Quick Multivariate Graphs

Functions used for graphing in multivariate contexts. These functions are designed to support produce reasonable graphs with minimal input of graphing parameters. The motivation for these functions was to support students learning multivariate concepts and R - there may be other functions and packages better-suited to practical data analysis. For details about the ellipse methods see Johnson and Wichern (2007, ISBN:9780131877153).

Approximate Marginal Inference for Regression-Scale Models

Implements likelihood inference based on higher order approximations for linear nonnormal regression models.

Probability of Sporulation Potential in MAGs

Implements an ensemble machine learning approach to predict the sporulation potential of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from uncultivated Firmicutes based on the presence/absence of sporulation-associated genes.

The Ramer-Douglas-Peucker Algorithm

Pretty fast implementation of the Ramer-Douglas-Peucker algorithm for reducing the number of points on a 2D curve. Urs Ramer (1972), "An iterative procedure for the polygonal approximation of plane curves" . David H. Douglas and Thomas K. Peucker (1973), "Algorithms for the Reduction of the Number of Points Required to Represent a Digitized Line or its Caricature" .
