Download, Compile and Link 'OpenBLAS' Library with R

The 'ropenblas' package (< https://prdm0.github.io/ropenblas/>) is useful for users of any 'GNU/Linux' distribution. It will be possible to download, compile and link the 'OpenBLAS' library (< https://www.openblas.net/>) with the R language, always by the same procedure, regardless of the 'GNU/Linux' distribution used. With the 'ropenblas' package it is possible to download, compile and link the latest version of the 'OpenBLAS' library even the repositories of the 'GNU/Linux' distribution used do not include the latest versions of 'OpenBLAS'. If of interest, older versions of the 'OpenBLAS' library may be considered. Linking R with an optimized version of 'BLAS' (< https://netlib.org/blas/>) may improve the computational performance of R code. The 'OpenBLAS' library is an optimized implementation of 'BLAS' that can be easily linked to R with the 'ropenblas' package.

Semantic UI Support for Shiny

Creating a great user interface for your Shiny apps can be a hassle, especially if you want to work purely in R and don't want to use, for instance HTML templates. This package adds support for a powerful UI library Fomantic UI - < https://fomantic-ui.com/> (before Semantic). It also supports universal UI input binding that works with various DOM elements.

Decision Models with Multi Attribute Utility Theory

Provides functions for the creation, evaluation and test of decision models based in Multi Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT). Can process and evaluate local risk aversion utilities for a set of indexes, compute utilities and weights for the whole decision tree defining the decision model and simulate weights employing Dirichlet distributions under addition constraints in weights.

National Road Safety Observatory (ONSV) Style for 'ggplot2' Graphics

Helps to create 'ggplot2' charts in the style used by the National Road Safety Observatory (ONSV). The package includes functions to customize 'ggplot2' objects with new theme and colors.

Modeling Complex Longitudinal Data in a Quick and Easy Way

Matching longitudinal methodology models with complex sampling design. It fits fixed and random effects models and covariance structured models so far. It also provides tools to perform statistical tests considering these specifications as described in : Pacheco, P. H. (2021). "Modeling complex longitudinal data in R: development of a statistical package." < https://repositorio.ufjf.br/jspui/bitstream/ufjf/13437/1/pedrohenriquedemesquitapacheco.pdf>.

Microbiota STability ASsessment via Iterative cluStering

The toolkit 'µSTASIS' has been developed for the stability analysis of microbiota in a temporal framework by leveraging on iterative clustering. Concretely, the core function uses Hartigan-Wong k-means algorithm as many times as possible for stressing out paired samples from the same individuals to test if they remain together for multiple numbers of clusters over a whole data set of individuals. Moreover, the package includes multiple functions to subset samples from paired times, validate the results or visualize the output.

Acceptance-Rejection Method for Generating Pseudo-Random Observations

Provides a function that implements the acceptance-rejection method in an optimized manner to generate pseudo-random observations for discrete or continuous random variables. Proposed by von Neumann J. (1951), < https://mcnp.lanl.gov/pdf_files/>, the function is optimized to work in parallel on Unix-based operating systems and performs well on Windows systems. The acceptance-rejection method implemented optimizes the probability of generating observations from the desired random variable, by simply providing the probability function or probability density function, in the discrete and continuous cases, respectively. Implementation is based on references CASELLA, George at al. (2004) < https://www.jstor.org/stable/4356322>, NEAL, Radford M. (2003) < https://www.jstor.org/stable/3448413> and Bishop, Christopher M. (2006, ISBN: 978-0387310732).

IUCN Redlisting Tools

Includes algorithms to facilitate the assessment of extinction risk of species according to the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature, see < https://www.iucn.org/> for more information) red list criteria.

Regression Methods for Interval-Valued Variables

Contains some important regression methods for interval-valued variables. For each method, it is available the fitted values, residuals and some goodness-of-fit measures.

Simulate Pedagogical Statistical Data

Univariate and multivariate normal data simulation. They also supply a brief summary of the analysis for each experiment/design: - Independent samples. - One-way and two-way Anova. - Paired samples (T-Test & Regression). - Repeated measures (Anova & Multiple Regression). - Clinical Assay.
