Interactive laboratory of Time Series based in Box-Jenkins methodology.

Includes: (i) tests and visualisations that can help the modeller explore time series components and perform decomposition; (ii) modelling shortcuts, such as functions to construct lagmatrices and seasonal dummy variables of various forms; (iii) an implementation of the Theta method; (iv) tools to facilitate the design of the forecasting process, such as ABC-XYZ analyses; and (v) "quality of life" functions, such as treating time series for trailing and leading values.

Fitting tree-structured varying coefficient models (Berger et al. (2019), <doi:10.1007/s11222-018-9804-8>). Simultaneous detection of covariates with varying coefficients and effect modifiers that induce varying coefficients if they are present.

Utilities for rapidly loading specified rows and/or columns of data from large tab-separated value (tsv) files (large: e.g. 1 GB file of 10000 x 10000 matrix). 'tsvio' is an R wrapper to 'C' code that creates an index file for the rows of the tsv file, and uses that index file to collect rows and/or columns from the tsv file without reading the whole file into memory.

An 'RStudio' add-in to visualize time series. Time series are searched in the global environment as data.frame objects with a column of type date and a column of type numeric. Interactive charts are produced using 'plotly' package.

Tools for timescale decomposition of the classic variance ratio of community ecology. Tools are as described in Zhao et al (in prep), extending commonly used methods introduced by Peterson et al (1975) <doi: 10.2307/1936306>.

Accompanies the texts Time Series for Data Science with R by Woodward, Sadler and Robertson & Applied Time Series Analysis with R, 2nd edition by Woodward, Gray, and Elliott.  It is helpful for data analysis and for time series instruction.

Characterisation of the extremal dependence structure of time series, avoiding pre-processing and filtering as done typically with peaks-over-threshold methods. It uses the conditional approach of Heffernan and Tawn (2004) <DOI:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2004.02050.x> which is very flexible in terms of extremal and asymptotic dependence structures, and Bayesian methods improve efficiency and allow for deriving measures of uncertainty. For example, the extremal index, related to the size of clusters in time, can be estimated and samples from its posterior distribution obtained.
