Spatial estimation of a prevalence surface
    or a relative risks surface, using data from a Demographic and Health
    Survey (DHS) or an analog survey, see Larmarange et al. (2011)

Functions to simulate point prevalence studies (PPSs) of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and to convert prevalence to incidence in steady state setups. 
    Companion package to the preprint Willrich et al., From prevalence to incidence - a new approach in the hospital setting;
    <doi:10.1101/554725> , where methods are explained in detail.

Estimate False Discovery Rates (FDRs) for importance metrics from
    random forest runs.

Preparing a scanner data set for price dynamics calculations (data selecting, data classification, data matching, data filtering). Computing bilateral and multilateral indexes. For details on these methods see: Diewert and Fox (2020)

Price comparisons within or between countries provide an overall measure of the relative difference in prices, often denoted as price levels. This package provides index number methods for such price comparisons (e.g., The World Bank, 2011, <doi:10.1596/978-0-8213-9728-2>). Moreover, it contains functions for sampling and characterizing price data.

Functions to aid in micro and macro economic analysis and handling of price and
    currency data. Includes extraction of relevant inflation and exchange rate data from World Bank
    API, data cleaning/parsing, and standardisation. Inflation adjustment
    calculations as found in Principles of Macroeconomics by Gregory Mankiw et al (2014). Current
    and historical end of day exchange rates for 171 currencies from the European Central Bank
