Overview

About

Maintained by Cory McCartanCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Assess the sensitivity of a Bayesian model (fitted using 'Stan' via 'rstan', 'brms', or 'cmdstanr') to the specification of its likelihood and priors. Users provide a series of alternate sampling specifications, and the package uses Pareto-smoothed importance sampling (PSIS) to estimate posterior quantities of interest under each specification, without needing to refit the model. Methods are based on Vehtari, Simpson, Gelman, Yao, and Gabry (2024) doi:10.48550/arXiv.1507.02646.

Changes in 0.2.0

First CRAN submission.
Replaced fragile regex-based Stan model parser with a robust token-based parser. Supports modern Stan syntax including the array[] declaration style, new constrained types (sum_to_zero_vector, etc.), and target += statements with _lupdf/_lupmf suffixes.
Expanded test suite from 108 to 197 tests, covering parsing, log probability calculations, specification creation, weight computation, and summary functions.

Install

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

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

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

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("CoryMcCartan/adjustr")

Development version from CoryMcCartan/adjustr. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

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-adjustr

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-adjustr

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-adjustr

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.
