Analyzes and predicts from matrix population models (Caswell 2006) <doi:10.1002/9781118445112.stat07481>.

A single method implementing multiple approaches to generate pseudo-random vectors whose components sum up to one (see, e.g., Maziero (2015) <doi:10.1007/s13538-015-0337-8>). The components of such vectors can for example be used for weighting objectives when reducing multi-objective optimisation problems to a single-objective problem in the socalled weighted sum scalarisation approach.

The minimal 'rrapply'-package contains a single function rrapply(), providing an extended implementation of 'R'-base rapply() by allowing to recursively apply a function to elements of a nested list based on a general condition function and including the possibility to prune or aggregate nested list elements from the result. In addition, special arguments can be supplied to access the name, location, parents and siblings in the nested list of the element under evaluation. The rrapply() function builds upon rapply()'s native 'C' implementation and requires no other package dependencies.

Implementation of Robust Regression tailored to deal with Asymmetric noise Distribution, which was originally proposed by Takeuchi & Bengio & Kanamori (2002) <doi:10.1162/08997660260293300>. In addition, this implementation is extended as introducing potential feature regularization by LASSO etc.

A tool to exchange data between R and 'Raven' sound analysis software (Cornell Lab of Ornithology). Functions work on data formats compatible with the R package 'warbleR'.

Software for genomic prediction with the RR-BLUP mixed model (Endelman 2011, <doi:10.3835/plantgenome2011.08.0024>). One application is to estimate marker effects by ridge regression; alternatively, BLUPs can be calculated based on an additive relationship matrix or a Gaussian kernel.

An implementation of robust boosting algorithms for regression in R. This includes the RRBoost method proposed in the paper "Robust Boosting for Regression Problems" (Ju X and Salibian-Barrera M. 2020) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2020.107065>. It also implements previously proposed boosting algorithms in the simulation section of the paper: L2Boost, LADBoost, MBoost (Friedman, J. H. (2001) <doi:10.1214/aos/1013203451>) and Robloss (Lutz et al. (2008) <doi:10.1016/j.csda.2007.11.006>).
