Re: [R] Bayesian estimation with MCMC

2020-05-24 Thread Greg Snow
On CRAN there are Task Views which are moderated lists and summaries
of packages available for specific topics.  The first one
(alphabetically) is the Bayesian task view:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/views/Bayesian.html which lists many
packages for doing/learning Bayesian statistics using R.  There are
descriptions, categories, etc.  Looking through that list you will see
many packages that do McMC for Bayesian inference.

"Getting help with R" [1] describes several ways of looking for
R-related things. In particular, there is a Bayesian CRAN Task View
[2], which (as of now) has 52 occurrences of "MCMC".

Hi Christofer,
Did you try web search? I entered 'R CRAN Bayesian parameter
estimation with MCMC'
and it came back with the following which seems relevant.

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/airGR/vignettes/V02.2_param_mcmc.html

There are other search results, such as:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/deBInfer/index.html

You should note that using R does not exclude using pymc3 (or any
other Python package) from R.
The R package reticulate makes it easy to use python packages from an R session.
See https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/reticulate/index.html

HTH,
Eric

[R] Bayesian estimation with MCMC

2020-05-23 Thread Christofer Bogaso
Hi,

In python there is a package called pymc3 for Bayesian parameter
estimation with MCMC.

I am curious if there is any equivalent package available for R.

Any pointer will be highly appreciated.
