Overview

About

Maintained by Xue LiCRAN page ↗

An implementation of Bayesian Aggregation in Genomic Applications (BiG), where BiG is a Bayesian latent variable approach to aggregation of partial and top ranked lists (Li et. al in preparation). It provides implementations for three different prior setups for variance/standard deviation parameters: diffuse inverse gamma (IG), diffuse uniform, half-t.

Install

R (source archive)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/BiG/BiG_0.1.0.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "BiG_0.1.0.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.1.0) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.
