Overview

About

Maintained by Henrik SingmannFirst published 2020-07-1011 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides the probability density function (PDF), cumulative distribution function (CDF), the first-order and second-order partial derivatives of the PDF, and a fitting function for the diffusion decision model (DDM; e.g., Ratcliff & McKoon, 2008, doi:10.1162/neco.2008.12-06-420) with across-trial variability in the drift rate. Because the PDF, its partial derivatives, and the CDF of the DDM both contain an infinite sum, they need to be approximated. 'fddm' implements all published approximations (Navarro & Fuss, 2009, doi:10.1016/j.jmp.2009.02.003; Gondan, Blurton, & Kesselmeier, 2014, doi:10.1016/j.jmp.2014.05.002; Blurton, Kesselmeier, & Gondan, 2017, doi:10.1016/j.jmp.2016.11.003; Hartmann & Klauer, 2021, doi:10.1016/j.jmp.2021.102550) plus new approximations. All approximations are implemented purely in 'C++' providing faster speed than existing packages.

Install

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

install.packages("fddm", 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("rtdists/fddm")

Development version from rtdists/fddm. 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-fddm

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-fddm

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-fddm

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