Overview

About

Maintained by Søren HøjsgaardCRAN page ↗

Estimation of generalized linear models with correlated/clustered observations by use of generalized estimating equations (GEE). See e.g. Halekoh and Højsgaard, (2005, doi:10.18637/jss.v015.i02), for details. Several types of clustering are supported, including exchangeable variance structures, AR1 structures, M-dependent, user-specified variance structures and more. The model fitting computations are performed using modified code from the 'geeM' package, while the interface and output objects have been written to resemble the 'geepack' package. The package also contains additional tools for working with and inspecting results from the 'geepack' package, e.g. a 'confint' method for 'geeglm' objects from 'geepack'.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)

install.packages("geeasy", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

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-geeasy

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-geeasy

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
