Overview

About

Maintained by Giovanni M. MarchettiFirst published 2003-09-1224 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides functions for defining mixed graphs containing three types of edges, directed, undirected and bi-directed, with possibly multiple edges. These graphs are useful because they capture fundamental independence structures in multivariate distributions and in the induced distributions after marginalization and conditioning. The package is especially concerned with Gaussian graphical models for (i) ML estimation for directed acyclic graphs, undirected and bi-directed graphs and ancestral graph models (ii) testing several conditional independencies (iii) checking global identification of DAG Gaussian models with one latent variable (iv) testing Markov equivalences and generating Markov equivalent graphs of specific types.

Install

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

install.packages("ggm", 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-ggm

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-ggm

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

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