wacolors - Colorblind-Friendly Palettes from Washington State

Color palettes taken from the landscapes and cities of Washington state. Colors were extracted from a set of photographs, and then combined to form a set of continuous and discrete palettes. Continuous palettes were designed to be perceptually uniform, while discrete palettes were chosen to maximize contrast at several different levels of overall brightness and saturation. Each palette has been evaluated to ensure colors are distinguishable by colorblind people.

adjustr - Stan Model Adjustments and Sensitivity Analyses using Importance Sampling

Functions to help assess the sensitivity of a Bayesian model (fitted using the rstan pakcage) to the specification of its likelihood and priors. Users provide a series of alternate sampling specifications, and the package uses Pareto-smoothed importance sampling to estimate posterior quantities of interest under each specification.

nbhdmodel - Neighborhood Modeling and Analysis

Functionality for fitting neighborhood models of McCartan, Brown, and Imai <arXiv:2110.14014>. The core methodology is described in the paper and can be implemented with any tool that can fit generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs). However, some of the preprocessing necessary to set up the GLMM can be onerous. In addition to providing a specialized GLMM routine, this package provides several preprocessing functions that, while not completely general, should be useful for others performing these kinds of analyses.
