Robust Clustering of Time Series (RCTS) has the functionality to cluster time series using both the classical and the robust interactive fixed effects framework. 
  The classical framework is developed in Ando & Bai (2017) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2016.1195743>. The implementation within this package excludes the SCAD-penalty on the estimations of beta. 
  This robust framework is developed in Boudt & Heyndels (2022) <doi:10.1016/j.ecosta.2022.01.002> and is made robust against different kinds of outliers.
  The algorithm iteratively updates beta (the coefficients of the observable variables), group membership, and the latent factors (which can be common and/or group-specific) along
  with their loadings. The number of groups and factors can be estimated if they are unknown.

Provides simplified methods for managing classic Rubik's cubes and many other modifications of it (such as NxNxN size cubes, void cubes and 8-coloured cubes - so called octa cubes). Includes functions of handling special syntax for managing such cubes; and different approach to plotting 3D cubes without using external libraries (for example 'OpenGL').

A wrapper for 'libcurl' <https://curl.se/libcurl/>
	Provides functions to allow one to compose general HTTP requests
        and provides convenient functions to fetch URIs, get & post
        forms, etc. and process the results returned by the Web server.
        This provides a great deal of control over the HTTP/FTP/...
        connection and the form of the request while providing a
        higher-level interface than is available just using R socket
        connections.  Additionally, the underlying implementation is
        robust and extensive, supporting FTP/FTPS/TFTP (uploads and
        downloads), SSL/HTTPS, telnet, dict, ldap, and also supports
        cookies, redirects, authentication, etc.

An R interface for processing concentration-response datasets using Curvep, a response noise filtering algorithm. The algorithm was described in the publications (Sedykh A et al. (2011) <doi:10.1289/ehp.1002476> and Sedykh A (2016) <doi:10.1007/978-1-4939-6346-1_14>). Other parametric fitting approaches (e.g., Hill equation) are also adopted for ease of comparison. 3-parameter Hill equation from 'tcpl' package (Filer D et al.,  <doi:10.1093/bioinformatics/btw680>) and 4-parameter Hill equation from Curve Class2 approach (Wang Y et al.,  <doi:10.2174/1875397301004010057>) are available. Also, methods for calculating the confidence interval around the activity metrics are also provided. The methods are based on the bootstrap approach to simulate the datasets (Hsieh J-H et al. <doi:10.1093/toxsci/kfy258>). The simulated datasets can be used to derive the baseline noise threshold in an assay endpoint. This threshold is critical in the toxicological studies to derive the point-of-departure (POD).
