Overview

About

Maintained by Marco EneaCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Bivariate additive categorical regression via penalized maximum likelihood. Under a multinomial framework, the method fits bivariate models where both responses are nominal, ordinal, or a mix of the two. Partial proportional odds models are supported, with flexible (non-)uniform association structures. Various logit types and parametrizations can be specified for both marginals and the association, including Dale’s model. The association structure can be regularized using polynomial-type penalty terms. Additive effects are modeled using P-splines. Standard methods such as summary(), residuals(), and predict() are available.

Install

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

install.packages("pblm", 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("MarcoEnea/pblm")

Development version from MarcoEnea/pblm. 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-pblm

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-pblm

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

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