Overview

About

Maintained by Brianna HittCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗

Methods for the group testing identification problem: 1) Operating characteristics (e.g., expected number of tests) for commonly used hierarchical and array-based algorithms, and 2) Optimal testing configurations for these same algorithms. Methods for the group testing estimation problem: 1) Estimation and inference procedures for an overall prevalence, and 2) Regression modeling for commonly used hierarchical and array-based algorithms.

Changes in 1.3.4

Bug fixes

Fixed a compilation failure in src/Hierarchical.cpp caused by an ambiguous reference to span under newer C++20 toolchains, where std::span (pulled in transitively via <chrono>/<format>) collided with the unqualified arma::span from Armadillo. All uses are now explicitly qualified as arma::span. This was the cause of the package's archival from CRAN.

From NEWS.md in the release

Install

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

install.packages("binGroup2", 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("bdhitt/binGroup2")

Development version from bdhitt/binGroup2. 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-bingroup2

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-binGroup2

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-binGroup2

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.
