Ensemble Platform for Species Distribution Modeling

Functions for species distribution modeling, calibration and evaluation, ensemble of models, ensemble forecasting and visualization. The package permits to run consistently up to 10 single models on a presence/absences (resp presences/pseudo-absences) dataset and to combine them in ensemble models and ensemble projections. Some bench of other evaluation and visualisation tools are also available within the package.

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.

Tidy Geospatial Networks

Provides a tidy approach to spatial network analysis, in the form of classes and functions that enable a seamless interaction between the network analysis package 'tidygraph' and the spatial analysis package 'sf'.

Datasets for Spatial Analysis

Diverse spatial datasets for demonstrating, benchmarking and teaching spatial data analysis. It includes R data of class sf (defined by the package 'sf'), Spatial ('sp'), and nb ('spdep'). Unlike other spatial data packages such as 'rnaturalearth' and 'maps', it also contains data stored in a range of file formats including GeoJSON and GeoPackage, but from version 2.3.4, no longer ESRI Shapefile - use GeoPackage instead. Some of the datasets are designed to illustrate specific analysis techniques. cycle_hire() and cycle_hire_osm(), for example, is designed to illustrate point pattern analysis techniques.

Display Tournament Fixtures using Knock Out and Round Robin Techniques

Use of Knock Out and Round Robin Techniques in preparing tournament fixtures as discussed in the Book Health and Physical Education by 'Dr. V K Sharma'(2018,ISBN:978-93-5272-134-4).

Joint Segmentation of Correlated Time Series

It contains a function designed to the joint segmentation in the mean of several correlated series. The method is described in the paper X. Collilieux, E. Lebarbier and S. Robin. A factor model approach for the joint segmentation with between-series correlation (2015) .

Optimisation with Continuous Convex Piecewise (Linear and Quadratic) Functions

Continuous convex piecewise linear (ccpl) resp. quadratic (ccpq) functions can be implemented with sorted breakpoints and slopes. This includes functions that are ccpl (resp. ccpq) on a convex set (i.e. an interval or a point) and infinite out of the domain. These functions can be very useful for a large class of optimisation problems. Efficient manipulation (such as log(N) insertion) of such data structure is obtained with map standard template library of C++ (that hides balanced trees). This package is a wrapper on such a class based on Rcpp modules.

Discrimination/Classification in very high dimension with linear and quadratic rules.

This package provides an implementation of Linear discriminant analysis and quadratic discriminant analysis that works fine in very high dimension (when there are many more variables than observations).

Interface Between 'GRASS' Geographical Information System and 'R'

An interface between the 'GRASS' geographical information system ('GIS') and 'R', based on starting 'R' from within the 'GRASS' 'GIS' environment, or running a free-standing 'R' session in a temporary 'GRASS' location; the package provides facilities for using all 'GRASS' commands from the 'R' command line. The original interface package for 'GRASS 5' (2000-2010) is described in Bivand (2000) and Bivand (2001) < https://www.r-project.org/conferences/DSC-2001/Proceedings/Bivand.pdf>. This was succeeded by 'spgrass6' for 'GRASS 6' (2006-2016) and 'rgrass7' for 'GRASS 7' (2015-present). The 'rgrass' package modernizes the interface for 'GRASS 8' while still permitting the use of 'GRASS 7'.

Poisson Lognormal Models

The Poisson-lognormal model and variants (Chiquet, Mariadassou and Robin, 2021 ) can be used for a variety of multivariate problems when count data are at play, including principal component analysis for count data, discriminant analysis, model-based clustering and network inference. Implements variational algorithms to fit such models accompanied with a set of functions for visualization and diagnostic.
