Functional Rarity Indices Computation

Computes functional rarity indices as proposed by Violle et al. (2017) . Various indices can be computed using both regional and local information. Functional Rarity combines both the functional aspect of rarity as well as the extent aspect of rarity. 'funrar' is presented in Grenié et al. (2017) .

Estimation in Adaptive Group Sequential Trials

Calculation of repeated confidence intervals as well as confidence intervals based on the stage-wise ordering in group sequential designs and adaptive group sequential designs. For adaptive group sequential designs the confidence intervals are based on the conditional rejection probability principle. Currently the procedures do not support the use of futility boundaries or more than one adaptive interim analysis.

Quaternions Splines

Provides routines to create some quaternions splines: Barry-Goldman algorithm, De Casteljau algorithm, and Kochanek-Bartels algorithm. The implementations are based on the Python library 'splines'. Quaternions splines allow to construct spherical curves. References: Barry and Goldman , Kochanek and Bartels .

A Time Series Toolbox for Official Statistics

Plot official statistics' time series conveniently: automatic legends, highlight windows, stacked bar chars with positive and negative contributions, sum-as-line option, two y-axes with automatic horizontal grids that fit both axes and other popular chart types. 'tstools' comes with a plethora of defaults to let you plot without setting an abundance of parameters first, but gives you the flexibility to tweak the defaults. In addition to charts, 'tstools' provides a super fast, 'data.table' backed time series I/O that allows the user to export / import long format, wide format and transposed wide format data to various file types.

A Sound Interface for R

Basic functions for dealing with wav files and sound samples.

Mark Correlation Functions for Spatial Point Patterns

Provides a range of functions for computing both global and local mark correlation functions for spatial point patterns in either Euclidean spaces or on linear networks, with points carrying either real-valued or function-valued marks. For a review of mark correlation functions, see Eckardt and Moradi (2024) .

Item Pool Visualization

Generate plots based on the Item Pool Visualization concept for latent constructs. Item Pool Visualizations are used to display the conceptual structure of a set of items (self-report or psychometric). Dantlgraber, Stieger, & Reips (2019) .

Client Interface for 'openEO' Servers

Access data and processing functionalities of 'openEO' compliant back-ends in R.

TraMineR Extension

Collection of ancillary functions and utilities to be used in conjunction with the 'TraMineR' package for sequence data exploration. Includes, among others, specific functions such as state survival plots, position-wise group-typical states, dynamic sequence indicators, and dissimilarities between event sequences. Also includes contributions by non-members of the TraMineR team such as methods for polyadic data and for the comparison of groups of sequences.

Estimating the Parameters of a Continuous-Time Markov Chain from Discrete-Time Data

Estimation of Markov generator matrices from discrete-time observations. The implemented approaches comprise diagonal and weighted adjustment of matrix logarithm based candidate solutions as in Israel (2001) as well as a quasi-optimization approach. Moreover, the expectation-maximization algorithm and the Gibbs sampling approach of Bladt and Sorensen (2005) are included.
