A Suite of Convergence Acceleration Schemes for EM, MM and Other Fixed-Point Algorithms

Algorithms for accelerating the convergence of slow, monotone sequences from smooth, contraction mapping such as the EM and MM algorithms. It can be used to accelerate any smooth, linearly convergent acceleration scheme. A tutorial style introduction to this package is available in a vignette on the CRAN download page or, when the package is loaded in an R session, with vignette("turboEM").

Read and Write Rectangular Text Data Quickly

The goal of 'vroom' is to read and write data (like 'csv', 'tsv' and 'fwf') quickly. When reading it uses a quick initial indexing step, then reads the values lazily , so only the data you actually use needs to be read. The writer formats the data in parallel and writes to disk asynchronously from formatting.

Bridging the Gap Between Qualitative Data and Quantitative Analysis

Automates many of the tasks associated with quantitative discourse analysis of transcripts containing discourse including frequency counts of sentence types, words, sentences, turns of talk, syllables and other assorted analysis tasks. The package provides parsing tools for preparing transcript data. Many functions enable the user to aggregate data by any number of grouping variables, providing analysis and seamless integration with other R packages that undertake higher level analysis and visualization of text. This affords the user a more efficient and targeted analysis. 'qdap' is designed for transcript analysis, however, many functions are applicable to other areas of Text Mining/ Natural Language Processing.

Functions Supporting Packages ChemoSpec and ChemoSpec2D

Functions supporting the common needs of packages 'ChemoSpec' and 'ChemoSpec2D'.

Read Untidy Excel Files

Imports non-tabular from Excel files into R. Exposes cell content, position and formatting in a tidy structure for further manipulation. Tokenizes Excel formulas. Supports '.xlsx' and '.xlsm' via the embedded 'RapidXML' C++ library < https://rapidxml.sourceforge.net>. Does not support '.xlsb' or '.xls'.

An Implementation of the 'DoubleClick for Publishers' API

Functions to interact with the 'Google DoubleClick for Publishers (DFP)' API < https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/api/start> (recently renamed to 'Google Ad Manager'). This package is automatically compiled from the API WSDL (Web Service Description Language) files to dictate how the API is structured. Theoretically, all API actions are possible using this package; however, care must be taken to format the inputs correctly and parse the outputs correctly. Please see the 'Google Ad Manager' API reference < https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/api/rel_notes> and this package's website < https://stevenmmortimer.github.io/rdfp/> for more information, documentation, and examples.

Google Search Console R Client

Provides an interface with the Google Search Console, formally called Google Webmaster Tools.

Document Unit Tests Roxygen-Style

Much as 'roxygen2' allows one to document functions in the same file as the function itself, 'roxut' allows one to write the unit tests in the same file as the function. Once processed, the unit tests are moved to the appropriate directory. Currently supports 'testthat' and 'tinytest' frameworks. The 'roxygen2' package provides much of the infrastructure.

Bayesian Model Averaging

Package for Bayesian model averaging and variable selection for linear models, generalized linear models and survival models (cox regression).

Templated Reporting Workflows in Word and PowerPoint

Automated reporting in Word and PowerPoint can require customization for each organizational template. This package works around this by adding standard reporting functions and an abstraction layer to facilitate automated reporting workflows that can be replicated across different organizational templates.
