Analysis of multivariate dichotomous and polytomous data using latent trait models under the Item Response Theory approach. It includes the Rasch, the Two-Parameter Logistic, the Birnbaum's Three-Parameter, the Graded Response, and the Generalized Partial Credit Models.

Mixture modelling of one-dimensional data using combinations of left-truncated Gamma, Weibull, and Lognormal Distributions. Blostein, Martin & Miljkovic, Tatjana. (2019) <doi:10.1016/j.insmatheco.2018.12.001>.

Targeted Maximum Likelihood Estimation ('TMLE') of
    treatment/censoring specific mean outcome or marginal structural model for
    point-treatment and longitudinal data.

Calculation of rectifying LTPD and AOQL plans for sampling inspection by variables which minimize mean inspection cost per lot of process average quality.

Implements the conditional inference forest and relative risk forest 
             algorithm to modeling left-truncated right-censored data with time-invariant        
             covariates, and (left-truncated) right-censored survival data with time-varying 
             covariates. It also provides functions to tune the parameters and evaluate the 
             model fit. See Yao et al. (2022) <doi:10.1177/09622802221111549>.

Recursive partition algorithms designed for fitting survival tree with left-truncated and right censored (LTRC) data, as well as interval-censored data.
    The LTRC trees can also be used to fit survival tree with time-varying covariates.

Methods of developing linear time series modelling.
 Methods are given for loglikelihood computation, forecasting
  and simulation.

Implements local spatial and local spatiotemporal Kriging based on local spatial and local spatiotemporal variograms, respectively. The method is documented in Kumar et al (2013) <https://www.nature.com/articles/jes201352)>.

Implementation of robust and sparse PCA algorithm of Wang and Van Aelst (2019) <DOI:10.1080/00401706.2019.1671234>.

Sparklines are small plots (about one line of text high),
  made popular by Edward Tufte.  This package is the interface from R
  to the LaTeX package sparklines by Andreas Loeffer and Dan Luecking
  (<http://www.ctan.org/pkg/sparklines>).  It can work with Sweave or
  knitr or other engines that produce TeX.  The package can be used to
  plot vectors, matrices, data frames, time series (in ts or zoo format).
