About

Maintained by Björn AnderssonFirst published 2023-08-251 releasesCRAN page ↗

Approximate marginal maximum likelihood estimation of multidimensional latent variable models via adaptive quadrature or Laplace approximations to the integrals in the likelihood function, as presented for confirmatory factor analysis models in Jin, S., Noh, M., and Lee, Y. (2018) doi:10.1080/10705511.2017.1403287, for item response theory models in Andersson, B., and Xin, T. (2021) doi:10.3102/1076998620945199, and for generalized linear latent variable models in Andersson, B., Jin, S., and Zhang, M. (2023) doi:10.1016/j.csda.2023.107710. Models implemented include the generalized partial credit model, the graded response model, and generalized linear latent variable models for Poisson, negative-binomial and normal distributions. Supports a combination of binary, ordinal, count and continuous observed variables and multiple group models.

Install

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

install.packages("lamle", 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-lamle

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-lamle

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-lamle

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