Power calculations are a critical component of any research study to determine the minimum sample size necessary to detect differences between multiple groups. Researchers often work with data taking the form of proportions that can be modeled with a beta distribution. Here we present an R package, BetaPASS', that perform power and sample size calculations for data following a beta distribution with comparative nonparametric output. This package allows flexibility with multiple options for link functions to fit the data and graphing functionality for visual comparisons.

This package implements Bayesian hierarchical models with flexible Gaussian process priors, focusing on Extended Latent Gaussian Models and incorporating various Gaussian process priors for Bayesian smoothing. Computations leverage finite element approximations and adaptive quadrature for efficient inference. Methods are detailed in Zhang, Stringer, Brown, and Stafford (2023) <doi:10.1177/09622802221134172>; Zhang, Stringer, Brown, and Stafford (2024) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2023.2289532>; Zhang, Brown, and Stafford (2023) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2305.09914>; and Stringer, Brown, and Stafford (2021) <doi:10.1111/biom.13329>.

Tree- and rule-based models can be bagged (<doi:10.1007/BF00058655>) using this package and their predictions equations are stored in an efficient format to reduce the model objects size and speed.

This package provides tools for factor analysis in financial and econometric settings under Beta factor models. It includes functions to simulate factor-model data with Beta-distributed idiosyncratic components (e.g., standard Beta, scaled Beta, and truncated Beta distributions) and to conduct model diagnostic assessments such as likelihood ratio tests for factor number selection and goodness-of-fit tests for Beta distribution assumptions. Estimation routines encompass maximum likelihood estimation for finite-dimensional Beta factor models, regularized Beta factor analysis for high-dimensional datasets, and shrinkage-based estimation for robust Beta factor loading recovery in noisy or incomplete data environments. The package's methodological framework is detailed in Guo G. (2023) <doi:10.1007/s00180-022-01270-z>.

And we include many options during the inference step for estimation, testing and confidence set creation. For details, see Kapelner and Tennenbaum (2026) "Improved Conditional Logistic Regression using Information in Concordant Pairs with Software" <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2602.08212>.

Fits a piecewise exponential hazard to survival data using a Hierarchical Bayesian model with an Intrinsic Conditional Autoregressive formulation for the spatial dependency in the hazard rates for each piece. This function uses Metropolis- Hastings-Green MCMC to allow the number of split points to vary and also uses Stochastic Search Variable Selection to determine what covariates drive the risk of the event. This function outputs trace plots depicting the number of split points in the hazard and the number of variables included in the hazard. The function saves all posterior quantities to the desired path.

It contains some example datasets used in bibliometrix'.

Interface to Local Data Bank ('Bank Danych Lokalnych - bdl') API <https://api.stat.gov.pl/Home/BdlApi?lang=en> with set of useful tools like quick plotting and map generating using data from bank.

Allows the user to carry out GLM on very large data sets. Data can be created using the data_frame() function and appended to the object with object$append(data); data_frame and data_matrix objects are available that allow the user to store large data on disk. The data is stored as doubles in binary format and any character columns are transformed to factors and then stored as numeric (binary) data while a look-up table is stored in a separate .meta_data file in the same folder. The data is stored in blocks and GLM regression algorithm is modified and carries out a MapReduce- like algorithm to fit the model. The functions bglm(), and summary() and bglm_predict() are available for creating and post-processing of models. The library requires Armadillo installed on your system. It may not function on windows since multi-core processing is done using mclapply() which forks R on Unix/Linux type operating systems.

To enable the search of descriptive meta data [beaSearch()]. Other features of the library exist mainly as intermediate methods or are in early stages of development. Important Note - You must have an API key to use this library. Register for a key at <http://www.bea.gov/API/signup/index.cfm> .

Under- and over-dispersed binary data are modeled using an extended Poisson process model (EPPM) appropriate for binary data. A feature of the model is that the under-dispersion relative to the binomial distribution only needs to be greater than zero, but the over-dispersion is restricted compared to other distributional models such as the beta and correlated binomials. Because of this, the examples focus on under-dispersed data and how, in combination with the beta or correlated distributions, flexible models can be fitted to data displaying both under- and over-dispersion. Using Generalized Linear Model (GLM) terminology, the functions utilize linear predictors for the probability of success and scale-factor with various link functions for p, and log link for scale-factor, to fit a variety of models relevant to areas such as bioassay. Details of the EPPM are in Faddy and Smith (2012) <doi:10.1002/bimj.201100214> and Smith and Faddy (2019) <doi:10.18637/jss.v090.i08>.
