The original package description was published as Goslee (2011) <doi:10.18637/jss.v043.i04>, and details of the topographic corrections in Goslee (2012) <doi:10.14358/PERS.78.9.973>.

Generate and correlate synthetic Likert and rating-scale data with predefined means, standard deviations, Cronbach's Alpha, Factor Loading table, coefficients, and other summary statistics. Worked examples and documentation are available in the package articles, accessible via the package website, <https://winzarh.github.io/LikertMakeR/>.

An approach to analyzing Likert response items, with an emphasis on visualizations. The stacked bar plot is the preferred method for presenting Likert results. Tabular results are also implemented along with density plots to assist researchers in determining whether Likert responses can be used quantitatively instead of qualitatively. See the likert(), summary.likert(), and plot.likert() functions to get started.

Estimation of life expectancy and Life Years Lost (LYL, or lillies for short) for a given population, for example those with a given disease or condition. In addition, the package can be used to compare estimates from different populations, or to estimate confidence intervals. Technical details of the method are available in Plana-Ripoll et al. (2020) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0228073> and Andersen (2017) <doi:10.1002/sim.7357>.

Change-point detection algorithm with label constraints and a penalty for each change outside of labels. Read TD Hocking, A Srivastava (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00180-022-01238-z> for details.

This package implements the letter value boxplot which extends the standard boxplot to deal with both larger and smaller number of data points by dynamically selecting the appropriate number of letter values to display.

This package contains functions for a flexible varying-coefficient landmark model by incorporating multiple short-term events into the prediction of long-term survival probability. For more information about landmark prediction please see Li, W., Ning, J., Zhang, J., Li, Z., Savitz, S.I., Tahanan, A., Rahbar.M.H., (2023+). "Enhancing Long-term Survival Prediction with Multiple Short-term Events: Landmarking with A Flexible Varying Coefficient Model".

R6 classes to model traditional life insurance contracts like annuities, whole life insurances or endowments. Such life insurance contracts provide a guaranteed interest and are not directly linked to the performance of a particular investment vehicle, but they typically provide (discretionary) profit participation. This package provides a framework to model such contracts in a very generic (cash-flow-based) way and includes modelling profit participation schemes, dynamic increases or more general contract layers, as well as contract changes (like sum increases or premium waivers). All relevant quantities like premium decomposition, reserves and benefits over the whole contract period are calculated and potentially exported to Excel'. Mortality rates are given using the MortalityTables package.

This package provides modular, graph-based agents powered by large language models (LLMs) for intelligent task execution in R. Supports structured workflows for tasks such as forecasting, data visualization, feature engineering, data wrangling, data cleaning, SQL', code generation, weather reporting, and research-driven question answering. Each agent performs iterative reasoning: recommending steps, generating R code, executing, debugging, and explaining results. Includes built-in support for packages such as tidymodels', modeltime', plotly', ggplot2', and prophet'. Designed for analysts, developers, and teams building intelligent, reproducible AI workflows in R. Compatible with LLM providers such as OpenAI', Anthropic', Groq', and Ollama'. Inspired by the Python package langagent'.

Interact with LaminDB'. LaminDB is an open-source data framework for biology. This package allows you to query and download data from LaminDB instances.

Runtime for serving containers that can execute R code on the AWS Lambda serverless compute service <https://aws.amazon.com/lambda/>. Provides the necessary functionality for handling the various endpoints required for accepting new input and sending responses.

Affords an alternative, vector-based syntax to lavaan', as well as other convenience functions such as naming paths and defining indirect links automatically, in addition to convenience formatting optimized for a publication and script sharing workflow.

Suite of R functions for the estimation of the local false discovery rate (LFDR) using Type II maximum likelihood estimation (MLE).

Implementation of the LoTTA (Local Trimmed Taylor Approximation) model described in "Bayesian Regression Discontinuity Design with Unknown Cutoff" by Kowalska, van de Wiel, van der Pas (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2406.11585>.

This package provides a very simple implementation of a class for longitudinal data.

This package provides a way to fit Parsimonious Finite Mixtures of Multivariate Elliptical Leptokurtic-Normals. Two methods of estimation are implemented.

Estimate, fit and compare Structural Equation Models (SEM) and network models (Gaussian Graphical Models; GGM) using OpenMx. Allows for two possible generalizations to include GGMs in SEM: GGMs can be used between latent variables (latent network modeling; LNM) or between residuals (residual network modeling; RNM). For details, see Epskamp, Rhemtulla and Borsboom (2017) <doi:10.1007/s11336-017-9557-x>.

Estimates marginal likelihood from a posterior sample using the method described in Wang et al. (2023) <doi:10.1093/sysbio/syad007>, which does not require evaluation of any additional points and requires only the log of the unnormalized posterior density for each sampled parameter vector.

Helps to render interlinear glossed linguistic examples in html rmarkdown documents and then semi-automatically compiles the list of glosses at the end of the document. It also provides a database of linguistic glosses.

This package provides regularized structural equation modeling (regularized SEM) with non-smooth penalty functions (e.g., lasso) building on lavaan'. The package is heavily inspired by the ['regsem'](<https://github.com/Rjacobucci/regsem>) and ['lslx'](<https://github.com/psyphh/lslx>) packages.
