About

Maintained by Yueqi ShenFirst published 2021-05-1012 releasesCRAN page ↗

Bayesian power/type I error calculation and model fitting using the power prior and the normalized power prior for generalized linear models. Detailed examples of applying the package are available at doi:10.32614/RJ-2023-016. Models for time-to-event outcomes are implemented in the R package 'BayesPPDSurv'. The Bayesian clinical trial design methodology is described in Chen et al. (2011) doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2011.01561.x, and Psioda and Ibrahim (2019) doi:10.1093/biostatistics/kxy009. The normalized power prior is described in Duan et al. (2006) doi:10.1002/env.752 and Ibrahim et al. (2015) doi:10.1002/sim.6728.

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-bayesppd

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-BayesPPD

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-BayesPPD

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
