Economics and Pricing Tools

Functions to aid in micro and macro economic analysis and handling of price and currency data. Includes extraction of relevant inflation and exchange rate data from World Bank API, data cleaning/parsing, and standardisation. Inflation adjustment calculations as found in Principles of Macroeconomics by Gregory Mankiw et al (2014). Current and historical end of day exchange rates for 171 currencies from the European Central Bank Statistical Data Warehouse (2020).

Working with Sets the Tidy Way

Implements a class and methods to work with sets, doing intersection, union, complementary sets, power sets, cartesian product and other set operations in a "tidy" way. These set operations are available for both classical sets and fuzzy sets. Import sets from several formats or from other several data structures.

Minimal Type Guesser

Port the type guesser from 'readr' (so-called 'readr' first edition parsing engine, now superseded by 'vroom').

Work with Hyperspectral Data, i.e. Spectra + Meta Information (Spatial, Time, Concentration, ...)

Comfortable ways to work with hyperspectral data sets. I.e. spatially or time-resolved spectra, or spectra with any other kind of information associated with each of the spectra. The spectra can be data as obtained in XRF, UV/VIS, Fluorescence, AES, NIR, IR, Raman, NMR, MS, etc. More generally, any data that is recorded over a discretized variable, e.g. absorbance = f(wavelength), stored as a vector of absorbance values for discrete wavelengths is suitable.

Estimates and Plots Single-Level and Multilevel Latent Class Models

Efficiently estimates single- and multilevel latent class models with covariates, allowing for output visualization in all specifications. For more technical details, see Lyrvall et al. (2025) .

Reproducible Data Retrieval from the Roper Center Data Archive

Reproducible, programmatic retrieval of datasets from the Roper Center data archive. The Roper Center for Public Opinion Research < https://ropercenter.cornell.edu> maintains the largest archive of public opinion data in existence, but researchers using these datasets are caught in a bind. The Center's terms and conditions bar redistribution of downloaded datasets, but to ensure that one's work can be reproduced, assessed, and built upon by others, one must provide access to the raw data one employed. The `ropercenter` package cuts this knot by providing registered users with programmatic, reproducible access to Roper Center datasets from within R.

Mark-Recapture Analysis

Accomplishes mark-recapture analysis with covariates. Models available include the Cormack-Jolly-Seber open population (Cormack (1972) ; Jolly (1965) ; Seber (1965) ) and Huggin's (1989) closed population. Link functions include logit, sine, and hazard. Model selection, model averaging, plot, and simulation routines included. Open population size by the Horvitz-Thompson (1959) estimator.

'Rcpp' Bindings for 'Redis' using the 'hiredis' Library

Connection to the 'Redis' (or 'Valkey') key/value store using the C-language client library 'hiredis' (included as a fallback) with 'MsgPack' encoding provided via 'RcppMsgPack' headers. It now also includes the pub/sub functions from the 'rredis' package.

A Fast and Flexible Bayesian Tool for Estimating Epidemiological Parameters

Estimation of epidemiological parameters with Laplacian-P-splines following the methodology of Gressani et al. (2022) .

Exploration and Graphics for RivEr Trends

Statistics and graphics for streamflow history, water quality trends, and the statistical modeling algorithm: Weighted Regressions on Time, Discharge, and Season (WRTDS).
