About

Maintained by John NiehausFirst published 2022-02-108 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Maximum likelihood estimation of copula-based zero-inflated (and non-inflated) Poisson and negative binomial count models, based on the article doi:10.18637/jss.v109.i01. Supports Frank and Gaussian copulas. Allows for mixed margins (e.g., one margin Poisson, the other zero-inflated negative binomial), and several marginal link functions. Built-in methods for publication-quality tables using 'texreg', post-estimation diagnostics using 'DHARMa', and testing for marginal zero-modification via doi:10.1177/0962280217749991. For information on copula regression for count data, see Genest and Nešlehová (2007) doi:10.1017/S0515036100014963 as well as Nikoloulopoulos (2013) doi:10.1007/978-3-642-35407-6_11.

Install

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

install.packages("bizicount", 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("jmniehaus/bizicount")

Development version from jmniehaus/bizicount. 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-bizicount

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

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-bizicount

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-bizicount

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
