Overview

About

Maintained by Maani BeigyCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Provides some easy-to-use functions and classes to calculate variability measures such as coefficient of variation with confidence intervals provided with all available methods.

Changes in 1.0.4

New features

Added three Abu-Shawiesh-Akyuz-Kibria (2019) <doi:10.19139/soic.v7i2.630> population-coefficient-of-variation confidence intervals, ported from the companion Python package pycvcqv:
aak_adj_ci / method = "aak_adj" — adjusted-degrees-of-freedom CI (Eq. 21) derived from Hummel et al.'s CI for the variance; r_hat = 2n / (gamma_hat + 2n/(n-1)).
aak_ls_ci / method = "aak_ls" — large-sample CI (Eq. 26) derived from the log-transformed CI for the variance; A = (G_2 + 2n/(n-1)) / n.
aak_als_ci / method = "aak_als" — augmented-large-sample CI (Eq. 32) derived from Burch's CI for the variance using a three-term Taylor expansion of log(S^2).

Show all changes in 1.0.4Hide the rest of the changes in 1.0.4

The three new methods are exposed both through the CoefVarCI R6 class (as public *_ci() methods and via all_ci()) and through the procedural cv_versatile() function (including method = "all").
Internal kurtosis helpers (.g2_excess_kurtosis, .g2_bias_corrected, .kappa_e5, .gamma_hat_hummel) live in R/aak_helpers.R. All three CIs require at least 4 observations.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("cvcqv", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("MaaniBeigy/cvcqv")

Development version from MaaniBeigy/cvcqv. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-cvcqv

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled. We list this channel from recorded r2u download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-cvcqv

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-cvcqv

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
