## About

[Method](/about/licenses.md)

Bayesian Model Averaging for linear models with a wide choice of (customizable) priors. Built-in priors include coefficient priors (fixed, hyper-g and empirical priors), 5 kinds of model priors, moreover model sampling by enumeration or various MCMC approaches.

**Full description**

Bayesian Model Averaging for linear models with a wide choice of (customizable) priors. Built-in priors include coefficient priors (fixed, hyper-g and empirical priors), 5 kinds of model priors, moreover model sampling by enumeration or various MCMC approaches. Post-processing functions allow for inferring posterior inclusion and model probabilities, various moments, coefficient and predictive densities. Plotting functions available for posterior model size, MCMC convergence, predictive and coefficient densities, best models representation, BMA comparison. Also includes Bayesian normal-conjugate linear model with Zellner's g prior, and assorted methods.

#### Package

Run in R for the authors' entry:

`citation("BMS")`

The package provides a citation file, so `citation()` returns the authors' own entry.

## Downloads

[Method](/about/downloads.md)

- Downloads in the last 30 days: 1,422 (up 18.1% on the 30 days before, the better direction. It is the sum of 5 channels: CRAN, r2u, autoCRAN, conda-forge and c2d4u.)

CRAN alone: rank among CRAN packages, last 30 days: 4,604 of 26,529.

| Channel | Downloads in the last 30 days | In the total | Rank in that channel | Change |
| --- | ---: | --- | --- | --- |
| CRAN | 671 | yes | 4,604 of 26,529 | down 34.9% on the 30 days before, the worse direction |
| r2u | 73 | yes | 2,677 of 30,526 | up 181% on the 30 days before, the better direction |
| autoCRAN | 34 | yes | 1,198 of 29,130 | down 42.4% on the 30 days before, the worse direction |
| conda-forge | 631 | yes | 1,318 of 3,828 | up 988% on the 30 days before, the better direction |
| c2d4u | 13 | yes | 1,323 of 7,575 | down 58.1% on the 30 days before, the worse direction |

Other windows: [Last 90 days](/cran/BMS.md?win=90d#downloads), [Last 365 days](/cran/BMS.md?win=365d#downloads), [All time](/cran/BMS.md?win=all#downloads).

To leave channels out of the total, name them in the address, joined by dots: `?off=conda_forge.c2d4u`.

#### Over time

Downloads over time, the last 12 whole months:

| Month | CRAN | r2u | autoCRAN | conda-forge | c2d4u | Sum |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Oct 2025 | 1,459 | 5 | no figure | 109 | 14 | 1,587 |
| Nov 2025 | 1,383 | 4 | no figure | 140 | 7 | 1,534 |
| Dec 2025 | 1,766 | 12 | no figure | 205 | 12 | 1,995 |
| Jan 2026 | 676 | 6 | no figure | 122 | 11 | 815 |
| Feb 2026 | 829 | 14 | no figure | 78 | 15 | 936 |
| Mar 2026 | 793 | 10 | no figure | 97 | 19 | 919 |
| Apr 2026 | 735 | 26 | no figure | 96 | 50 | 907 |
| May 2026 | 744 | 19 | no figure | 152 | no figure | 915 |
| Jun 2026 | 721 | 34 | no figure | 83 | no figure | 838 |
| Jul 2026 | 832 | 40 | 71 | 42 | 13 | 998 |
| Aug 2026 | 759 | 27 | 49 | 59 | 32 | 926 |
| Sep 2026 | 1,054 | 73 | 59 | no figure | no figure | not whole yet |

The sum stops at Aug 2026: conda-forge has no later month on record yet.

First day on record: CRAN 10 Oct 2012, r2u 10 Aug 2022, autoCRAN 1 Jul 2026, conda-forge 11 Jul 2021, c2d4u 26 Aug 2011 (no longer updated).

Every channel here counts downloads, so the channels can be stacked and summed for one period. Each channel counts in its own way and covers a different span of years, so read a sum as a rough total, and read a rise where a channel begins as that channel starting, not as growth.

Weeks start on Monday. A first or last week or month that the channel does not cover in full is left out, so every point is a whole period.

Days with no record add nothing to their week or month. For a little-used package that is usually a day with no downloads, but it can also be a gap in collection.

1 file with no calls to or from another: `R/zzz.R`.

The whole package has 94 function names in 4 files and 109 calls between them. Most calls between files: `R/aux_inner.R` and `R/bma.R` (8 calls), `R/aux_inner.R` and `R/aux_outer.R` (5 calls), `R/aux_outer.R` and `R/bma.R` (4 calls).

Graph: the whole call graph has 75 function names that take part in a call and 109 calls between them, set out in 6 layers with callers before what they call. 19 function names have no calls and are left out. Called by the most functions: `is.bma` (22), `pmp.bma` (9), `.adjustdots` (7), `estimates.bma` (6), `.hexcode.binvec.convert` (5). Calling the most functions: `bms` (12), `pred.density` (5), `plotConv` (4), `image.bma` (4), `pmpmodel` (4).

_About complexity: Cyclomatic complexity counts the independent paths through a function: 1 is a straight line, higher is harder to test. R functions only._
