Bayesian Applied Regression Modeling via Stan
Estimates previously compiled regression models using the 'rstan' package, which provides the R interface to the Stan C++ library for Bayesian estimation. Users specify models via the customary R syntax with a formula and data.frame plus some additional arguments for priors.
General Purpose Optimization in R using C++
Perform general purpose optimization in R using C++. A unified wrapper interface is provided to call C functions of the five optimization algorithms ('Nelder-Mead', 'BFGS', 'CG', 'L-BFGS-B' and 'SANN') underlying optim().
Actuarial Functions and Heavy Tailed Distributions
Functions and data sets for actuarial science:
modeling of loss distributions; risk theory and ruin theory;
simulation of compound models, discrete mixtures and compound
hierarchical models; credibility theory. Support for many additional
probability distributions to model insurance loss size and
frequency: 23 continuous heavy tailed distributions; the
Poisson-inverse Gaussian discrete distribution; zero-truncated and
zero-modified extensions of the standard discrete distributions.
Support for phase-type distributions commonly used to compute ruin
probabilities. Main reference:
Spatial Data Analysis
Methods for spatial data analysis with vector (points, lines, polygons) and raster (grid) data. Methods for vector data include geometric operations such as intersect and buffer. Raster methods include local, focal, global, zonal and geometric operations. The predict and interpolate methods facilitate the use of regression type (interpolation, machine learning) models for spatial prediction, including with satellite remote sensing data. Processing of very large files is supported. See the manual and tutorials on < https://rspatial.org/> to get started.
Tools for Descriptive Statistics
A collection of miscellaneous basic statistic functions and convenience wrappers for efficiently describing data. The author's intention was to create a toolbox, which facilitates the (notoriously time consuming) first descriptive tasks in data analysis, consisting of calculating descriptive statistics, drawing graphical summaries and reporting the results. The package contains furthermore functions to produce documents using MS Word (or PowerPoint) and functions to import data from Excel. Many of the included functions can be found scattered in other packages and other sources written partly by Titans of R. The reason for collecting them here, was primarily to have them consolidated in ONE instead of dozens of packages (which themselves might depend on other packages which are not needed at all), and to provide a common and consistent interface as far as function and arguments naming, NA handling, recycling rules etc. are concerned. Google style guides were used as naming rules (in absence of convincing alternatives). The 'BigCamelCase' style was consequently applied to functions borrowed from contributed R packages as well.
Fast Multivariate Normal and Student's t Methods
Provides computationally efficient tools related to the multivariate normal and Student's t distributions. The main functionalities are: simulating multivariate random vectors, evaluating multivariate normal or Student's t densities and Mahalanobis distances. These tools are very efficient thanks to the use of C++ code and of the OpenMP API.
Convenience Functions for Arrays
Some convenient functions to work with arrays.
Fast and Simple 'MongoDB' Client for R
High-performance MongoDB client based on 'mongo-c-driver' and 'jsonlite'. Includes support for aggregation, indexing, map-reduce, streaming, encryption, enterprise authentication, and GridFS. The online user manual provides an overview of the available methods in the package: < https://jeroen.github.io/mongolite/>.
Gaussian Mixture Models, K-Means, Mini-Batch-Kmeans, K-Medoids and Affinity Propagation Clustering
Gaussian mixture models, k-means, mini-batch-kmeans, k-medoids and affinity propagation clustering with the option to plot, validate, predict (new data) and estimate the optimal number of clusters. The package takes advantage of 'RcppArmadillo' to speed up the computationally intensive parts of the functions. For more information, see (i) "Clustering in an Object-Oriented Environment" by Anja Struyf, Mia Hubert, Peter Rousseeuw (1997), Journal of Statistical Software,
HTTP and WebSocket Server Library
Provides low-level socket and protocol support for handling HTTP and WebSocket requests directly from within R. It is primarily intended as a building block for other packages, rather than making it particularly easy to create complete web applications using httpuv alone. httpuv is built on top of the libuv and http-parser C libraries, both of which were developed by Joyent, Inc. (See LICENSE file for libuv and http-parser license information.)
