A Simple Data Science Challenge System

A simple data science challenge system using R Markdown and 'Dropbox' < https://www.dropbox.com/>. It requires no network configuration, does not depend on external platforms like e.g. 'Kaggle' < https://www.kaggle.com/> and can be easily installed on a personal computer.

Ensemble Platform for Species Distribution Modeling

Functions for species distribution modeling, calibration and evaluation, ensemble of models, ensemble forecasting and visualization. The package permits to run consistently up to 10 single models on a presence/absences (resp presences/pseudo-absences) dataset and to combine them in ensemble models and ensemble projections. Some bench of other evaluation and visualization tools are also available within the package.

Variable Selection Using Random Forests

Three steps variable selection procedure based on random forests. Initially developed to handle high dimensional data (for which number of variables largely exceeds number of observations), the package is very versatile and can treat most dimensions of data, for regression and supervised classification problems. First step is dedicated to eliminate irrelevant variables from the dataset. Second step aims to select all variables related to the response for interpretation purpose. Third step refines the selection by eliminating redundancy in the set of variables selected by the second step, for prediction purpose. Genuer, R. Poggi, J.-M. and Tuleau-Malot, C.

Create Interactive Graphs with 'Echarts JavaScript' Version 5

Easily create interactive charts by leveraging the 'Echarts Javascript' library which includes 36 chart types, themes, 'Shiny' proxies and animations.

The Free Group

The free group in R; juxtaposition is represented by a plus. Includes inversion, multiplication by a scalar, group-theoretic power operation, and Tietze forms. To cite the package in publications please use Hankin (2022) .

A Multivariate Emulator

A multivariate generalization of the emulator package.

Multivariate Polynomials

Various utilities to manipulate multivariate polynomials. The package is almost completely superceded by the 'spray' and 'mvp' packages, which are much more efficient.

Electrical Properties of Resistor Networks

Electrical properties of resistor networks using matrix methods.

Knot Diagrams using Bezier Curves

Makes visually pleasing diagrams of knot projections using optimized Bezier curves.

The Exterior Calculus

Provides functionality for working with tensors, alternating forms, wedge products, Stokes's theorem, and related concepts from the exterior calculus. Uses 'disordR' discipline (Hankin, 2022, ). The canonical reference would be M. Spivak (1965, ISBN:0-8053-9021-9) "Calculus on Manifolds". To cite the package in publications please use Hankin (2022) .
