Spatial Dependence: Weighting Schemes, Statistics

A collection of functions to create spatial weights matrix objects from polygon 'contiguities', from point patterns by distance and tessellations, for summarizing these objects, and for permitting their use in spatial data analysis, including regional aggregation by minimum spanning tree; a collection of tests for spatial 'autocorrelation', including global 'Morans I' and 'Gearys C' proposed by 'Cliff' and 'Ord' (1973, ISBN: 0850860369) and (1981, ISBN: 0850860814), 'Hubert/Mantel' general cross product statistic, Empirical Bayes estimates and 'Assunção/Reis' (1999) Index, 'Getis/Ord' G ('Getis' and 'Ord' 1992) and multicoloured join count statistics, 'APLE' ('Li et al.' ) , local 'Moran's I', 'Gearys C' ('Anselin' 1995) and 'Getis/Ord' G ('Ord' and 'Getis' 1995) , 'saddlepoint' approximations ('Tiefelsdorf' 2002) and exact tests for global and local 'Moran's I' ('Bivand et al.' 2009) and 'LOSH' local indicators of spatial heteroscedasticity ('Ord' and 'Getis') . The implementation of most of these measures is described in 'Bivand' and 'Wong' (2018) , with further extensions in 'Bivand' (2022) . 'Lagrange' multiplier tests for spatial dependence in linear models are provided ('Anselin et al'. 1996) , as are 'Rao' score tests for hypothesised spatial 'Durbin' models based on linear models ('Koley' and 'Bera' 2023) . Additions in 2024 include Local Indicators for Categorical Data based on 'Carrer et al.' (2021) and 'Bivand et al.' (2017) ; also Weighted Multivariate Spatial Autocorrelation Measures ('Bavaud' 2024) . . A local indicators for categorical data (LICD) implementation based on 'Carrer et al.' (2021) and 'Bivand et al.' (2017) was added in 1.3-7. Multivariate 'spatialdelta' ('Bavaud' 2024) was added in 1.3-13 ('Bivand' 2025 . From 'spdep' and 'spatialreg' versions >= 1.2-1, the model fitting functions previously present in this package are defunct in 'spdep' and may be found in 'spatialreg'.

Calculate Thermal Indexes

Calculates several thermal comfort indexes using temperature, wind speed and relative humidity values, calculating indexes such as Humidex, windchill, Discomfort Index and others.

Client for 'jq', a 'JSON' Processor

Client for 'jq', a 'JSON' processor (< https://jqlang.github.io/jq/>), written in C. 'jq' allows the following with 'JSON' data: index into, parse, do calculations, cut up and filter, change key names and values, perform conditionals and comparisons, and more.

Index Numbers in Social Sciences

We provide an R tool for teaching in Social Sciences. It allows the computation of index numbers. It is a measure of the evolution of a fixed magnitude for only a product of for several products. It is very useful in Social Sciences. Among others, we obtain simple index numbers (in chain or in serie), index numbers for not only a product or weighted index numbers as the Laspeyres index (Laspeyres, 1864), the Paasche index (Paasche, 1874) or the Fisher index (Lapedes, 1978).

Index Number Calculation

Computes bilateral and multilateral index numbers. It has support for many standard bilateral indexes as well as multilateral index number methods such as GEKS, GEKS-Tornqvist (or CCDI), Geary-Khamis and the weighted time product dummy (for details on these methods see Diewert and Fox (2020) ). It also supports updating of multilateral indexes using several splicing methods.

Price Index Aggregation

Most price indexes are made with a two-step procedure, where period-over-period elementary indexes are first calculated for a collection of elementary aggregates at each point in time, and then aggregated according to a price index aggregation structure. These indexes can then be chained together to form a time series that gives the evolution of prices with respect to a fixed base period. This package contains a collection of functions that revolve around this work flow, making it easy to build standard price indexes, and implement the methods described by Balk (2008, ), von der Lippe (2007, ), and the CPI manual (2020, ) for bilateral price indexes.

Objective General Index

Consider a data matrix of n individuals with p variates. The objective general index (OGI) is a general index that combines the p variates into a univariate index in order to rank the n individuals. The OGI is always positively correlated with each of the variates. More details can be found in Sei (2016) .

Tools for Tensor Analysis and Decomposition

A set of tools for creation, manipulation, and modeling of tensors with arbitrary number of modes. A tensor in the context of data analysis is a multidimensional array. rTensor does this by providing a S4 class 'Tensor' that wraps around the base 'array' class. rTensor provides common tensor operations as methods, including matrix unfolding, summing/averaging across modes, calculating the Frobenius norm, and taking the inner product between two tensors. Familiar array operations are overloaded, such as index subsetting via '[' and element-wise operations. rTensor also implements various tensor decomposition, including CP, GLRAM, MPCA, PVD, and Tucker. For tensors with 3 modes, rTensor also implements transpose, t-product, and t-SVD, as defined in Kilmer et al. (2013). Some auxiliary functions include the Khatri-Rao product, Kronecker product, and the Hadamard product for a list of matrices.

Binary Indexed Tree

A simple implementation of Binary Indexed Tree by R. The BinaryIndexedTree class supports construction of Binary Indexed Tree from a vector, update of a value in the vector and query for the sum of a interval of the vector.
