RgoogleMaps - Overlays on Static Maps

Serves two purposes: (i) Provide a comfortable R interface to query the Google server for static maps, and (ii) Use the map as a background image to overlay plots within R. This requires proper coordinate scaling.

RapidPolygonLookup - POLYGON LOOKUP USING KD TREES

Facilitates efficient polygon search using kd trees. Coordinate level spatial data can be aggregated to higher geographical identities like census blocks, ZIP codes or police district boundaries. This process requires mapping each point in the given data set to a particular identity of the desired geographical hierarchy. Unless efficient data structures are used, this can be a daunting task. The operation point.in.polygon() from the package sp is computationally expensive. Here, we exploit kd-trees as efficient nearest neighbor search algorithm to dramatically reduce the effective number of polygons being searched.

rfVarImpOOB - Unbiased Variable Importance for Random Forests

Computes a novel variable importance for random forests: Impurity reduction importance scores for out-of-bag (OOB) data complementing the existing inbag Gini importance, see also <doi: 10.1080/03610926.2020.1764042>. The Gini impurities for inbag and OOB data are combined in three different ways, after which the information gain is computed at each split. This gain is aggregated for each split variable in a tree and averaged across trees.
