Estimation of the required sample size to validate a risk model for binary outcomes, based on the sample size equations proposed by Pavlou et al. (2021) <doi:10.1177/09622802211007522>. For precision-based sample size calculations, the user is required to enter the anticipated values of the C-statistic and outcome prevalence, which can be obtained from a previous study. The user also needs to specify the required precision (standard error) for the C-statistic, the calibration slope and the calibration in the large. The calculations are valid under the assumption of marginal normality for the distribution of the linear predictor.

"The Soil Texture Wizard" is a set of R functions designed to produce texture triangles (also called texture plots, texture diagrams, texture ternary plots), classify and transform soil textures data. These functions virtually allows to plot any soil texture triangle (classification) into any triangle geometry (isosceles, right-angled triangles, etc.). This set of function is expected to be useful to people using soil textures data from different soil texture classification or different particle size systems. Many (> 15) texture triangles from all around the world are predefined in the package. A simple text based graphical user interface is provided: soiltexture_gui().

This package performs a multiscale analysis of a nonparametric regression or nonparametric regressions with time series errors. In case of one regression, with the help of this package it is possible to detect the regions where the trend function is increasing or decreasing. In case of multiple regressions, the test identifies regions where the trend functions are different from each other. See Khismatullina and Vogt (2020) <doi:10.1111/rssb.12347>, Khismatullina and Vogt (2022) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2209.10841> and Khismatullina and Vogt (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.jeconom.2021.04.010> for more details on theory and applications.

This package implements several methods to estimate effects of generalized time-varying treatment strategies on the mean of an outcome at one or more selected follow-up times of interest. Specifically, the package implements the time-smoothed inverse probability weighted estimators described in McGrath et al. (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2509.13971>. Outcomes may be repeatedly, non-monotonically, informatively, and sparsely measured in the data source. The package also supports settings where outcomes are truncated by death, i.e. some individuals die during follow-up which renders the outcome of interest undefined at the follow-up time of interest.

The MSstatsLOBD package allows calculation and visualization of limit of blac (LOB) and limit of detection (LOD). We define the LOB as the highest apparent concentration of a peptide expected when replicates of a blank sample containing no peptides are measured. The LOD is defined as the measured concentration value for which the probability of falsely claiming the absence of a peptide in the sample is 0.05, given a probability 0.05 of falsely claiming its presence. These functionalities were previously a part of the MSstats package. The methodology is described in Galitzine (2018) <doi:10.1074/mcp.RA117.000322>.

This package provides a tool developed with the Golem framework which provides an easier way to check cells differences between two data frames. The user provides two data frames for comparison, selects IDs variables identifying each row of input data, then clicks a button to perform the comparison. Several R package functions are used to describe the data and perform the comparison in the server of the application. The main ones are comparedf() from arsenal and skim() from skimr'. For more details see the description of comparedf() from the arsenal package and that of skim() from the skimr package.

This package provides tools for statistical analysis using partitioning-based least squares regression as described in Cattaneo, Farrell and Feng (2020a, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1804.04916>) and Cattaneo, Farrell and Feng (2020b, <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1906.00202>): lsprobust() for nonparametric point estimation of regression functions and their derivatives and for robust bias-corrected (pointwise and uniform) inference; lspkselect() for data-driven selection of the IMSE-optimal number of knots; lsprobust.plot() for regression plots with robust confidence intervals and confidence bands; lsplincom() for estimation and inference for linear combinations of regression functions from different groups.

Computes A-, MV-, D- and E-optimal or near-optimal row-column designs for two-colour cDNA microarray experiments using the linear fixed effects and mixed effects models where the interest is in a comparison of all pairwise treatment contrasts. The algorithms used in this package are based on the array exchange and treatment exchange algorithms adopted from Debusho, Gemechu and Haines (2018) <doi:10.1080/03610918.2018.1429617> algorithms after adjusting for the row-column designs setup. The package also provides an optional method of using the graphical user interface (GUI) R package tcltk to ensure that it is user friendly.

Create an interactive pizza chart visualizing a specific player's statistics across various attributes in a sports dataset. The chart is constructed based on input parameters: data', a dataframe containing player data for any sports; player_stats_col', a vector specifying the names of the columns from the dataframe that will be used to create slices in the pizza chart, with statistics ranging between 0 and 100; name_col', specifying the name of the column in the dataframe that contains the player names; and player_name', representing the specific player whose statistics will be visualized in the chart, serving as the chart title.

Samples large data such that spectral clustering is possible while preserving density information in edge weights. More specifically, given a matrix of coordinates as input, SamSPECTRAL first builds the communities to sample the data points. Then, it builds a graph and after weighting the edges by conductance computation, the graph is passed to a classic spectral clustering algorithm to find the spectral clusters. The last stage of SamSPECTRAL is to combine the spectral clusters. The resulting "connected components" estimate biological cell populations in the data. See the vignette for more details on how to use this package, some illustrations, and simple examples.

Randomly reassigns the group identifications to one of the variables of the database, say Treatment, and randomly reassigns the observation numbers of the dataset. Reorders the observations according to these new numbers. Centers each group of Treatment at the grand mean in order to further mask the treatment. An unmasking function is provided so that the user can identify the potential outliers in terms of their original values when blinding is no longer needed. It is suggested that a forward search procedure be performed on the masked data. Details of some forward search functions may be found in <https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=forsearch>.

Generates a list, with a size defined by the user, containing the main scientific references and the frequency distribution of authors and journals in the list obtained. The database is a dataframe with academic production metadata made available by bibliographic collections such as Scopus, Web of Science, etc. The temporal evolution of scientific production on a given topic is presented and ordered lists of articles are constructed by number of citations and of authors and journals by level of productivity. Massimo Aria, Corrado Cuccurullo. (2017) <doi:10.1016/j.joi.2017.08.007>. Caibo Zhou, Wenyan Song. (2021) <doi:10.1016/j.jclepro.2021.126943>.

This k-means algorithm is able to cluster data with missing values and as a by-product completes the data set. The implementation can deal with missing values in multiple variables and is computationally efficient since it iteratively uses the current cluster assignment to define a plausible distribution for missing value imputation. Weights are used to shrink early random draws for missing values (i.e., draws based on the cluster assignments after few iterations) towards the global mean of each feature. This shrinkage slowly fades out after a fixed number of iterations to reflect the increasing credibility of cluster assignments. See the vignette for details.

This package provides a flexible and easy-to use interface for the soil vegetation atmosphere transport (SVAT) model LWF-BROOK90, written in Fortran. The model simulates daily transpiration, interception, soil and snow evaporation, streamflow and soil water fluxes through a soil profile covered with vegetation, as described in Hammel & Kennel (2001, ISBN:978-3-933506-16-0) and Federer et al. (2003) <doi:10.1175/1525-7541(2003)004%3C1276:SOAETS%3E2.0.CO;2>. A set of high-level functions for model set up, execution and parallelization provides easy access to plot-level SVAT simulations, as well as multi-run and large-scale applications.

The landmark approach allows survival predictions to be updated dynamically as new measurements from an individual are recorded. The idea is to set predefined time points, known as "landmark times", and form a model at each landmark time using only the individuals in the risk set. This package allows the longitudinal data to be modelled either using the last observation carried forward or linear mixed effects modelling. There is also the option to model competing risks, either through cause-specific Cox regression or Fine-Gray regression. To find out more about the methods in this package, please see <https://isobelbarrott.github.io/Landmarking/articles/Landmarking>.

Pooling estimates reported in meta-analyses (literature-based, LB) and estimates based on individual participant data (IPD) is not straight-forward as the details of the LB nonlinear function estimate are not usually reported. This package pools the nonlinear IPD dose-response estimates based on a natural cubic spline from lm or glm with the pointwise LB estimates and their estimated variances. Details will be presented in Härkänen, Tapanainen, Sares-Jäske, Männistö, Kaartinen and Paalanen (2026) "Novel pooling method for nonlinear cohort analysis and meta-analysis estimates: Predicting health outcomes based on climate-friendly diets" Epidemiology <doi:10.1097/EDE.0000000000001932>.

Programs to find the sample size or power of studies using the Sequential Parallel Comparison Design (SPCD) and programs to analyze such studies. This is a clinical trial design where patients initially on placebo who did not respond are re-randomized between placebo and active drug in a second phase and the results of the two phases are pooled. The method of analyzing binary data with this design is described in Fava,Evins, Dorer and Schoenfeld(2003) <doi:10.1159/000069738>, and the method of analyzing continuous data is described in Chen, Yang, Hung and Wang (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.cct.2011.04.006>.

This package provides tools to assess the association between two spatial processes. Currently, several methodologies are implemented: A modified t-test to perform hypothesis testing about the independence between the processes, a suitable nonparametric correlation coefficient, the codispersion coefficient, and an F test for assessing the multiple correlation between one spatial process and several others. Functions for image processing and computing the spatial association between images are also provided. Functions contained in the package are intended to accompany Vallejos, R., Osorio, F., Bevilacqua, M. (2020). Spatial Relationships Between Two Georeferenced Variables: With Applications in R. Springer, Cham <doi:10.1007/978-3-030-56681-4>.

The main aim is to further facilitate the creation of exercises based on the package exams by Grün, B., and Zeileis, A. (2009) <doi:10.18637/jss.v029.i10>. Creating effective student exercises involves challenges such as creating appropriate data sets and ensuring access to intermediate values for accurate explanation of solutions. The functionality includes the generation of univariate and bivariate data including simple time series, functions for theoretical distributions and their approximation, statistical and mathematical calculations for tasks in basic statistics courses as well as general tasks such as string manipulation, LaTeX/HTML formatting and the editing of XML task files for Moodle'.

Function and support for medication and dosing information extraction from free-text clinical notes. Medication entities for the basic medExtractR implementation that can be extracted include drug name, strength, dose amount, dose, frequency, intake time, dose change, and time of last dose. The basic medExtractR is outlined in Weeks, Beck, McNeer, Williams, Bejan, Denny, Choi (2020) <doi: 10.1093/jamia/ocz207>. The extended medExtractR_tapering implementation is intended to extract dosing information for more tapering schedules, which are far more complex. The tapering extension allows for the extraction of additional entities including dispense amount, refills, dose schedule, time keyword, transition, and preposition.

This package provides a collection of routines for finding reference limits using, where appropriate, QQ methodology. All use a data vector X of cases from the reference population. The default is to get the central 95% reference range of the population, namely the 2.5 and 97.5 percentile, with optional adjustment of the range. Along with the reference limits, we want confidence intervals which, for historical reasons, are typically at 90% confidence. A full analysis provides six numbers: â the upper and the lower reference limits, and - each of their confidence intervals. For application details, see Hawkins and Esquivel (2024) <doi:10.1093/jalm/jfad109>.

We consider the problem where we observe k vectors (possibly of different lengths), each representing an independent multinomial random vector. For a given function that takes in the concatenated vector of multinomial probabilities and outputs a real number, this is a Monte Carlo estimation procedure of an exact p-value and confidence interval. The resulting inference is valid even in small samples, when the parameter is on the boundary, and when the function is not differentiable at the parameter value, all situations where asymptotic methods and the bootstrap would fail. For more details see Sachs, Fay, and Gabriel (2025) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2406.19141>.

The SparseArray package is an infrastructure package that provides an array-like container for efficient in-memory representation of multidimensional sparse data in R. The package defines the SparseArray virtual class and two concrete subclasses: COO_SparseArray and SVT_SparseArray. Each subclass uses its own internal representation of the nonzero multidimensional data, the "COO layout" and the "SVT layout", respectively. SVT_SparseArray objects mimic as much as possible the behavior of ordinary matrix and array objects in base R. In particular, they support most of the "standard matrix and array API" defined in base R and in the matrixStats package from CRAN.
