Effective processing of character strings is required at various stages of data analysis
pipelines: from data cleansing and preparation, through information extraction, to report
generation. Pattern searching, string collation and sorting,…

This paper describes and illustrates functionality of the spNNGP R package. The
package provides a suite of spatial regression models for Gaussian and non-Gaussian pointreferenced outcomes that are spatially indexed. The package implements several…

The last decade has witnessed the emergence of massive mobility datasets, such as
tracks generated by GPS devices, call detail records, and geo-tagged posts from social
media platforms. These datasets have fostered a vast scientific production on…

Mediation analysis is one of the most widely used statistical techniques in the social,
behavioral, and medical sciences. Mediation models allow to study how an independent
variable affects a dependent variable indirectly through one or more…

Reproducible document standards, like R Markdown, facilitate the programmatic creation of documents whose content is itself programmatically generated. While programmatic content alone may not be sufficient for a rendered document since it does…

modelsummary is a package to summarize data and statistical models in R. It supports
over one hundred types of models out-of-the-box, and allows users to report the results
of those models side-by-side in a table, or in coefficient plots. It makes…

High frequency data typically exhibit asynchronous trading and microstructure noise,
which can bias the covariances estimated by standard estimators. While a number of
specialized estimators have been proposed, they have had limited availability in…

This article presents a new implementation of hierarchical clustering for the R language
that allows one to apply spatial or temporal contiguity constraints during the clustering
process. The need for contiguity constraint arises, for instance,…

Actuaries model insurance claim amounts using heavy tailed probability distributions.
They routinely need to evaluate quantities related to these distributions such as quantiles
in the far right tail, moments or limited moments. Furthermore,…

This paper introduces the R package exuber for testing and date-stamping periods of
mildly explosive dynamics (exuberance) in time series. The package computes test statistics for the supremum augmented Dickey-Fuller test (SADF) of Phillips, Wu, and…
