Mesh Generation and Surface Tessellation

Makes the 'Qhull' library < http://www.qhull.org> available in R, in a similar manner as in Octave and MATLAB. Qhull computes convex hulls, Delaunay triangulations, halfspace intersections about a point, Voronoi diagrams, furthest-site Delaunay triangulations, and furthest-site Voronoi diagrams. It runs in 2D, 3D, 4D, and higher dimensions. It implements the Quickhull algorithm for computing the convex hull. Qhull does not support constrained Delaunay triangulations, or mesh generation of non-convex objects, but the package does include some R functions that allow for this.

Manipulating Labelled Data

Work with labelled data imported from 'SPSS' or 'Stata' with 'haven' or 'foreign'. This package provides useful functions to deal with "haven_labelled" and "haven_labelled_spss" classes introduced by 'haven' package.

Mixed-Effect Models, with or without Spatial Random Effects

Inference based on models with or without spatially-correlated random effects, multivariate responses, or non-Gaussian random effects (e.g., Beta). Variation in residual variance (heteroscedasticity) can itself be represented by a mixed-effect model. Both classical geostatistical models (Rousset and Ferdy 2014 ), and Markov random field models on irregular grids (as considered in the 'INLA' package, < https://www.r-inla.org>), can be fitted, with distinct computational procedures exploiting the sparse matrix representations for the latter case and other autoregressive models. Laplace approximations are used for likelihood or restricted likelihood. Penalized quasi-likelihood and other variants discussed in the h-likelihood literature (Lee and Nelder 2001 ) are also implemented.

Additional Binary Operators

A set of binary operators for common tasks such as regex manipulation.

Syntax Highlighter

Syntax highlighter for R code based on the results of the R parser. Rendering in HTML and latex markup. Custom Sweave driver performing syntax highlighting of R code chunks.

Extension of `data.frame`

Fast aggregation of large data (e.g. 100GB in RAM), fast ordered joins, fast add/modify/delete of columns by group using no copies at all, list columns, friendly and fast character-separated-value read/write. Offers a natural and flexible syntax, for faster development.

Quick Serialization of R Objects

Provides functions for quickly writing and reading any R object to and from disk.

Airborne LiDAR Data Manipulation and Visualization for Forestry Applications

Airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) interface for data manipulation and visualization. Read/write 'las' and 'laz' files, computation of metrics in area based approach, point filtering, artificial point reduction, classification from geographic data, normalization, individual tree segmentation and other manipulations.

Data and Function to Work with Emojis

Contains data about emojis with relevant metadata, and functions to work with emojis when they are in strings.

Reactivity Helper for 'shiny'

Tools to help with 'shiny' reactivity. The 'react' object offers an alternative way to call reactive expressions to better identify them in the server code.
