Tools for Managing Classes on GitHub

Interface for the GitHub API that enables efficient management of courses on GitHub. It has a functionality for managing organizations, teams, repositories, and users on GitHub and helps automate most of the tedious and repetitive tasks around creating and distributing assignments.

Generate Personality Insights Sunburst Diagrams

Generates Personality Insights sunburst diagrams based on 'IBM Watson' Personality Insights service output.

Interface to Geometry Engine - Open Source ('GEOS')

Interface to Geometry Engine - Open Source ('GEOS') using the C 'API' for topology operations on geometries. Please note that 'rgeos' will be retired during October 2023, plan transition to 'sf' or 'terra' functions using 'GEOS', or the 'geos' package, at your earliest convenience (see < https://r-spatial.org/r/2023/05/15/evolution4.html> and earlier blogs for guidance). The 'GEOS' library is external to the package, and, when installing the package from source, must be correctly installed first. Windows and Mac Intel OS X binaries are provided on 'CRAN'. ('rgeos' >= 0.5-1): Up to and including 'GEOS' 3.7.1, topological operations succeeded with some invalid geometries for which the same operations fail from and including 'GEOS' 3.7.2. The 'checkValidity=' argument defaults and structure have been changed, from default FALSE to integer default '0L' for 'GEOS' < 3.7.2 (no check), '1L' 'GEOS' >= 3.7.2 (check and warn). A value of '2L' is also provided that may be used, assigned globally using 'set_RGEOS_CheckValidity(2L)', or locally using the 'checkValidity=2L' argument, to attempt zero-width buffer repair if invalid geometries are found. The previous default (FALSE, now '0L') is fastest and used for 'GEOS' < 3.7.2, but will not warn users of possible problems before the failure of topological operations that previously succeeded. From 'GEOS' 3.8.0, repair of geometries may also be attempted using 'gMakeValid()', which may, however, return a collection of geometries of different types.

Inference for Functions of Multinomial Parameters

We consider the problem where we observe k vectors (possibly of different lengths), each representing an independent multinomial random vector. For a given function that takes in the concatenated vector of multinomial probabilities and outputs a real number, this is a Monte Carlo estimation procedure of an exact p-value and confidence interval. The resulting inference is valid even in small samples, when the parameter is on the boundary, and when the function is not differentiable at the parameter value, all situations where asymptotic methods and the bootstrap would fail. For more details see Sachs, Fay, and Gabriel (2025) .

Pain Assessment at Withdrawal Speeds (PAWS)

Automated pain scoring from paw withdrawal tracking data. Based on Jones et al. (2020) "A machine-vision approach for automated pain measurement at millisecond timescales" .

Small-Sample Adjustments for Wald Tests Using Sandwich Estimators

Tests coefficients with sandwich estimator of variance and with small samples. Regression types supported are gee, linear regression, and conditional logistic regression.

Loewe's Additivity

Estimate model parameters to determine whether two compounds have synergy, antagonism, or Loewe's Additivity.

An R Interface to the JBrowse 2 Genome Browser

Provides an R interface to the JBrowse 2 genome browser. Enables embedding a JB2 genome browser in a Shiny app or R Markdown document. The browser can also be launched from an interactive R console. The browser can be loaded with a variety of common genomics data types, and can be used with a custom theme.

An API Client for the Environmental Data Initiative Repository

A client for the Environmental Data Initiative repository REST API. The 'EDI' data repository < https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/home.jsp> is for publication and reuse of ecological data with emphasis on metadata accuracy and completeness. It is built upon the 'PASTA+' software stack < https://pastaplus-core.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html#> and was developed in collaboration with the US 'LTER' Network < https://lternet.edu/>. 'EDIutils' includes functions to search and access existing data, evaluate and upload new data, and assist other data management tasks common to repository users.

Exact Binary Sequential Designs and Analysis

For a series of binary responses, create stopping boundary with exact results after stopping, allowing updating for missing assessments.
