Package: nimble
Title: MCMC, Particle Filtering, and Programmable Hierarchical Modeling
Description: A system for writing hierarchical statistical models largely
    compatible with 'BUGS' and 'JAGS', writing nimbleFunctions to operate models
    and do basic R-style math, and compiling both models and nimbleFunctions via
    custom-generated C++. 'NIMBLE' includes default methods for MCMC, Monte Carlo
    Expectation Maximization, and some other tools. The nimbleFunction system makes
    it easy to do things like implement new MCMC samplers from R, customize the
    assignment of samplers to different parts of a model from R, and compile the
    new samplers automatically via C++ alongside the samplers 'NIMBLE' provides.
    'NIMBLE' extends the 'BUGS'/'JAGS' language by making it extensible: New
    distributions and functions can be added, including as calls to external
    compiled code. Although most people think of MCMC as the main goal of the
    'BUGS'/'JAGS' language for writing models, one can use 'NIMBLE' for writing
    arbitrary other kinds of model-generic algorithms as well. A full User Manual is
    available at <https://r-nimble.org>.

Note: For convenience, the package includes the necessary header files
        for the Eigen distribution. (This is all that is needed to use
        that functionality.) You can use an alternative installation of
        Eigen on your system or the one we provide. The license for the
        Eigen code is very permissive and allows us to distribute it
        with this package. See <http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/index.php?
        title=Main_Page> and also the License section on that page.
