Obtain least-squares means for linear, generalized linear, and mixed models. Compute contrasts or linear functions of least-squares means, and comparisons of slopes. Plots and compact letter displays. Least-squares means were proposed in Harvey, W (1960) "Least-squares analysis of data with unequal subclass numbers", Tech Report ARS-20-8, USDA National Agricultural Library, and discussed further in Searle, Speed, and Milliken (1980) "Population marginal means in the linear model: An alternative to least squares means", The American Statistician 34(4), 216-221 <doi:10.1080/00031305.1980.10483031>. NOTE: lsmeans now relies primarily on code in the emmeans package. lsmeans will be archived in the near future.

Identification of equilibrium locations in location games (Hotelling (1929) <doi:10.2307/2224214>). In these games, two competing actors place customer-serving units in two locations simultaneously. Customers make the decision to visit the location that is closest to them.

Implementation of the algorithm introduced in Shah, R. D. (2016) <https://www.jmlr.org/papers/volume17/13-515/13-515.pdf>. Data with thousands of predictors can be handled. The algorithm performs sequential Lasso fits on design matrices containing increasing sets of candidate interactions. Previous fits are used to greatly speed up subsequent fits, so the algorithm is very efficient.

Estimates lacunarity and generalized lacunarity for unidimensional binary time series. The lacunarity index summarizes the similarity of parts from different regions of a series at a given scale by averaging the behavior of variable size structures of zeros and ones. The generalized lacunarity concept provides an enhanced measure of the organization of the gaps over all measured scales and over the different arrangements of smaller and larger gaps in the series.

An updated implementation of R package ranger by Wright et al, (2017) <doi:10.18637/jss.v077.i01> for training and predicting from random forests, particularly suited to high-dimensional data, and for embedding in Multiple Imputation by Chained Equations (MICE) by van Buuren (2007) <doi:10.1177/0962280206074463>. Ensembles of classification and regression trees are currently supported. Sparse data of class dgCMatrix (R package Matrix') can be directly analyzed. Conventional bagged predictions are available alongside an efficient prediction for MICE via the algorithm proposed by Doove et al (2014) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2013.10.025>. Trained forests can be written to and read from storage. Survival and probability forests are not supported in the update, nor is data of class gwaa.data (R package GenABEL'); use the original ranger package for these analyses.
