poisbinom

A Faster Implementation of the Poisson-Binomial Distribution

v1.0.2 · Jun 2, 2025 · GPL (>= 2)

Description

Provides the probability, distribution, and quantile functions and random number generator for the Poisson-Binomial distribution. This package relies on FFTW to implement the discrete Fourier transform, so that it is much faster than the existing implementation of the same algorithm in R.
