This package provides an R interface for the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) API (see <http://www.bea.gov/API/bea_web_service_api_user_guide.htm> for more information) that serves two core purposes - 1. To Extract/Transform/Load data [beaGet()] from the BEA API as R-friendly formats in the user's work space [transformation done by default in beaGet() can be modified using optional parameters; see, too, bea2List(), bea2Tab()]. 2. 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> .

Package provides functions for estimation and inference in Bayesian quantile regression with ordinal outcomes. An ordinal model with 3 or more outcomes (labeled OR1 model) is estimated by a combination of Gibbs sampling and Metropolis-Hastings (MH) algorithm. Whereas an ordinal model with exactly 3 outcomes (labeled OR2 model) is estimated using a Gibbs sampling algorithm. The summary output presents the posterior mean, posterior standard deviation, 95% credible intervals, and the inefficiency factors along with the two model comparison measures â logarithm of marginal likelihood and the deviance information criterion (DIC). The package also provides functions for computing the covariate effects and other functions that aids either the estimation or inference in quantile ordinal models. Rahman, M. A.

This package implements Bayesian dynamic factor analysis with Stan'. Dynamic factor analysis is a dimension reduction tool for multivariate time series. bayesdfa extends conventional dynamic factor models in several ways. First, extreme events may be estimated in the latent trend by modeling process error with a student-t distribution. Second, alternative constraints (including proportions are allowed). Third, the estimated dynamic factors can be analyzed with hidden Markov models to evaluate support for latent regimes.

An aid for manipulating data associated with biomonitoring and bioassessment. Calculations include metric calculation, marking of excluded taxa, subsampling, and multimetric index calculation. Targeted communities are benthic macroinvertebrates, fish, periphyton, and coral. As described in the Revised Rapid Bioassessment Protocols (Barbour et al. 1999) <https://archive.epa.gov/water/archive/web/html/index-14.html>.

Bayesian Latent Class Analysis using several different methods.

This package provides methods for estimation and hypothesis testing of proportions in group testing designs: methods for estimating a proportion in a single population (assuming sensitivity and specificity equal to 1 in designs with equal group sizes), as well as hypothesis tests and functions for experimental design for this situation. For estimating one proportion or the difference of proportions, a number of confidence interval methods are included, which can deal with various different pool sizes. Further, regression methods are implemented for simple pooling and matrix pooling designs. Methods for identification of positive items in group testing designs: Optimal testing configurations can be found for hierarchical and array-based algorithms. Operating characteristics can be calculated for testing configurations across a wide variety of situations.

Bayesian optimal interval based on both efficacy and toxicity outcomes (BOIN-ET) design is a model-assisted oncology phase I/II trial design, aiming to establish an optimal biological dose accounting for efficacy and toxicity in the framework of dose-finding. Some extensions of BOIN-ET design are also available to allow for time-to-event efficacy and toxicity outcomes based on cumulative and pending data (time-to-event BOIN-ET: TITE-BOIN-ET), ordinal graded efficacy and toxicity outcomes (generalized BOIN-ET: gBOIN-ET), and their combination (TITE-gBOIN-ET). boinet is a package to implement the BOIN-ET design family and supports the conduct of simulation studies to assess operating characteristics of BOIN-ET, TITE-BOIN-ET, gBOIN-ET, and TITE-gBOIN-ET, where users can choose design parameters in flexible and straightforward ways depending on their own application.

Bayesian estimation and variable selection for quantile regression models.

This package implements Bayesian multiple-membership multilevel models with parameterizable weight functions via JAGS to model how lower-level units jointly shape higher-level outcomes (micro-macro link) across a range of outcome types (e.g., linear, logit, and survival models). Supports estimation and comparison of alternative aggregation mechanisms, allows weight matrices to be endogenized through parameters and covariates, and accommodates complex dependence structures that extend beyond traditional multilevel frameworks.
