roll_apply

Computes rolling statistics (mean, sd, median, sum, min, max, var) over a moving window of fixed length. Supports group-wise computation and various alignments.

Fast, efficient, and versatile preprocessing and reshaping of tabular
and time-series data. Most heavy routines are implemented in 'C++' via
'Rcpp', with optional 'OpenMP' parallelization and 'SIMD' acceleration
('AVX2' / 'AVX-512') on supported hardware. The 0.1.8 release rewrites
the cleaning routines in 'C++' and delivers a 1.1–1146× speedup over
0.1.5. The 'melt()' and 'dcast()' reshaping functions achieve a
0.6×–1628.9× speedup for 'melt()' and a 1.9×–799.8× speedup for
'dcast()' relative to every one of the seven major alternatives in
the R and Python ecosystems, at every tested scale (from 1,000 to
100,000,000 rows), and produce output identical to 'reshape2',
'data.table', 'tidyr', 'pandas', 'polars', 'dask', and 'duckdb'.
Core preprocessing steps include variable deletion by missing
fraction, observation deletion by consecutive missing runs,
point-by-point weighted outlier removal via conditional extremum,
traditional percentile-based outlier removal, and linear
interpolation within short time periods. The package also provides
fast reshaping, descriptive statistics, missing-value diagnosis,
multiple imputation strategies, winsorization, several outlier
detection methods (IQR, MAD, percentile), data transformation and
standardization, categorical encoding, duplicate removal, data
validation, data quality reporting, and stratified sampling.
Feature-engineering helpers cover binning, high-correlation and
low-variance filtering, and string cleaning. Time-series tools
cover detrending, diurnal-cycle removal, rolling statistics, lag
creation, resampling, simple decomposition, day/night and season
flags, log returns, drift detection, and panel balancing.
Fit/transform-style machine-learning interfaces prevent data
leakage during preprocessing. Methods are based on, and improved
