T-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding using a Barnes-Hut Implementation

An R wrapper around the fast T-distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding implementation by Van der Maaten (see < https://github.com/lvdmaaten/bhtsne/> for more information on the original implementation).

Split, Combine and Compress PDF Files

Content-preserving transformations transformations of PDF files such as split, combine, and compress. This package interfaces directly to the 'qpdf' C++ library < https://qpdf.sourceforge.io/> and does not require any command line utilities. Note that 'qpdf' does not read actual content from PDF files: to extract text and data you need the 'pdftools' package.

Advanced and Fast Data Transformation

A large C/C++-based package for advanced data transformation and statistical computing in R that is extremely fast, class-agnostic, robust, and programmer friendly. Core functionality includes a rich set of S3 generic grouped and weighted statistical functions for vectors, matrices and data frames, which provide efficient low-level vectorizations, OpenMP multithreading, and skip missing values by default. These are integrated with fast grouping and ordering algorithms (also callable from C), and efficient data manipulation functions. The package also provides a flexible and rigorous approach to time series and panel data in R, fast functions for data transformation and common statistical procedures, detailed (grouped, weighted) summary statistics, powerful tools to work with nested data, fast data object conversions, functions for memory efficient R programming, and helpers to effectively deal with variable labels, attributes, and missing data. It seamlessly supports base R objects/classes as well as 'units', 'integer64', 'xts'/ 'zoo', 'tibble', 'grouped_df', 'data.table', 'sf', and 'pseries'/'pdata.frame'. For a concise overview of the package see Krantz (2026) .

Tools for Working with Posterior Distributions

Provides useful tools for both users and developers of packages for fitting Bayesian models or working with output from Bayesian models. The primary goals of the package are to: (a) Efficiently convert between many different useful formats of draws (samples) from posterior or prior distributions. (b) Provide consistent methods for operations commonly performed on draws, for example, subsetting, binding, or mutating draws. (c) Provide various summaries of draws in convenient formats. (d) Provide lightweight implementations of state of the art posterior inference diagnostics. References: Vehtari et al. (2021) .

'R' Access to the 'tskit C' API

'Tskit' enables efficient storage, manipulation, and analysis of ancestral recombination graphs (ARGs) using succinct tree sequence encoding. The tree sequence encoding of an ARG is described in Wong et al. (2024) , while `tskit` project is described in Jeffrey et al. (2026) . See also < https://tskit.dev> for project news, documentation, and tutorials. 'Tskit' provides 'Python', 'C', and 'Rust' application programming interfaces (APIs). The 'Python' API can be called from 'R' via the 'reticulate' package to load and analyse tree sequences as described at < https://tskit.dev/tutorials/tskitr.html>. 'RcppTskit' provides 'R' access to the 'tskit C' API for cases where the 'reticulate' option is not optimal; for example, high-performance or low-level work with tree sequences. Currently, 'RcppTskit' provides a limited set of 'R' functions because the 'Python' API and 'reticulate' already covers most needs.

Bayesian Applied Regression Modeling via Stan

Estimates previously compiled regression models using the 'rstan' package, which provides the R interface to the Stan C++ library for Bayesian estimation. Users specify models via the customary R syntax with a formula and data.frame plus some additional arguments for priors.

'C++' Standard Template Library Containers

Use 'C++' Standard Template Library containers interactively in R. Includes sets, unordered sets, multisets, unordered multisets, maps, unordered maps, multimaps, unordered multimaps, stacks, queues, priority queues, vectors, deques, forward lists, and lists.

Generate Port Files for C Libraries

Generate port files for foreign function interfaces to C libraries by parsing C-family header files with 'CastXML'.

Translates an R Function to a C++ Function

Enable translation of a tiny subset of R to C++. The user has to define a R function which gets translated. For a full list of possible functions check the documentation. After translation an R function is returned which is a shallow wrapper around the C++ code. Alternatively an external pointer to the C++ function is returned to the user. The intention of the package is to generate fast functions which can be used as ode-system or during optimization.

C++ Standard Library Vectors in R

Allows the creation and manipulation of C++ std::vector's in R.
