About

Maintained by Tony MyersFirst published 2025-09-014 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Provides tools for Bayesian power analysis and assurance calculations using the statistical frameworks of 'brms' and 'INLA'. Includes simulation-based approaches, support for multiple decision rules (direction, threshold, ROPE), sequential designs, and visualisation helpers. Methods are based on Kruschke (2014, ISBN:9780124058880) "Doing Bayesian Data Analysis: A Tutorial with R, JAGS, and Stan", O'Hagan & Stevens (2001) doi:10.1177/0272989X0102100307 "Bayesian Assessment of Sample Size for Clinical Trials of Cost-Effectiveness", Kruschke (2018) doi:10.1177/2515245918771304 "Rejecting or Accepting Parameter Values in Bayesian Estimation", Rue et al. (2009) doi:10.1111/j.1467-9868.2008.00700.x "Approximate Bayesian inference for latent Gaussian models by using integrated nested Laplace approximations", and Bürkner (2017) doi:10.18637/jss.v080.i01 "brms: An R Package for Bayesian Multilevel Models using Stan".
