This package provides a shiny application to construct age-specific life tables and fertility schedules from individual female daily egg records. The application computes age-specific survival and fertility functions and estimates key demographic parameters including the net reproductive rate, mean generation time, intrinsic rate of increase, finite rate of increase and doubling time. Optional confidence intervals can be obtained using percentile bootstrap or delete-1 jackknife resampling at the female level. Methods and definitions follow Stevens (2009) <doi:10.1007/978-0-387-89882-7> and Rossini et al. (2024) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0299598>.

Evaluates whether the relationship between two vectors is linear or nonlinear. Performs a test to determine how well a linear model fits the data compared to higher order polynomial models. Jhang et al. (2004) <doi:10.1043/1543-2165(2004)128%3C44:EOLITC%3E2.0.CO;2>.

The proposed method aims at predicting the longitudinal mean response trajectory by a kernel-based estimator. The kernel estimator is constructed by imposing weights based on subject-wise similarity on L2 metric space between predictor trajectories as well as time proximity. Users could also perform variable selections to derive functional predictors with predictive significance by the proposed multiplicative model with multivariate Gaussian kernels.

Learned Pattern Similarity (LPS) for time series, as described in Baydogan and Runger (2016) <doi:10.1007/s10618-015-0425-y>. Implements an approach to model the dependency structure in time series that generalizes the concept of autoregression to local auto-patterns. Generates a pattern-based representation of time series along with a similarity measure called Learned Pattern Similarity (LPS). Introduces a generalized autoregressive kernel. This package adapts C code from the randomForest package by Andy Liaw and Matthew Wiener, itself based on original Fortran code by Leo Breiman and Adele Cutler.

This package provides a diverse collection of georeferenced and spatial datasets from different domains including urban studies, housing markets, environmental monitoring, transportation, and socio-economic indicators.

Effectively simulates the discretization process inherent to Likert scales while minimizing distortion. It converts continuous latent variables into ordinal categories to generate Likert scale item responses. Particularly useful for accurately modeling and analyzing survey data that use Likert scales, especially when applying statistical techniques that require metric data.

This package provides a collection of tools for interactive manipulation of (spatial) data layers on leaflet web maps. Tools include editing of existing layers, creation of new layers through drawing of shapes (points, lines, polygons), deletion of shapes as well as cutting holes into existing shapes. Provides control over options to e.g. prevent self-intersection of polygons and lines or to enable/disable snapping to align shapes.

An easy-to-use ndjson (newline-delimited JSON') logger. It provides a set of wrappers for base R's message(), warning(), and stop() functions that maintain identical functionality, but also log the handler message to an ndjson log file. No change in existing code is necessary to use this package, and only a few additional adjustments are needed to fully utilize its potential.

An implementation of a method of extending a logistic regression model beyond linear effects of the co-variates. The extension in is constructed by first equating the logistic regression model to a naive Bayes model where all the margins are specified to follow natural exponential distributions conditional on Y, that is, a model for Y given X that is specified through the distribution of X given Y, where the columns of X are assumed to be mutually independent conditional on Y. Subsequently, the model is expanded by adding vine - copulas to relax the assumption of mutual independence, where pair-copulas are added in a stage-wise, forward selection manner. Some heuristics are employed during the process of selecting edges, as well as the families of pair-copula models. After each component is added, the parameters are updated by a (smaller) number of gradient steps to maximise the likelihood. When the algorithm has stopped adding edges, based the criterion that a new edge should improve the likelihood more than k times the number new parameters, the parameters are updated with a larger number of gradient steps, or until convergence.

This package implements a Gibbs sampler to do linear regression with multiple covariates, multiple responses, Gaussian measurement errors on covariates and responses, Gaussian intrinsic scatter, and a covariate prior distribution which is given by either a Gaussian mixture of specified size or a Dirichlet process with a Gaussian base distribution. Described further in Mantz (2016) <DOI:10.1093/mnras/stv3008>.

Lag-sequential analysis is a method of assessing of patterns (what tends to follow what?) in sequences of codes. The codes are typically for discrete behaviors or states. The functions in this package read a stream of codes, or a frequency transition matrix, and produce a variety of lag sequential statistics, including transitional frequencies, expected transitional frequencies, transitional probabilities, z values, adjusted residuals, Yule's Q values, likelihood ratio tests of stationarity across time and homogeneity across groups or segments, transformed kappas for unidirectional dependence, bidirectional dependence, parallel and nonparallel dominance, and significance levels based on both parametric and randomization tests. The methods are described in Bakeman & Quera (2011) <doi:10.1017/CBO9781139017343>, O'Connor (1999) <doi:10.3758/BF03200753>, Wampold & Margolin (1982) <doi:10.1037/0033-2909.92.3.755>, and Wampold (1995, ISBN:0-89391-919-5).

Identifying latent genetic interactions in genome-wide association studies using the Latent Interaction Testing (LIT) framework. LIT is a flexible kernel-based approach that leverages information across multiple traits to detect latent genetic interactions without specifying or observing the interacting variable (e.g., environment). LIT accepts standard PLINK files as inputs to analyze large genome-wide association studies.

This package provides tools for assessing equivalence of similar Logistic Regression models.

Input latitude and longitude values or an sf/sfc POINT object and get back the time zone in which they exist. Two methods are implemented. One is very fast and uses Rcpp in conjunction with data from the Javascript library (<https://github.com/darkskyapp/tz-lookup-oss/>). This method also works outside of countries borders and in international waters, however speed comes at the cost of accuracy - near time zone borders away from populated centres there is a chance that it will return the incorrect time zone. The other method is slower but more accurate - it uses the sf package to intersect points with a detailed map of time zones from here: <https://github.com/evansiroky/timezone-boundary-builder/>. The package also contains several utility functions for helping to understand and visualize time zones, such as listing of world time zones, including information about daylight savings times and their offsets from UTC. You can also plot a time zone to visualize the UTC offset over a year and when daylight savings times are in effect.

Estimates group transmission assortativity coefficients from transmission trees. Group transmission assortativity coefficients measure the tendency for individuals to transmit within their own group (e.g. age group, vaccination status, or location) compared to other groups. The package requires information on who infected whom, group membership for all individuals, and the relative sizes of each group in the population. For more details see Geismar et al. (2024) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0313037>.
