Contains data sets used in other packages Torsten Hothorn maintains.

Spectral Transmittance and Spectral Reflectance Data

Spectral 'transmittance' data for frequently used filters and similar materials. Plastic sheets and films; photography filters; theatrical gels; machine-vision filters; various types of window glass; optical glass and some laboratory plastics and glassware. Spectral reflectance data for frequently encountered materials. Part of the 'r4photobiology' suite, Aphalo P. J. (2015) .

Convert Data from and to 'GeoJSON' or 'TopoJSON'

Convert data to 'GeoJSON' or 'TopoJSON' from various R classes, including vectors, lists, data frames, shape files, and spatial classes. 'geojsonio' does not aim to replace packages like 'sp', 'rgdal', 'rgeos', but rather aims to be a high level client to simplify conversions of data from and to 'GeoJSON' and 'TopoJSON'.

Reproduce Statistical Analyses and Meta-Analyses

Includes data analysis and meta-analysis functions (e.g., to calculate effect sizes and 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) on Standardised Effect Sizes (d) for AB/BA cross-over repeated-measures experimental designs), data presentation functions (e.g., density curve overlaid on histogram),and the data sets analyzed in different research papers in software engineering (e.g., related to software defect prediction or multi- site experiment concerning the extent to which structured abstracts were clearer and more complete than conventional abstracts) to streamline reproducible research in software engineering.

Manipulate and Visualize VCF Data

Facilitates easy manipulation of variant call format (VCF) data. Functions are provided to rapidly read from and write to VCF files. Once VCF data is read into R a parser function extracts matrices of data. This information can then be used for quality control or other purposes. Additional functions provide visualization of genomic data. Once processing is complete data may be written to a VCF file (*.vcf.gz). It also may be converted into other popular R objects (e.g., genlight, DNAbin). VcfR provides a link between VCF data and familiar R software.

Combine Multidimensional Arrays

Combine multidimensional arrays into a single array. This is a generalization of 'cbind' and 'rbind'. Works with vectors, matrices, and higher-dimensional arrays (aka tensors). Also provides functions 'adrop', 'asub', and 'afill' for manipulating, extracting and replacing data in arrays.

Triangle Meshes and Related Geometry Tools

Generate planar and spherical triangle meshes, compute finite element calculations for 1-, 2-, and 3-dimensional flat and curved manifolds with associated basis function spaces, methods for lines and polygons, and transparent handling of coordinate reference systems and coordinate transformation, including 'sf' and 'sp' geometries. The core 'fmesher' library code was originally part of the 'INLA' package, and implements parts of "Triangulations and Applications" by Hjelle and Daehlen (2006) .

Multivariate Imputation by Chained Equations

Multiple imputation using Fully Conditional Specification (FCS) implemented by the MICE algorithm as described in Van Buuren and Groothuis-Oudshoorn (2011) . Each variable has its own imputation model. Built-in imputation models are provided for continuous data (predictive mean matching, normal), binary data (logistic regression), unordered categorical data (polytomous logistic regression) and ordered categorical data (proportional odds). MICE can also impute continuous two-level data (normal model, pan, second-level variables). Passive imputation can be used to maintain consistency between variables. Various diagnostic plots are available to inspect the quality of the imputations.

Regression with Functional Data

Methods for regression for functional data, including function-on-scalar, scalar-on-function, and function-on-function regression. Some of the functions are applicable to image data.

Various R Programming Tools for Data Manipulation

Various R programming tools for data manipulation, including medical unit conversions, combining objects, character vector operations, factor manipulation, obtaining information about R objects, generating fixed-width format files, extracting components of date & time objects, operations on columns of data frames, matrix operations, operations on vectors, operations on data frames, value of last evaluated expression, and a resample() wrapper for sample() that ensures consistent behavior for both scalar and vector arguments.
