Multiple Imputation of Covariates by Substantive Model Compatible Fully Conditional Specification

Implements multiple imputation of missing covariates by Substantive Model Compatible Fully Conditional Specification. This is a modification of the popular FCS/chained equations multiple imputation approach, and allows imputation of missing covariate values from models which are compatible with the user specified substantive model.

Bayesian Latent Variable Analysis

Fit a variety of Bayesian latent variable models, including confirmatory factor analysis, structural equation models, and latent growth curve models. References: Merkle & Rosseel (2018) ; Merkle et al. (2021) .

An R Package for Facilitating Large-Scale Latent Variable Analyses in Mplus

Leverages the R language to automate latent variable model estimation and interpretation using 'Mplus', a powerful latent variable modeling program developed by Muthen and Muthen (< https://www.statmodel.com>). Specifically, this package provides routines for creating related groups of models, running batches of models, and extracting and tabulating model parameters and fit statistics.

Rasterize Layers for 'ggplot2'

Rasterize only specific layers of a 'ggplot2' plot while simultaneously keeping all labels and text in vector format. This allows users to keep plots within the reasonable size limit without loosing vector properties of the scale-sensitive information.

Tidy Interface to 'data.table'

A tidy interface to 'data.table', giving users the speed of 'data.table' while using tidyverse-like syntax.

Targeted Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Two-Stage Study Design

An inverse probability of censoring weighted (IPCW) targeted maximum likelihood estimator (TMLE) for evaluating a marginal point treatment effect from data where some variables were collected on only a subset of participants using a two-stage design (or marginal mean outcome for a single arm study). A TMLE for conditional parameters defined by a marginal structural model (MSM) is also available.

Datasets for Spatial Analysis

Diverse spatial datasets for demonstrating, benchmarking and teaching spatial data analysis. It includes R data of class sf (defined by the package 'sf'), Spatial ('sp'), and nb ('spdep'). Unlike other spatial data packages such as 'rnaturalearth' and 'maps', it also contains data stored in a range of file formats including GeoJSON and GeoPackage, but from version 2.3.4, no longer ESRI Shapefile - use GeoPackage instead. Some of the datasets are designed to illustrate specific analysis techniques. cycle_hire() and cycle_hire_osm(), for example, is designed to illustrate point pattern analysis techniques.

Empirical Transition Matrix

The etm (empirical transition matrix) package permits to estimate the matrix of transition probabilities for any time-inhomogeneous multi-state model with finite state space using the Aalen-Johansen estimator. Functions for data preparation and for displaying are also included (Allignol et al., 2011 ). Functionals of the Aalen-Johansen estimator, e.g., excess length-of-stay in an intermediate state, can also be computed (Allignol et al. 2011 ).

Categorical Marginal Models

Quite extensive package for maximum likelihood estimation and weighted least squares estimation of categorical marginal models (CMMs; e.g., Bergsma and Rudas, 2002, < http://www.jstor.org/stable/2700006?; Bergsma, Croon and Hagenaars, 2009, .
