Turn Vectors and Lists of Vectors into Indexed Structures

Package designed for working with vectors and lists of vectors, mainly for turning them into other indexed data structures.

1000 Genomes Project Metadata

Metadata about populations and data about samples from the 1000 Genomes Project, including the 2,504 samples sequenced for the Phase 3 release and the expanded collection of 3,202 samples with 602 additional trios. The data is described in Auton et al. (2015) and Byrska-Bishop et al. (2022) , and raw data is available at < http://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/>. See Turner (2022) for more details.

Vector Field Visualizations with 'ggplot2'

A 'ggplot2' extension for visualizing vector fields in two-dimensional space. Provides flexible tools for creating vector and stream field layers, visualizing gradients and potential fields, and smoothing vector and scalar data to estimate underlying patterns.

Extended Generalised Linear Hidden Markov Models

Fits a variety of hidden Markov models, structured in an extended generalized linear model framework. See T. Rolf Turner, Murray A. Cameron, and Peter J. Thomson (1998) , and Rolf Turner (2008) and the references cited therein.

Core Functionality of the 'spatstat' Family

Functionality for data analysis and modelling of spatial data, mainly spatial point patterns, in the 'spatstat' family of packages. (Excludes analysis of spatial data on a linear network, which is covered by the separate package 'spatstat.linnet'.) Exploratory methods include quadrat counts, K-functions and their simulation envelopes, nearest neighbour distance and empty space statistics, Fry plots, pair correlation function, kernel smoothed intensity, relative risk estimation with cross-validated bandwidth selection, mark correlation functions, segregation indices, mark dependence diagnostics, and kernel estimates of covariate effects. Formal hypothesis tests of random pattern (chi-squared, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Monte Carlo, Diggle-Cressie-Loosmore-Ford, Dao-Genton, two-stage Monte Carlo) and tests for covariate effects (Cox-Berman-Waller-Lawson, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, ANOVA) are also supported. Parametric models can be fitted to point pattern data using the functions ppm(), kppm(), slrm(), dppm() similar to glm(). Types of models include Poisson, Gibbs and Cox point processes, Neyman-Scott cluster processes, and determinantal point processes. Models may involve dependence on covariates, inter-point interaction, cluster formation and dependence on marks. Models are fitted by maximum likelihood, logistic regression, minimum contrast, and composite likelihood methods. A model can be fitted to a list of point patterns (replicated point pattern data) using the function mppm(). The model can include random effects and fixed effects depending on the experimental design, in addition to all the features listed above. Fitted point process models can be simulated, automatically. Formal hypothesis tests of a fitted model are supported (likelihood ratio test, analysis of deviance, Monte Carlo tests) along with basic tools for model selection (stepwise(), AIC()) and variable selection (sdr). Tools for validating the fitted model include simulation envelopes, residuals, residual plots and Q-Q plots, leverage and influence diagnostics, partial residuals, and added variable plots.

One-Dimensional Probability Distribution Support for the 'spatstat' Family

Estimation of one-dimensional probability distributions including kernel density estimation, weighted empirical cumulative distribution functions, Kaplan-Meier and reduced-sample estimators for right-censored data, heat kernels, special distributions, kernel properties, quantiles and integration.

Forecasting Mortality, Fertility, Migration and Population Data

Functions for demographic analysis including lifetable calculations; Lee-Carter modelling; functional data analysis of mortality rates, fertility rates, net migration numbers; and stochastic population forecasting.
