Time-based joins to analyze sequence of events, 
    both in memory and out of memory. after_join() joins two 
    tables of events, while funnel_start() and funnel_step() 
    join events in the same table. With the type argument, you
    can switch between different funnel types, like first-first
    and last-firstafter.

An implementation of methods presented by Spiegelhalter (2005) <doi:10.1002/sim.1970> Funnel plots for comparing institutional performance, for standardised ratios, ratios of counts and proportions with additive overdispersion adjustment.

A set of simplified functions for creating funnel plots for proportion data. This package supports user defined benchmarks, confidence limits and estimation methods (i.e. exact or approximate) based on Spiegelhalter (2005) <doi:10.1002/sim.1970>. Additional routines for returning scored unit level data according to a set of specifications is also implemented for convenience. Specifically, both a categorical and a continuous score variable is returned to the sample data frame, which identifies which observations are deemed extreme or in control. Typically, such variables are useful as stratifications or covariates in further exploratory analyses. Lastly, the plotting routine returns a base funnel plot ('ggplot2'), which can also be tailored.

Functional principal component analysis under the Linear Mixed Models representation of smoothing splines. The method utilizes the Demmler-Reinsch basis and assumes error independence. For more details see: F. Rosales (2016) <https://ediss.uni-goettingen.de/handle/11858/00-1735-0000-0028-87F9-6>.

High-order functions for data manipulation : sort or group data, given one
    or more auxiliary functions. Functions are inspired by other pure
    functional programming languages ('Haskell' mainly). The package also 
    provides built-in function operators for creating compact anonymous
    functions, as well as the possibility to use the 'purrr' package syntax.

A small utility which wraps Rscript and provides access to all R
    functions from the shell.
