Toolkit for processing and calling interactions in capture Hi-C data. Converts BAM files into counts of reads linking restriction fragments, and identifies pairs of fragments that interact more than expected by chance. Significant interactions are identified by comparing the observed read count to the expected background rate from a count regression model.

Measuring child development starts by collecting responses to 
    developmental milestones, such as "able to sit" or "says two words". 
    There are many ways to combine such responses into summaries. 
    The package bundles publicly available datasets with individual milestone 
    data for children aged 0-5 years, with the aim of supporting the construction, 
    evaluation, validation and interpretation of methodologies that aggregate 
    milestone data into informative measures of child development.

Tools for connecting to 'CHILDES', an open repository for
    transcripts of parent-child interaction. For more information on the 
    underlying data, see <https://langcog.github.io/childes-db-website/>.

Tools for extracting word and phrase frequencies from the Child Language Data Exchange System (CHILDES) 
    database via the 'childesr' API. Supports type-level word counts, 
    token-mode searches with simple wildcard patterns and part-of-speech 
    filters, optional stemming, and Zipf-scaled frequencies. Provides 
    normalization per number of tokens or utterances, speaker-role 
    breakdowns, dataset summaries, and export to Excel workbooks for 
    reproducible child language research. 
    The CHILDES database is maintained at <https://talkbank.org/childes/>.

Reads demographic data from a variety of public data sources, extracting and harmonizing variables useful for the study of childfree individuals. The identification of childfree individuals and those with other family statuses uses Neal & Neal's (2024) "A Framework for Studying Adults who Neither have Nor Want Children" <doi:10.1177/10664807231198869>; A pre-print is available at <doi:10.31234/osf.io/fa89m>.
