Temporal Trends in Ecological Niche Models

Computes temporal trends in environmental suitability obtained from ecological niche models, based on a set of species presence point coordinates and predictor variables.

Semi-Supervised Model for Geographical Document Classification

Semissupervised model for geographical document classification (Watanabe 2018) . This package currently contains seed dictionaries in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Hebrew, Arabic, Turkish, Japanese and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional).

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) .

Tools Developed by the Long Term Ecological Research Community

Set of the data science tools created by various members of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) community. These functions were initially written largely as standalone operations and have later been aggregated into this package.

R Markdown Format for Flexible Dashboards

Format for converting an R Markdown document to a grid oriented dashboard. The dashboard flexibly adapts the size of it's components to the containing web page.

Download Official Spatial Data Sets of Brazil

Easy access to official spatial data sets of Brazil as 'sf' objects in R. The package includes a wide range of geospatial data available at various geographic scales and for various years with harmonized attributes, projection and fixed topology.

Estimation of the Number of Fatalities from Carcass Searches

The number of bird or bat fatalities from collisions with buildings, towers or wind energy turbines can be estimated based on carcass searches and experimentally assessed carcass persistence times and searcher efficiency. Functions for estimating the probability that a bird or bat that died is found by a searcher are provided. Further functions calculate the posterior distribution of the number of fatalities based on the number of carcasses found and the estimated detection probability.

Advanced Analysis of Longitudinal Data Using the Concordance Correlation Coefficient

Methods for assessing agreement between repeated measurements obtained by two or more methods using the longitudinal concordance correlation coefficient (LCC). Polynomial mixed-effects models (via 'nlme') describe how concordance, Pearson correlation and accuracy evolve over time. Functions are provided for model fitting, diagnostic plots, extraction of summaries, and non-parametric bootstrap confidence intervals (including parallel computation), following Oliveira et al. (2018) .

Generalized Spatial-Time Sequence Miner

Implementations of the algorithms present article Generalized Spatial-Time Sequence Miner, original title (Castro, Antonio; Borges, Heraldo ; Pacitti, Esther ; Porto, Fabio ; Coutinho, Rafaelli ; Ogasawara, Eduardo . Generalização de Mineração de Sequências Restritas no Espaço e no Tempo. In: XXXVI SBBD - Simpósio Brasileiro de Banco de Dados, 2021 ).

Create Network Connections Based on Chess Moves

Provides functions to work with directed (asymmetric) and undirected (symmetric) spatial networks. It makes the creation of connectivity matrices easier, i.e. a binary matrix of dimension n x n, where n is the number of nodes (sampling units) indicating the presence (1) or the absence (0) of an edge (link) between pairs of nodes. Different network objects can be produced by 'chessboard': node list, neighbor list, edge list, connectivity matrix. It can also produce objects that will be used later in Moran's Eigenvector Maps (Dray et al. (2006) ) and Asymetric Eigenvector Maps (Blanchet et al. (2008) ), methods available in the package 'adespatial' (Dray et al. (2023) < https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=adespatial>). This work is part of the FRB-CESAB working group Bridge < https://www.fondationbiodiversite.fr/en/the-frb-in-action/programs-and-projects/le-cesab/bridge/>.
