This package provides a framework based on S3 dispatch for constructing models of mosquito-borne pathogen transmission which are constructed from submodels of various components (i.e. immature and adult mosquitoes, human populations). A consistent mathematical expression for the distribution of bites on hosts means that different models (stochastic, deterministic, etc.) can be coherently incorporated and updated over a discrete time step.

Administrative Boundaries of Spain at several levels (Autonomous Communities, Provinces, Municipalities) based on the GISCO Eurostat database <https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/gisco> and CartoBase SIANE from Instituto Geografico Nacional <https://www.ign.es/>. It also provides a leaflet plugin and the ability of downloading and processing static tiles.

Our approach uses a mixture of multilayer stochastic block models to group co-membership matrices with similar information into components and to partition observations into different clusters. See De Santiago (2023, ISBN: 978-2-87587-088-9).

This package provides a web-based graphical user interface to provide the basic steps of a machine learning workflow. It uses the functionalities of the mlr3 framework.

Fast moment-based hierarchical model fitting. Implements methods from the papers "Fast Moment-Based Estimation for Hierarchical Models," by Perry (2017) and "Fitting a Deeply Nested Hierarchical Model to a Large Book Review Dataset Using a Moment-Based Estimator," by Zhang, Schmaus, and Perry (2018).

This package provides a set of model-assisted survey estimators and corresponding variance estimators for single stage, unequal probability, without replacement sampling designs. All of the estimators can be written as a generalized regression estimator with the Horvitz-Thompson, ratio, post-stratified, and regression estimators summarized by Sarndal et al. (1992, ISBN:978-0-387-40620-6). Two of the estimators employ a statistical learning model as the assisting model: the elastic net regression estimator, which is an extension of the lasso regression estimator given by McConville et al. (2017) <doi:10.1093/jssam/smw041>, and the regression tree estimator described in McConville and Toth (2017) <arXiv:1712.05708>. The variance estimators which approximate the joint inclusion probabilities can be found in Berger and Tille (2009) <doi:10.1016/S0169-7161(08)00002-3> and the bootstrap variance estimator is presented in Mashreghi et al. (2016) <doi:10.1214/16-SS113>.

Calculate different metrics based on aquatic macroinvertebrate density data (individuals per square meter) to assess water quality (Prat N et al. 2009).

Straightforward and detailed evaluation of machine learning models. MLeval can produce receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, precision-recall (PR) curves, calibration curves, and PR gain curves. MLeval accepts a data frame of class probabilities and ground truth labels, or, it can automatically interpret the Caret train function results from repeated cross validation, then select the best model and analyse the results. MLeval produces a range of evaluation metrics with confidence intervals.

Prediction of behaviour from movement characteristics using observation and random forest for the analyses of movement data in ecology. From movement information (speed, bearing...) the model predicts the observed behaviour (movement, foraging...) using random forest. The model can then extrapolate behavioural information to movement data without direct observation of behaviours. The specificity of this method relies on the derivation of multiple predictor variables from the movement data over a range of temporal windows. This procedure allows to capture as much information as possible on the changes and variations of movement and ensures the use of the random forest algorithm to its best capacity. The method is very generic, applicable to any set of data providing movement data together with observation of behaviour.

Package for processing downloaded MODIS Surface reflectance Product HDF files. Specifically, MOD09 surface reflectance product files, and the associated MOD03 geolocation files (for MODIS-TERRA). The package will be most effective if the user installs MRTSwath (MODIS Reprojection Tool for swath products; <https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/tools/modis_reprojection_tool_swath>, and adds the directory with the MRTSwath executable to the default R PATH by editing ~/.Rprofile.

We implement functions allowing for mediation analysis to be performed in cases where the mediator is a count variable with excess zeroes. First a function is provided allowing users to perform analysis for zero-inflated count variables using the marginalized zero-inflated Poisson (MZIP) model (Long et al. 2014 <DOI:10.1002/sim.6293>). Using the counterfactual approach to mediation and MZIP we can obtain natural direct and indirect effects for the overall population. Using delta method processes variance estimation can be performed instantaneously. Alternatively, bootstrap standard errors can be used. We also provide functions for cases with exposure-mediator interactions with four-way decomposition of total effect.

Implementation of marginalized models for zero-inflated count data. This package provides a tool to implement an estimation algorithm for the marginalized count models, which directly makes inference on the effect of each covariate on the marginal mean of the outcome. The method involves the marginalized zero-inflated Poisson model described in Long et al. (2014) <doi:10.1002/sim.6293>.
