Perform fundamental analyses using Bayesian parametric and non-parametric inference (regression, anova, 1 and 2 sample inference, non-parametric tests, etc.). (Practically) no Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is used; all exact finite sample inference is completed via closed form solutions or else through posterior sampling automated to ensure precision in interval estimate bounds. Diagnostic plots for model assessment, and key inferential quantities (point and interval estimates, probability of direction, region of practical equivalence, and Bayes factors) and model visualizations are provided. Bayes factors are computed either by the Savage Dickey ratio given in Dickey (1971) <doi:10.1214/aoms/1177693507> or by Chib's method as given in xxx. Interpretations are from Kass and Raftery (1995) <doi:10.1080/01621459.1995.10476572>. ROPE bounds are based on discussions in Kruschke (2018) <doi:10.1177/2515245918771304>. Methods for determining the number of posterior samples required are described in Doss et al. (2014) <doi:10.1214/14-EJS957>.

This package provides tools for statistical analysis using the binscatter methods developed by Cattaneo, Crump, Farrell and Feng (2024a) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1902.09608>, Cattaneo, Crump, Farrell and Feng (2024b) <https://nppackages.github.io/references/Cattaneo-Crump-Farrell-Feng_2024_NonlinearBinscatter.pdf> and Cattaneo, Crump, Farrell and Feng (2024c) <doi:10.48550/arXiv.1902.09615>. Binscatter provides a flexible way of describing the relationship between two variables based on partitioning/binning of the independent variable of interest. binsreg(), binsqreg() and binsglm() implement binscatter least squares regression, quantile regression and generalized linear regression respectively, with particular focus on constructing binned scatter plots. They also implement robust (pointwise and uniform) inference of regression functions and derivatives thereof. binstest() implements hypothesis testing procedures for parametric functional forms of and nonparametric shape restrictions on the regression function. binspwc() implements hypothesis testing procedures for pairwise group comparison of binscatter estimators. binsregselect() implements data-driven procedures for selecting the number of bins for binscatter estimation. All the commands allow for covariate adjustment, smoothness restrictions and clustering.

This package provides functions to fit, via Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm, the Bessel and Beta regressions to a data set with a bounded continuous response variable. The Bessel regression is a new and robust approach proposed in the literature. The EM version for the well known Beta regression is another major contribution of this package. See details in the references Barreto-Souza, Mayrink and Simas (2022) <doi:10.1111/anzs.12354> and Barreto-Souza, Mayrink and Simas (2020) <arXiv:2003.05157>.

Quantitative methods for benefit-risk analysis help to condense complex decisions into a univariate metric describing the overall benefit relative to risk. One approach is to use the multi-criteria decision analysis framework (MCDA), as in Mussen, Salek, and Walker (2007) <doi:10.1002/pds.1435>. Bayesian benefit-risk analysis incorporates uncertainty through posterior distributions which are inputs to the benefit-risk framework. The brisk package provides functions to assist with Bayesian benefit-risk analyses, such as MCDA. Users input posterior samples, utility functions, weights, and the package outputs quantitative benefit-risk scores. The posterior of the benefit-risk scores for each group can be compared. Some plotting capabilities are also included.

This package contains functions mainly focused to plotting bivariate maps.
