to describe translation and retention processes between neighboring hydrographs. Several regression model results are combined to arrive at a power plant-specific model. The approach is proposed and validated in Greimel et al. (2022) <doi:10.1002/rra.3978>. The identification of associated events is based on the event detection implemented in hydropeak'.

This package implements Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) with a hyperbolic orientation using a non-linear programming solver. It enables flexible estimations with weight restrictions, non-discretionary variables, and a generalized distance function. Additionally, it allows for the calculation of slacks and super-efficiency scores. The methods are detailed in à ttl et al. (2023), <doi:10.1016/j.dajour.2023.100343>. Furthermore, the package provides a non-linear profitability estimation built upon the DEA framework.

Method and tool for generating hybrid time series forecasts using an error remodeling approach. These forecasting approaches utilize a recursive technique for modeling the linearity of the series using a linear method (e.g., ARIMA, Theta, etc.) and then models (forecasts) the residuals of the linear forecaster using non-linear neural networks (e.g., ANN, ARNN, etc.). The hybrid architectures comprise three steps: firstly, the linear patterns of the series are forecasted which are followed by an error re-modeling step, and finally, the forecasts from both the steps are combined to produce the final output. This method additionally provides the confidence intervals as needed. Ten different models can be implemented using this package. This package generates different types of hybrid error correction models for time series forecasting based on the algorithms by Zhang. (2003), Chakraborty et al. (2019), Chakraborty et al. (2020), Bhattacharyya et al. (2021), Chakraborty et al. (2022), and Bhattacharyya et al.

Inference concerning equilibrium and random mating in autopolyploids. Methods are available to test for equilibrium and random mating at any even ploidy level (>2) in the presence of double reduction at biallelic loci. For autopolyploid populations in equilibrium, methods are available to estimate the degree of double reduction. We also provide functions to calculate genotype frequencies at equilibrium, or after one or several rounds of random mating, given rates of double reduction. The main function is hwefit().

Simulates stochastic hybrid models for transmission of infectious diseases in dynamic networks. It is a metapopulation model in which each node in the network is a sub-population and disease spreads within nodes and among them, combining two approaches: stochastic simulation algorithm (<doi:10.1146/annurev.physchem.58.032806.104637>) and individual-based approach, respectively. Equations that models spread within nodes are customizable and there are two link types among nodes: migration and influence (commuting). More information in Fernando S. Marques, Jose H. H.
