Longitudinal Concordance Correlation

Estimates the longitudinal concordance correlation to access the longitudinal agreement profile. The estimation approach implemented is variance components approach based on polynomial mixed effects regression model, as proposed by Oliveira, Hinde and Zocchi (2018) . In addition, non-parametric confidence intervals were implemented using percentile method or normal-approximation based on Fisher Z-transformation.

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 .

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/>.

Leveraging Experiment Lines to Data Analytics

The natural increase in the complexity of current research experiments and data demands better tools to enhance productivity in Data Analytics. The package is a framework designed to address the modern challenges in data analytics workflows. The package is inspired by Experiment Line concepts. It aims to provide seamless support for users in developing their data mining workflows by offering a uniform data model and method API. It enables the integration of various data mining activities, including data preprocessing, classification, regression, clustering, and time series prediction. It also offers options for hyper-parameter tuning and supports integration with existing libraries and languages. Overall, the package provides researchers with a comprehensive set of functionalities for data science, promoting ease of use, extensibility, and integration with various tools and libraries. Information on Experiment Line is based on Ogasawara et al. (2009) .

Multiple Imputation for Proteomics

A framework for multiple imputation for proteomics is proposed by Marie Chion, Christine Carapito and Frederic Bertrand (2021) . It is dedicated to dealing with multiple imputation for proteomics.

Make 'Mirai' 'Promises'

Allows 'mirai' objects encapsulating asynchronous computations, from the 'mirai' package by Gao (2023) , to be used interchangeably with 'promise' objects from the 'promises' package by Cheng (2021) < https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=promises>. This facilitates their use with packages 'plumber' by Schloerke and Allen (2022) < https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=plumber> and 'shiny' by Cheng, Allaire, Sievert, Schloerke, Xie, Allen, McPherson, Dipert and Borges (2022) < https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=shiny>.

Analysis and Identification of Raman Spectra of Microplastics

Pre-processing and polymer identification of Raman spectra of plastics. Pre-processing includes normalisation functions, peak identification based on local maxima, smoothing process and removal of spectral region of no interest. Polymer identification can be performed using Pearson correlation coefficient or Euclidean distance (Renner et al. (2019), ), and the comparison can be done with a user-defined database or with the database already implemented in the package, which currently includes 356 spectra, with several spectra of plastic colorants.

Procrustes Matching for Latent Space Item Response Model

Procrustes matching of the posterior samples of person and item latent positions from latent space item response models. The methods implemented in this package are based on work by Borg, I., Groenen, P. (1997, ISBN:978-0-387-94845-4), Jeon, M., Jin, I. H., Schweinberger, M., Baugh, S. (2021) , and Andrew, D. M., Kevin M. Q., Jong Hee Park. (2011) .

Load Estimation of River Compounds with Different Methods

Implements several of the most popular load estimation procedures, including averaging methods, ratio estimators and regression methods. The package provides an easy-to-use tool to rapidly calculate the load for various compounds and to compare different methods. The package also supplies additional functions to easily organize and analyze the data.
