Calculate Bayesian marginal effects, average marginal effects, and marginal coefficients (also called population averaged coefficients) for models fit using the brms package including fixed effects, mixed effects, and location scale models. These are based on marginal predictions that integrate out random effects if necessary (see for example <doi:10.1186/s12874-015-0046-6> and <doi:10.1111/biom.12707>).

Easy estimation of Bayesian multilevel mediation models with Stan.

Implementations in cpp of the BayesProject algorithm (see G. Hahn, P. Fearnhead, I.A. Eckley (2020) <doi:10.1007/s11222-020-09966-2>) which implements a fast approach to compute a projection direction for multivariate changepoint detection, as well as the sum-cusum and max-cusum methods, and a wild binary segmentation wrapper for all algorithms.

Computes Bayesian posterior distributions of predictions, marginal effects, and differences of marginal effects for various generalized linear models. Importantly, the posteriors are on the mean (response) scale, allowing for more natural interpretation than summaries on the link scale. Also, predictions and marginal effects of the count probabilities for Poisson and negative binomial models can be computed.

This package provides functions for analyzing and visualizing complex macroevolutionary dynamics on phylogenetic trees. It is a companion package to the command line program BAMM (Bayesian Analysis of Macroevolutionary Mixtures) and is entirely oriented towards the analysis, interpretation, and visualization of evolutionary rates. Functionality includes visualization of rate shifts on phylogenies, estimating evolutionary rates through time, comparing posterior distributions of evolutionary rates across clades, comparing diversification models using Bayes factors, and more.

Spike and slab regression with a variety of residual error distributions corresponding to Gaussian, Student T, probit, logit, SVM, and a few others. Spike and slab regression is Bayesian regression with prior distributions containing a point mass at zero. The posterior updates the amount of mass on this point, leading to a posterior distribution that is actually sparse, in the sense that if you sample from it many coefficients are actually zeros. Sampling from this posterior distribution is an elegant way to handle Bayesian variable selection and model averaging. See <DOI:10.1504/IJMMNO.2014.059942> for an explanation of the Gaussian case.

This package provides tools to model and forecast multivariate time series including Bayesian Vector heterogeneous autoregressive (VHAR) model by Kim & Baek (2023) (<doi:10.1080/00949655.2023.2281644>). bvhar can model Vector Autoregressive (VAR), VHAR, Bayesian VAR (BVAR), and Bayesian VHAR (BVHAR) models.

This package implements Bayesian brain mapping with population-derived priors, including the original model described in Mejia et al. (2020) <doi:10.1080/01621459.2019.1679638>, the model with spatial priors described in Mejia et al. (2022) <doi:10.1080/10618600.2022.2104289>, and the model with population-derived priors on functional connectivity described in Mejia et al. (2025) <doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxaf022>. Population-derived priors are based on templates representing established brain network maps, for example derived from independent component analysis (ICA), parcellations, or other methods. Model estimation is based on expectation-maximization or variational Bayes algorithms. Includes direct support for CIFTI', GIFTI', and NIFTI neuroimaging file formats.

This package provides a framework for building interactive dashboards and document-based reports. Underlying data manipulation and visualization is possible using a web-based point and click user interface.

Bayesian networks provide an intuitive framework for probabilistic reasoning and its graphical nature can be interpreted quite clearly. Graph based methods of machine learning are becoming more popular because they offer a richer model of knowledge that can be understood by a human in a graphical format. The bnviewer is an R Package that allows the interactive visualization of Bayesian Networks. The aim of this package is to improve the Bayesian Networks visualization over the basic and static views offered by existing packages.

This package provides a collection of box-geometry model (BGM) files for the Atlantis ecosystem model. Atlantis is a deterministic, biogeochemical, whole-of-ecosystem model (see <http://atlantis.cmar.csiro.au/> for more information).

Shows statistics about bytes contained in a file as a circle graph of deviations from mean in sigma increments. The function can be useful for statistically analyze the content of files in a glimpse: text files are shown as a green centered crown, compressed and encrypted files should be shown as equally distributed variations with a very low CV (sigma/mean), and other types of files can be classified between these two categories depending on their text vs binary content, which can be useful to quickly determine how information is stored inside them (databases, multimedia files, etc).

This package contains functions mainly focused to plotting bivariate maps.

This package provides functions for Bayesian Data Analysis, with datasets from the book "Bayesian data Analysis (second edition)" by Gelman, Carlin, Stern and Rubin. Not all datasets yet, hopefully completed soon.

This package provides tools for building Rescorla-Wagner Models for Two-Alternative Forced Choice tasks, commonly employed in psychological research. Most concepts and ideas within this R package are referenced from Sutton and Barto (2018) <ISBN:9780262039246>. The package allows for the intuitive definition of RL models using simple if-else statements and three basic models built into this R package are referenced from Niv et al. (2012) <doi:10.1523/JNEUROSCI.5498-10.2012>. Our approach to constructing and evaluating these computational models is informed by the guidelines proposed in Wilson & Collins (2019) <doi:10.7554/eLife.49547>. Example datasets included with the package are sourced from the work of Mason et al. (2024) <doi:10.3758/s13423-023-02415-x>.

Fit Bayesian multivariate GARCH models using Stan for full Bayesian inference. Generate (weighted) forecasts for means, variances (volatility) and correlations. Currently DCC(P,Q), CCC(P,Q), pdBEKK(P,Q), and BEKK(P,Q) parameterizations are implemented, based either on a multivariate gaussian normal or student-t distribution. DCC and CCC models are based on Engle (2002) <doi:10.1198/073500102288618487> and Bollerslev (1990). The BEKK parameterization follows Engle and Kroner (1995) <doi:10.1017/S0266466600009063> while the pdBEKK as well as the estimation approach for this package is described in Rast et al. (2020) <doi:10.31234/osf.io/j57pk>. The fitted models contain rstan objects and can be examined with rstan functions.

This package provides a new class of Bayesian meta-analysis models that incorporates a model for internal and external validity bias. In this way, it is possible to combine studies of diverse quality and different types. For example, we can combine the results of randomized control trials (RCTs) with the results of observational studies (OS).

Allows to compare the goodness of fit of Benford's and Blondeau Da Silva's digit distributions in a dataset. It is used to check whether the data distribution is consistent with theoretical distributions highlighted by Blondeau Da Silva or not (through the dat.distr() function): this ideal theoretical distribution must be at least approximately followed by the data for the use of Blondeau Da Silva's model to be well-founded. It also enables to plot histograms of digit distributions, both observed in the dataset and given by the two theoretical approaches (with the digit.ditr() function). Finally, it proposes to quantify the goodness of fit via Pearson's chi-squared test (with the chi2() function).

This package provides fast and efficient procedures for Bayesian analysis of Structural Vector Autoregressions. This package estimates a wide range of models, including homo-, heteroskedastic, and non-normal specifications. Structural models can be identified by adjustable exclusion restrictions, time-varying volatility, or non-normality. They all include a flexible three-level equation-specific local-global hierarchical prior distribution for the estimated level of shrinkage for autoregressive and structural parameters. Additionally, the package facilitates predictive and structural analyses such as impulse responses, forecast error variance and historical decompositions, forecasting, verification of heteroskedasticity, non-normality, and hypotheses on autoregressive parameters, as well as analyses of structural shocks, volatilities, and fitted values. Beautiful plots, informative summary functions, and extensive documentation including the vignette by Woźniak (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2410.15090> complement all this. The implemented techniques align closely with those presented in Lütkepohl, Shang, Uzeda, & Woźniak (2024) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.2404.11057>, Lütkepohl & Woźniak (2020) <doi:10.1016/j.jedc.2020.103862>, and Song & Woźniak (2021) <doi:10.1093/acrefore/9780190625979.013.174>. The bsvars package is aligned regarding objects, workflows, and code structure with the R package bsvarSIGNs by Wang & Woźniak (2024) <doi:10.32614/CRAN.package.bsvarSIGNs>, and they constitute an integrated toolset.

Generate the James Blinding Index, as described in James et al (1996) <https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8841652/> and the Bang Blinding Index, as described in Bang et al (2004) <https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15020033/>. These are measures to assess whether or not satisfactory blinding has been maintained in a randomized, controlled, clinical trial. These can be generated for trial subjects, research coordinators and principal investigators, based upon standardized questionnaires that have been administered, to assess whether or not they can correctly guess to which treatment arm (e.g. placebo or treatment) subjects were assigned at randomization.

Bumblebee colonies grow during worker production, then decline after switching to production of reproductive individuals (drones and gynes). This package provides tools for modeling and visualizing this pattern by identifying a switchpoint with a growth rate before and a decline rate after the switchpoint. The mathematical models fit by bumbl are described in Crone and Williams (2016) <doi:10.1111/ele.12581>.
