Tools for Multiple Imputation in Multilevel Modeling

Provides tools for multiple imputation of missing data in multilevel modeling. Includes a user-friendly interface to the packages 'pan' and 'jomo', and several functions for visualization, data management and the analysis of multiply imputed data sets.

Multiple Aggregation Prediction Algorithm

Functions and wrappers for using the Multiple Aggregation Prediction Algorithm (MAPA) for time series forecasting. MAPA models and forecasts time series at multiple temporal aggregation levels, thus strengthening and attenuating the various time series components for better holistic estimation of its structure. For details see Kourentzes et al. (2014) .

Regression Modeling Strategies

Regression modeling, testing, estimation, validation, graphics, prediction, and typesetting by storing enhanced model design attributes in the fit. 'rms' is a collection of functions that assist with and streamline modeling. It also contains functions for binary and ordinal logistic regression models, ordinal models for continuous Y with a variety of distribution families, and the Buckley-James multiple regression model for right-censored responses, and implements penalized maximum likelihood estimation for logistic and ordinary linear models. 'rms' works with almost any regression model, but it was especially written to work with binary or ordinal regression models, Cox regression, accelerated failure time models, ordinary linear models, the Buckley-James model, generalized least squares for serially or spatially correlated observations, generalized linear models, and quantile regression.

Various R Programming Tools for Plotting Data

Various R programming tools for plotting data, including: - calculating and plotting locally smoothed summary function as ('bandplot', 'wapply'), - enhanced versions of standard plots ('barplot2', 'boxplot2', 'heatmap.2', 'smartlegend'), - manipulating colors ('col2hex', 'colorpanel', 'redgreen', 'greenred', 'bluered', 'redblue', 'rich.colors'), - calculating and plotting two-dimensional data summaries ('ci2d', 'hist2d'), - enhanced regression diagnostic plots ('lmplot2', 'residplot'), - formula-enabled interface to 'stats::lowess' function ('lowess'), - displaying textual data in plots ('textplot', 'sinkplot'), - plotting dots whose size reflects the relative magnitude of the elements ('balloonplot', 'bubbleplot'), - plotting "Venn" diagrams ('venn'), - displaying Open-Office style plots ('ooplot'), - plotting multiple data on same region, with separate axes ('overplot'), - plotting means and confidence intervals ('plotCI', 'plotmeans'), - spacing points in an x-y plot so they don't overlap ('space').

Turn Geospatial Polygons into Regular or Hexagonal Grids

Turn irregular polygons (such as geographical regions) into regular or hexagonal grids. This package enables the generation of regular (square) and hexagonal grids through the package 'sp' and then assigns the content of the existing polygons to the new grid using the Hungarian algorithm, Kuhn (1955) (). This prevents the need for manual generation of hexagonal grids or regular grids that are supposed to reflect existing geography.

Estimation/Multiple Imputation for Mixed Categorical and Continuous Data

Estimation/multiple imputation programs for mixed categorical and continuous data.

Calculate Pairwise Multiple Comparisons of Mean Rank Sums Extended

For one-way layout experiments the one-way ANOVA can be performed as an omnibus test. All-pairs multiple comparisons tests (Tukey-Kramer test, Scheffe test, LSD-test) and many-to-one tests (Dunnett test) for normally distributed residuals and equal within variance are available. Furthermore, all-pairs tests (Games-Howell test, Tamhane's T2 test, Dunnett T3 test, Ury-Wiggins-Hochberg test) and many-to-one (Tamhane-Dunnett Test) for normally distributed residuals and heterogeneous variances are provided. Van der Waerden's normal scores test for omnibus, all-pairs and many-to-one tests is provided for non-normally distributed residuals and homogeneous variances. The Kruskal-Wallis, BWS and Anderson-Darling omnibus test and all-pairs tests (Nemenyi test, Dunn test, Conover test, Dwass-Steele-Critchlow- Fligner test) as well as many-to-one (Nemenyi test, Dunn test, U-test) are given for the analysis of variance by ranks. Non-parametric trend tests (Jonckheere test, Cuzick test, Johnson-Mehrotra test, Spearman test) are included. In addition, a Friedman-test for one-way ANOVA with repeated measures on ranks (CRBD) and Skillings-Mack test for unbalanced CRBD is provided with consequent all-pairs tests (Nemenyi test, Siegel test, Miller test, Conover test, Exact test) and many-to-one tests (Nemenyi test, Demsar test, Exact test). A trend can be tested with Pages's test. Durbin's test for a two-way balanced incomplete block design (BIBD) is given in this package as well as Gore's test for CRBD with multiple observations per cell is given. Outlier tests, Mandel's k- and h statistic as well as functions for Type I error and Power analysis as well as generic summary, print and plot methods are provided.

Abstractions for Promise-Based Asynchronous Programming

Provides fundamental abstractions for doing asynchronous programming in R using promises. Asynchronous programming is useful for allowing a single R process to orchestrate multiple tasks in the background while also attending to something else. Semantics are similar to 'JavaScript' promises, but with a syntax that is idiomatic R.

Methods for Changepoint Detection

Implements various mainstream and specialised changepoint methods for finding single and multiple changepoints within data. Many popular non-parametric and frequentist methods are included. The cpt.mean(), cpt.var(), cpt.meanvar() functions should be your first point of call.

Assigns Colours to Values

Maps one of the viridis colour palettes, or a user-specified palette to values. Viridis colour maps are created by Stéfan van der Walt and Nathaniel Smith, and were set as the default palette for the 'Python' 'Matplotlib' library < https://matplotlib.org/>. Other palettes available in this library have been derived from 'RColorBrewer' < https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=RColorBrewer> and 'colorspace' < https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=colorspace> packages.
