This package performs Levins loop analysis of qualitatively-specified complex causal systems. Loop analysis makes qualitative predictions of variable change in a system of causally interdependent variables, where "qualitative" means direct causal relationships and indirect causal effects are coded as sign only (i.e. increases, decreases, no change, and ambiguous). This implementation includes output support for graphs in .dot file format for use with visualization software such as graphviz (<https://graphviz.org>). LoopAnalyst provides tools for the construction and output of community matrices, computation and output of community effect matrices, tables of correlations, adjoint, absolute feedback, weighted feedback and weighted prediction matrices, change in life expectancy matrices, and feedback, path and loop enumeration tools.

See the ggplot2 website for more information regarding the specific capability of graphics.

Supervised learning techniques designed for the situation when the dimensionality exceeds the sample size have a tendency to overfit as the dimensionality of the data increases. To remedy this High dimensionality; low sample size (HDLSS) situation, we attempt to learn a lower-dimensional representation of the data before learning a classifier. That is, we project the data to a situation where the dimensionality is more manageable, and then are able to better apply standard classification or clustering techniques since we will have fewer dimensions to overfit. A number of previous works have focused on how to strategically reduce dimensionality in the unsupervised case, yet in the supervised HDLSS regime, few works have attempted to devise dimensionality reduction techniques that leverage the labels associated with the data. In this package and the associated manuscript Vogelstein et al. (2017) <arXiv:1709.01233>, we provide several methods for feature extraction, some utilizing labels and some not, along with easily extensible utilities to simplify cross-validative efforts to identify the best feature extraction method. Additionally, we include a series of adaptable benchmark simulations to serve as a standard for future investigative efforts into supervised HDLSS. Finally, we produce a comprehensive comparison of the included algorithms across a range of benchmark simulations and real data applications.

Outlier detection using leave-one-out kernel density estimates and extreme value theory. The bandwidth for kernel density estimates is computed using persistent homology, a technique in topological data analysis. Using peak-over-threshold method, a generalized Pareto distribution is fitted to the log of leave-one-out kde values to identify outliers.

The package converts R data onto input and data for LocalSolver, executes optimization and exposes optimization results as R data. LocalSolver (http://www.localsolver.com/) is an optimization engine developed by Innovation24 (http://www.innovation24.fr/). It is designed to solve large-scale mixed-variable non-convex optimization problems. The localsolver package is developed and maintained by WLOG Solutions (http://www.wlogsolutions.com/en/) in collaboration with Decision Support and Analysis Division at Warsaw School of Economics (http://www.sgh.waw.pl/en/).

The "Manual on Low-flow Estimation and Prediction" (Gustard & Demuth (2009, ISBN:978-92-63-11029-9)), published by the World Meteorological Organisation, gives a comprehensive summary on how to analyse stream flow data focusing on low-flows. This packages provides functions to compute the described statistics and produces plots similar to the ones in the manual.

This package provides tools to decompose differences in cohort health expectancy (HE) by age and cause using longitudinal data. The package implements a novel longitudinal attribution method based on a semiparametric additive hazards model with time-dependent covariates, specifically designed to address interval censoring and semi-competing risks via a copula framework. The resulting age-cause-specific contributions to disability prevalence and death probability can be used to quantify and decompose differences in cohort HE between groups. The package supports stepwise replacement decomposition algorithms and is applicable to cohort-based health disparity research across diverse populations. Related methods include Sun et al. (2023) <doi:10.1177/09622802221133552>.

This package performs adjusted inferences based on model objects fitted, using maximum likelihood estimation, by the extreme value analysis packages eva <https://cran.r-project.org/package=eva>, evd <https://cran.r-project.org/package=evd>, evir <https://cran.r-project.org/package=evir>, extRemes <https://cran.r-project.org/package=extRemes>, fExtremes <https://cran.r-project.org/package=fExtremes>, ismev <https://cran.r-project.org/package=ismev>, mev <https://cran.r-project.org/package=mev>, POT <https://cran.r-project.org/package=POT> and texmex <https://cran.r-project.org/package=texmex>. Adjusted standard errors and an adjusted loglikelihood are provided, using the chandwich package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=chandwich> and the object-oriented features of the sandwich package <https://cran.r-project.org/package=sandwich>. The adjustment is based on a robust sandwich estimator of the parameter covariance matrix, based on the methodology in Chandler and Bate (2007) <doi:10.1093/biomet/asm015>. This can be used for cluster correlated data when interest lies in the parameters of the marginal distributions, or for performing inferences that are robust to certain types of model misspecification. Univariate extreme value models, including regression models, are supported.
