Overview

About

Maintained by Kazi Tanvir HasanFirst published 2025-04-222 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides a suite of helper functions to support Bayesian Kernel Machine Regression (BKMR) analyses in environmental health research. It enables the simulation of realistic multivariate exposure data using Multivariate Skewed Gamma distributions, estimation of distributional parameters by subgroup, and application of adaptive, data-driven thresholds for feature selection via Posterior Inclusion Probabilities (PIPs). It is especially suited for handling skewed exposure data and enhancing the interpretability of BKMR results through principled variable selection. The methodology is shown in Hasan et. al. (2025) doi:10.1101/2025.04.14.25325822.

Install

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

install.packages("simBKMRdata", 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-simbkmrdata

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-simBKMRdata

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-simBKMRdata

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