We just released caugi 1.1.0 on CRAN! ๐Ÿš€

caugi is a causal graph toolkit in R that maches blazing speed with an intuitive and feature-rich interface.

New features in 1.1.0 include:

- Algorithms for minimal minimal d separators and normalizing the latent structure of a graph
- Functionality for checking if a graph is a Maximally Oriented Partially Directed Acyclic Graph (MPDAG)
- Various bug fixes and improvements to the code base

Got featured in #RWeekly under R in Academia! ๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ

In the article, I discuss the limitations of standard spatial models in capturing a structural network for archipelagic nations like the #Philippines, and how #ArchipelagoEngine (now on #CRAN) addresses this gap.

Huge thanks to the @rweekly team, especially Jon Calder for the review and Jonathan Carroll for merging my last-minute revision!

Hello #rstats and #rspatial world! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™m NJ, an R developer focusing on archipelagic spatial econometrics. Iโ€™ve just released the #ArchipelagoEngine on CRAN to address the "Continental Fallacy" in geographic models, using my home country of the Philippine as case study. ๐ŸŒ

Excited to connect with folks working on spatial bias, open science, and FOSS!

#r2u had its first 'three point five million packages delivered' month in February (outside that two-day Sep 2023 outlier) bringing the total to over 68 million #CRAN #Rstats packages shipped as #Ubuntu .deb binaries.

#r2u. Fast. Easy. Reliable. Pick All Three.

Samplyr is an #Rstats package providing a tidy, readable way to describe and run complex #sampling designs in #R. Multi-stage, stratified, PPS, sample coordination with permanent random numbers & more are supported.

People coming from SAS SURVEYSELECT or SPSS CSPLAN, should feel at home.

Release to #CRAN soon. For now it's under active development on #Gitlab (w/ a Github mirror). #Survey #Methodology #Statistics

A Tidy Grammar for Survey Sampling

Provides a tidy, composable grammar for specifying and executing complex survey sampling designs. Supports stratified, clustered, multi-stage, and multi-phase sampling with a minimal set of verbs that compose naturally. Designed to bridge the gap between verbal descriptions of sampling plans and executable R code, following tidyverse design principles. Includes synthetic sampling frames from African countries (Burkina Faso, Zimbabwe, Kenya) for learning and testing.

Searching the interwebz: "read markdown table in R cran". First hit: CRAN package: {readMDtable} :,-D

There surely must be an R package for everything, right? I really did not expect that there's a separate package for this.

#rstats #cran

readMDTable: Read Markdown Tables into Tibbles

Efficient reading of raw markdown tables into tibbles. Designed to accept content from strings, files, and URLs with the ability to extract and read multiple tables from markdown for analysis.

I just released {scholid} to CRAN ๐ŸŽ‰

A lightweight, dependency-free R package for detecting, normalizing, classifying, and extracting scholarly identifiers (DOI, ORCID, ISBN, ISSN, arXiv, PubMed).

Designed as a small, well-tested foundation for other R packages and data workflows.

๐Ÿ“– Documentation: https://thomas-rauter.github.io/scholid/

#rstats #CRAN #opensource

Tools for Scholarly and Academic Identifiers

Tools for detecting, normalizing, classifying, and extracting scholarly identifier strings. The package provides lightweight, dependency-free helpers for common identifier systems such as DOIs, ORCID iDs, ISBNs, ISSNs, arXiv identifiers, and PubMed identifiers. Functions are designed to be vectorized, predictable, and suitable as low-level building blocks for other R packages and data workflows.

Sometimes (often) one ends up needing to run older versions of R using older versions of packages. Evercran might be just the tool to help with that: https://github.com/r-hub/evercran#readme #RStats #docker #Cran #Rcheology
