Provides Access to Git Repositories

Interface to the 'libgit2' library, which is a pure C implementation of the 'Git' core methods. Provides access to 'Git' repositories to extract data and running some basic 'Git' commands.

Cast '(R)Markdown' Files to 'XML' and Back Again

Parsing '(R)Markdown' files with numerous regular expressions can be fraught with peril, but it does not have to be this way. Converting '(R)Markdown' files to 'XML' using the 'commonmark' package allows in-memory editing via of 'markdown' elements via 'XPath' through the extensible 'R6' class called 'yarn'. These modified 'XML' representations can be written to '(R)Markdown' documents via an 'xslt' stylesheet which implements an extended version of 'GitHub'-flavoured 'markdown' so that you can tinker to your hearts content.

Interface to 'Phylocom'

Interface to 'Phylocom' (< https://phylodiversity.net/phylocom/>), a library for analysis of 'phylogenetic' community structure and character evolution. Includes low level methods for interacting with the three executables, as well as higher level interfaces for methods like 'aot', 'ecovolve', 'bladj', 'phylomatic', and more.

Correcting Drift and Carry-over in Continuous Isotopic Measurements

A series of functions that allow an easy and fast correction for drift and carry-over in continuous isotopic measurements. This implementation provides queries allowing users to perform the implemented corrections according to their needs. These functions further enable the processing of large datasets and can provides apt visualizations of the corrections performed.

Co-Data Learning for Bayesian Additive Regression Trees

Estimate prior variable weights for Bayesian Additive Regression Trees (BART). These weights correspond to the probabilities of the variables being selected in the splitting rules of the sum-of-trees. Weights are estimated using empirical Bayes and external information on the explanatory variables (co-data). BART models are fitted using the 'dbarts' 'R' package. See Goedhart and others (2023) for details.

Comprehensive TIFF I/O with Full Support for 'ImageJ' TIFF Files

General purpose TIFF file I/O for R users. Currently the only such package with read and write support for TIFF files with floating point (real-numbered) pixels, and the only package that can correctly import TIFF files that were saved from 'ImageJ' and write TIFF files than can be correctly read by 'ImageJ' < https://imagej.net/ij/>. Also supports text image I/O.

A Smaller 'codemetar' Package

The 'Codemeta' Project defines a 'JSON-LD' format for describing software metadata, as detailed at < https://codemeta.github.io>. This package provides core utilities to generate this metadata with a minimum of dependencies.

Integration to 'Apache' 'Arrow'

'Apache' 'Arrow' < https://arrow.apache.org/> is a cross-language development platform for in-memory data. It specifies a standardized language-independent columnar memory format for flat and hierarchical data, organized for efficient analytic operations on modern hardware. This package provides an interface to the 'Arrow C++' library.

R Bindings for Calling the 'Earth Engine' API

Earth Engine < https://earthengine.google.com/> client library for R. All of the 'Earth Engine' API classes, modules, and functions are made available. Additional functions implemented include importing (exporting) of Earth Engine spatial objects, extraction of time series, interactive map display, assets management interface, and metadata display. See < https://r-spatial.github.io/rgee/> for further details.

Segment Images in Text Lines and Words

Find text lines in scanned images and segment the lines into words. Includes implementations of the paper 'Novel A* Path Planning Algorithm for Line Segmentation of Handwritten Documents' by Surinta O. et al (2014) available at < https://github.com/smeucci/LineSegm>, an implementation of 'A Statistical approach to line segmentation in handwritten documents' by Arivazhagan M. et al (2007) , and a wrapper for an image segmentation technique to detect words in text lines as described in the paper 'Scale Space Technique for Word Segmentation in Handwritten Documents' by Manmatha R. and Srimal N. (1999) paper at , wrapper for code available at < https://github.com/arthurflor23/text-segmentation>. Provides as well functionality to put cursive text in images upright using the approach defined in the paper 'A new normalization technique for cursive handwritten words' by Vinciarelli A. and Luettin J. (2001) .
