Performs penalized quantile regression with LASSO, elastic net, SCAD and MCP penalty functions including group penalties. In addition, offers a group penalty that provides consistent variable selection across quantiles. Provides a function that automatically generates lambdas and evaluates different models with cross validation or BIC, including a large p version of BIC.

Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) modeling is a valuable tool in computational chemistry and drug design, where it aims to predict the activity or property of chemical compounds based on their molecular structure. In this vignette, we present the 'rQSAR' package, which provides functions for variable selection and QSAR modeling using Multiple Linear Regression (MLR), Partial Least Squares (PLS), and Random Forest algorithms.

Create tests and tasks compliant with the Question & Test Interoperability (QTI) information model version 2.1. Input sources are Rmd/md description files or S4-class objects. Output formats include standalone zip or xml files. Supports the generation of basic task types (single and multiple choice, order, pair association, matching tables, filling gaps and essay) and provides a comprehensive set of attributes for customizing tests.

Non-linear inversion for hypocenter estimation and analysis of seismic data collected continuously, or in trigger mode. The functions organize other functions from 'RSEIS' and 'GEOmap' to help researchers pick, locate, and store hypocenters for detailed seismic investigation. Error ellipsoids and station influence are estimated via jackknife analysis. References include  Iversen, E. S., and J. M. Lees (1996)<doi:10.1785/BSSA0860061853>.

The 'RQuantLib' package makes parts of 'QuantLib' accessible from R
 The 'QuantLib' project aims to provide a comprehensive software framework
 for quantitative finance. The goal is to provide a standard open source library
 for quantitative analysis, modeling, trading, and risk management of financial
 assets.
