bayesGAM

The 'bayesGAM' package is designed to provide a user friendly option to fit univariate and multivariate response Generalized Additive Models (GAM) using Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) with few technical burdens. The functions in this package use 'rstan' (Stan Development Team 2020) to call 'Stan' routines that run the HMC simulations. The 'Stan' code for these models is already pre-compiled for the user. The programming formulation for models in 'bayesGAM' is designed to be familiar to analysts who fit statistical models in 'R'. Carpenter, B., Gelman, A., Hoffman, M.
