Description
Provides Gaussian process (GP) regression tools for social science inference problems. GPs combine flexible nonparametric regression with principled uncertainty quantification: rather than committing to a single model fit, the posterior reflects lesser knowledge at the edge of or beyond the observed data, where other approaches become highly model-dependent. The package reduces user-chosen hyperparameters from three to zero and supplies convenience functions for regression discontinuity (gp_rdd()), interrupted time-series (gp_its()), and general GP fitting (gpss(), gp_train(), gp_predict()). Methods are described in Cho, Kim, and Hazlett (2026) <doi:10.1017/pan.2026.10032>.
