Respondent-Driven Sampling

Provides functionality for carrying out estimation with data collected using Respondent-Driven Sampling. This includes Heckathorn's RDS-I and RDS-II estimators as well as Gile's Sequential Sampling estimator. The package is part of the "RDS Analyst" suite of packages for the analysis of respondent-driven sampling data. See Gile and Handcock (2010) , Gile and Handcock (2015) and Gile, Beaudry, Handcock and Ott (2018) .

Split-Apply-Combine with Dynamic Groups

Estimate group aggregates, where one can set user-defined conditions that each group of records must satisfy to be suitable for aggregation. If a group of records is not suitable, it is expanded using a collapsing scheme defined by the user. A paper on this package was published in the Journal of Statistical Software .

Fast, Robust, and High-Quality Synthetic Data Generation with a Tuneable Privacy-Utility Trade-Off

Synthesize numeric, categorical, mixed and time series data. Data circumstances including mixed (or zero-inflated) distributions and missing data patterns are reproduced in the synthetic data. A single parameter allows balancing between high-quality synthetic data that represents correlations of the original data and lower quality but more privacy safe synthetic data without correlations. Tuning can be done per variable or for the whole dataset.

Fit, Simulate and Diagnose Exponential-Family Models for Networks

An integrated set of tools to analyze and simulate networks based on exponential-family random graph models (ERGMs). 'ergm' is a part of the Statnet suite of packages for network analysis. See Hunter, Handcock, Butts, Goodreau, and Morris (2008) and Krivitsky, Hunter, Morris, and Klumb (2023) .

Geological Time Scale Plotting

Functionality for adding the geological timescale to bivariate plots.

Inter-Widget Interactivity for HTML Widgets

Provides building blocks for allowing HTML widgets to communicate with each other, with Shiny or without (i.e. static .html files). Currently supports linked brushing and filtering.

Core Methods and Classes Used by 'aroma.*' Packages Part of the Aroma Framework

Core methods and classes used by higher-level 'aroma.*' packages part of the Aroma Project, e.g. 'aroma.affymetrix' and 'aroma.cn'.

Conditional Visualization for Statistical Models

Exploring fitted models by interactively taking 2-D and 3-D sections in data space.

Shape-Constrained Kernel Density Estimation

Implements methods for obtaining kernel density estimates subject to a variety of shape constraints (unimodality, bimodality, symmetry, tail monotonicity, bounds, and constraints on the number of inflection points). Enforcing constraints can eliminate unwanted waves or kinks in the estimate, which improves its subjective appearance and can also improve statistical performance. The main function scdensity() is very similar to the density() function in 'stats', allowing shape-restricted estimates to be obtained with little effort. The methods implemented in this package are described in Wolters and Braun (2017) , Wolters (2012) , and Hall and Huang (2002) < https://www3.stat.sinica.edu.tw/statistica/j12n4/j12n41/j12n41.htm>. See the scdensity() help for for full citations.

R Interface with Google Compute Engine

Interact with the 'Google Compute Engine' API in R. Lets you create, start and stop instances in the 'Google Cloud'. Support for preconfigured instances, with templates for common R needs.
