tidybayes.rethinking: Extend tidybayes to work with the rethinking package

Matthew Kay, Northwestern University, mjskay@northwestern.edu

This package extends the tidybayes R package to support models from Richard McElreath’s rethinking package.

Installation

tidybayes.rethinking is separate from the core tidybayes package because rethinking is not currently available on CRAN. Thus, tidybayes.rethinking is also not available on CRAN.

You can install tidybayes.rethinking from Github:

install.packages("devtools")     # only necessary if you don't have devtools already
devtools::install_github("mjskay/tidybayes.rethinking")

Examples

See the tidy-rethinking vignette for rethinking-specific examples, or check out the tidybayes documentation for more general examples of tidybayes usage.

Feedback and issues

I welcome feedback, suggestions, and issues! If you have found a bug in the rethinking-specific version of functions, please file it on the tidybayes.rethinking github with minimal code to reproduce the issue. For general tidybayes issues, please file bugs on the tidybayes github. If you’re not sure which it falls under, file it on one or the other and I will redirect the issue if necessary.
