Overview

About

Maintained by André LeiteCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗Issues ↗

Sequential, anytime-valid comparison of algorithms on paired losses with a practical-equivalence margin. Confidence sequences for the mean paired difference, superiority/equivalence/continue decisions, cost accounting and auditable trajectories.

Changes in 0.1.0

First CRAN release. Development history (0.0.0.9000 to 0.0.0.9002) is kept below.

comparison_design(), initialize_comparison(), update_comparison(), stopping_decision(), comparison_report(), planning_horizon(); S3 methods print, summary, tidy, glance, autoplot for seqbench_comparison.
Boundaries: "betting" (default; Waudby-Smith & Ramdas 2024), "empirical_bernstein", "hoeffding", "bernstein_declared" (declared sd_max, assumption A5) and the invalid negative control "naive_fixed", labelled as such in every output.
Internal kernels boundary_init(), boundary_update(), boundary_interval() exported for sister packages.

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("seqbench", 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("castlaboratory/seqbench")

Development version from castlaboratory/seqbench. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

# 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-seqbench

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-seqbench

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed). We list this channel from recorded autoCRAN download activity rather than from a live index of the repository, so treat it as last known rather than guaranteed.
