Read and Write Standard 'C' Types from Files, Connections and Raw Vectors
Interacting with binary files can be difficult because R's types are a subset of what is generally supported by 'C'. This package provides a suite of functions for reading and writing binary data (with files, connections, and raw vectors) using 'C' type descriptions. These functions convert data between 'C' types and R types while checking for values outside the type limits, 'NA' values, etc.
Root Expected Proportion Squared Difference for Detecting DIF
Root Expected Proportion Squared Difference (REPSD) is a nonparametric differential item functioning (DIF) method that (a) allows practitioners to explore for DIF related to small, fine-grained focal groups of examinees, and (b) compares the focal group directly to the composite group that will be used to develop the reported test score scale. Using your provided response matrix with a column that identifies focal group membership, this package provides the REPSD values, a simulated null distribution of possible REPSD values, and the simulated p-values identifying items possibly displaying DIF without requiring enormous sample sizes.
Efficient Voting Methods for Committee Selection
A fast 'Rcpp'-based implementation of polynomially-computable voting theory methods for committee ranking and scoring. The package includes methods such as Approval Voting (AV), Satisfaction Approval Voting (SAV), sequential Proportional Approval Voting (PAV), and sequential Phragmen's Rule. Weighted variants of these methods are also provided, allowing for differential voter influence.
Tools for Summarising and Analysing Soundscape Data
A variety of tools relevant to the analysis of marine soundscape data. There are tools for downloading AIS (automatic identification system) data from Marine Cadastre < https://hub.marinecadastre.gov>, connecting AIS data to GPS coordinates, plotting summaries of various soundscape measurements, and downloading relevant environmental variables (wind, swell height) from the National Center for Atmospheric Research data server < https://rda.ucar.edu/datasets/ds084.1/>. Most tools were developed to work well with output from 'Triton' software, but can be adapted to work with any similar measurements.
Multivariate Extremes: Bayesian Estimation of the Spectral Measure
Toolkit for Bayesian estimation of the dependence structure in multivariate extreme value parametric models, following Sabourin and Naveau (2014)
Monazite Dating for the NiLeDAM Team
Th-U-Pb electron microprobe age dating of monazite, as originally

The Gumbel-Hougaard Copula
Provides probability functions (cumulative distribution and density functions), simulation function (Gumbel copula multivariate simulation) and estimation functions (Maximum Likelihood Estimation, Inference For Margins, Moment Based Estimation and Canonical Maximum Likelihood).
Visualize 'Confounder' Control in Meta-Analyses
Visualize 'confounder' control in meta-analysis. 'metaconfoundr' is an approach to evaluating bias in studies used in meta-analyses based on the causal inference framework. Study groups create a causal diagram displaying their assumptions about the scientific question. From this, they develop a list of important 'confounders'. Then, they evaluate whether studies controlled for these variables well. 'metaconfoundr' is a toolkit to facilitate this process and visualize the results as heat maps, traffic light plots, and more.
Validation Tools for Artificial Neural Networks
Methods and tools for analysing and validating the outputs and modelled functions of artificial neural networks (ANNs) in terms of predictive, replicative and structural validity. Also provides a method for fitting feed-forward ANNs with a single hidden layer.
R Interface to 'EPP-Lab', a Java Program for Exploratory Projection Pursuit
An R Interface to 'EPP-lab' v1.0. 'EPP-lab' is a Java program for projection pursuit using genetic algorithms written by Alain Berro and S. Larabi Marie-Sainte and is included in the package.
