SSBtools - Statistics Norway's Miscellaneous Tools

Functions used by other packages from Statistics Norway are gathered. General data manipulation functions, algorithms for statistical disclosure control (Langsrud, 2024) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-69651-0_6> and functions for hierarchical computations by sparse model matrices are included (Langsrud, 2023) <doi:10.32614/RJ-2023-088>.

GaussSuppression - Tabular Data Suppression using Gaussian Elimination

A statistical disclosure control tool to protect tables by suppression using the Gaussian elimination secondary suppression algorithm (Langsrud, 2024) <doi:10.1007/978-3-031-69651-0_6>. A suggestion is to start by working with functions SuppressSmallCounts() and SuppressDominantCells(). These functions use primary suppression functions for the minimum frequency rule and the dominance rule, respectively. Novel functionality for suppression of disclosive cells is also included. General primary suppression functions can be supplied as input to the general working horse function, GaussSuppressionFromData(). Suppressed frequencies can be replaced by synthetic decimal numbers as described in Langsrud (2019) <doi:10.1007/s11222-018-9848-9>.

SmallCountRounding - Small Count Rounding of Tabular Data

A statistical disclosure control tool to protect frequency tables in cases where small values are sensitive. The function PLSrounding() performs small count rounding of necessary inner cells so that all small frequencies of cross-classifications to be published (publishable cells) are rounded. This is equivalent to changing micro data since frequencies of unique combinations are changed. Thus, additivity and consistency are guaranteed. The methodology is described in Langsrud and Heldal (2018) <https://www.researchgate.net/publication/327768398_An_Algorithm_for_Small_Count_Rounding_of_Tabular_Data>.

easySdcTable - Easy Interface to the Statistical Disclosure Control Package 'sdcTable' Extended with Own Implementation of 'GaussSuppression'

The main function, ProtectTable(), performs table suppression according to a frequency rule with a data set as the only required input. Within this function, protectTable(), protect_linked_tables() or runArgusBatchFile() in package 'sdcTable' is called. Lists of level-hierarchy (parameter 'dimList') and other required input to these functions are created automatically. The suppression method Gauss (default) is implemented independently of 'sdcTable'. The function, PTgui(), starts a graphical user interface based on the 'shiny' package.

CalibrateSSB - Weighting and Estimation for Panel Data with Non-Response

Functions to calculate weights, estimates of changes and corresponding variance estimates for panel data with non-response. Partially overlapping samples are handled. Initially, weights are calculated by linear calibration. By default, the survey package is used for this purpose. It is also possible to use ReGenesees, which can be installed from <https://github.com/DiegoZardetto/ReGenesees>. Variances of linear combinations (changes and averages) and ratios are calculated from a covariance matrix based on residuals according to the calibration model. The methodology was presented at the conference, The Use of R in Official Statistics, and is described in Langsrud (2016) <http://www.revistadestatistica.ro/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/RRS2_2016_A021.pdf>.
