Time Series Analysis Tools

A system contains easy-to-use tools as a support for time series analysis courses. In particular, it incorporates a technique called Generalized Method of Wavelet Moments (GMWM) as well as its robust implementation for fast and robust parameter estimation of time series models which is described, for example, in Guerrier et al. (2013) . More details can also be found in the paper linked to via the URL below.

Inference Using Simulation

Implements functions for simulation-based inference. In particular, implements functions to perform likelihood inference from data summaries whose distributions are simulated, as first described in Rousset et al. (2017) . The package implements more advanced methods described in Rousset et al. (2025) .

Tools for Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC)

Implements several ABC algorithms for performing parameter estimation, model selection, and goodness-of-fit. Cross-validation tools are also available for measuring the accuracy of ABC estimates, and to calculate the misclassification probabilities of different models.

A DNA Reference Library Manager

Reference database manager offering a set of functions to import, organize, clean, filter, audit and export reference genetic data. Provide functions to download sequence data from NCBI GenBank < https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/>. Designed as an environment for semi-automatic and assisted construction of reference databases and to improve standardization and repeatability in barcoding and metabarcoding studies.

Easy Web Scraping

The goal of 'ralger' is to facilitate web scraping in R.

Cramer-von Mises Goodness-of-Fit Tests

It is devoted to Cramer-von Mises goodness-of-fit tests. It implements three statistical methods based on Cramer-von Mises statistics to estimate and test a regression model.

Black Box Optimization and Exploration of Parameter Space

Performs prediction of a response function from simulated response values, allowing black-box optimization of functions estimated with some error. Includes a simple user interface for such applications, as well as more specialized functions designed to be called by the Migraine software (Rousset and Leblois, 2012 ; Leblois et al., 2014 ; and see URL). The latter functions are used for prediction of likelihood surfaces and implied likelihood ratio confidence intervals, and for exploration of predictor space of the surface. Prediction of the response is based on ordinary Kriging (with residual error) of the input. Estimation of smoothing parameters is performed by generalized cross-validation.

Population Genetic Data Analysis Using Genepop

Makes the Genepop software available in R. This software implements a mixture of traditional population genetic methods and some more focused developments: it computes exact tests for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, for population differentiation and for genotypic disequilibrium among pairs of loci; it computes estimates of F-statistics, null allele frequencies, allele size-based statistics for microsatellites, etc.; and it performs analyses of isolation by distance from pairwise comparisons of individuals or population samples.

Computes the Variance-Covariance Matrix of Multidimensional Parameters Using M-Estimation

Provides a flexible framework for estimating the variance-covariance matrix of estimated parameters. Estimation relies on unbiased estimating functions to compute the empirical sandwich variance. (i.e., M-estimation in the vein of Tsiatis et al. (2019) .
