We provide a language for formulating a range of state space models with response densities within the exponential family. The described methodology is implemented in the R-package sspir. A state space model is specified similarly to a generalized linear model in R, and then the time-varying...

deal is a software package for use with R. It includes several methods for analysing data using Bayesian networks with variables of discrete and/or continuous types but restricted to conditionally Gaussian networks. Construction of priors for network parameters is supported and their parameters...

In this paper we present the R package gRain for propagation in graphical independence networks (for which Bayesian networks is a special instance). The paper includes a description of the theory behind the computations. The main part of the paper is an illustration of how to use the package....

SASweave is a collection of scripts that allow one to embed SAS code into a LATEX document, and automatically incorporate the results as well. SASweave is patterned after Sweave, which does the same thing for code written in R. In fact, a document may contain both SAS and R code. Besides the...

This paper describes the core features of the R package geepack, which implements the generalized estimating equations (GEE) approach for fitting marginal generalized linear models to clustered data. Clustered data arise in many applications such as longitudinal data and repeated measures. The...

The mimR package for graphical modelling in R is introduced. We present some facilities of mimR, namely those relating specifying models, editing models, fitting models and doing model search. We also discuss the entities needed for flexible graphical modelling in terms of an ob ject structure....

Context specific interaction models is a class of interaction models for contingency tables in which interaction terms are allowed to vanish in specific contexts given by the levels of sets of variables. Such restrictions can entail conditional independencies which only hold for some values of...
