Overview

About
Maintained by Nicole HillCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Website ↗Issues ↗Declared funder: Poisson Consulting

Functions to 'numericise' 'R' objects (coerce to numeric objects), summarise 'MCMC' (Monte Carlo Markov Chain) samples and calculate deviance residuals as well as 'R' translations of some 'BUGS' (Bayesian Using Gibbs Sampling), 'JAGS' (Just Another Gibbs Sampler), 'STAN' and 'TMB' (Template Model Builder) functions.

Changes in 0.10.0
  • Add probability_direction() and directional_information() (#106).
  • Add functions to calculate s-values and information from vectors of probabilities: p2svalue() and p2info() (#122).
  • Add functions to calculate the Region of Practical Equivalence (ROPE) and credible intervals: xtr_ci(), xtr_ci_eti(), xtr_ci_hdi(), xtr_rope() (#110).
  • Add skew-lognormal distribution family (dskewlnorm(), pskewlnorm(), qskewlnorm(), rskewlnorm(), ran_skewlnorm(), sens_skewlnorm(), quant_skewlnorm(), dev_skewlnorm(), res_skewlnorm(), log_lik_skewlnorm(), prob_skewlnorm()) (#127).
  • Add skeptical argument to pvalue(), svalue(), and directional_information(), defaulting to TRUE (#133).
  • Advance deprecation of as_list_unnamed(), pextreme(), and sextreme() from soft-deprecated to warnings (#140).
