rio - A Swiss-Army Knife for Data I/O

Streamlined data import and export by making assumptions that the user is probably willing to make: 'import()' and 'export()' determine the data format from the file extension, reasonable defaults are used for data import and export, web-based import is natively supported (including from SSL/HTTPS), compressed files can be read directly, and fast import packages are used where appropriate. An additional convenience function, 'convert()', provides a simple method for converting between file types.

rang - Reconstructing Reproducible R Computational Environments

Resolve the dependency graph of R packages at a specific time point based on the information from various 'R-hub' web services <https://blog.r-hub.io/>. The dependency graph can then be used to reconstruct the R computational environment with 'Rocker' <https://rocker-project.org>.

oolong - Create Validation Tests for Automated Content Analysis

Intended to create standard human-in-the-loop validity tests for typical automated content analysis such as topic modeling and dictionary-based methods. This package offers a standard workflow with functions to prepare, administer and evaluate a human-in-the-loop validity test. This package provides functions for validating topic models using word intrusion, topic intrusion (Chang et al. 2009, <https://papers.nips.cc/paper/3700-reading-tea-leaves-how-humans-interpret-topic-models>) and word set intrusion (Ying et al. 2021) <doi:10.1017/pan.2021.33> tests. This package also provides functions for generating gold-standard data which are useful for validating dictionary-based methods. The default settings of all generated tests match those suggested in Chang et al. (2009) and Song et al. (2020) <doi:10.1080/10584609.2020.1723752>.

webtrackR - Preprocessing and Analyzing Web Tracking Data

Data structures and methods to work with web tracking data. The functions cover data preprocessing steps, enriching web tracking data with external information and methods for the analysis of digital behavior as used in several academic papers (e.g., Clemm von Hohenberg et al., 2023 <doi:10.17605/OSF.IO/M3U9P>; Stier et al., 2022 <doi:10.1017/S0003055421001222>).

grafzahl - Supervised Machine Learning for Textual Data Using Transformers and 'Quanteda'

Duct tape the 'quanteda' ecosystem (Benoit et al., 2018) <doi:10.21105/joss.00774> to modern Transformer-based text classification models (Wolf et al., 2020) <doi:10.18653/v1/2020.emnlp-demos.6>, in order to facilitate supervised machine learning for textual data. This package mimics the behaviors of 'quanteda.textmodels' and provides a function to setup the 'Python' environment to use the pretrained models from 'Hugging Face' <https://huggingface.co/>. More information: <doi:10.5117/CCR2023.1.003.CHAN>.
