Provenance Collector

Defines functions that can be used to collect provenance as an 'R' script executes or during a console session. The output is a text file in 'PROV-JSON' format.

Compare Provenance Collections to Explain Changed Script Outputs

Inspects provenance collected by the 'rdt' or 'rdtLite' packages, or other tools providing compatible PROV JSON output created by the execution of a script, and find differences between two provenance collections. Factors under examination included the hardware and software used to execute the script, versions of attached libraries, use of global variables, modified inputs and outputs, and changes in main and sourced scripts. Based on detected changes, 'provExplainR' can be used to study how these factors affect the behavior of the script and generate a promising diagnosis of the causes of different script results. More information about 'rdtLite' and associated tools is available at < https://github.com/End-to-end-provenance/> and Barbara Lerner, Emery Boose, and Luis Perez (2018), Using Introspection to Collect Provenance in R, Informatics, .

Validate Brazilian Administrative Registers - Valida Documentos

Contains functions to validate administrative register as CPF (Cadastro de Pessoa Fisica), CNPJ (Cadastro de Pessoa Juridica), PIS (Programa de Integracao Social), CNES (Cadastro Nacional de Saude). Builds from and improves on previous package from IPEA validaRA < https://github.com/ipea/validaRA>. It can check individual registers or help creating a table summarizing validity of a set.

Epimed Solutions Collection for Data Editing, Analysis, and Benchmark of Health Units

Collection of functions related to benchmark with prediction models for data analysis and editing of clinical and epidemiological data.

Object Pooling

Enables the creation of object pools, which make it less computationally expensive to fetch a new object. Currently the only supported pooled objects are 'DBI' connections.

Structural Equation Modeling with Deep Neural Network and Machine Learning Algorithms

Training and validation of a custom (or data-driven) Structural Equation Models using Deep Neural Networks or Machine Learning algorithms, which extend the fitting procedures of the 'SEMgraph' R package .

Tool Kit to Implement a W.A.S.P.A.S. Based Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis Solution

Provides a set of functions to implement decision-making systems based on the W.A.S.P.A.S. method (Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment), Chakraborty and Zavadskas (2012) . So this package offers functions that analyze and validate the raw data, which must be entered in a determined format; extract specific vectors and matrices from this raw database; normalize the input data; calculate rankings by intermediate methods; apply the lambda parameter for the main method; and a function that does everything at once. The package has an example database called choppers, with which the user can see how the input data should be organized so that everything works as recommended by the decision methods based on multiple criteria that this package solves. Basically, the data are composed of a set of alternatives, which will be ranked, a set of choice criteria, a matrix of values for each Alternative-Criterion relationship, a vector of weights associated with the criteria, since certain criteria are considered more important than others, as well as a vector that defines each criterion as cost or benefit, this determines the calculation formula, as there are those criteria that we want the highest possible value (e.g. durability) and others that we want the lowest possible value (e.g. price).

Provenance Visualizer

Displays provenance graphically for provenance collected by the 'rdt' or 'rdtLite' packages, or other tools providing compatible PROV JSON output. The exact format of the JSON created by 'rdt' and 'rdtLite' is described in < https://github.com/End-to-end-provenance/ExtendedProvJson>. More information about rdtLite and associated tools is available at < https://github.com/End-to-end-provenance/> and Barbara Lerner, Emery Boose, and Luis Perez (2018), Using Introspection to Collect Provenance in R, Informatics, .

Record Linkage Functions for Linking and Deduplicating Data Sets

Provides functions for linking and deduplicating data sets. Methods based on a stochastic approach are implemented as well as classification algorithms from the machine learning domain. For details, see our paper "The RecordLinkage Package: Detecting Errors in Data" Sariyar M / Borg A (2010) .
