This package provides more than 550 data sets of actual election results. Each of the data sets includes aggregate party and candidate outcomes at the voting unit (polling stations) level and two-way cross-tabulated results at the district level. These data sets can be used to assess ecological inference algorithms devised for estimating RxC (global) ecological contingency tables using exclusively aggregate results from voting units.

The Futureverse is a set of packages for parallel and distributed processing with the future package at its core, cf. Bengtsson (2021) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2021-048>. This package is designed to make it easy to install common Futureverse packages in a single step. This package is intended for end-users, interactive use, and R scripts. Packages must not list it as a dependency - instead, explicitly declare each Futureverse package as a dependency as needed.

The HBV hydrological model (Bergström, S. and Lindström, G., (2015) <doi:10.1002/hyp.10510>) has been split in modules to allow the user to build his/her own model. This version was developed by the author in IANIGLA-CONICET (Instituto Argentino de Nivologia, Glaciologia y Ciencias Ambientales - Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Cientificas y Tecnicas) for hydroclimatic studies in the Andes. HBV.IANIGLA incorporates routines for clean and debris covered glacier melt simulations.

This package provides a comprehensive tool for almost all existing multiple testing methods for discrete data. The package also provides some novel multiple testing procedures controlling FWER/FDR for discrete data. Given discrete p-values and their domains, the [method].p.adjust function returns adjusted p-values, which can be used to compare with the nominal significant level alpha and make decisions. For users convenience, the functions also provide the output option for printing decision rules.

This package provides intuitive functions for caching R objects, encouraging reproducible, restartable, and distributed R analysis. The user selects a location to store caches, and then provides nothing more than a cache name and instructions (R code) for how to produce the R object. Also provides some advanced options like environment assignments, recreating or reloading caches, and cluster compute bindings (using the batchtools package) making it flexible enough for use in large-scale data analysis projects.

Offers a solution for the unavailability of raw data in most anthropological studies by facilitating the calculations of several sexual dimorphism related analyses using the published summary statistics of metric data (mean, standard deviation and sex specific sample size) as illustrated by the works of Relethford, J. H., & Hodges, D. C. (1985) <doi:10.1002/ajpa.1330660105>, Greene, D. L. (1989) <doi:10.1002/ajpa.1330790113> and Konigsberg, L. W. (1991) <doi:10.1002/ajpa.1330840110>.

AnyStyle is a very fast and smart parser for academic reference lists and bibliographies. AnyStyle uses powerful machine learning heuristics based on Conditional Random Fields and aims to make it easy to train the model with data that is relevant to your parsing needs.

This package provides the Ruby module AnyStyle. AnyStyle can also be used via the anystyle command-line utility or a web application, though the later has not yet been packaged for Guix.

This package provides a set of user-friendly functions designed to fill gaps in existing introductory biostatistics R tools, making it easier for newcomers to perform basic biostatistical analyses without needing advanced programming skills. The methods implemented in this package are based on the works: Connor (1987) <doi:10.2307/2531961> Fleiss, Levin, & Paik (2013, ISBN:978-1-118-62561-3) Levin & Chen (1999) <doi:10.1080/00031305.1999.10474431> McNemar (1947) <doi:10.1007/BF02295996>.

Variable selection for Gaussian model-based clustering as implemented in the mclust package. The methodology allows to find the (locally) optimal subset of variables in a data set that have group/cluster information. A greedy or headlong search can be used, either in a forward-backward or backward-forward direction, with or without sub-sampling at the hierarchical clustering stage for starting mclust models. By default the algorithm uses a sequential search, but parallelisation is also available.

Access and manage the application programming interface (API) of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) ReliefWeb disaster events at <https://reliefweb.int/disasters>. The package requires a minimal number of dependencies. It offers functionality to retrieve a user-defined sample of disaster events from ReliefWeb, providing an easy alternative to scraping the ReliefWeb website. It enables a seamless integration of regular data updates into the research work flow.

This package provides tools for estimate (joint) cumulants and (joint) products of cumulants of a random sample using (multivariate) k-statistics and (multivariate) polykays, unbiased estimators with minimum variance. Tools for generating univariate and multivariate Faa di Bruno's formula and related polynomials, such as Bell polynomials, generalized complete Bell polynomials, partition polynomials and generalized partition polynomials. For more details see Di Nardo E., Guarino G., Senato D. (2009) <arXiv:0807.5008>, <arXiv:1012.6008>.

L-systems or Lindenmayer systems are parallel rewriting systems which can be used to simulate biological forms and certain kinds of fractals. Briefly, in an L-system a series of symbols in a string are replaced iteratively according to rules to give a more complex string. Eventually, the symbols are translated into turtle graphics for plotting. Wikipedia has a very good introduction: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L-system This package provides basic functions for exploring L-systems.

The mlrMBO package can ordinarily not be used for optimization within mlr3', because of incompatibilities of their respective class systems. mlrintermbo offers a compatibility interface that provides mlrMBO as an mlr3tuning Tuner object, for tuning of machine learning algorithms within mlr3', as well as a bbotk Optimizer object for optimization of general objective functions using the bbotk black box optimization framework. The control parameters of mlrMBO are faithfully reproduced as a paradox ParamSet'.

This package provides quality control (QC), normalization, and batch effect correction operations for NanoString nCounter data, Talhouk et al. (2016) <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0153844>. Various metrics are used to determine which samples passed or failed QC. Gene expression should first be normalized to housekeeping genes, before a reference-based approach is used to adjust for batch effects. Raw NanoString data can be imported in the form of Reporter Code Count (RCC) files.

This package provides functions for solving systems of delay differential equations by interfacing with numerical routines written by Simon N. Wood, including contributions from Benjamin J. Cairns. These numerical routines first appeared in Simon Wood's solv95 program. This package includes a vignette and a complete user's guide. PBSddesolve originally appeared on CRAN under the name ddesolve'. That version is no longer supported. The current name emphasizes a close association with other PBS packages, particularly PBSmodelling'.

This package provides methods for spatial risk calculations, focusing on efficient determination of the sum of observations within a circle of a given radius. These methods are particularly relevant for applications such as insurance, where recent European Commission regulations require the calculation of the maximum insured value of fire risk policies for all buildings that are partly or fully located within a 200 m radius. The underlying problem is described by Church (1974) <doi:10.1007/BF01942293>.

This package is used for the detection of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the comparison of two biological conditions (treated vs. untreated, diseased vs. normal, mutant vs. wild-type) among different levels of gene expression (transcriptome ,translatome, proteome), using several statistical methods: Rank Product, Translational Efficiency, t-test, Limma, ANOTA, DESeq, edgeR. It also provides the possibility to plot the results with scatterplots, histograms, MA plots, standard deviation (SD) plots, coefficient of variation (CV) plots.

This package provides a class and subclasses for storing non-scalar objects in matrix entries. This is akin to a ragged array but the raggedness is in the third dimension, much like a bumpy surface--hence the name. Of particular interest is the BumpyDataFrameMatrix, where each entry is a Bioconductor data frame. This allows us to naturally represent multivariate data in a format that is compatible with two-dimensional containers like the SummarizedExperiment and MultiAssayExperiment objects.

Function-oriented Make-like declarative pipelines for statistics and data science are supported in the targets R package. As an extension to targets, the tarchetypes package provides convenient user-side functions to make targets easier to use. By establishing reusable archetypes for common kinds of targets and pipelines, these functions help express complicated reproducible pipelines concisely and compactly. The methods in this package were influenced by the drake R package by Will Landau (2018) <doi:10.21105/joss.00550>.

This package provides a pipeline to discern RNA structure at and proximal to the site of protein binding within regions of the transcriptome defined by the user. CLIP protein-binding data can be input as either aligned BAM or peak-called bedGraph files. RNA structure can either be predicted internally from sequence or users have the option to input their own RNA structure data. RNA structure binding profiles can be visually and quantitatively compared across multiple formats.

Estimate fish length-at-age models using MCMC analysis with rstan models. This package allows a multimodel approach to growth fitting to be applied to length-at-age data and is supported by further analyses to determine model selection and result presentation. The core methods of this package are presented in Smart and Grammer (2021) "Modernising fish and shark growth curves with Bayesian length-at-age models". PLOS ONE 16(2): e0246734 <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0246734>.
