Functions to compute distances between probability measures or any other data object than can be posed in this way, entropy measures for samples of curves, distances and depth measures for functional data, and the Generalized Mahalanobis Kernel distance for high dimensional data. For further details about the metrics please refer to Martos et al (2014) <doi:10.3233/IDA-140706>; Martos et al (2018) <doi:10.3390/e20010033>; Hernandez et al (2018, submitted); Martos et al (2018, submitted).

Designed to simplify the process of retrieving datasets from the 'Big Data PE' platform using secure token-based authentication. It provides functions for securely storing, retrieving, and managing tokens associated with specific datasets, as well as fetching and processing data using the 'httr2' package.

Data sets and functions for chi-squared Hardy-Weinberg and case-control association tests of highly polymorphic genetic data [e.g., human leukocyte antigen (HLA) data]. Performs association tests at multiple levels of polymorphism (haplotype, locus and HLA amino-acids) as described in Pappas DJ, Marin W, Hollenbach JA, Mack SJ (2016) <doi:10.1016/j.humimm.2015.12.006>. Combines rare variants to a common class to account for sparse cells in tables as described by Hollenbach JA, Mack SJ, Thomson G, Gourraud PA (2012) <doi:10.1007/978-1-61779-842-9_14>.

Implements several spatial and spatio-temporal scalable disease mapping models for high-dimensional count data using the INLA technique for approximate Bayesian inference in latent Gaussian models (Orozco-Acosta et al., 2021 <doi:10.1016/j.spasta.2021.100496>; Orozco-Acosta et al., 2023 <doi:10.1016/j.cmpb.2023.107403> and Vicente et al., 2023 <doi:10.1007/s11222-023-10263-x>). The creation and develpment of this package has been supported by Project MTM2017-82553-R (AEI/FEDER, UE) and Project PID2020-113125RB-I00/MCIN/AEI/10.13039/501100011033. It has also been partially funded by the Public University of Navarra (project PJUPNA2001).

A toolbox for analyzing and simulating large networks based on hierarchical exponential-family random graph models (HERGMs).'bigergm' implements the estimation for large networks efficiently building on the 'lighthergm' and 'hergm' packages. Moreover, the package contains tools for simulating networks with local dependence to assess the goodness-of-fit.
