A set of functions that allow stationary analysis and locally stationary time series analysis.

Implementations of estimation algorithm of low rank plus sparse structured VAR model by using Fast Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm (FISTA). It relates to the algorithm in Sumanta, Li, and Michailidis (2019) <doi:10.1109/TSP.2018.2887401>.

Library of functions for the statistical analysis and simulation of Locally Stationary Wavelet Packet (LSWP) processes.  The methods implemented by this library are described in Cardinali and Nason (2017) <doi:10.1111/jtsa.12230>.

A word embeddings-based semi-supervised model for document scaling Watanabe (2020) <doi:10.1080/19312458.2020.1832976>.
    LSS allows users to analyze large and complex corpora on arbitrary dimensions with seed words exploiting efficiency of word embeddings (SVD, Glove).
    It can generate word vectors on a users-provided corpus or incorporate a pre-trained word vectors.

Constructs tables of counts and proportions out of data sets with possibility to insert tables to Excel, Word, HTML, and PDF documents. Transforms tables to data suitable for modelling. Features Gibbs sampling based log-linear (NB2) and power analyses (original by Oleksandr Ocheredko <doi:10.35566/isdsa2019c5>) for tabulated data.

A suite of functions for reading in a rate file in XML format, 
    stratify a cohort, and calculate 'SMRs' from the stratified cohort and rate file.

Implementation of the three-step approach of (latent transition) cognitive diagnosis model (CDM) with covariates. This approach can be used for single time-point situations (cross-sectional data) and multiple time-point situations (longitudinal data) to investigate how the covariates are associated with attribute mastery. For multiple time-point situations, the three-step approach of latent transition CDM with covariates allows researchers to assess changes in attribute mastery status and to evaluate the covariate effects on both the initial states and transition probabilities over time using latent logistic regression. Because stepwise approaches often yield biased estimates, correction for classification error probabilities (CEPs) is considered in this approach. The three-step approach for latent transition CDM with covariates involves the following steps: (1) fitting a CDM to the response data without covariates at each time point separately, (2) assigning examinees to latent states at each time point and computing the associated CEPs, and (3) estimating the latent transition CDM with the known CEPs and computing the regression coefficients. The method was proposed in Liang et al. (2023) <doi:10.3102/10769986231163320> and demonstrated using mental health data in Liang et al. (in press; annotated R code and data utilized in this example are available in Mendeley data) <doi:10.17632/kpjp3gnwbt.1>.
