Overview

About

Maintained by Anestis TouloumisFirst published 2026-06-231 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Fits marginal regression models for repeated or clustered responses using generalized estimating equations (GEE). Provides ordinary GEE estimators, bias-reduced and bias-corrected GEE estimators, and Jeffreys-type penalized GEE estimators for binary, count and continuous responses. Methods are described in Touloumis (2026a) doi:10.48550/arXiv.2606.16043 and Touloumis (2026b) doi:10.48550/arXiv.2606.16058.

Install

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

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-geer

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-geer

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-geer

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