dream: Dynamic Relational Event Analysis and Modeling

A set of tools for relational and event analysis, including two- and one-mode network brokerage and structural measures, and helper functions optimized for relational event analysis with large datasets, including creating relational risk sets, computing network statistics, estimating relational event models, and simulating relational event sequences. For more information on relational event models, see Butts (2008) <doi:10.1111/j.1467-9531.2008.00203.x>, Lerner and Lomi (2020) <doi:10.1017/nws.2019.57>, Bianchi et al. (2024) <doi:10.1146/annurev-statistics-040722-060248>, and Butts et al. (2023) <doi:10.1017/nws.2023.9>. In terms of the structural measures in this package, see Leal (2025) <doi:10.1177/00491241251322517>, Burchard and Cornwell (2018) <doi:10.1016/j.socnet.2018.04.001>, and Fujimoto et al. (2018) <doi:10.1017/nws.2018.11>.
