Overview

About

Maintained by Julian SagebielFirst published 2026-05-043 releasesCRAN page ↗

Supports simulating choice experiment data for given designs. It helps to quickly test different designs against each other and compare the performance of new models. The goal of 'simulateDCE' is to make it easy to simulate choice experiment datasets using designs from 'NGENE', 'idefix' or 'spdesign'. You have to store the design file(s) in a sub-directory and need to specify certain parameters and the utility functions for the data generating process. For more details on choice experiments see Mariel et al. (2021) doi:10.1007/978-3-030-62669-3.

Install

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

install.packages("simulateDCE", 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-simulatedce

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-simulateDCE

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-simulateDCE

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