In rstap: Spatial Temporal Aggregated Predictor Models via 'stan'

rstap

Spatial-Temporal Aggregated Predictor Models Implemented in R

This is an R package that fits spatial temporal aggregated predictor models using Stan (via the rstan package) for the back-end estimation. The primary target audience is researchers interested in the effect of built environment features (BEFs) on human health, though other applications are possible. See the package's website for an introduction.
