Linear dimension reduction subspaces can be uniquely defined using orthogonal projection matrices. This package provides tools to compute distances between such subspaces and to compute the average subspace. For details see Liski, E.Nordhausen K., Oja H., Ruiz-Gazen A. (2016) Combining Linear Dimension Reduction Subspaces <doi:10.1007/978-81-322-3643-6_7>.

Set of tools for analyzing vertical fuel continuity at the tree level using Airborne Laser Scanning data. The workflow consisted of: 1) calculating the vertical height profiles of each segmented tree; 2) identifying gaps and fuel layers; 3) estimating the distance between fuel layers; and 4) retrieving the fuel layers base height and depth. Additionally, other functions recalculate previous metrics after considering distances greater than certain threshold. Moreover, the package calculates: i) the percentage of Leaf Area Density comprised in each fuel layer, ii) remove fuel layers with Leaf Area Density (LAD) percentage less than 10, and iii) recalculate the distances among the reminder ones. On the other hand, it identifies the crown base height (CBH) based on different criteria: the fuel layer with the highest LAD percentage and the fuel layers located at the largest- and at the last-distance. When there is only one fuel layer, it also identifies the CBH performing a segmented linear regression (breaking points) on the cumulative sum of LAD as a function of height. Finally, a collection of plotting functions is developed to represent: i) the initial gaps and fuel layers; ii) the fuels base height, depths and gaps with distances greater than certain threshold and, iii) the CBH based on different criteria. The methods implemented in this package are original and have not been published elsewhere.

This package provides string similarity calculations inspired by the Python thefuzz package.

This package provides functions for fitting a functional principal components logit regression model in four different situations: ordinary and filtered functional principal components of functional predictors, included in the model according to their variability explanation power, and according to their prediction ability by stepwise methods. The proposed methods were developed in Escabias et al (2004) <doi:10.1080/10485250310001624738> and Escabias et al (2005) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2005.03.011>.

This is for code management functions, NLP tools, a Monty Hall simulator, and for implementing my own variable reduction technique called Feed Reduction. The Feed Reduction technique is not yet published, but is merely a tool for implementing a series of binary neural networks meant for reducing data into N dimensions, where N is the number of possible values of the response variable.

Fit response surfaces for datasets with latent-variable Gaussian process modeling, predict responses for new inputs, and plot latent variables locations in the latent space (only 1D or 2D). The input variables of the datasets can be quantitative, qualitative/categorical or mixed. The output variable of the datasets is a scalar (quantitative). The optimization of the likelihood function is done using a successive approximation/relaxation algorithm similar to another GP modeling package "GPM". The modeling method is published in "A Latent Variable Approach to Gaussian Process Modeling with Qualitative and Quantitative Factors" by Yichi Zhang, Siyu Tao, Wei Chen, and Daniel W. Apley (2018) <arXiv:1806.07504>. The package is developed in IDEAL of Northwestern University.

This package provides tools for creating and using lenses to simplify data manipulation. Lenses are composable getter/setter pairs for working with data in a purely functional way. Inspired by the Haskell library lens (Kmett, 2012) <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens>. For a fairly comprehensive (and highly technical) history of lenses please see the lens wiki <https://github.com/ekmett/lens/wiki/History-of-Lenses>.

European Commission's Labour Market Policy (LMP) database (<https://webgate.ec.europa.eu/empl/redisstat/databrowser/explore/all/lmp?lang=en&display=card&sort=category>) provides information on labour market interventions, which are government actions to help and support the unemployed and other disadvantaged groups in the transition from unemployment or inactivity to work. It covers the EU countries and Norway. This package provides functions for downloading and importing the LMP data and metadata (codelists).

This package provides a set of functions that allow stationary analysis and locally stationary time series analysis.

Compute and visualize using the visNetwork package all the bivariate correlations of a dataframe. Several and different types of correlation coefficients (Pearson's r, Spearman's rho, Kendall's tau, distance correlation, maximal information coefficient and equal-freq discretization-based maximal normalized mutual information) are used according to the variable couple type (quantitative vs categorical, quantitative vs quantitative, categorical vs categorical).

Implementation of the Swiss Confederation's standard analysis model for salary analyses <www.ebg.admin.ch/en/equal-pay-analysis-with-logib> in R. The analysis is run at company-level and the model is intended for medium-sized and large companies. It can technically be used with 50 or more employees (apprentices, trainees/interns and expats are not included in the analysis). Employees with at least 100 employees are required by the Gender Equality Act to conduct an equal pay analysis. This package allows users to run the equal salary analysis in R, providing additional transparency with respect to the methodology and simple automation possibilities.

This package provides tools to teach students elemental statistics. The main topics covered are descriptive statistics, probability models (discrete and continuous variables) and statistical inference (confidence intervals and hypothesis tests). One of the main advantages of this package is that allows the user to read quite a variety of types of data files with one unique command. Moreover it includes shortcuts to simple but up-to-now not in R descriptive features such a complete frequency table or an histogram with the optimal number of intervals. Related to model distributions (both discrete and continuous), the package allows the student to easy plot the mass/density function, distribution function and quantile function just detailing as input arguments the known population parameters. The inference related tools are basically confidence interval and hypothesis testing. Having defined independent commands for these two tools makes it easier for the student to understand what the software is performing, and it also helps the student to have a better knowledge on which specific tool they need to use in each situation. Moreover, the hypothesis testing commands provide not only the numeric result on the screen but also a very intuitive graph (which includes the statistic distribution, the observed value of the statistic, the rejection area and the p-value) that is very useful for the student to visualise the process. The regression section includes up to now, a simple linear model, with one single command the student can obtain the numeric summary as well as the corresponding diagram with the adjusted regression model and a legend with basic information (formula of the adjusted model and R-squared).

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.
