Overview

About

Maintained by Jennifer F. BobbCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Implementation of a statistical approach for estimating the joint health effects of multiple concurrent exposures, as described in Bobb et al (2015) doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxu058.

Changes in 0.2.2

Bug fixes

Corrected code that produced warning length > 1 in coercion to logical
Update functions that use deprecated functions from dplyr package

Minor changes

No longer export the following functions:
CalcGroupPIPs, CalcWithinGroupPIPs, and CalcPIPs as these should typically be calculated using the function ExtractPIPs
ComputePostmeanHnew.approx and ComputePostmeanHnew.exact as these should typically be calculated using the function ComputePostmeanHnew
set_verbose_opts as this is only called internally
Expanded function documentation by adding example code

Install

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

install.packages("bkmr", 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("jenfb/bkmr")

Development version from jenfb/bkmr. 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-bkmr

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-bkmr

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-bkmr

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.
