Covariate-augumented generalized factor model is designed to account for cross-modal heterogeneity, capture nonlinear dependencies among the data, incorporate additional information, and provide excellent interpretability while maintaining high computational efficiency.

The 'cmgnd' implements the constrained mixture of generalized normal distributions model, a flexible statistical framework for modelling univariate data exhibiting non-normal features such as skewness, multi-modality, and heavy tails. By imposing constraints on model parameters, the 'cmgnd' reduces estimation complexity while maintaining high descriptive power, offering an efficient solution in the presence of distributional irregularities.

Wrapper around the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) web interface. It enables programmatic and reproducible access to a wide variety of housing data from CMHC.

Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel methods (Cochran (1954) <doi:10.2307/3001616>; Mantel and Haenszel (1959) <doi:10.1093/jnci/22.4.719>; Landis et al. (1978) <doi:10.2307/1402373>) are a suite of tests applicable to categorical data. A competitor to those tests is the procedure of Nonparametric ANOVA which was initially introduced in Rayner and Best (2013) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12041>. The methodology was then extended in Rayner et al. (2015) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12113>. This package employs functions related to both methodologies and serves as an accompaniment to the book: An Introduction to Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel and Non-Parametric ANOVA. The package also contains the data sets used in that text.

Patients' Mental Health (MH) status, Substance Use (SU) status, and concurrent MH/SU status in the American/Canadian Healthcare Administrative Databases can be identified. The detection is based on given parameters of interest by clinicians including the list of  plausible ICD MH/SU codes (3/4/5 characters), the required number of visits of hospital for MH/SU , the required number of visits of service physicians for MH/SU, and the maximum time span within MH visits, within SU visits, and, between MH and SU visits.
