Overview

About

Maintained by Kelly McConvilleFirst published 2018-06-147 releasesCRAN page ↗

A set of model-assisted survey estimators and corresponding variance estimators for single stage, unequal probability, without replacement sampling designs. All of the estimators can be written as a generalized regression estimator with the Horvitz-Thompson, ratio, post-stratified, and regression estimators summarized by Sarndal et al. (1992, ISBN:978-0-387-40620-6). Two of the estimators employ a statistical learning model as the assisting model: the elastic net regression estimator, which is an extension of the lasso regression estimator given by McConville et al. (2017) doi:10.1093/jssam/smw041, and the regression tree estimator described in McConville and Toth (2017) arXiv:1712.05708. The variance estimators which approximate the joint inclusion probabilities can be found in Berger and Tille (2009) doi:10.1016/S0169-7161(08)00002-3 and the bootstrap variance estimator is presented in Mashreghi et al. (2016) doi:10.1214/16-SS113.

Install

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

install.packages("mase", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

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-mase

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-mase

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-mase

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