A 'Neo4J' Driver

A Modern and Flexible 'Neo4J' Driver, allowing you to query data on a 'Neo4J' server and handle the results in R. It's modern in the sense it provides a driver that can be easily integrated in a data analysis workflow, especially by providing an API working smoothly with other data analysis and graph packages. It's flexible in the way it returns the results, by trying to stay as close as possible to the way 'Neo4J' returns data. That way, you have the control over the way you will compute the results. At the same time, the result is not too complex, so that the "heavy lifting" of data wrangling is not left to the user.

Functions Related to ICES Advice

A collection of functions that facilitate computational steps related to advice for fisheries management, according to ICES guidelines. These include methods for calculating reference points and model diagnostics.

Fit the Gambin Model to Species Abundance Distributions

Fits unimodal and multimodal gambin distributions to species-abundance distributions from ecological data, as in in Matthews et al. (2014) . 'gambin' is short for 'gamma-binomial'. The main function is fit_abundances(), which estimates the 'alpha' parameter(s) of the gambin distribution using maximum likelihood. Functions are also provided to generate the gambin distribution and for calculating likelihood statistics.
