Overview

About

Maintained by Shikhar TyagiCRAN page ↗

Implements Bayesian quantile regression for count data using the jittering technique for discrete data smoothing and an asymmetric Laplace distribution likelihood. Supports adaptive variable selection via a random-bridge penalty with a beta prior on the power parameter, as well as fixed-bridge and Lasso penalties. Utilizes Markov chain Monte Carlo with Gibbs sampling and adaptive Metropolis-Hastings algorithms for posterior inference, provides Gelman-Rubin convergence diagnostics, and predicts conditional quantiles for count responses. Methodology and applications are based on the following key references: Luo, Zhou, Hu, and Li (2026, Journal of Mathematics, 2026:1543166, doi:10.1155/jom/1543166), Koenker and Bassett (1978, Econometrica, 46, 33-50, doi:10.2307/1913643), Machado and Santos Silva (2005, Journal of the American Statistical Association, 100, 1226-1237, doi:10.1198/016214505000000330), Yu and Moyeed (2001, Statistics and Probability Letters, 54, 437-447, doi:10.1016/S0167-7152(01)00124-9), Polson, Scott, and Windle (2014, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B, 76, 713-733, doi:10.1111/rssb.12042), Park and Casella (2008, Journal of the American Statistical Association, 103, 681-686, doi:10.1198/016214508000000337), and Roberts and Rosenthal (2009, Journal of Computational and Graphical Statistics, 18, 349-367, doi:10.1198/jcgs.2009.06134).

Install

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

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

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

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-bayesqrcount

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-BayesQRCount

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-BayesQRCount

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.
