Datasets for "Statistics: UnLocking the Power of Data"

Datasets for the fourth edition of "Statistics: Unlocking the Power of Data" by Lock^5 Includes versions of datasets from earlier editions.

Sumerian Cuneiform Text Analysis

Provides functions for converting transliterated Sumerian texts to sign names and cuneiform characters, creating and querying dictionaries, analyzing the structure of Sumerian words, and creating translations. Includes a built-in dictionary and supports both forward lookup (Sumerian to English) and reverse lookup (English to Sumerian).

Clear and Condense Argument Check for User-Defined Functions

A concise check of the format of one or multiple input arguments (data type, length or value) is provided. Since multiple input arguments can be tested simultaneously, a lengthly list of checks at the beginning of your function can be avoided, hereby enhancing the readability and maintainability of your code.

Translation of Base R-Like Functions for 'data.table' Objects

Some heavily used base R functions are reconstructed to also be compliant to data.table objects. Also, some general helper functions that could be of interest for working with data.table objects are included.

Main Effects and Interactions in Mixed and Incomplete Data

Generalized low-rank models for mixed and incomplete data frames. The main function may be used for dimensionality reduction of imputation of numeric, binary and count data (simultaneously). Main effects such as column means, group effects, or effects of row-column side information (e.g. user/item attributes in recommendation system) may also be modelled in addition to the low-rank model. Geneviève Robin, Olga Klopp, Julie Josse, Éric Moulines, Robert Tibshirani (2018) .

API Wrapper Around 'Postcodes.io'

Free UK geocoding using data from Office for National Statistics. It is using several functions to get information about post codes, outward codes, reverse geocoding, nearest post codes/outward codes, validation, or randomly generate a post code. API wrapper around < https://postcodes.io>.

Multivariate Polynomials with Rational Coefficients

Symbolic calculation and evaluation of multivariate polynomials with rational coefficients. This package is strongly inspired by the 'spray' package. It provides a function to compute Gröbner bases (reference ). It also includes some features for symmetric polynomials, such as the Hall inner product. The header file of the C++ code can be used by other packages. It provides the templated class 'Qspray' that can be used to represent and to deal with multivariate polynomials with another type of coefficients.

Statistical Bias Correction Kit

Implementation of several recent multivariate bias correction methods with a unified interface to facilitate their use. A description and comparison between methods can be found in .

Get Spanish Origin-Destination Data

Gain seamless access to origin-destination (OD) data from the Spanish Ministry of Transport, hosted at < https://www.transportes.gob.es/ministerio/proyectos-singulares/estudios-de-movilidad-con-big-data/opendata-movilidad>. This package simplifies the management of these large datasets by providing tools to download zone boundaries, handle associated origin-destination data, and process it efficiently with the 'duckdb' database interface. Local caching minimizes repeated downloads, streamlining workflows for researchers and analysts. Methods described in Kotov et al. (2026) . Extensive documentation is available at < https://ropenspain.github.io/spanishoddata/index.html>, offering guides on creating static and dynamic mobility flow visualizations and transforming large datasets into analysis-ready formats.

Diversity Measures on Tripartite Graphs

Computing diversity measures on tripartite graphs. This package first implements a parametrized family of such diversity measures which apply on probability distributions. Sometimes called "True Diversity", this family contains famous measures such as the richness, the Shannon entropy, the Herfindahl-Hirschman index, and the Berger-Parker index. Second, the package allows to apply these measures on probability distributions resulting from random walks between the levels of tripartite graphs. By defining an initial distribution at a given level of the graph and a path to follow between the three levels, the probability of the walker's position within the final level is then computed, thus providing a particular instance of diversity to measure.
