DiscreteDLM-overviewR Documentation

Fitting Discrete Distributed Lag Models with Variable Selection via MCMC

Description

DiscreteDLM contains functionality for fitting and visualising Bayesian Distributed Lag Models (DLMs) when the response variable is either count or binary. More specifically, this package contains an implementation of Bayesian quantile binary regression (for binary response data) and negative-binomial regression (for count response data). Additionally, these functions implement variable uncertainty inference for each predictor. Multinomial regression is not implemented.

While these functions can be applied to any standard regression problem, the package was set up with DLMs in mind; the functions therein allow for an easy-to-use pipeline to go from defining the DLM, fitting the DLM, and visualising the results.
