A 'Neo4J' Driver

A Modern and Flexible 'Neo4J' Driver, allowing you to query data on a 'Neo4J' server and handle the results in R. It's modern in the sense it provides a driver that can be easily integrated in a data analysis workflow, especially by providing an API working smoothly with other data analysis and graph packages. It's flexible in the way it returns the results, by trying to stay as close as possible to the way 'Neo4J' returns data. That way, you have the control over the way you will compute the results. At the same time, the result is not too complex, so that the "heavy lifting" of data wrangling is not left to the user.

Easy Dockerfile Creation from R

Build a Dockerfile straight from your R session. 'dockerfiler' allows you to create step by step a Dockerfile, and provide convenient tools to wrap R code inside this Dockerfile.

Functions Related to ICES Advice

A collection of functions that facilitate computational steps related to advice for fisheries management, according to ICES guidelines. These include methods for calculating reference points and model diagnostics.

Modelling Framework for the Estimation of Salmonid Abundance

A set of functions to estimate capture probabilities and densities from multipass pass removal data.

Import Professional Baseball Data from 'Retrosheet'

A collection of tools to import and structure the (currently) single-season event, game-log, roster, and schedule data available from < https://www.retrosheet.org>. In particular, the event (a.k.a. play-by-play) files can be especially difficult to parse. This package does the parsing on those files, returning the requested data in the most practical R structure to use for sabermetric or other analyses.

Interface to the 'sparseLM' Levenberg-Marquardt Library

Provides an R interface to the 'sparseLM' C library for large-scale nonlinear least squares problems with arbitrarily sparse Jacobians. The underlying solver implements a sparse variant of the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm for minimizing sum-of-squares objective functions, supports user-supplied analytic Jacobians or finite-difference approximation, and is designed to exploit sparsity for improved memory use and performance. This package exposes the solver in R and uses sparse matrix classes and the 'CHOLMOD' sparse Cholesky factorization routines through the 'Matrix' package interface. Methods from the C library are described in Lourakis (2010) .

DATRAS Trawl Survey Database Web Services

R interface to access the web services of the ICES (International Council for the Exploration of the Sea) DATRAS trawl survey database < https://datras.ices.dk/WebServices/Webservices.aspx>.

String Distance Calculation with Tidy Data Principles

Calculation of string distance following the tidy data principles. Built on top of the 'stringdist' package.

Read and Process 'Pamguard' Binary Data

Functions for easily reading and processing binary data files created by 'Pamguard' (< https://www.pamguard.org/>). All functions for directly reading the binary data files are based on 'MATLAB' code written by Michael Oswald.

Gillespie's Stochastic Simulation Algorithm (SSA)

Provides a simple to use, intuitive, and extensible interface to several stochastic simulation algorithms for generating simulated trajectories of finite population continuous-time model. Currently it implements Gillespie's exact stochastic simulation algorithm (Direct method) and several approximate methods (Explicit tau-leap, Binomial tau-leap, and Optimized tau-leap). The package also contains a library of template models that can be run as demo models and can easily be customized and extended. Currently the following models are included, 'Decaying-Dimerization' reaction set, linear chain system, logistic growth model, 'Lotka' predator-prey model, Rosenzweig-MacArthur predator-prey model, 'Kermack-McKendrick' SIR model, and a 'metapopulation' SIRS model.
